What Our Guests Say About Us R FazioMarch 9, 2025 I stayed in late 2024 for the weekend and throughly loved the property. The owners were outstanding, helpful and accommodating. Jodi BourneFebruary 22, 2025 My hubby and I enjoyed a perfect quiet getaway at Barefoot Bungalow at Sanddollar Sity and it was FANTASTIC. This place is a gem. Quiet, laid back, fun and funky vibe. You are literally in the dunes and less than a minute walk to the water. The view from the deck was amazing. We were there during a full moon and watching it rise above the water and over the dunes was super cool - lots of photo ops. The beds were comfy, the shower was hot, and the kitchen was a great size for a few meals. We watched live sports on the Smart TV and had no problems (we were worried about WIFI being so close to the beach.) One of the things we loved best was that it was owned by a local family who truly care about their guest's comfort and the area. When my husband's truck battery was dead, we called to ask for a local tow service and the owner headed over immediately to jump us off, although before he could arrive another guest helped us. We will come back, again and again - already have reservations for Sandfest! Troy BenolkenFebruary 22, 2025 The pictures of this property just don’t do it justice! The fact that you have to literally drive on the beach to get to this property should say enough. Our younger children were awestruck by how close the ocean was. The views and atmosphere were absolutely amazing. We did encounter a few hiccups with our room that were beyond the owner’s control. However, the caretakers, Ashley and Keith, were incredible! They addressed the issue immediately and made sure we were well accommodated. From start to finish, they were on top of everything—answering all of our quirky questions and handling any concerns with care. I highly recommend Sandollar Sity for its stunning views and the outstanding service provided by the caretakers. We will absolutely stay again, beautiful scenery, location and service, why wouldn't we! Sharon McGeheeFebruary 18, 2025 Just spend 2 days at The Sandollar. The room was very comfortable and we had everything we needed. Nestled between the sand dunes so it was hiden away from the rest of the beach which was perfect. The view was amazing which is exactly what my husband and I wanted. Highly recommend you check out this gem. This weekend it was a bit chilly but so thankful for a place so close to the water. The owners are wonderful and we enjoyed chatting with them. We will definitely be back. Dan McGeheeFebruary 16, 2025 Love this place! Right on the beach. A balcony with a great view of the waves. In a secluded nook in the dunes. Comfortable rooms and a great host/hostess to ensure your stay was good. The only reason for 4 stars on the room is because the bathroom may be a little small for some people. A tip: I would suggest bringing a larger mug than the coffee cups provided because the coffee-pod machine overfilled the cups on the lowest setting. I would highly recommend Sandollar Sity for anyone wanting a cozy stay on the beach in Port Aransas! Danielle CurryJanuary 3, 2025 My husband and two boys (5 and 7) stayed at Sandollar Sity for New Years and had the best time! The owners were incredibly helpful and quick to respond to any and all questions. The rooms were comfy and had everything we needed, but the views and location are what make this place really special. Walk out the door and you are literally on the beach! Since you can only access it from the sand, it feels secluded and peaceful, and truly “off the beaten path”, but it is still minutes from everything. Rent a golf cart from Island Carts (another local family-owned business) and cruise the shoreline or drive around town. 10/10 highly recommend. We will be back for sure! Ironhead SallyDecember 20, 2024 Cozy, home feeling right on the beach! Nestled between the dunes, this place has the best views. The kitchenette was well stocked and we were able to cook breakfast and enjoy the morning sunrise over the water without having to even leave the room. Private patios, comfy beds, easy to get to. We didnt bring a 4wheel drive vehicle but its the equivalent of a city block of driving on the packed beach road, no problems for any vehicle IMO. Perfect beach for shell hunting, close to everything. We loved our stay and especially how secluded it was, not your average crowded beach resort. Definitely a laid back feel. Highly recommend especially for the price! Cant wait to come back John CoatesNovember 12, 2024 We had a great vacation. Beach access is wonderful. Ashley did a great job to make sure we had everything we needed. Would highly recommend Jason WolfingtonOctober 8, 2024 The perfect spot for a beach weekend. Walk a few steps to the beach or sit on your balcony and feel the breeze while you listen to the waves. This location was perfect. Tyler McLaughlinAugust 28, 2024 Everything about this place is magical. I discovered it walking along the beach in Port Aransas, TX last October. Everything was amazing! Thank you for all your hospitality & consideration throughout.Load more
