I would NOT recommend this place to anyone. I will start with the staff was very nice. They want to be helpful, but it is like the staff of the Titanic, helpful but the ship still sank.There are 5 buildings here 3 are new.. but 1 and 2 are old and gross. We walked in to our room and there is a huge, dirty, loud fan in the living room as the AC unit ...

DIRTY, AWFUL SERVICE - DO NOT STAY HERE!!!!
By johnny, 05/11/09
I just want to inform all who plan to stay in Port Aransas to stay away from Beachgate!!! A terrible experience all together. First of all, the room wasn't ready at the check-in time. I had to wait around with a car full of bags for 2 hours. The sheets had stains of mud, rust, and an orange substance. After informing the management about the ...

GREAT LOCATION & Value!
By mhans142, 01/12/09
When I reserved this room I was a little leery due to other negative reviews. After arriving and checking in, all these worries went away. This location is older, and it isn't the Hilton....but me and the family couldn't hear the waves from the Hilton, nor sleep 7 people for $95.00 a night! I have two 7 year olds and they absolutely ...

Beachgate New Management
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/05/09
What a great place. We had such a great time. Right on the beach and a wonderful heated pool and spa. Seems like alot of the older comments were negative, but in talking with them on the phone when booking, it just sounded like it would be a good place so we gave it a try. Come to find out, they replaced the property manager and most of the ...
I loved being on the beach. Beachgate is right next to the shoreline, which made for some great views. The room was wonderful and more than I expected. I would like to make a scheduled trip there and actually stay and use the full service kitchen! There is plenty of room in each condo to have more than 2 guests. The one I stayed in had a bedroom, ...

What a mess!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/27/08
Our room was dirty and the sheets had spots on them. We had to use our own blanket to put on top of the sheets so we could sleep. One day no hot water. Dirt under the bed and only received clean towels one day. My friend next door she had to wait to have her room cleaned but once it was cleaned guess what no tiolet paper. I think the management ...

Do Not Waste Your Money
By BeachLover, 08/15/08
I was quite disappointed in our stay at Beachgate. We chose to stay here based on some of our family’s recommendations from being here under the previous management and absolutely loving it. Little did I know that the management changed in 2006 and things completely went downhill. Read the reviews before and after 2006 to see the ...

Do Not Stay Here
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/24/08
Our family loves to vacation at Port A and has been to the Beachgate three times, but we will never stay here again. We have always stayed in BGII. The rooms have been newly painted and new artwork is on the walls, but the same problems exist. The units are very old and have not been well maintained. We had a three bedroom suite and only the ...

We DO NOT want to go back.......
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/15/08
We liked the view. We've been going to Beachgate for the past 20 years and up until 2 years ago we really liked the place. Last year, our unit was dirty when we arrived, the back door to the balcony (overlooking the beach) was stuck closed, the electrical outlet in the kitchen shocked me, literally. The kitchen was not stocked as advertised. ...

used to be better!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/03/08
The beachgate has been a classic vacation spot for us; we have been to Port Aransas seven times and have stayed at the Beachgate all seven. The location is excellent and many of the accomodations include kitchens or kitchenettes. However, beginning in about 2006 new management took over and things have deteriorated badly since then. On our ...
