Do you have a question for us ?
Looking for your next Port Aransas Vacation can be confusing, especially after you have visited lots of different websites as they all do things slightly differently. On this page we try to answer the questions we get asked the most. Hopefully, this will make it a little easier for you.
If you still have questions then head on over to our Contact Us page where we show you the many ways you can get in touch with us. We answer the phones from 10am until 8pm and often answer emails and messages after those hours too.
YES.... We love dogs, we do not have a weight limit but we do ask that you bring no more than 2 per room and of course they must be perfectly behaved. They must ALWAYS be leashed when outdoors and never left alone. There is a non refundable charge of $50 per dog per stay. It's not a nightly charge, its just per stay.
When you make a booking we require a deposit that is equal to 25% of the total for the stay. So, if the total for your reservation was $1000 we would need a deposit of $250. Your Balance is due when you check in with us.
When you booked and paid your deposit you will receive a confirmation will then be under the terms of our cancellation policy. If you need to cancel your stay with us for whatever reason you may do so up to 14 days before your check-in date. You would get your deposit amount back minus $30. If you cancel within 14 days of the date you are supposed to check in then you do not receive any refund. Also, changes to a reservation are not permitted if you are checking in within the next 14 days. We have different terms if you are one of our many 'Winter Texan' monthly guests which you will be asked to agree to before your booking is confirmed.
Nope, Sorry. The only pets we allow at The Beachcomber are Dogs.
You can only smoke in the outside areas, no smoking of ANY kind is permitted inside the property and smoke must not be allowed to enter through open doors or windows etc. In accordance with our terms and conditions there is a fine for smoking inside.
Yes, we have a nice area near the Swimming Pool that has some BBQ grills and picnic tables. You can also bring your own grill and set it up in this area.
You need to go to our office on the day of check in. Please take a look at the
LOCATION Page for all the details of how to find us.
Check in time is 4pm but we do start checking people in from 2pm onwards if your room is ready. If its not ready we can give you a call when it is. Check out time is 11am.
Don't panic, give us a call and let us know what time we can expect you. If you have stayed with us before we can usually let you go directly to your room when you arrive. If its your first time staying with us we will let you know what you need to do so that you dont have to sleep in your car.
When you come to check in we take CASH and all the major credit and debit cards but NOT American Express (AMEX). There is no extra charge for using a credit or debit card when you pay your balance at check in but if you wish to split the payment over more than one card there will be a $5 charge for that per card.
You can do that. However, if you want to use a credit card over the phone we have to charge an extra 4% to cover the extra amount we get charged by the credit card company for processing a card that is 'not present', if you want to mail in a check in advance to avoid paying the extra 4% then we accept checks up 2 weeks prior to your arrival date. Please mail checks to our office and make sure you put your reservation ID on it so we know who's it is. Remember - if you pay your balance when you check in there is no extra charge, unless you split payments with other people in your group.
We know things come up from time to time and you have to cancel your trip. Thats why we have a relaxed cancellation policy compared to many other places. However, we are running a business and all reasons to cancel are treated equally. That keeps it fair to everyone. Just remember, when you make a reservation with us you are agreeing to the terms and conditions. If there are any world events happening that may impact your stay with us (such as Hurricanes or alien invasions) we use the front page of our website and facebook to keep everyone up to date.
We know that a Port Aransas Vacation can be expensive, with that being said, we want to do everything we can to make your stay more affordable. We do this by keeping our rates as low as we can and not charging you extra fees. We run special offers in the quieter times of the season and sometimes offer a healthy discount if you show up in town and we have something available for you.
The only extra charges you will have to pay are TAX (13%) and if you bring a Dog there will be a charge for that.
