Best place to stay to stay in Port A after fishing all night!
Been staying there for over 10 years now and if you’re a fisherman, you’ll love their screened in fish cleaning station out back. We do!

So if you need to get away for some R&R “therapy”, you’d better check out Plantation Suites for their:
Sleep “therapy” (saw them putting in new mattresses in all the rooms last month);
Breakfast “therapy” (a good, full hot breakfast with extra options); and,
my favorite, Hot tub “therapy” (and I mean HOT! My compliments to the pool maintenance guy)

Thanks guys for all you do keeping such high standards.

Last week Plantation Suites received a Five Star review from one of our guests. We are always ecstatic to receive a great review, but this time it came from someone who we don’t often hear from.  Last week a little boy was so happy with his time at Plantation Suites & Port Aransas that he took the time to write us a thank you letter!  The letter reads:

To: The Hotel

This is a great hotel it’s perfect and we will come back and every time we come to port Aransas Texas we will stay at this hotel. Thank you.

From: Caleb

Thank you Caleb! We’re so grateful for the opportunity to see Plantation Suites through your eyes & we look forward to seeing you again soon!

Lodging Host Hotel Corporation launched our semi-annual Lock In earlier this week and we had representatives from each of our seven properties in attendance. Plantation Suites in Port Aransas, TX was our gracious host. Lodging Host was able to make use of Plantation’s board room, luxurious facilities, & close proximity to the beach & area activities.

This year’s lock in was an overwhelming success. In addition to going over company policy & meeting with new partners, Lodging Host enjoyed the sites and made full use of the comfort and amenities that Plantation Suites had to offer. We would like to thank all of our properties for making this a successful Lock In as we made plans for a wonderful remainder of the year!

We had the pleasure of staying in one of the Condo suites & very much enjoyed it. 2 bedrooms, kitchen, living area, 2 bathrooms and a personal balcony, fully furnished. Most comfortable beds and blankets. Definitely gave us the feeling of home. With 3 teens & a baby with us it sure made our stay easy & comfortable. Hospitality was great. Everything clean.
Thank you so much for a great stay. We will be staying again.
