Our family stayed here over the weekend and we had such an amazing stay. From the spacious RV spot, to the refreshing pool, very clean restrooms and shower, to the convenience of the Laundry room for our quick weekend wash and lastly super friendly and helpful staff. We can't say enough about this place. I high recommend you to stay here. We will be back and can't wait to book again. - Cheers from the Palacios Family

Nice tight cozy and clean RV park. Rigs are packed tightly but people are in Port A for the beach. Close to everything. Well maintained and families seemed to enjoy the pool.
Response from the owner: Thanks for taking the time to leave a review. We do have a greatlocation, right in town..and only 2.5 blocks to the beach. Port Aransas has grown up around us for sure..we have been a family-owned park for 25 years, so personally maintaining the grounds, bath house, pool, laundry, etc. is important to us. I like that you used the word “cozy”..yes..we are a park with 45 RV sites, easy to watch the kids when they play, get to the pool, etc. We loveour guests and thank you for your business!
Great location. Very attentive staff and owners. Grounds and facilities are always neat, clean and very well kept.10/10 recommend
Response from the owner: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We look forward to your return in the future. Safe travels until we meet again.
We stayed here for a month with my son and granddaughter. Can’t say enough good things.Everyone who worked there was friendly and nice.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much! We are fortunate to have wonderful employees and guests. We are glad everyone had a good time. We look forward to seeing you again in the future.
This is a super clean resort that is close to the beach! We stayed here 5 nights based on a friend's recommendation and they were 100% correct. The staff and owners are phenomenal! They were beyond accommodating as we dealt with a break down that required our motor home to remain several days past our checkout date. We will stay here again!
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. We are sorry about the breakdown. We were happy to helpIn any way possible. We lookForward to seeing you in the future. Please thank your friends on our behalffor the recommendation, we appreciate it!
A gem of a little RV park. I'll take this over those monster places. Very clean, quiet. Close to the beach👍👍
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for taking the timeto leave a review. We are a familyowned small business and truly appreciate your business. We look forward to seeing you again in the future!
The staff at this rv park were great. Everyone was very friendly. The grounds were well maintained and kept up. This location had us at a 3 min drive to beach access 1a. We would highly recommend! There is a nice size pool on property as well as full bath/showers and laundry room. Rv lot has WiFi.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for the nice review. We appreciate your business and look forward to seeing you in the future. We are a family-owned park and are thankful for our loyal guests and employees. Thank you again!
Drove by looking for a spot for my sister. This property is clean, grass is beautiful. There is more space between RVs. Small and quaint park.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. We hope you come stay with us soon.
Great RV park!! Amenities are terrific. Wish park rules were better enforced. Almost got hit by a kid on an electric bicycle while walking to the bathroom!
Response from the owner: Thank you! We always look forward to your stay!
This is my favorite place to go for building Sandcastles! They are super close to the beach and the staff is super friendly and helpful. I can't wait to get back!
Response from the owner: Thank you for leaving us a review! We look forward to your return. Safe travels and have a wonderful Summer.

Response from the owner: Thanks Steven, we appreciate your business and look forward to your return. Safe travels and thanks again!
We love this place!! Workers are very friendly and customer service is the best, always! Everytime we visit Port A, this is the place we stay with our RV everytime! So close to the beach and town attractions. We recommend this place 1000%!!!
Response from the owner: Thank you Heather for taking the time to leave such a nice review. We look forward to seeing ya'll again in the future. Until then, safe travels!
Last year we were newbies to the “RV World” and didn’t know what to expect. And after setting up at surfside, I’ll tell you what! The cleanliness and hospitality is by far the best for me. So we came back again this year as well. The owner takes pride in her park and it shows. We wont stay anywhere else in Port A, this is the place for us.
Response from the owner: Thank you Adrian for the review. We look forward to seeing you again in August. You have a wonderfulfamily, thank you for being great guests!
This is True Pride in ownership and pride in staff! You can tell the love and care that goes into this Park. It’s pristine! It has a great location close to sandcastle beach access where you can rent beach chairs and umbrellas. Golf cart / bike rentals are in walking distance. Some reviews mention too many rules but instead think of it as a consistent quality check for cleanliness, safety, and consideration for other guests. If that’s not what you value then try something else - but for me this is a fantastic RV park.
Response from the owner: Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, your time and effort means a lot to us! We look forward to seeing you again in the future. We are a small family owned business and appreciate you supporting us and Port Aransas. We look forward to seeing you in the future. Have a wonderful Summer Season and safe travels!
I can’t say enough amazing things about this place! My husband and I were traveling with our 5 y.o. From Houston hauling our 5th wheel and trailer with a golf cart this weekend (Memorial Day weekend). Our truck’s transmission went out in the ferry line. We called asking if they knew any tow companies or anyone on site who could help us. They immediately started asking around and gave us some names. We were able to run into two groups of amazing humans who helped us with the golf cart and trailer and the 5th wheel without asking for anything in return and refusing to accept anything we could offer (besides cold beer and some amazing venison backstrap). The property is clean, well maintained and the pool is perfect for after the beach! Thank you Victoria and Rosie for all of your kindness, compassion and assistance! We will definitely come back and recommend to all!
Response from the owner: Than you for leaving such a nice review. We felt so bad for ya'll when you said you were just on the other side of the ferry, when all of the sudden, you were broken down. We are so glad you received the help you needed to be able to complete your vacation. We hope to see you again in the future.
Response from the owner: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate you staying with us at Surfside and for supporting our beautiful city of Port Aransas. Safe travels and hope to see you again in the future.
Cute, quaint, quiet camp ground close to the beach in the heart of Port A. It's a 10 min walk or 2 min drive to get to the beach. Be sure to purchase a beach parking pass, if you want to park on the beach. We liked that the campground was smaller, and not full. The hosts were friendly and helpful. Our dogs appreciated the grass. If you're visiting between May & October, pack mosquito spray. We didn't and got eaten alive. That was the only issue we had. Overall great experience!
Response from the owner: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. The mosquitos were bad this last week..sometimes we have them and sometimes we don’t. All depends on mother nature..but typically being so close to the beach we have wind that keeps the mosquitos away…this week there was virtually no wind and it was super humid…and of course dependent on recent rain, etc. We appreciate you supporting small family-owned business and Port Aransas and hope to see you again in the future. Thank you for the kind review, safe travels.
Level concrete pads, reliable utilities, and just a couple blocks from the beach, so waaay less sand but still walkably close. They have some common need items in the lil store, and there is also a RV parts store within a couple blocks, just incase you need anything else.
Response from the owner: Thanks for the nice review! We are thankful that there is a RV parts store and mobile service up the street, especially in Port Aransas! We hopeyou come back and stay with us in the future. Thank you for supporting smallbusiness and Port Aransas. Safe travels!
Response from the owner: Thank you for taking the timeto leave a review. We notice that you stayed during Sandfest. Thank you for supporting small businessand the Texas Sandfest. We hopeto see you again in the future. Safe travels!
Awesome location, friendly staff, small & quaint.
Response from the owner: We appreciate your review, thank you somuch! We hope youvisit us again in the future. Until then, safe travels!
We visited this RV park over the weekend. They were quick to respond and have a spot ready for us. The park is clean, the amenities are great. We really enjoyed our time there. We plan to return! We’ll be back!
Response from the owner: Thank you so much Vivian, we really appreciate that you took the time to leave such a nice review. We look forward to seeing you in the future! Until then, enjoy your upcoming Summer season and safe travels!
Centrally located within walking distance of the beach and local shopping, this gem of a place ticks off all the boxes for an enjoyable stay. Well kept facilities and grounds, a welcoming atomsphere, and a great community of Winter Texans that return year after year are a testiment to why this place is so worth staying at. We'll definitely be back!
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a nice review. We appreciate our wonderful guests. See you next year and until then, safe travels!
Nice park in a good location. Very clean. Pool is great. Only negative is the spaces are pretty tight but that's standard for Port A.
Response from the owner: Thank you for the wonderful review. We appreciate you taking the time to post. We look forward to your return.
Very clean & convenient. Quiet & well kept!
Response from the owner: Thank you Craig for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate you supporting Port Aransas and smallbusiness. We look forward to seeing you again in the future, untilthen safe travels.
Be greated by Roise and her friendly smile. Small family owned RV park. Great winter Texan park. We have made a family here and love our time at the park. It can be tight getting into your lot, doable and you have help. Winter Texans are a community at this park and care about each other. Winter Texans at this resort love meeting new people. Unike some Winter resorts, there are no strangers. Owner and her staff are friendly.
Response from the owner: Thank you somuch for the nice review. We have wonderful guests!
It was a great week at this park. The owners are so friendly. The other people staying in the park were so very nice. Very well maintained, clean and very nice. The spots have plenty of room. It is very close to the beach. Just a wonderful stay for a week. We will be back.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for the nice review.Ya’ll were a pleasure to host. Safe travels, we look forward to seeing you again on the future!
Can’t beat the family friendly atmosphere, paired with the fantastic location. We felt very safe with our toddler and 5 month old baby here and loved that it was smaller than the giant Pioneer park.The owner can be seen around the premises and you can tell she takes pride in the property. Even the dumpster is enclosed inside a mural painted storage type box. It’s the little things!We will be back next year, no doubt.Thank you, Surfside for your wonderful hospitality!Update as of 3/21/2024:We still continue to frequent Surfside. We have been here each year at least once a year. It is still perfect for our little family, which is now consists of 6 and 3 year old girls. They continue to impress us with their customer service, prompt email or phone replies, and overall beach friendliness. They have customers for life with us!
Response from the owner: Thank you, hope to see you again soon!
Wonderful campground close to the beach! We have stayed here the last nine years as winter Texans! We love how friendly everyone is here. Many activities and potlucks during our stay. Clean laundry and shower house. This is our home away from home!!!
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for leaving us such a nice review. We appreciate your business and enjoy our Winter Texans, which we consider family. We look forward to welcoming you back year after year! Thank you for choosing Port Aransas and Surfside RV & Resort as your Winter destination! 🙂
Quaint, private owned park, lovely pads, clean nice showers, laundry room, hot tub and pool, community center and planned group functions communication was great, friendly great staff, wish my stay had been longer will definitely reserve and stay here again. Nestled in a nice location in Port A convient to beach and shops and restaurants.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate all of your nice comments. We hope to see you in the future. Thank you for visiting Port Aransas and supporting our small family-owned business. Safe travels 🙂
Great RV resort
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for the review. Hope to see you again someday. safe travels!
Pretty tight spots, hard to get in. Great grass though once you're in there! Good showers!
Response from the owner: Thank you for the great review..we do try to keep the grass we have in good order and well maintained. We do have some pretty good bathroom facilities ❤️…book ahead because some sites are more accommodating than others.
Surfside Rv & Resort is the best RV Park in Port Aransas. With it's manicured landscaping, clean and spacious bath house, large rec hall, and beautiful pool/hot tub area, it's the perfect in-town location for RVers. The park is within walking distance to the beach (5 min) shopping, fast food, liquor stores, dining and more!
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for the nice review!
Response from the owner: Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We appreciate it very much.
We have been coming to Surfside R.V. & Resort for years. Our favorite place to stay in Port A. Very clean, well manicured sites, privately owned, great staff. We love it here. Very reasonably priced.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for leaving such a nice review. We love our returning guests and are thankful that we have been able to keep Surfside RV privately owned. Thank you for your business!
We stayed for 5 nights, in our camper. We were so happy that the bathrooms next to the pool were nice and clean, as well as washer/dryer to keep up with our towels. The pool was warm, but it was still nice when you want a break from the saltwater! The area was well kept and maintained. The location is great as well, very close to restaurants, shops, and the beach! We will definitely be going back!
Response from the owner: Thank you for the nice review. We look forward to seeing you again in the future. We just ordered a sprayer for the pool that is supposed to help in keepingthe water cooler, we will see…hopeit works! Thanks again!
Our second year staying here. Nice place family owned. The pool wasn't as clean as I would like but they were busy and it's the middle of summer so keeping up with everything can be tough. Won't stop us from booking next year.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for the nice review. Look forward to seeing you in the future. Check out our promo codes for August and September…and October starts Fall rates too and is a GREAT time to be in Port Aransas. The Annular Solar Eclipse on Oct. 14th can be seen in Port Aransas.
This is a very nice and clean rv park. The spaces are close and no shade trees, but nice and well maintaied. They are concrete spots with a small strip of grass for a "yard". The pool, bathrooms and laundry were all nice and clean. We will definitely stay here again if we come back to Port A!!
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for the great review. We look forward to seeing you in the future.
Didn’t want to write this review as we don’t want anyone to take our winter Texan spot 😉. Walk to the beach and restaurants. Bicycle or golf cart all over Port A. Wonderful owners and staff
Response from the owner: Thank you somuch for the great review! We look forward to seeing you this Winter! With this heat…WE CAN’T WAIT! ❤️
Tight squeeze but really nice. I love the size. it's small about 40 units. grass is nice you don't feel like you are on top of each other. Bathhouse was clean except leading up to july 4th it's been a mess. pool is nice. laundry with change machine makes it ez. Long ish walk to beach or tiny drive. Golf carts allowed on this part of the island. Con. You don't have room for two cars in front of your rv there is some overflow parking but if you have several drivers that's an issue. Overall I would love to come back , my husband says it's it's not his 1st choice. Also we had booked and paid and then got s call that rates had changed and were asked for more money. It was too late to find another place so that was crummy.
Response from the owner: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. With the July 4th Holiday, we have been cleaning restrooms day and night. We are glad that you got to see them in great condition, but are sorry you caught them at a bad time in between attention. We welcome guests to contact us anytime, our cell phone numbers are on the front door and the office is open from 9AM - 4 PM. We set out rates in April, after we receive property taxes and insurance renewal information, rates are subject to change without notice due to this timeline. Although it is not ideal, it is stated in all of our literature, the terms and conditions that guests read and accept, and on - line. Our daily rates increased $4.00 a night, and our weekly rates increased $20.00 a week. Our rates are competitive and below most other parks in Port Aransas, with the exception of one or two. We want to keep the park family owned and not have to sell out to corporate entities, thank you so much for your patronage, as it helps us keep our rates as reasonable as possible and stay a true family - owned small business. We appreciate the fact that you liked the small park atmosphere, the fact that we are only .03 mile to the beach. have nice grass, and a nice pool area. The coast can be a brutal environment, we work hard to keep it as nice as possible. We appreciate your business and look forward to seeing you in the future. October is the best time of year to visit, lower rates, great weather, and less people for sure. Check out the fireworks tonight at Robert's Point park if still in town, they start at around 9:00 P.M. Safe travels and Happy 4th of July.
The RV sites are extremely tight with no room for error and only a single vehicle. The staff are friendly and the pool, hot tub, and office area are very nice. Decent location tucked away enough to be comfortable but near the beach, shopping, and restaurants.
Response from the owner: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and choosing Surfside RV. We hope to see you again in the future.
The Restroom & Shower facilities where awesome. They pool was great as well!
Response from the owner: Thank you for taking the time to leave such a nice review. Thank you for staying with us, we hope to see you again in the future.
Response from the owner: Thank you for the review, we would love to here more about your stay. We appreciate the review.
This is our 2nd time staying here, this time for 30 days. We love it here! It's quiet & clean, and only a few blocks from the beach. We had an issue with the electric hookup and they came promptly on a Sunday morning and fixed it.
Response from the owner: Thank you so very much for the great review!
Great place, great people. We looked at other rv resorts that had higher ratings and were not near as nice as this place. We look forward to making lots of more memories here.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for the great review. We look forward to seeing you again in the future. Thank you for supporting our family- owned small business!
