This was our first time staying at Cinnamon Shores, and now we can't imagine staying anywhere else when visiting Port Aransas! The homes are so nice, the beach is fantastic, the amenities (basketball, pickleball, fitness center, swimming pools, fishing ponds, and much more) provided our family--including a 13-year-old son and 16-year-old daughter--with fun activities, and the staff took great care of us. In fact, we enjoyed it so much, we went to the real estate office and now are working towards a goal of buying a place here. In the meantime, we'll be coming back as often as possible and renting when we do. My family and I give Cinnamon Shores our highest recommendation! read more

Cinnamon Shore - My son enjoying fishing on one of the many lakes at Cinnamon Shores South! - Vacation Rentals Near Me - Port Aransas, Texas

Absolutely horrible experience. I've been coming here since 2009 and have always loved staying here, but things have completely gone downhill. My family owned a home here for over 10 years, and honestly, after this experience, I'm relieved we no longer do. It's disgusting to see how loyal residents and vacationers are treated now. Cinnamon Shore seems to think they can do whatever they want and treat people like second-class citizens. To make matters worse, the house we stayed in had cockroaches, which was already unacceptable considering the cost of staying here. Larry and Juan from courtesy patrol then approached and harassed my family over an investigation that none of us were involved in. During the interaction, they were taking photos of me and my family, which made us extremely uncomfortable. When I confronted them about it, Larry responded with, "You're not that sweet, sweetheart," before they became even more disrespectful and unprofessional, eventually calling me and my sister "f***ing ret*rds." What makes this even more disturbing is that I have the entire interaction recorded. I have special needs family members, so hearing that kind of language was beyond offensive and unacceptable. No guest, resident, or homeowner should ever be treated this way, especially by staff or security personnel who are supposed to make people feel safe. After being a loyal guest and homeowner family since 2009, I am honestly shocked and disgusted by the level of harassment, disrespect, and overall experience my family had. read more

The restaurants Stouts,Dylan's pizza , and the coffee shop was over priced and not that great. The waiting in line for 45 min for a $4.50 cream is ridiculous with one person in trailer. We got charged for housekeeper cleaning and there was food and dust under our bed and no cable in master bedroom. We stayed at condo 203 Social Circle for 3 days. Its expensive to rent there anywhwere there too and the rental golf cart was extra over $562.28 Friday noon to Monday morning 10am renting from their premises. read more

The good: House is lovely. Furniture is beautiful and beds are comfortable. Community is nice. Ice was provided when ice maker not functional The bad: icemaker did not work. Trash service awakened us at 330am. Amenities are pricey ($75 for 2 chairs and umbrella. $10 root beer float) Art work in living room is upside down Low water pressure in kitchen kitchen kitchen Water isn't hot enough in bathroom For a 1 time experience. It was relaxing. read more

The first thing I have to say is the house was perfectly cleaned when we arrived (RENTAL La Ola 261 BE). There is nothing worse than arriving for a vacation to a dirty house. Not a problem here - Bathroom & Kitchen were spotless. There was no sand anywhere that we noticed, and for a beach house that is saying something. The best part of this particular house was there was a barn door in the living room area to keep our little ones off the stairs. The house was comfortable, including the beds & pillows. It was well stocked with everything we needed/wanted, even coffee filters. Speaking of coffee, the machine had both K-cup and drip. Good sized TV's in all but one bedroom. Common room areas had a lot of seating, inside and outside. However, for the size of the house, it would have been nice to have had just a few more chairs/seating. We ordered beach chairs & umbrellas on the beach in advance, and had no issues. They were timely setup and ready on the days we requested. As was the bonfire. We ordered a golf cart in advance and it was at the house upon our arrival. It did not have enough seats, so we tried to order another one, but they were sold out for the weekend. My suggestion is to plan ahead or you might not be able to get one. Not many cons, some were house specific and not for Cinnamon Shores overall (and were reported upon leaving). Such as, the dishwasher did not seem to clean completely, grill was broken and difficult to use, water dripping out of exhaust, and a few other things. At least some of these should have been reported by the cleaning staff and repaired. The family pool (only one we went to), was nice. However, as the "family" pool we expected a small pool area for small kids, but there isn't one. There is a small slide, but that is about it for children. The playground was also disappointing. There are things to do in the evening, such as movie night. There is a concession stand, but prepare to wait in a long line. As for the restaurants in the community, PLAN AHEAD and make a reservation well in advance! They are very small considering how many people are in Cinnamon Shore during peak season, especially inside seating. One of the two restaurants makes you leave a message to make a reservation. I did that, and they never called me back. At the other restaurant, because we waited to make our reservation when we arrived the day before, we were only able to get outside seating. On the day of the reservation, when we arrived we were told we had to take our food to go because it was going to rain. The staff was NOT accommodating. So we left - then it did NOT rain at all! This was the most disappointing part of the trip. We enjoyed Cinnamon Shores, and we would be happy to plan a trip there again in the future. read more

We just absolutely love it here. It looks like it's out of a movie. It is totally kid friendly and that makes it easy. I feel like the staff is very on top of everything here and we really appreciate that. And everyone is just so friendly! We can't wait to make this place our new tradition. read more

loved our time at Cinnamon Shore. this was our first stay at Cinnamon Shore but our Sixth time in Port A. We will not stay anyplace else but Cinnamon Shore after this trip. The vibe is focused on family and fun. Port A is a quick 5 minute drive if you're looking for clubs, noise and chaos but within the Cinnamon Shore community it's family friendly fun and convenient luxury steps away from all living quarters. Shout out to the cart guys, you are a dynamic group that made our trip!Bon fires, umbrella beach chair set up, great food and shopping. it really does not get better. read more

Five stars simply aren't enough for our incredible week at Cinnamon Shore! Our house, Cinnamon Sunset, was a dream - perfectly situated next to the pool and café, which our girls absolutely loved. The beach boardwalk was just a short, easy walk away, making beach trips a breeze. The in-house elevator at Cinnamon Sunset was a fantastic feature, making arrivals and departures so much smoother and, crucially, allowing us to plan future trips with my parents who will now be able to join us. We made the most of the onsite pickleball and basketball, and the fishing pond right behind our house was a delightful bonus (and yes, the fish were biting!). And kudos for the H-E-B delivery service - so convenient! This is our new go-to for a perfect Port Aransas getaway. read more

House and staff were amazing. Very welcoming. I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 because the playscape for the kids is not covered. It's way too hot to use in the Texas heat. The slides and climbing wall grips were extremely hot to the touch so we couldn't use. read more

This was our first time visiting and we absolutely loved it! The staff were amazing and extremely helpful. The food at Stouts and Dylan's was fantastic. The beach was clean and the water was beautiful. We were shocked since we came the day after "spring break". The home was stocked with all essentials, including extra beach towels, kitchen utensils, and extra blankets! We are already planning our next trip back! read more

Cinnamon Shore - Vacation Rentals Near Me - Port Aransas, Texas

I give cinnamon shores 4 stars. I do recommend visiting cinnamon shores. Great place for families to enjoy a vacation. The upside to cinnamon shores is obviously the beach. It's directly adjacent to the beach making the beach fun and easy to access. Cinnamon shores has a beautiful Neibor hood with lakes, play places for kids, games, pools and amazingly clean and accessible restrooms throughout. The only reason for the 4 stars is that there is not enough food options. There is one coffee shop that serves a breakfast bagel sandwich and great coffee but when it's the only place around. Good luck getting your order. I sat in line for 30 minutes ordered the food and was told a 20 min wait for the food. I waited another 45 minutes then was told they gave my food to the wrong people and I was asked to wait another 20 min. I did since there were non other options. Then I was told sorry we stopped serving breakfast and never received my order. There is a pizza place for lunch or dinner but it's not anything to write home about. Especially since the food is not cheap. Then there's a seafood place and when we called they said they're booked out the whole summer. So we only got to eat the pizza place or we were forced to drive out of cinnamon shores to get food. Let me tell you cinnamon shores is beautiful. The rest of the city is not. So paying big price to stay somewhere nice then being forced to leave and go somewhere that's not nice is a bummer. Hope this helps people plan and prepare to bring their own food with them. read more

Pros: Incredible atmosphere! Great restaurants on property Amazing coffee shop with food Cute store We LOVED the pools Beach access was great VRBO was cute Great activities throughout the week Cons: We had issues with renting umbrellas. The staff was not in communication with each other (the ones that text you and the ones that call you) and I had to keep re-renting and giving my card information because one would cancel the other not knowing the other was talking to me. Thin curtains - easy to see the lights from outside during bedtime. Thin blankets - beds were comfortable but bedding was terribly thin. read more

this is our third time to stay at cinnamon shore! disappointed that Friday and Saturday of spring break the trailer at Cinnamon Shore was not open even though it was advertised. we were all looking forward to coffee and breakfast along with a lot of other guests that would show up and no one showed up to work. The house we stayed in was our least favorite because the only supplied three beach towels when the occupancy was 14. not to deter anyone from staying at cinnamon shore because it's a fabulous place in Port Aransas. cinnamon Shores South is our favorite to stay at. summer catch & uncharted are by far more of our favorite than the one we just stayed at Park place. It was still nice but it needs to be more accommodating for the price. Our golf cart was awesome and easy. read more

We love Cinnamon Shores! The accommodations are always amazing and there are plenty of places to get food and drinks. We have stayed at the North property twice now and my only complaint is the temperature of the pools and lack of slides/splash pads for the kids. The pools are HOT by July. We went to the South property once this trip and the pool was so much cooler and refreshing! Otherwise we absolutely love this place! read more

Cinnamon Shore - Family on the beach - Vacation Rentals Near Me - Port Aransas, Texas

We loved our stay at Cinnamon Shores North and can't wait to come back! We ended up needing a last-minute getaway and loved that they had pet friendly stays so we could bring our dogs. The condo where we stayed was clean and had a lovely beach decor. We ended up going here off-season, which we love because it's less crowded and there are no lines for the restaurants that are within the complex. We also checked out the pool which was gorgeous. We loved that the beach was just a short walk away and that there were always cinnamon shores cars around monitoring the complex. One thing I would recommend is that when you first get to your abode, make sure you take pictures of anything you find that's damaged and send it to the Cinnamon Shores folks so that you don't get charged for it. We did that and they were very receptive to everything. The only drawback to our vacation were all the jellyfish that were washing up onshore, but that's just nature and not the fault of this complex. But we really enjoyed our stay and we will be back soon! read more

We absolutely love visiting here! The beach is so beautiful and always kept clean. I highly recommend renting beach chairs. It's just one less thing to drag out to the beach and you get a reserved spot. The beach is dog friendly too! Our pup loved playing in the water with our kids! We stayed in the Happy Kat our first stay. It was an ok house. A bit overly cluttered with furniture and decor junk so it was hard to move around. Definitely not a good house for a group of people. It also had a major ant problem. Every day there were ants all over the furniture and all over the kitchen counters. Another stay we were in a lakeside house. I can't remember it's name but I posted it's picture. The house started with the word Lakeview in its name. It was a beautiful house. Laid out so well! The kitchen was fantastic and I loved the breakfast nook. It was a perfect place for kids (height wise). It was so convent to the game area, main pool and center circle where the movies play! The only issue with this house was the roach problem. Every day we were killing off roaches. The main pool is the only pool we really spend our time while here. It's a good size, there's two small water slides and the playground is attached to it. My kids loved going back and forth from the playground to the pool! There's two restaurants on site and an ice cream truck open in the evenings. This is a great, family friendly place! read more

It's was a clean beach and I love how you could park on the sand. My family had an amazing time !

What can be said of Cinnamon Shore that would truly do it justice! The apartment we stayed in was fabulous and well decorated. This place is unlike any other on the Texas Gulf shoreline. You are so close to the beach and there are things to do inside the complex and also a short drive away in Port Aransas and Corpus Christi. read more

Our place, pools, beach, and food on property was excellent. In the past month we stayed and two very old expensive resorts...we had never been here but it beat them all. Restaurants were worth it alone! We had 20 people and no one was dissatisfied....all happy. The two well known resorts we also visited don't compare. Better than Seaside by a long shot and I'm not a fan of the Texas coast. Way to go!!! read more

Cinnamon Shores is a beautiful development. The community is well planned. We easily got from ocean To condo with the golf cart. The chairs and umbrellas made us want to stay all day taking in the waves. The Condo was stylish and well equipped to cook if one wanted. I would recommend and return in a minute! read more

This was our first official family vacation and it couldn't have been more perfect! My 3 year old and 6 year old had an absolute blast. They did not want to leave! We are originally from Florida and just moved to Austin from Cali a year ago so we really missed the beach. Cinnamon Shores did not dissapoint! We also brought our pup which was great because we do not leaving him alone! He loved the beach and we really liked how dog friendly it was. The unit we stayed at was right around social circle which was great! The beds were super comfortable and we had everything we needed. A golf cart is MUST! It was a lot of fun cruising around and made it easy to drive everything out the beach! Oh and the pools! They were one of the highlights. We are definitely making this a yearly trip for us! Cannot wait to come back! read more

A nice, new community in Port Aransas. They are very organized and have great communication from the moment you book and throughout your entire stay. A golf cart is a must and the beach chairs and umbrella set up is a nice addition too. Overall, we were not that impressed with the house we stayed at and think the entire community is overpriced. We expected more with the $1000/night price tag. Light filtering/blackout shades would have been nice in the bedroom, working AC downstairs and a freezer door that opens properly are just a few of the improvements that could be made to the house. read more

We had a wonderful stay at Cinnamon Shore this week. We stayed at Grey Mist. The beds were comfortable, and the house is decorated so beautifully. The kitchen is downstairs, so that made it easier for unloading groceries. We had HEB in Flour Bluff deliver our groceries, and that was very convenient. It is so worth the $40 fee. The master bedroom is also downstairs, so that was nice my parents didn't have to lug their bags upstairs. We ate at Stout's, Dylan's, and Lisabella's. They were all good, but Lisabella's wasn't as good this time as I remembered it being the last couple of years. Most of our entrees needed some salt. We had food delivered to the beach a couple of times, and that was really convenient. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back! read more

I very much enjoyed staying at this place. My family usually goes to Seaside Florida every year, but this place is pretty close to a spitting image and copy cat of Seaside. It's also a lot closer. Now if you're comparing the two, there are pros and cons between the two. But specifically talking about this place alone, it's really nice. The houses are very nice and clean, the community itself is very clean and visually looks good. The staff that works here is friendly. The golf carts look good and slick. The beach itself is nice. There's a little section that is specifically only for people staying here during their time. Theres a couple of places to eat here, not a whole lot, but they are in the process of opening up some new places. I'll definitely be back to stay here. read more

Wow!! You have really out done yourself with this gem. Your attention to detail with each & every design/architechural choice is truly a class of its own. Thank you for sharing your treasure with us. My family and I fell in love with the ocean views (inside and outside), walk out beach access, and thematic decorum as soon as we walked in the door. Trust-- you have a friend with the Scotts and we do plan on returning in the near future. Hopefully the surrounding construction will be xompleted by then, but other than the limited parking/garage access due to that need-- we honestly felt like this was THE island oasis to be.
