Double Barr Cottages

Was pleasantly surprised with this place. Cottages were clean. Owners are super nice and and very helpful. Bathroom was a little small but worked out okay for us. Had a picnic table out side for each cottage and bbq pits. Complimentary laundry every day. Good location.

Let me start by saying if there were minus stars I would highlight them. These look really cute from the outside but once we got a key... It was another story. My first clue should have been that the dumpster was so overflowing that there were bags outside of it... And that was within 50 feet of a door to the "second" room they wanted to give us. When we went into the first room we immediately noted that one if the beds was not finished being made; no pillows and no blanket or bedspread, just sheets. Then when we opened the cabinet we saw a cockroach running along the back wall. Then we saw many little cockroach antennas sticking out the crack of the cabinet. Then I moved a cup to see if there were more little critters and the cup handle was broken off. There were no handles on the refrigerator and the refrigerator was blocking the second door.We asked for our money back and they are refusing to give it back... WHAT!!!!That doesn't even go along with their own policy!So sad that it is hard to find a good place that is cute... And to top it off it was all booked through Expedia!Now we are fighting with Expedia.

It saddens me to have to type this. After calling Double Barr Cottages to make reservations yesterday I felt it necessary to let ownership know how, long time, loyal customers feel about the rate increase.  As I totally understand rate increases, I don't understand more than a 100% increase in the wake of a disaster (Last year we paid $800 & something for 7 days in a trailer. This year they increased to $2,100 for 7 days) I understand they have an extra bedroom in them, but that is ridiculous.We only paid $725.10 for a Comfort Inn with continental breakfast, in Orlando Florida ( 1 mile from Disney World).I would think you would want your loyal customers to come back. But I guess not. Not to mention when I checked with Patsy to ask if the trailers would be replaced, she told me the rates would stay the same. I have even spoke to her several times since and at no point did she tell me there would be a this kind of a rate increase.My family has been staying at the Double Bar for 23yrs. And since our family has grown we have stayed in the 2 trailer every year for several years. But it's really hard to justify the rate increase you have implemented.  Especially since you were able to receive these trailer through some part of the government relief.  So in being greedy and grudging people as your doing you have lost long time customers, who referred the Double Bar to many people who stayed there. We have decided for our 2 families to stay at a Airbnb that we were able to find for less than half the price and with a POOL! We will no longer refer Double Bar to others. Good Luck on whatever you're trying to accomplish.

I went here with my wife, two brother in laws, and my kids. We were here for 3 days and never got fresh towels or tp for neither one of our cottages. Not that big of a deal. The huge problem was after we checked out. I get an email that first of all was pretty rude saying that we checked out late. We drove out of the parking lot at 11:25-11:30. This was due to my family making sure all trash was thrown away and all sand was swept and cottages were very clean so the cleaning people didn't have to do extra work. While we were still there the cleaning staff walked into the cottages and found some Sandals in the kids room and brought them out to us. Everything was good and the cleaning staff seemed pretty happy as we left a tip. About two and a half hours later I get a email from management stating that the are charging my credit card for damages. They then send 3 pictures of big holes in the doors. Not in one cottage but both! These were holes that we would have noticed immediately! I also can assure you that if anyone in my family had knocked a hole in any of the doors or damaged anything at all that we would brought that to their attention and taken care of the issue. When we left there wasn't any damage to any of the doors and if there was the cleaning crew who went into both cottages would have brought it to our attentionwhile we were still there. If you do decide to stay at this place MAKE SURE to take pictures of the cottages when you arrive and before you leave!!! If not you will probably get the same pictures that were sent to me sent to you!!!Every picture that management has uploaded on here has time/date stamp on picture. The pictures sent to me magically DO NOT!!! I have contacted the sheriff in Port A and I am disputing charges with my bank. Let this be a lesson you don't have to learn the hard way! Good luck with double Charge... I mean double Barr!

We loved the accessibility to the beach, and it was wonderful for our dogs! There were three TVs in the small bungalow, which the kids absolutely loved.However...The floors were sticky and black and there were cockroaches -- which the management referred to as Palmetto Bugs. Upon checkout (we only stayed two days over Easter weekend), we requested contact from the management because of the dirty floors and bugs. I left my email address with the person who took our keys. That person said "Well, we just sprayed on Tuesday," and when I told her I had found dead cockroaches, she said, "Only two?" Ick.I did not hear from management at all, and so Friday (we checked out on the previous Sunday), I emailed the management. I requested a 10% refund of $50.00 and was told that because I did not contact them within a timely manner, that they would not be refunding any of my money.I thought that $50.00 was a pretty reasonable request for having to wear shoes all weekend.Pretty disappointed with the customer service -- and pretty grossed out at the cleanliness.

We stayed there this past weekend. We were nervous because usually when we get hotels in port a they are a bit "used" feeling.We were actually shocked by how much we liked this one. It had a kitchenette (even though we didn't cook) it was decorated cute. I like that it had tile floors not carpet.It was a cozy little cottage.We will stay at this one next time, it's the one we have liked the best in the last 5 years.We did see baby roaches here and there but we always being raid. It's by the beach so most the hotel have bugs :/

furious. we got in. checked in. unloaded bags. went swimming at beach. went fishing. came in late and realized our pillows had urine on them. yes urine. human pee. they smelled it and admitted it.

The location was misleading bc I thought we would have beach access from the door. Not too far of a walk to the beach though. The cabin was dirty and there were roaches. The staff was helpful as we had a late check in. The price was decent for what we got. I wouldn't stay here again though.

We enjoyed our stay here. Quiet property, cute and comfy. Very friendly front office staff. The space is tight and there's no real living room, but we had enough room for our group of 5. The rooms had window AC units and a fan in each. We had no issues with the cooling system at all. Location was also great, close to the beach, shops, and restaurants. They also offer a pool pass at a nearby property. Only thing I would say to pay attention to is that EVERYONE in the place must be 23+ unless with a guardian. We were all over the age limit, but the occupants next to us had to leave because some were under 23.

My family of 6 stayed here for 4 days this weekend. First the positive, the attendant Brandi was very nice and accommodating. Kitchen was stocked with dinning and cooking stuff but bring your own spices. Place was clean,soft beds with nice enough linens. Don't plan on anyone sleeping on the futon couch, very uncomfortable. Now the shoe drop. It was unbearably hot in the room. They have small window units in each room that are loud and don't work worth a damn. Middle of July over 100 outside crappy AC is not a good mix. If your going in the cooler months it's fine for the price but avoid in mid summer.
