About Marina Motor Lodge & Studios
At Marina Motor Lodge & Studios, we offer a comfortable and convenient home base for exploring the Texas Gulf Coast. Located in Aransas Pass, our lodge puts guests close to fishing, boating, beaches, local attractions, and everything that makes the Coastal Bend worth exploring.
The Philosophy
Vintage Charm. Coastal Comfort. Your stay. Your story.
We believe travel should feel like something. Not just a transaction, not just a bed — an experience. The murals on our walls, the names on our doors, the fire pit out front at sunset — these are the things we're building toward.
We're adding rooms, improving the property, and planning for laundry facilities, a dedicated fish cleaning station, and more. Come see us now, and come back to see what we've become.
Our Story
Marina Motor Lodge & Studios is a work in progress — and we mean that proudly.
We're a family-owned property in the middle of a thoughtful renovation, bringing new life to a classic Texas Gulf Coast roadside lodge. Each room we restore gets a name, a mural, and a personality. We're not trying to be a chain hotel. We're trying to be something better: a place you actually remember.
Our 14-unit property includes a building from 2004 and our original vintage roadside structure — the kind of place that used to line every coastal highway in America, and still has the bones to prove it.
We have an on-site manager who lives here, knows the area, and is genuinely invested in your stay. We answer our own phones. We want you to come back.
