Mrs. Woody's/ Bella Bella Boutique in
Port Aransas (TX)

We stopped in kind of down on our luck with truck issues. The woman in the shop was so assuring and we appreciate her kindness so much. The mechanic, Josh, was also very helpful and knowledgeable. If you’re ever in need of vehicle Maitenance or enjoy shopping a cute boutique we highly recommend this place!

Absolutely racists! My wife and I stopped by since she saw it passing by the first day we got here for vacation. As soon as we saw the "Trump is my president" sign, we KNEW we should have turned away. We spoke Spanish and started getting several nasty looks. The lady in the boutique was extremely rude and wouldn't respond to ANY of my wife's questions. When we decided to purchase a necklace for my niece, they tried to upcharge up $15 extra!!!!! The aesthetic is very nice, but if you're going to be blantly racist, please don't work in customer care services. I'll be going to tik tok with this.

I guess they just pick and choose who they want to help. I read some nice reviews and then some horrible ones. Exactly my experience… did not even try to help me. They must’ve decided when I walked in that they didn’t want to help me. I can’t imagine why? Very disappointed. Really wanted to love this place as it makes such a statement in Port Aransas and it’s so very cute in concept.

Absolutely love Boutique Bella Bella! Every time I shop here, I find something unique and stylish that I can’t get anywhere else. The quality of the clothes is amazing, and everything fits and feels so good. The staff is super friendly and always helpful with styling tips or finding the right size. You can tell they really care about their customers and want you to leave feeling confident. Whether you’re looking for a cute everyday outfit or something special, Bella Bella never disappoints. One of my favorite local shops!

Visited here while on a girls trip in Port Aransas Texas. Such a cute little shop that is attached to a garage. The girl working the front desk was extremely pleasant and kind. We proceeded to the clothing side/clearance section and that was a whole different story. The girl working didn't welcome us, she acted as though we were bothering her. We were informed we couldn't try any clearance items on. Ok well why would we buy items that we can not try on or return?? She informed us they had moved most of there merchandise to another building next door. There is an adorable area with all Christmas decor etc...still no customer service just stares. I've shopped around the world and I will say this was a very uncomfortable experience. I will not return nor give someone my business if I am uncomfortable in there store. Sorry, not sorry ?

I had a vehicle issue this morning. An undercarriage cover came loose and was dragging under my car. They secured it quickly and I was back to my sister vacation trip in 20 minutes!! Everyone was so friendly and helpful. I recommend this place 100%. The boutique has great buys too! Thank you!!

This place gets all my votes. We drove to Port A for a family beach trip for two days only to roll in off the ferry to find that our truck had a busted break line. It wasn’t drivable so we called Mrs Woodys shop the next day. She had it towed and fixed before lunch time. All the other shops on the island didn’t pick up their phone or they had to close at lunch time… so we are grateful for this incredible automotive shop!!!

Let me start this review by expressing our gratitude to the employees of this establishment. They were kind and quick, including the towing services they contract out. The owner on the other hand is horrible (blonde lady-on most lives). I have been holding off on writing a review for years because I thought I was just catching her at bad moments. She is rude to her employees and customers. Everything is insanely overpriced. Just a heads up if you have serious car troubles you’re better off just towing straight to a dealership and not wasting anymore money.

I had a small issue with my car after hitting a curb while on vacation, and I’m so glad I found this shop! I was met by an amazing woman who was not only kind and professional but also made sure the problem was fixed quickly and at a very affordable price. As a woman, it can sometimes be intimidating dealing with car issues, but I felt completely respected and taken care of here. I also loved browsing the boutique while I waited—such a fun and thoughtful touch! Highly recommend this shop—honest, efficient, and woman-friendly. A true gem!

In June 2025, our rental car tire was going flat. An answer to prayer, that this business was only a mile from our hotel. They graciously patched the nail wound on the tire within 30 minutes of arriving. Very much appreciated! We drove the rental car 1,600 miles after that, for 2 weeks. The patch held. ? May God continue to bless their business!!! ?

My granddaughter was in Port Aransas with friends for Spring Break at the beach. On Saturday mid-morning her car was making a loud squealing noise and so she called me for advice. I found Mrs. Woody’s online and called and talked to Corie. Even though they closed in less than 2 hrs she had my granddaughter bring the car in and check it out to make sure it would be safe for her trip back to Fort Worth the next day. All was OK, and they suspected it was just a squeaky belt due to the salty air. As an Auto Repair facility owner in Fort Worth, I was really impressed with Corie and the staff at Mrs. Woody’s and highly recommend them for their customer service and professionalism. - David

Mrs Woody's is amazing! The shop is great, full of fun and really cute items. The customer service is over the top. And the auto/service center has bailed me out many times, great service there too! We are big fans of Mrs Woody's!

This facility is a very honest repair shop. I was out of town and experienced transmission issues, but the mechanic quickly identified the problem during a test drive. As a car enthusiast, I consider this shop in Port Aransas a blessing. The mechanics are friendly, and the management is also very supportive. The shop has a fun decor that makes it a great place to visit. As a business owner, I admire their effective business model and can see that the staff is genuinely happy.

These amazing folks towed our dead mini van in late on Friday afternoon, checked it out, gave us a quote within an hour for a new alternator and had us out the door and on the road by noon Saturday, all while smiling. Highly recommend this business!

Our brakes decided to go out while on the island. Mrs. Woody was a LIFESAVER. They did everything perfectly and at a reasonable price. I also have to add that it is so great to see a woman-owned mechanic. I am so pleased to have been able to give patronage to this establishment.

After three fun days in Port A, we were getting ready to leave when my car overheated. After a long wait for the insurance approved tow truck they finally dropped me off at Mrs. Woody's. The staff is wonderful. Turns out it was the water pump. And it would be Monday before it could be fixed. It was only Friday. After a bit of a meltdown and a lot of chaos we got ourselves figured out. Staff was wonderful in understanding and giving us some advice and space to deal with what was going on. On Saturday morning we get a call the the owner, Chrissy, had picked dup the part personally and our ride would be ready by 1pm!!! So fantastic!! We had the absolute best experience during a really awful moment on a girls vacation. I'm so grateful!

In town for a recent vacation and my check engine light on my Jeep went off. They were recommended to me by someone local and my experience was outstanding. They got me in the same day and diagnosed my and had me back on the road in a couple of hours. Their entire staff was friendly and accommodating. I would recommend to everyone. Thank you for taking care of me and allowing me to continue to relax and enjoy my vacation!!

We were on a girls trip had an issue with my armeda Was directed to Ms woodys auto garage. We were blessed beyond measure with true concern for our problem. Got us in and out in just over an hour. Our vacation was saved it was very fair rate and extremely knowledgeable staff. Shopping was great while we waited. 100% recommend, Carolyn Quine

Big shout out and Thank you for fixing my tire up! Affordable and easy I enjoyed the pink mechanic shop and the great friendly service! If you're ever in need in the Port A Area Mrs. Woody Jr's is the place to go! Support your local business!

My son went to the island for spring break and got a flat tire on the beach. He was able to drive to the Texan and leave his truck there until the next morning. I called and spoke with Corie and she was able to problem solve with me and get the tow truck to pick up my son’s truck. They ordered the tires and kept me informed every step of the way. They were so helpful and put my mind at ease. They had my son back on the road by 4:30 and he was able to make it back home while it was still daylight outside. I am forever grateful to Mrs.Woody’s staff. Corie and Cooper were awesome.

Discovered a nail in one of our van's tires yesterday morning, my wife called Mrs. Woody Jr's and the young lady said she could get us right in. I limped the 4 miles up to Port A, and true to their word, as soon as I checked in, they got right on it. Was in and out within 30 minutes; tire is holding air perfectly. Big shout out for outstanding service to this Winter Texan. Will recommend to all of our fellow Winter Texans!

Wow! I can not rate this business and the employees high enough. They are friendly, courteous, accommodating, extremely knowledgeable and honest. Stuart diagnosed my 7.3 Power Stroke Diesel issue, explained the cause in an easy to understand way and gave me recommendations without any pressure. The honesty and integrity is impressive.

As luck would have it, my truck developed a leak of antifreeze just when the Siberian Express cold was approaching. We called the shop and they were able to get us in that day. I thought they might have to order parts and have a wait. We were given an estimate for the replacement of the water pump which seemed reasonable. We left the truck that afternoon and to our surprise we got the call the next morning to come pick it up. The mechanic, Stuart had worked through the night to complete the repairs. I highly recommend Mrs. Woody’s for your auto repair. Fair price and reliable.

We were visiting Port Aransas from New Mexico and had an issue with our Honda. We took the car to Mrs. Woody's and we're pleasantly greeted by Cori. She was very friendly and assured us the car would be well taken care of. Stewart called us within an hour and we discussed the issue. They had us off and running in a few hours..Thank you all for the piece of mind and great service.

We got a nail in our tire and it was Saturday so I was very grateful that the shop was open. Cost of the tire repair was a little high at $31 - but the shop with all its sales items was fun to spend time in. I purchased a couple sets of earrings and very pretty necklace fell in love with a couple dresses. Very friendly place and professional

Had an exhaust leak, and we're from out of the state on vacation. Perfect storm to be overcharged and taken advantage of. Called the day ahead before arriving to see if we needed an appointment and was told to bring it in the first thing in the morning. We did just that. It made me feel more comfortable to see that there were locals that seemed to be on first name basis and they used the shop. The owner was nice and polite, quickly got us in and got the vehicle diagnosed and I was given the repair options. I felt the price was fair it was a little higher than what I would have paid at my hometown shop but it is a tourist town and I have anticipated it anyways. What I didn't anticipate was the level of service I received there. My wife and I were given a ride back to where we were staying and our vehicle was repaired by noon. I was picked up again to get my vehicle. I waited almost a week to write this to see how the repairs were and have put 600 miles on it and all is well. I would highly recommend this shop for travelers. High marks for customer service.

Unbelievable! Please believe that I am a "real customer" and not a friend or a planted person typing this to make them look good. The level of service and customer satisfaction is the best you will ever find! I took my girlfriend to the island for Valentine's Day and as we pulled up to the hotel, the main fan belt pulley to my BMW 740LI broke. I didn't know where to turn because the dealer in Corpus Christi was booked and couldn't get me in for a repair for at least 3-4 days. I called Woody's Jr and to my surprise they did repair work on BMW's! The came and towed my car, I asked if they could provide me with the number to the closest rental car office and Mrs. Woody told me "don't worry about it, I have a vehicle you can borrow"! I was shocked..."borrow". So, we finally get to the shop and the rental was a 1989 Econoline Yellow van with crushed velvet red captain chairs and interior! We loved it! Hey, it was free! FedEx screwed up and didn't ship the part for Saturday deliver so we had to stay until Monday. Still no problem. Well, Monday when we checked out of the hotel and were going to head to the shop, the starter locked up on the van. It was driveable so we drove it three blocks over to the shop. Again, they provided us with another vehicle to use (a Pink Suburban)! We loved that one even more than the van! So, with all that said, Mrs. Woody could not have been any nicer to us. My car was repaired and was charged a very reasonable price. They charged us absolutely nothing for the vehicles that we used Friday all the way until Monday! Great place, super nice people, I recommend them highly! Seriously, I doubt if you will ever find this kind of kindness and service anywhere else! Best regards, Rick Rios
