Revision:

function text_area_shortcode($value, $post_id, $field) {
  if (is_admin()) {
    // don't do this in the admin
    // could have unintended side effects

    // revision: return $value because we don't want to miss on the textarea content
    return $value;
  }

  return do_shortcode($value);
}
add_filter('acf/load_value/type=textarea', 'text_area_shortcode', 10, 3);

@hube2’s code has a bug. Corrected code

function text_area_shortcode($value, $post_id, $field) {
  if (is_admin()) {
    // don't do this in the admin
    // could have unintended side effects
    return;
  }

  return do_shortcode($value);
}
add_filter('acf/load_value/type=textarea', 'text_area_shortcode', 10, 3);
