About this property

Beach Access | Private Pool, Ping-Pong, Firepit, Swings, & Views | Tipsea Turtle

  • The Tip’Sea Turtle Port A Beach House is a 4BR/3BA, three-story home in a highly sought-after beachfront community in Port Aransas, just one block from the beach with an easy boardwalk walkover for direct access to the shore. Enjoy the island’s highest observation deck, offering breathtaking ocean-to-bay views—especially stunning at sunrise and sunset. The home also features a private pool, spacious backyard, full-size washer and dryer, WiFi, and is pet-friendly with a fee. Sleeps 12 and is located in the golf-cart zone. COPASTR: 200-098-172

    The Tip'Sea Turtle Port A Beach House exceeds all of your expectations from the moment you drive up with parking space for 5.

    This street boasts lots of palm trees and is a cul-de-sac, so there’s little traffic — great for children at play! Take a short walk to Beach Marker 16 on Port Aransas Beach, or hop in your golf cart and be there in minutes.

    At the Tip'Sea Turtle, you'll have a large private pool, cabana, spacious and well landscaped yard with a grill, huge picnic table, loungers, ping pong table (bring your paddles and balls), fire pit, and party lights! The outdoor area at Tip'Sea Turtle is hard to beat with all of the beautiful and convenient amenities the owners have provided for guests!

    With 3 levels and front and back balconies, you'll be catching sunsets in the front and sunrises in the back — and you can hear the waves from either one! This area is a hot spot for vacationers because it’s just a block from the beach and close to all the activity on 11th Street (including a few skydivers). You’re one block from Beach Access Rd, so you can easily walk or hop in your golf cart and be on the sand in 2–3 minutes — everything you need is within 5 minutes!

    You will feel welcomed to the Tip'Sea Turtle when you open the front door to a beautiful entry way, head straight to the back door to enjoy the luxurious backyard area, or step into the heated and cooled fun space in the garage for games, or pick your room (Bunk Room with 4 twins or a Queen Room with Queen Bed and 2 twins, bunk style), a full bath is also on this bottom floor.

    Heading up to the 2nd floor, enjoy a large common area to include a beautifully and thoughtfully designed chef's kitchen for guests who love to prep, cook, serve and dine kitchen style around the island. Or enjoy the oversized dining space for family meals.

    The utility closet has a large capacity washer & dryer, available for guest use. Guests will have access to a broom, mop and some basic cleaning supplies as well.

    The living space, perfectly designed and comfortably furnished seats your family and friends for TV watching, napping and visiting. And for those who want to feel the sea breeze, step right out onto the balcony.

    Tip'Sea Turtle boasts gorgeous decor with several pieces of artwork and photos from Port A!

    This 2nd floor also has a full bathroom and a King Bedroom which opens out to the front balcony with seating to comfortably watch those famous Port A sunsets!

    The top floor (3rd floor) is a private suite with king bed, large closet, full bathroom and a private balcony with ocean view.

    If luxury and location are your priorities, Tip'Sea Turtle will be your favorite beach house in Port Aransas!

Perfect Beach Getaway with a Pool!

We had a great stay at the Tipsea Turtle! Our party had 2 families with 4 adults and 5 kids. The house was just as presented online and worked perfectly for our group. The beach was very close, both walking or driving and it was awesome to have the pool at the house for continued fun! Would recommend and stay there again!

Perfect!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Tip Sea Turtle. It has by far the best beach house we’ve stayed at in Port A and will definitely be going back. The house was maintained well and really clean. The owners put a lot of attention into details that would make any guest feel welcome and comfortable. Pool was awesome and my 8 yo lived in the game room when he wasn’t swimming. The management company was very responsive and polite. Overall, best beach stay we’ve had!

Multi generational family vacation

Teens and parents at beach at least 4 hours every day, grandparents went twice, loved the pool! Great spaces for each group to relax away from each other! Internet was unpredictable so disappointing for the younger crowd, grandparents didn’t miss it at all!
