Tipsea Turtle by AvantStay | Pool, Boardwalk, View

The Tip'Sea Turtle Port A Beach House is a 4BR/3BA, 3 story beach house in desired beachfront Boardwalk subdivision in Port Aransas, 1 block to Port Aransas beach. The Boardwalk beachfront subdivision has the highest observation deck on the island. See ocean to bay and the views are absolutely amazing, especially at sunset and sunrise! Private pool, Large backyard, boardwalk, full size washer and dryer, WIFI, pet friendly with fee. Sleeps 12, 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 leisurely short walk to the boardwalk that leads to beach marker 16 on Port Aransas Beach. You will want to stop at the observation deck on the boardwalk and take in the stunning views up and down the beach, and then turn around and see all the way to the bay! It's a view unlike any other boardwalk in Port A!

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! Hear the waves on either one! This area is a hot spot for vacationers because of the boardwalk, being a block from the beach, and activity on 11th Street (including a few sky divers). You're one block from Beach Access Rd, so you can easily walk that way to the beach, or hop in your golf cart and be there in 2-3 minutes. Literally be on the beach with everything you need within 5 minutes.

Guests can rent a golf cart from Coastal Eds! We encourage you to book the golf cart with Coastal Eds as soon as possible, we cannot guarantee availability if you choose to delay booking.

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!
