Sip your coffee on the balcony while listening to the waves. Boardwalk for easy

Tortuga View BH405 is a two-bedroom, two-bathroom getaway with a Gulf view. The unit is on the 3rd or top floor, with no elevator access, which provides a water view and ensures that no one will be above you.

Conveniently located in town, it is in the golf cart zone and is just minutes away from Port Aransas' dining, shopping, and entertainment. You will access the condo with a keycode, so there is no need to pick up a key.
The open living room and dining room provide space for you and your family to relax after a fun day in the sun. The large flat-screen TV in the living room offers both cable and streaming capability. There is a supply of board games and puzzles so you can enjoy some family fun or be all set for a rainy day.
You’ll have a choice of a Keurig or a regular coffee maker to fix your morning fuel, and the well-equipped kitchen is the perfect spot to cook your catch of the day. The balcony provides additional space to stretch out and enjoy the view and sea breeze.

This place is great! We were here March 8-12. The pool was like bath water! The walk to the beach is so easy! Felt safe the entire time. Beach was great-warm enough water for kids to swim, good waves. Condo has 3 TVs. Kitchen is small, but we didn't really cook. There are no spices (think it's a texas law to have no food). Minor inconvenience-there are no beach towels (which would be nice since they are hard to pack) and beach toys would be nice (had to buy 13 boogie boards (not a deal breaker, just inconvenient). Rented a golf cart for a day-fun way to get around the island. Rented shade for 25 too which was nice after some epic sunburns. I would stay here again-quiet, safe, easy to find and right by all the restaurants and shops. Easy code to access door. Hoping to return next Spring Break! Beach is mile marker 4 if you're looking for a reference point.

Wonderful family vacation

We had a great time. The property and condo were great. We enjoyed the pool and game room in the evenings. Beach board walk was perfect. The primary bedroom was hot at night even with AC set at 72, but living room and other room stayed cool. Bring extra trash bags.

Wonderful Getaway!

We went with our family of four for a few days and had a great time! The boardwalk takes you right to the beach, and the pool is nice and clean when you need a break from the sand. This unit was very clean upon arrival and decorated really cute. They have books, games and plenty of kitchen items to make for a great stay!

Excellent spot to relax

This is our third stay at Beachhead and we have enjoyed every stay, we even had our wedding reception there 18 years ago. This visit we stayed in close proximity to the pool and it was just perfect. We love the view of the gulf you get while relaxing by the pool, the boardwalk to the beach is nice, the games in the game room are fun when wanting to stay out of the heat, covered parking keeps the car cool, kitchens in rooms provide able space for cooking, and so many of our favorite shops and restaurants are in walking distance. Highly recommend staying here when you visit Port Aransas

Great Last Minute Stay

It was very easy to book and the communication was excellent. Personal note on the specific room, balcony door does not lock and a piece of metal is on the wall that cut my husbands arm. Also there was a wifi router but no instructions to connect to the internet. Overall though the place was very clean and stocked nicely. Everyone had great nights sleep and plenty of room.

Perfectly clean, comfortable stay. Liked being wable to walk to the beach via the boardwalk. Condo interior was updated and had everything we needed. We liked the bag to use for finding shells. Hosts had everything we needed and good instructions. You'll need $1.50 in quarters to wash a load of laundry and then another $1.50 for drying a load. I wish they had a coin machine available. Pool was great and relaxing. Beds were a little harder than I prefer but still everything was clean. Outside of the condos needs a little sprucing up with paint and such. There is no office to check-in. You’ll get a text letting you know your condo is ready (guarantee check-in between 4 and 5.) Felt very safe and would stay here again.

Pelicans with a view

Overall the Tortuga View At Beachhead was great. Spacious condo, clean, fully stocked with the items you need. A great heated pool and a short walk to the beach. Every balcony has a view of the water, some restricted views. Comfortable furniture, nice decorations, added bonus of patio furniture. Opportunities for improvement, bed wasn’t comfortable (too firm), muddy parking spots with standing water, area’s for repairs around the property (maintenance was working on several things, which was great and not disruptive), beach path would be nice if entire path had a rail at least on onside- though probably not required, just that added for those that need it. Nice clean location in a great spot close to beach and area restaurants. We will be back - liked this place and ease of checking in and out, without contact of staff.
