THE SPACE

Tortuga View is a two-bedroom, two-bathroom getaway with a Gulf view. Its new owners recently redecorated and made many updates (including a new AC) in 2024. This inviting condo sleeps six and is situated in the popular Beachhead Community. 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.

You can retreat to the primary bedroom, which has a king-sized bed, a large TV, and an en-suite bathroom. The second bedroom has twin-over-twin bunk beds and a twin bed with a twin trundle. This room also has an en-suite bathroom and TV.

The unit is on the 3rd or top floor, which provides a water view and ensures that no one will be above you. The complex does not have elevators.

COMPLEX AMENITIES

Access to the beach is a breeze. A private boardwalk in the middle of the complex leads you over the dunes and to the beach, where you can spend your day playing in the sand and surf.

This condo unit is conveniently close to the large, heated pool, where you can lounge while enjoying beautiful views of the dunes and Gulf of Mexico.

Take a break from the pool in the onsite game room, which offers foosball, ping-pong, air hockey, and a TV lounge area. Perfect for a family vacation or reunion, there are many shaded seating areas to gather, chat, and enjoy a drink with others. Your kids will enjoy the play structure, and you can enjoy lunch on the picnic tables or use the BBQ grills for a family cookout.

"AC was never consistent and never remained at a cool temperature
The experience was OK, had a difficult time with the air-conditioning, and the commode in the master bedroom broke, but was repaired quickly"
Mar 18, 2024 - Carlos T., San Antonio, TX



"Beautiful Place
Great location. Beautiful room. Relaxing and cozy. We all enjoyed the place very much and would stay there again. "

"Great place to stay!!
We had a great time. The access to the beach was great and our place was close to the pool. Looking forward to coming back soon. "

"Wonderful stay
Everything was exactly as it should be. Clean and ready for us when we arrived."
Sep 28, 2021 - Jenny L., San Antonio, TX



"Disappointed
When when I first walked into the room I noticed the balcony you was out of order which nobody let me know before renting the room! The security there was a little uppity and telling people not to drive fast I've been annoying since he seemed bored. also I did see several pets with renters there I will never rent another condo from there ever again!"
Sep 14, 2021 - Gabriel A., San Antonio, TX



"Great Getaway!
I took my two 16-year-old daughters and 2 of their friends for a little girls' beach getaway. The condo location was great, right on the beach and the condo itself was super cute, comfy, clean and nicely decorated. The master bedroom was huge and the king bed was super comfortable. Our only issue was the TV in the living room did not work. I called to have it repaired but the property management company office was closed for the day. I called again the next morning and they sent someone promptly to repair it. It took him awhile to figure out what was going on and he eventually fixed it but unfortunately, the fix was short-lived and the tv stopped responding to the remote control again. We were very disappointed as we were looking forward to unwinding with a movie in the evenings after a long beach day and weren't able to watch it on the big screen tv. Other than that, everything at the condo was great! "
Jul 10, 2020 - Olga C., Cedar Park, TX



"You should know.....
You should know several things:
1. No elevator, third floor, many stairs.
2. View is not worth it.
3. Not really beach front.
4. Inside is nicely updated.
5. Second bedroom has two twins, one with a trundle which is really only good for kids.
6. 12.00 for a beach parking permit good for a year, next time we will stay out a little further and just drive to the beach.
7. They were tearing up our parking space, turned off the water main for 3 hours when we were trying to get ready to go out.
8. Two nights cost over 800.00....not worth it."
Jun 15, 2020 - Lee R., Boerne, TX



"Good place to stay!
We came in on a Thursday evening and the first night was hectic. The condo we were staying in had something wrong with the breaker box and we kept loosing electricity. Frank (the onsite maintenance) went ABOVE AND BEYOND to make sure we were comfortable! He gave us his personal cell so he could come flip the breaker throughout the night. Port A escapes offered to move us Thursday night but we just toughed it out because we have 2 chidden under 5 and they were already in bed. Friday morning we got a call that Port A Escapes was going to be moving us and made sure we were 100% taken care of. All of this was out of everyones control but the customer service with the staff at Beachhead and Port A Escapes made the trip great!"

"Cute and cozy
This unit was super clean and adorable! Beautiful floors and appliances! So much room which was nice for my big crew!! I would stay in this unit again for sure! :)"

"4th of July family trip
This trip was my second time renting through port a escapes. The unit at beach head was perfect for the family. There was a great clubhouse, pool, and direct access to the beach. "

"Great weekend
The condo was very clean and perfect for the weekend. We enjoyed the stay there. And would definitely come back. "

"405BH VAC. REVEIW
I was very impressed with the well stocked kitchen. I kept hitting my knee on the corner of the bed in the master bedroom, coming out of the bathroom, I stuffed a pillow between the bed and mattress, TV was to small. The condo was very clean and the staff we're very friendly and helpful. I was so happy that our rental was ready by 2:30. Thank you so much."

"Our First Experience as a Winter Texan
Except for the weather not being as good as would have liked, we enjoyed our stay in Beachhead Condos. The condo was well supplied and the rental company was extremely good at immediately taking care of any concerns we had. The updates made to the pool and pool area were fantastic! Looking forward to using the updated laundry area next year. The residents of Port Aransas were very welcoming!"

"Great Condo!
Great condo with a short walk to the beach (bring a wagon) and a really great pool. Condo very clean and well maintained with a great floor plan. Would definitely stay there again."
Aug 30, 2018 - , Austin, TX



"August- 2018- nice condo but mothball smell ruined it for us
The condo itself was upgraded and nice, but the overwhelming smell of mothballs in the unit made the stay miserable. If they can fix that issue, it would be worth renting. It’s also clear that the cleaning service is basic- clean sheets and towels and basic sweeping, but not much else. There was still food splattered on the cabinets, dust and fingerprints on tables and TV stands, and filthy ceiling fans. As others have mentioned, the beds aren’t the most comfortable, but could have lived with that if not for the smell. The unit is located walking distance to the beach and has a nice pool on premises as well. Beware the TV in the living room is TINY and the one in the bedroom doesn’t work at all, so not sure what the point is unless you’re going to bring your own DVD player and cords and hook something up in there. The location and the overall condition of the unit we’re good, but the smell was just really unbearable. "

"not as advertised
floors were fifthly view was not as advertvised only 4 towels for 3 nights for adults"
Jul 30, 2018 - jim a., waco, TX



"Beach Condo
The location of the condo was great. There’s a boardwalk that takes you to the beach. Overall, the condo was nice. The king bed was a bit wonky as it slopes to the right. The door to the balcony didn’t shut but we were on the second floor. "
Jul 27, 2018 - Jackie S., Austin, TX



"Recent stay
Second time staying here. No regrets. Condo was clean, AC worked great and you can't beat the proximity to the beach.Highly recommend."
Jul 24, 2018 - Jose R., Bandera, Texas



"Too much fun
The condo was renovated and clean. It has beach access (boardwalk and a road) and is close to downtown fun! Staff was easy to work with and very communicative. Don't let the exterior fool you!"
Jul 17, 2018 - Peggy C., Pflugerville, TX



"very nice
newly painted and updated"
May 27, 2018 - Betty D., New Ulm, TX



"Nice location and clean condo
Overall we enjoyed our stay. The space was adequate and the table was large enough for all 6 of us to sit around. We loved that we were able to walk to the beach just down the boardwalk.
The place was clean, but the sofas' finish was disintegrating. The 'fully stocked' kitchen was a little light on cooking utensils and cookware. Though the freezer kept the ice we bought frozen, it took the freezer took 3 days to freeze our drinks we put in when we arrived.
The fridge kept everything cold and was nice and large.
The beds weren't really that comfortable, and though the bed in the master bedroom was lovely, it had an attack foot board that we all have bruises on our shins from accidentally hitting it on the way to the bathroom.
Also walking up two flights of stairs was difficult esp. when loading and loading the cars. But we were happy with our stay."
Aug 08, 2017 - , Angleton, Tx



"Great stay!
The unit was very clean and just as described. Well stocked with TP, towels etc. Very convenient walk to the beach. "
Aug 03, 2017 - Fiona D., Austin, TX



"Interesting
The property was in a great central location to everything in Port A. As far as the property's general condition, the furniture was kind of outdated, the beds were not comfortable, and the floor was obviously unswept. We found the kitchen very well stocked with all the necessities. Also, down where we parked under the unit, the insects we terrible !"
Jul 13, 2017 - Hunter Lisle L., Coppell, TX



"Keep Coming back
We love this unit and keep coming back year after year. Easy boardwalk to the beach. Covered parking. Great pool and bbq. Comfortable living room and kitchen. Comfortable sleeping for 6. "
May 25, 2017 - Lisa D., Cedar Park, Texas



"Sandfest getaway
When first got you the room, was pleased on how clean everthing was. Had all that we needed. Was close to the beach. No problems at all with the facilities and the staff at Portaescapes were very nice and informative. "
Apr 25, 2017 - , Mc Queeney, Texas



"Great place to stay!
It was a very nice clean condo. Close to the beach and a short walk to the pool. "
Aug 16, 2016 - , San Antonio, TX



"Great Vacation
The only problem we had was the master sink would not drain unless we unscrewed and removed the plate at the bottom of the sink. We told the maintenance crew on the property but they told us they would have to order a new part. The condo was very clan and well updated. The beach access was very close, although this particular unit did not have a great ocean view. None of the TV remotes worked, and it would have been nice to have a TV in the master bedroom. We booked a 5 night stay and were only provided 1 trash bag which was an inconvenience, although the maintenance man gave me a couple extra for the kitchen when I approached him about the sink. "
Jul 31, 2016 - Jennifer G., Lubbock, Texas



"BH405
Very nice. One suggestion that would have made it better: This unit needs some room darkening shades in both bedrooms because one bedroom overlooks the pool area which is highly lit up at night for safety; the other bedroom has blinds that do not close adequately. "
Jul 27, 2016 - , Austin, TX



"Great Places to stay
Had a great time, location was perfect. Condo was nice an clean. Will stay here again. Kitchen very well stocked. Pool was great."

"Nice Family Vacation.
Very nice condo. The distance is not too far from the beach and the pool is just around the corner. Just enough room for my family of 4. A short drive to shopping and restaurants. Check in/check out could not have been easier. All in all a very lovely stay. "
Sep 15, 2015 - Rochele D., Midland, TX



"Family Vacation
We stayed in Under The Sea for 4 nights. We loved the location the most! Easy access to the beach was a huge plus! The only thing that was disappointin was that the remotes for the TV did not work (they weren't even the right brand) and there was a cable missing for the DVD player. We have a 2 year old, so in the afternoons, it would've been nice to havE been able to turn on a movie to relax. Other than that, our stay was everything we hoped it would be and more! "
Aug 11, 2015 - , Forney, Texas



"Under The Sea 405BH stay
Our stay was very enjoyable. The condo was updated and very clean and the overall condo complex was kept in excellent condition - The trash cans were emptied every day, the BBQ grills cleaned out, and the pool was crystal clear. Our kids enjoyed the playscape and the walk across the boardwalk to the beach was both beautiful and an easy two minutes.

Updated condo. Very nice and comfortable. Easy access to beach. Loved it!"

"Nice Beach Getaway
This place was nicely updated with comfy beds and plenty of room. We loved sitting out on the patio watching the sun set over the water and walking down to the ocean at night to feel the cool waves on our feet. Overall a great little place."

"Updated decor and very clean!
I was pleasantly surprised with the condo (2BR 2BTH). It was nicely updated and very clean. My family and I went on the Memorial Day Weekend, and the pool was never crowded. It had easy access to the beach, and the grounds were were nicely kept. I would definitely stay here again."

"Sandfest 2015
Went with a group of 5 lady's. Plenty of space for sleeping, dining and relaxing. I have stayed at Beachhead several times. The over all location is great. Easy access to the beach via the boardwalk. Short walk to the Sandfest."
Apr 28, 2015 - Dolores G., Houston, TX



"Great Weekend!
Very clean, convenient and well-appointed condo for our family."
Aug 26, 2014 - Beth W., San Antonio, TX



"Great location, seriously understocked kitchen
The unit was clean and nice. And being near town with a direct boardwalk to the beach is the big selling point. Also, the pool is very well kept and better than most of the condo pools in that area. However, don't plan on cooking if you rent this unit. There are very few usable cooking tools in the kitchen. "
Aug 26, 2014 - Brendan M.



"Family Getaway
Our family has stayed at the Beachhead many times over the years and we always like it. The units have been nicely updated since our last stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend!"

"Granddaughter and Her Family Summer Vacation
Everything was as expected except for the Gulf view. I thought we would have a full view but only had a partical view from the far right on the balcony."

"Great place to stay!
Our Condo was upgraded and very clean. Loved our view from the balcony, beach was very close and the walkway there was very nice. "
Aug 01, 2014 - Andrea R., San Antonio, TX



"Exceptional value
We recently spent 3 days with our 2 granddaughters at Beachead. Under the Sea #405 was a treat. Everything was updated, clean, well maintained, well managed and well stocked with everything needed to make our stay stress free. Perfect location with lots of amenities and quick access to beach and town, yet still very private. We have moved this unit to the top of our list for future visits."

Aside from it costing more than I'd like, everything was great! It's a shame the condo didn't have the view I thought it did but that's the only thing to nit-pick. "

"Relaxing Retreat
The condo was very well equipped and comfortable. Just wish the weather was better but that's not a guarantee, right? :)"

"Vacation at the Coast
Our family rented two condos from PAE for 2 days in Nov. The condos and the stay and the weather was really great. We know that the property company owns several condo properties down there so it may be hard for them to know what each specific room has as far as furnishings. When we called to see if specific rooms have specific items the staff did not know so it was basically a **** shoot if a room had a iron, hair dryer or a slow cooker ect or not. As customers we need to know what to bring. In my opinion a very simple solution would be to audit each room create an MS Excel worksheet mark off the items that each room has so it can be easily searched by room number with ease. Nice condos!"

"Scorned
The property was great but management was a little rude and snoody. My daughters and I were swming in the pool five minutes after the pool closed we were asked to leave and the manager followed us down to the park area and watched us for At least 10 minutes. I felt like a child that was being disobedient. Not a way I want to feel while enjoying my vacation and amenities I paid for. Other than that experience the room and views were amazing. "

"Great unit. Nice updates, view,& family get-away. Need new couch.
This is a lovely unit. We arrived late Friday ans noticed the floors were very sandy. We called the management company the next morning and they sent cleaning staff right away. Very nice updates, nice private balcony view, pool is very clean and never crowded. Would rent this unit again. Now, for the negative: the couch in this unit is awful- you can't sit in it without it sinking all the way down above your knees. Also, there are no kitchen utensils to speak off- a few wooden spoons and a potato masher- that's it! So, cooking was a challenge. It would be nice to have a TV in the master bedroom."
Jul 19, 2013 - , SA, TX



"great location
The condo was surprisingly comfortable, and had plenty of additional beds that we weren't expecting. The kitchen was clean and had plenty of clean utensils and plates. We enjoyed the proximity to the beach and the access to the pool. The internet didn't work very well at all, which was a shame. And we found the keys they provided to not work very well with the front door lock ... and it was annoying to struggle to lock the door each time we left the condo. Other than that, this was a pleasant stay!"
Jun 11, 2013 - , Cypress, Texas



"Nice updated condo
We liked the condo, the king bed was very comfortable, and the trundle beds came in handy. The decor was updated and cheerful. Would have liked more of a view. The beach and water had a lot of seaweed, that was our only downside."
Jun 04, 2013 - Jackie W., Austin, TX



"sorry--bad review
We love Port A, and Beachhead is a great location(great ocean view). This is the second unit we have stayed in, and when staying a month, the furnishings leave a lot to be desired.
The bathrooms had been remodeled beautifully, but there was no drawer in the vanity or a medicine cabinet to keep the many toiletries one needs during a month. The towels were excellent.
The couch was unusable--if you sat down, you were lucky to get up again. Poor mattresses(the twin beds were too short for adult male).
There was something with the wooden floors--feet always got dirty--would have to wash bottoms of feet after walking on it(we didn't want to wear shoes and bring in sand).
Old tv(not great picture).
i know it's up to individual owners to replace furnishings, but it's too bad the rental office can't set some standards. We don't expect luxury, just comfortable!"

"Spring Break
This place was amazing and a great fit for my husband and kids. The condo was beautiful and had a great layout. I wish I would have taken more plasticware to not have to wash so many dishes but that was just something I did not think of. I think we will do it again next year! "

"Port Aransas GREAT Escapes
This was our first experience with Port Aransas Escapes and I have to say, it was a great one. The Condo was very nice and clean and was very close to shops, dinning, and grocery store. The grounds are well kept with a playground and direct beach access making it much very easy for our family to plan our day. The property was quiet and intimate and just what we were looking for. "

We usually stay at the beach-front Sand Piper so we were a little disappointed at the obstructed view of the Ocean and discouraged by the longer walk to the beach. Otherwise, unit 405BH was recently renovated with modern anemities which make cooking in the kitchen a pleasure. "

"Had a great time
Other than a problem with the tv and DVD player, this rental was clean and close to the beach"
Nov 08, 2012 - Judy M., Houston, Tx



"Thank You
Great stay. The staff was very helpful. The only complaint was that the room had three different remotes for the TV and none of them worked. We had to program one of them for the TV. "

"Beachhead in October
We had a great time and we will be back.
One suggestion, it would be helpful to have a little information in the condo as to where to find things to do and places to eat on the island."

"First time vacation to the gulf
We had a wonderful experience as first time vacationers to the coast!! Perfect location so close to the beach!! Very family friendly with a great little park in the center. The kids can easily stayed entertained. Loved our two bedroom condo with everything you need its like a home awat from home. Can't wait to go back, next time maybe without the kids!! I will definitely stay with them again!"

"Great family trip
I think that the condo is great for a family or even 2 families. It was an easy walk to the beach, and there were multiple bbq pits available for use. "

"July 2012 Port A stay
We had a really good time and the condo was delightful except the bed situation and it got remedied by the staff. We enjoyed our stay and would return again."

"Loved it!
We have stayed here before and it was just as great as last time. The place was clean and very nicely decorated. The only problem we had was that last time the DVD didn't work and this time we couldn't get the wifi to work but all in all it was very nice."

"Parking
You might try posting a sign with the phone # to have cars towed. We had a car behind us for 30 min at 830 at night and didn't know who to call."

"Port Aransas Vacation
Very pleasant and friendly location. The only thing lacking was a TV in the master bedroom, otherwise it was a great stay in Port A."

"Beach Head Condos
Excellant amenities, location and parking. Cant wait to return"
Apr 25, 2012 - James C., San Antonio, TX



" We visited Port Aransas with our friends. The Beachead condo's are located close to the beach and are well furnished. The Gulfview balconies are an added bonus. My kid said "This place feels like home". We will surely go back to this place again.
Great location. We were on the 2nd floor and when it rained on saturday, there was no covered walkway to reach our condo. We all got wet."

"My family always enjoy staying at Beach Head, but the room could use some updates, and the toaster did not work, but overall it was ok.

Lorna was extremely helpful in making the reservations and handling us with the weather issues. We had problem with our sink in room 407 but they responded and fixed it. Overall we were very pleased with the property and stay."

"Great location
We are very happy with the overall experience. I just wish that the person that checked us in was a little more accomodating. We arrived a little bit early - 3:00pm and she told us that we can't check in until 4:00. She then called at around 3:30 to tell us we can now check in. It was a little irritating after an 8 hour drive. The room was clean but had some crickets in the bedroom & bathrooms and trash from our room was never picked up. "

"Loved it!
Great experience. Great location. Helpful staff. When our toaster was broken, they had a replacement within the hour.
We will definitely go back!"

"Port A - A great place for families!
This is second year I have taken my daughter and my two grandsons (ages 9 & 6) to Port A. They actually requested to return this year. We played in the surf w/skim boards, tubes, etc. Flew kites, built sand castles and looked for shells. Restaurants are close and good food. We especially liked the Brewing Company pizza place. Saw beautiful sunset from Virginia's by the Bay. The Coldwell Banker people we dealt with were wonderful and so very helpful. Condo was large enough for us all and couldn't have asked for a better location. My 6 year old grandson says that the excitement of seeing your condo for the first time and getting a feel for the place is one of his favorite things. You passed his test. See you all at Port A next year!"

"Beachhead
Beachhead condominiums is a nice place for Port Aransas vacation. We rented 2 condos, stay at 405, and 406. VERY please with 406. The kitchen has been recently renovated and I love the style. Unit 405 on the other hand was very outdated and had a distinct old smell to it. I had a great time either way. The pool is just a regular pool but I had lots of fun there. I wished the volleyball court was filled with sand instead of shells. The picnic tables and outdoor grills were nice. Beach access is nice too. Overall I highly recommend this place. Please management, could you replace the shells and rocks on the volleyball court to soft sand. Thanks!"

"Relaxing Vacation
"
Mar 07, 2012 - Deborah M., Victoria, TX



"A Perfect Spot for Relaxation!
This location is perfect! It's at the Gulf and very conveniently located ~ near shops and restaurants. The Unit itself was very well maintained and comfortable. Furnishings looked as thought they had been recently added, and there was a freshness to the if it had been aired out frequently, and cared for with TLC! This is a very well maintained property, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a hassle-free vacation at the Gulf.
My only criticism: the front door doornob was loose and hard to manage. A replacement lock is in order. The deadbolt lock was very easy to lock from the inside, but not able to be locked with a key from the outside. I prefer double security, so these locks could definitely be looked at."

"Great location, very good ammenities
I took a group of people to stay in a couple of these condos, and we all had a great time. The walk to the beach is very easy (although we weren't carrying anything). We were all adults, but I could see this being great for a small family as well."

"We really enjoy the location and the facilities
The unit's general condition was ok. The AC unit drain tube clogged and leaked but staff did an excellent job of responding and getting it fixed. The only improvement would be updating the unit we rented and cleaning the carpets. The carpet needed some attention. Great location, good value, nice pool, lawns and bbq pits, can walk to the beach. Always enjoy our stay at the Beachhead. Property management reps were very helpfull. Hope to be back soon."

"Too Much $$ for Little
It takes the fridge 24hrs for temp changes to take affect so be prepared you food and drinks to be warm until the end of the next day, this should be done by the property since they know you are coming. We stayed here last same number of people year paid less for a two bedroom(1 queen/2 twins) condo was large and was right at beach entrance, this time reserved two bedroom(3 queens) condo was much much smaller for the price we paid, was told it was close to the beach entrance it we were three buildings away. First time we stayed there were told one price when we got were charged another, this time was told total was $X and reservation was $X got receipt by email 24hr later reservation was over by $50 and total was over by +$200. Called to get this correct and was told I had to call the next which I did and thankfully was fixed received 2nd email 24hr later showing correct amount. However, at the time of check (2 empolyees in office one at desk and one at a computer)office tried to charge the incorrect amount I informed them that they were incorrect and it wasn't until I pointed that out did the employee at the computer say that it was the incorrect amount that they just forgot to print/pull the correct information. From now on I will be choosing portaescapes or beachhead condo for our vacation rentals."

Room 405 was old and horrible, ac did not work, very few dishes, no view what so ever.Room 406 was great awesome, everything was new 405 sucks!"

"Peace and Quiet!
Beachhead Condo's were extremely quiet, and so close to the beach. It was exactly what I needed to unwind after a lot of stress this past year! I will be booking again! The only problem I experienced was that the kitchen floor was extremely sticky, and I had to buy cleaner and mop it thoroughly. Also, Under the Sea could do with an "updating" as fare as the decor is concerned. Despite those two issues, the peace and quiet made the stay worth the money!"
