Turtle Ransas in May

Great stay. House had everything we needed and plenty of parking. One of the closer homes to the boardwalk and a small view of ocean from the patio! Lots of indoor and outdoor dining seating options, separate living room spaces upstairs & downstairs for kids and adults to enjoy time away from each other

Family beach trip

The house was amazing and had plenty of room for our 11 people. The location of this house is great! Walking distance to the beach and pool. The community has everything you need to never have to leave. The House was fully stocked with everything you could need for your stay. Will definitely be back!

Beautiful Home!

Beautiful home! Bathrooms are gorgeous and kitchen is well equipped. The pools are great for little kids and the swim up bar was a nice feature for the adults. Starbucks truck in the neighborhood was a nice treat. Walkable Reds Bar and Black Marlin restaurant. You will not need to leave the neighborhood as it really has everything you need. I’ll definitely be referring this home to Friends and Family and we’ll be back for sure.

Beautiful home/Misleading photos

The house was amazing. Beautifully designed and decorated and well appointed. HOWEVER, the photos show a beautiful view of the beach. There is a fully constructed house now sitting directly in front of the house blocking the view of the beach on all three levels.

Beautiful Home Away from Home

Beautiful home away from home! Great for our family with teen, adult children, and young grandchildren. Main living space for all 10 of us never felt cramped. Kitchen well appointed. Plenty of bathrooms/showers and comfy sleeping spaces. Has lots of toys for young ones and games and puzzles for the older. Outside decks are inviting esp 3th floor one. No beach toys but Dollar General or the Texan are close. Resort amenities are nice, clean, walkable, while beach is an easy walk or golf cart ride away. Recommend renting one for at least a day just for the fun of it and convenience for beach. If came back this way would definitely stay at Turtle Ransas again.

Perfect family vacation home!

First of all, wow! What a stunning home. It was setup perfectly to accommodate 3 families (each of the rooms boasting their own private bathroom) and even a secondary bathroom on the main entertaining floor. Kitchen was well equipped with everything you need to make meals, and even had a welcome basket with popcorn and treats that were a nice touch! Vacasa and Palmilla Guest Services were great to deal with. They provided easy access to booking a golf cart (highly recommended for getting to the beach and Oasis pool/on-site dining). Looking forward to staying again next Summer!

Dirty

This home was much dirtier than one would expect. Mold on toilets and lots of dirt and dead bugs on the floor. Bunk room is very cute and wallpaper through the home was charming. Kitchen was not as well equipped as most other vacation rentals.

Thanksgiving with extended family!

This was the perfect home for our family. My sister and her family own the home a few doors down and we loved being able to easily come and go. The house is beautiful and perfectly stocked with everything you will need. We will definitely be renting this again.

Breathtaking home within walking distance to the beach.

Walking into this beautiful home felt like stepping into a luxurious beach getaway. The decor and ambiance were absolutely stunning and made you feel instantly that you were ready to relax and unwind from the stresses of daily life. The bedrooms were spacious and the bunk room was a lot of fun for the kids with games, puzzles and a fun nautical theme. The kitchen had everything we needed and was open to the living and dining room, which was nice when preparing and sharing meals. My family will definitely stay here again when returning to Port Aransas!

Our favorite place to stay at Palmilla!

My family and I really enjoy staying at the Turtle Ransas property at Palmilla. We have stayed multiple times and we really love the way the home is setup with a bunk room for our children and a great layout with two patio areas. The location is very close to beach access and the home has wonderful amenities and covered parking! We look forward to staying again soon!

We stay at the beach a lot and this is by far the cleanest and best lay out of a house for multiple families. The views were very pretty and the location was great!
