Immaculate, tons of amenities and great location
Better than advertised. This place is huge, immaculate, tons of amenities, great location. Quick beach access to a beautiful beach. Easy communications. I'd stay here again for sure.
We loved, loved, loved this property! Our extended family visited for our kids' spring break. The property was perfect! Spacious and clean and proximate to the beach and restaurants.

Spacious, clean & in great location
Great Location! Steps from a gated pool, baby pool and hot tub. And a quick walk to the beach! Garage is stocked with beach supplies (toys, tents, wagon, chairs). Spacious and clean, this house is great for our small family reunion.

Super nice facility we stayed at and also everyone was so very nice and very helpful
At SPI
We loved the property, private beach access, and proximity to the pool. Would have appreciated an extra roll of paper towels, and towels to dry dishes, but overall great experience. Would book the space again.
Lovely time at the Tortuga by the Sea rental. It was better than expected. Beautiful, comfortable home with great attention to detail. Great for large groups to be together and have privacy with the great layout of bedrooms. Clean, convenient and just a two block walk to the beach.

Tortuga by the sea rating
My family and I really enjoyed our stay at this rental. The staff is and helpful and we were able to get in early. The bunk bed room is perfect for my three granddaughters. It's a beautiful house, close by the ocean. We have stayed there for the last few years and will continue to keep staying there in the future. Everyone had a great time!

Absolutely enjoyed this lovely home. Beds were comfortable, spacious rooms throughout, quick service for any maintenance needs, and great beach access. The only downfall was the pool was not heated. Thanks!!

Perfect house for our family
This house was huge and so convenient for going to the beach or pool, roughly 1-2 minutes each. Having 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms was perfect for our three teenage daughters. The house was very clean and well stocked with towels and toiletries. We also had a sense of safety with it being in a gated community. Can't wait to go back to SPI and stay at this house.
We highly recommend this property.
The space is huge - plenty of room for the group of 10 of us. We enjoyed the community pool - actually we were the only ones at the pool all week! Easy beach access - we walked the beach every day, but with windy conditions, relaxed poolside rather than beachside. The host was accessible and responded immediately to all questions. I suggest people read all of the information before booking - the community to very strict about guests and does not allow others to visit property. We have family in the area and they were not allowed to visit our rental home. This is clearly outlined in the property details. It would have been nice to have some flexibility with this; however, I understand why this is the case given spring break crowds. Overall - beautiful home and great location. We would definitely stay here again.
Every year we go to South Padre we rent this property and love it. It holds our large family and is beautifully decorated! It's a close walk to the beach and everything we need! Love our beach trip!

Perfect place
The house was perfect for 2 families with 6 kids. Great space for the kids to be kids and enough room for both families with separate living areas. Rental company was great to work with. We ran out of LP gas and they had someone bring a replacement right away. Location is great!
This property was so comfortable. Excellent floor plan for a group of three couples. Huge kitchen, dining area, gathering great room area. Excellent house size for spreading out and having your own space when you wanted. Great beds, bathrooms, well equipped kitchen (with the exception of too few dish towels provided, though not an issue). Very clean!

Lacks the Basics
I was torn between Average and Below Average rating and here is why. Our flight arrived later in the evening, we had to pick up the garage door opener from the SPI location that definitely was a little off the beaten path or maybe just a hang out for workers?
As for the actual location and stay. The set up was nice, beds were actually comfortable. The things that I have experienced at many other home rentals were definitely less than favorable. Simple things like: coffee filters for the coffee pot, salt and pepper, the pots and pans were well well used, we are at the beach, but no beach towels, all the beach essentials stated that were for us to use were completely broken down from the chairs to the umbrella. Definitely a beautiful house, but what we would consider the basics were not included.

Great vacation house
We had a wonderful time at the Tortuga by the Sea. It is a large, cozy home with all the needed amenities for a vacation. My family enjoyed the proximity to the beach, the community pool, and the security offered by this property. The management company did a great job making the house charming and hospitable. We hope to make it back again soon.
This was one experience that my family and I will not forget. If I can rate this place a 10 out of 10 I would. Thank you for making our vacation an excellent experience.
