Loved It
We absolutely loved the property and will definitely stay here again. The location is great! You are very close to the beach, as well as everything else in town, and the neighborhood was very quiet. Our group loved the shaded back deck, and the pool was perfect. The property was very well kept and clean. The home's open floor plan is perfect for larger groups, and the mother-in-law suit also is very spacious. The vacation rental management staff were excellent, very friendly, professional, and made a lasting impression. Thank you all for making this a great family vacation; none of us wanted to leave.
Christina E from Bastrop, Texas - Posted: 8/25/2026
When nobody wants to leave, you KNOW it was a good vacation! We're so glad The Turtle Dolphin was such a great fit for your family. Between the quiet location, easy beach access, shaded back deck, pool, and plenty of room for everyone to spread out, it sounds like you made the most of your Port A getaway! And thank you for the wonderful words about our team—that means a lot to us. We're happy we could help make your family vacation a memorable one. Thanks for choosing Port A Escapes. We can't wait to welcome the whole crew back!

Family Vacay
Our stay was great, the house had everything we needed for our family trip. We had forgotten our child's pack n play, and we were so happy to find one in the house with also a bottle cleaner and bib for our baby. We loved the one-story layout for our toddlers and the easy walk to the second home in the back. It was a great open space and enough seating for the family. Would definitely rent this home again for our next vacation.

Wow...thank you for such a wonderful review! We're so happy to hear this home was such a great fit for your family vacation. It sounds like the one-story layout, open gathering spaces, and plenty of seating made it easy for everyone to spend time together. We're especially glad finding the pack n play and other baby essentials was a pleasant surprise—that's always a win when traveling with little ones! Thank you for choosing Port A Escapes. We truly appreciate your kind words and can't wait to welcome your family back for your next beach vacation!

Turtle Dolphin was great home
Enjoyed the Turtle Dolphin. Great location, house was clean. My family enjoyed our stay. The only downside was the pool is not heated. Beach is five minute drive away and the water was wonderful.

Beautiful home
The home was beautiful and large enough for all my family. The location was great and had a pool we all enjoyed. The only downside was the home only had 6 towels for a family of 11. I called the maintenance line and was told someone would be dropping some more off later, but no one showed. Also, there were no extra blankets or pillows in the home besides the thin ones on the bed so if you get cold might want to bring your own.

We are very sorry about the towels. We will work on improving this! Thank you for being our guest.

Spacious Tropical Treasure
Our rental was a home that had everything you would possibly need to enjoy a worry free and relaxing stay. The home was so spacious allowing a gathering space to entertain from the kitchen, dining and living room areas. The bedrooms were separated providing privacy and quiet from the main area. The casita on the property was a completely furnished space located steps from the home. A bonus for a single guest that always gets the sofa sleeper. We enjoyed beautiful weather and spent hours in the heated pool. My family will definitely book another stay in one of a kind rental.
