Beachfront Home w/ Gulf Views, Boardwalk Access, Pool, and Pet Friendly

  • Waters Edge LC6 - Beachfront home with Gulf views, boardwalk to beach, pool, and pet friendly

    WHY GUESTS LOVE THIS PROPERTY
    At Water’s Edge, the Gulf isn’t just outside—it’s part of your stay. With oversized windows showcasing sweeping ocean views and direct boardwalk access to the beach, this home delivers a true beachfront experience with room for the whole family, including your pets.

    HIGHLIGHTS

    -Direct boardwalk access just steps from the beach
    -Community pool nearby for easy access

    -Open living space with large windows and natural light
    -Multi-level layout ideal for families and groups

    WHAT TO EXPECT
    The moment you step into the main living area, the view takes over. Floor-to-ceiling windows fill the space with natural light and give you a front-row seat to the Gulf, whether you're cooking in the kitchen, sitting down for a meal, or relaxing in the living room.

    The open-concept second floor is designed for gathering, with plenty of seating and a layout that keeps everyone connected. Upstairs, additional bedrooms provide space and flexibility for families or groups, while the ground-level king bedroom offers added privacy and easy access.

    When you're ready to hit the beach, the boardwalk is just steps away, no long walks or driving required. After a day in the sun, cool off in the nearby community pool or head back to the house to relax and take in the view.

    Located in the gated Lost Colony community, Water’s Edge offers a quieter coastal setting while still being a short drive to restaurants, shops, and everything Port Aransas has to offer.

Excellent beachfront property

Everything was as advertised. Beautiful home in excellent condition and very clean. Well stocked kitchen service was great; we had a problem using cable tv and they responded with a service man at night. Turned out to be just a reset which we could have done if we knew the system.

Family time at Waters Edge

We so enjoyed our annual family vacation at Waters Edge. It is perfect for our family of eight. It is quiet and right on the beach and the sound of the waves. Sunrises are beautiful and glorious! The only thing I would suggest is that there should be more hand towels for the bathrooms. There were only 3 hand towels and there are 6 lavatories in the bathrooms. Thank you for a wonderful time!!
