Mar Tortuga

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Gulf Shores has everything you need to slip right into the coastal lifestyle, especially when you make this fantastic retreat home for a while! Mar Tortuga is anything but your average getaway, as you will be spoiled in no time with the spacious interior, central location, and easy access to the sugar-white sand of the gulf. As soon as you step foot inside, you will see that this home is more than ready to assist in entertaining the whole family with ease. Hop into the luxurious full kitchen and take advantage of the stainless steel appliances, ample cookware, stunning countertops, and dishwasher to show off your cooking skills with ease. The rest of the gang will love hanging out in the living room with a movie playing on the flatscreen TV or at the dining table for a game night.

When the sun starts to go down, bring a cocktail out to the furnished deck and watch the pink and orange haze of sunset disappear. A long walk on the dan is never a bad idea either, as you have direct beach access from the back door! This is a truly unique coastal getaway, so book your stay while it lasts!

Wonderful family time
This was our second time at Mar Tortuga. The home is beautiful and large enough for our extended family. The number of bathrooms is perfect. We wanted a less crowded beach area, and we had it all to ourselves. The boardwalk is great! The kitchen is well stocked. The covered and open decks are really nice to use. We caught a variety of fish for dinner right from shore. The drive is quick and easy to groceries, restaurants and shopping, yet the house is just past the more commercial or congested area. Most beds are comfortable. We would love to visit again!

Mar Tartuga
The house is in a great location fronting an uncrowded beach. The house has large rooms and all amenities you would expect. We especially like the porch/patio area, the large dining/living area, and the three full baths.
