Paved sites, palm trees, and a boardwalk over the dunes define the experience at Gulf Waters Beach Front RV Resort in Port Aransas, Texas. This full-hookup RV resort sits between Cinnamon Shores North and South along the Gulf Coast, with electric, water, and sewer connections at every site. The resort operates year-round and accepts reservations, which reviewers strongly recommend securing in advance since sites fill consistently across seasons.
The sites themselves are a notable feature. Each is individually owned, and many come equipped with outdoor kitchens, palapa-style gazebos, propane fire pits, and paved surfaces with cement picnic tables. Several sites overlook onsite ponds, giving those spots open sightlines across the water without leaving the park. "Full hookup sites located between manicured lawns and palm trees," notes Gonzo G., who also reported four to five bars of cell reception throughout the property. WiFi is available at each site as well.
Beach access runs through a dedicated boardwalk that crosses the dunes directly to the Gulf. Reviewers consistently mention the walk as easy and short. The resort also has a heated pool, hot tub, and well-maintained shower facilities, with multiple campers noting the grounds are kept clean. Fishing, kayaking, and swimming are all accessible from the property. Pets are welcome.
Campers looking at camping near Port Aransas will find this resort among the more amenity-heavy options in the area, alongside nearby properties like Pioneer Beach Resort to the northeast. If a longer stay is on the table, Gulf Waters rewards it.
