Bay Tree D1 - Waterfront studio condo with amazing ship channel views, fishing deck, and resort amenities.

WHY GUESTS LOVE THIS PROPERTY
Bay Tree D1 is a peaceful, well-positioned studio condo with a spacious balcony overlooking the ship channel and a front-row seat to some of the best wildlife watching in Port Aransas — dolphins, sea turtles, pelicans, and coastal birds are regular visitors to the private marina just below. With a private lighted fishing pier, tennis and pickleball courts, and a community pool all steps away, this condo offers a relaxed, resort-style experience in one of the most charming corners of the island.

HIGHLIGHTS
- Spacious balcony with ship channel views and wildlife sightings
- Private lighted fishing pier for day and night fishing
- Community pool, tennis courts, and pickleball courts on site
- Boat slip rentals available with electricity and water
- Golf cart friendly community
- Winter Texans welcome

WHAT TO EXPECT
Step onto the balcony at Bay Tree D1 and the ship channel stretches out in front of you — a calming, ever-changing backdrop that makes this condo feel genuinely connected to the coastal environment. Bring your camera, because the sunrises and sunsets from this vantage point are spectacular, and the private marina below regularly draws dolphins, sea turtles, pelicans, and other sea birds that make every morning feel like a nature experience.

Inside, the studio layout is clean and comfortable with tile floors throughout, stainless appliances, and a well-equipped kitchen for preparing meals in. The king bed and queen sleeper sofa comfortably accommodate up to four guests, and the overall atmosphere leans toward the peaceful and unhurried — exactly what a coastal getaway should feel like.

Outside, the Bay Tree community provides everything you need for an active and enjoyable stay. Fish from the private lighted pier, lounge by the community pool, fire up the BBQ grills, or head over to the tennis and pickleball courts for a friendly match. With restaurants, nightlife, and the beach all just a short drive away, Bay Tree D1 strikes the perfect balance between quiet retreat and easy island access.
