The Best Beach Experience In Port Aransas.
Palmilla delivers a VIP experience. Attendants prepare beach chairs, set-up umbrellas, offer menus and deliver chef-prepared meals right to your spot on the sand.
Palmilla also offers the only air-conditioned washrooms on the beach.

Originally designed by Arnold Palmer, Palmilla Beach Golf is the only True-Links style (think “St. Andrews”) course in Texas. The course borders the beach and offers spectacular views across the Gulf of Mexico.
Palmilla’s pristinely maintained course includes 9 holes, a driving range, a putting green plus “The Loop,” a 3-hole short course.

Enjoy two indulgent pools, both with private cabanas as well as chair-side food and beverage service.
The Oasis features serene lagoons, a zero-slope entry, a giant splash pad, and the only swim-up bar in Port Aransas, all thoughtfully designed for effortless enjoyment. Both the Oasis and the Seaside Pool are heated, offering the perfect retreat to unwind and relax in every season.
The OASIS Pool Expansion | Coming 2027
The OASIS is expanding. The new addition will include a new pool, private cabanas, and a refined bar experience – enhancing the resort-style atmosphere at the heart of Palmilla Beach. Designed to complement the relaxed rhythm of coastal living, the addition offers more space to unwind, gather, and enjoy time by the water.
