Get the whole crew together for a beachside vacation they will never forget when you book your getaway to this South Padre Island rental. Boasting room for eight guests to enjoy the pool and prime location, this is the ideal spot for groups and larger families.

Set just a block from the beach and within a short walk to dining destinations and shopping spots, this home makes it easy to dive into the action. Book a parasailing adventure to go sky-high and feel the wind in your hair. Set out on a fishing charter excursion, then take everyone out to a mouthwatering meal at one of the beachfront restaurants close to home.

Let the private washer/dryer take care of dirty clothes while you play one of the provided board games. Head down to the refreshing pool to float the day away, or coll down with the central A/C at home while you surf the cable channels. Use the charcoal grill to BBQ your fresh catch. Connect to the free WiFi to stream some tunes while you get busy on the side dishes in the fully equipped kitchen. Unwind on the balcony and plan the next adventure as the day fades away.

Whether you're exploring the local nightlife, hitting the beach, or lounging by the pristine pool, this Texas home will make sure your next getaway is fun-filled and hassle-free!

Things to Know:
* We welcome winter Texans in this home.

**** Please note, Texas weather brings pesky insects, and while we strive to ensure your stay is as pleasurable as possible, we are not able to control the elements that attract insects to the outdoor/indoor areas. All properties do utilize pest control maintenance regularly, BUT this does not guarantee pests or bugs will not be visible.
** The host does not always guarantee stable wifi services during your stay. This may also affect television streaming services.

NO PARTY POLICY: This home maintains a strict no-party and no-spring break policy. Our local South Padre Island team monitors compliance with our rental policies and responds promptly to any complaints from neighbors. If any guests are found to violate these rental policies, it will result in eviction without a refund. If you have any questions or concerns about your compliance, please get in touch with us right away so we can ensure you have a safe and happy vacation.

We’re excited to inform you that this unit utilizes a comfortable style of bed-making known as Triple Sheeting. Triple Sheeting is proven to be more hygienic and is used by five-star hotels around the world. It consists of a fitted sheet, a flat sheet, a blanket, and finally a decorative top sheet.
Due to this change, the pictures for this home may not accurately represent the bedding that will appear during your stay. This has not affected any other amenities or the amount of beds available.

Nice

The proximity to the beach was awesome! Being able to walk back to the house and get into that small dipping pool was also wonderful. The house stayed nice and cool, and had plenty of bedrooms for Family. The house was a little rundown on the inside with water leaks, Little bit of a funky smell, and peeling paint. Which is why I gave it four stars instead of five. But overall it was a good stay, and we felt safe in the neighborhood.

Family getaway

It was a beautiful weekend but the only downfall for us especially having 3 grandchildren ranging from age 5-10 who were most excited about grandma and grandpa getting a beach house, was the pool not in service until the following day. The plan was to get as much use of the swimming pool before we headed home. Other than that, it is a beautiful property.

Good location but needed a few things

It felt like they were not quite ready for renters - there were issues we communicated with the main office and they passed them along to local team, the good thing is they did respond and fixed things like leaking toilet and wobbly ceiling fan, and need for more hangers and toilet paper.The outside areas could be hosed down and chairs cleaned before someone comes. There were white specs on the carpeting upstairs. The kitchen was well stocked. The location is perfect, close to beach and grocery store and many restaurants. We did not need to rent a car.

Nice

House was very nice and we loved having a private pool. House was clean but the bunk bed was very unsafe. The top bunk was only held up by one board in the middle. The pool was also pretty murky after a few days. I don’t think the filter worked at all. Contacted the host but nothing ever happened.

Nice place but...

The upstairs a/c was not working and we could barely sleep at night. They sent an a/c guy but he couldn't fix it. The pool was nasty because the pump was not working. One of the toilets was broken.

PICTURE perfect but....

Overall the stay was good. The home needs owner maintenance. There was a huge hornet nest right above the pool. The chairs on both balconies were outdated and unfunctional. The washer machine door was broken and we couldn’t get our clothes and towels out. Things were falling and coming apart just by glance. Nothing that can’t be fixed. I highly suggest the owner comes to the property at least once a year to assess improvements and invest back into the home.

Muy buena opción

Muy limpia, excelente ubicación, todo le funciona muy bien… en las fotos se veia mas chica la alberca pero si esta de buen tamaño… una recomendación seria cambiar el asador.. o llevar el tuyo… el patio de atras no esta muy grande.. solo para que lo tomen en cuenta…

Christmas vacation

The home was in a great location. It was in a quiet neighborhood and short walking distance to the beach. The grocery store was also within walking distance. We were able to walk around most of the island from the house. The house was clean and comfortable. We had 6 adults and had plenty of room.

Great stay!

We had a great time here. We didn't want to leave. The house has a few cosmetic issues like paint chips but is otherwise a great place. Alot of space to hold your stuff. Perfect location! Walking distance to a grocery store, the beach, many souvenirs shops, lots of activities and bars and restaurants. The pool is kinda small but the kids loved it. We loved staying here and if we go back to south padre we will definitely look to book this home!
