Great place for family and fishing!
The condo was great and very clean! Facilities have boat slips that’s can be reserved once on site and boat trailer parking (with appropriate permit tied to trailer).
Was perfect for my family and great location in the island!
We were extremely comfortable in this cute condo!! The view of the Laguna Madre was peaceful. Thanks for a great stay!

Above and beyond
The property looked just like the pictures! It was easy to find and check in! The property was well stocked with any kitchen accessory you would need to ease your stay and not have to eat out. Was comfortable and clean. There was a closet full of stuff to take with you on a beach day- wagon, chairs, etc. It made our first visit to SPI that much more comfortable and easy! The pool was so inviting and fun. We caught all kinds of fish right of the dock! Would definitely stay here again!

Perfect Reset
I hadn’t been back in 2 years! This was exactly what I needed to reminisce in my home town! Thank you for such a great experience and thank you for being so understanding at checkout! Will definitely stay again unless I am able to move back with my family. Hosts are very accommodating and respond quickly to any issues! Thank you again!
