The Space:

Why stay in “the same old” condo when you can stay in a cool & fairly original beach house just 3 to 5 mins walk from the beach?



Although no pool, the beach is just so close, no need.



Little Caribbean Vibes affords a cool, clean, and vibrant spot with its colors & décor. It is elevated about 12 feet up on piers, there's a shaded chill-out space under the home to enjoy a margarita and relax after a long beach day that is shared with the back 3 bedroom, or the private front deck with a couple of chairs to watch the passersby.



The real question is, why book here?



1.) We are a professional, local host that cares about you. We have an office if you need us, and can be assured of a standardized clean process. To me, cleanliness really matters

2.) Unique. I think booking a rental instead of a hotel is an adventure we hope is fun and unique. Plus – the kitchen for families truly saves money

3.) How close we are to beach here. East side of the busy Padre blvd so taking yourself or kiddos to beach super easy. Still super walkable to bars and restaurants

4.) Multiple bedrooms at this price point can’t be beat vs a hotel that has no privacy



Features:



*Free Parking Off Street – 2 cars back to front



* The bedroom and living room areas are clean with laminate and tile flooring. The home feels both 50 years old and new at the same time 



BBQ pits or grills are allowed though (not provided), as long as done on ground level and not on deck nor under home - but you must clean up thoroughly when done. BBQing is only allowed in front of the property.



This is the front unit with a kitchen and bathroom. Kitchen is fully equipped for you to make easy breakfast tacos to your house recipe vacation nachos! Just so you know, each unit in the duplex is private and stand-alone; the back unit is a separate 3-bedroom, 2-bath space.



While we allow up to 6 people in the front unit, it is better suited for 4 or 5. If you're a couple with small children, 6 people total can work.



The condo has smart TVs for winding down after a long day in the sun



Contactless check-in with an electronic lock, or you can check in at our nearby office at South Padre Trips if you prefer



Lil Caribbean Vibes is perfect for those who appreciate the charm of retro beach houses. If you have a group, the back house can be reserved for the night owls while the front space is for quieter guests or vice versa.
