About the host

Host profile image
I am an island person born and grew up in Puerto Rico. Marriage brought me to Dallas area but my body and soul always pulled me towards the ocean. I chose South Padre Island because the beaches and the ocean are the best of Texas.

Why they chose this property

The city of South Padre Island has many activities for all age groups. We wanted to be a part of this wonderful vacation spot where there’s deep sea and bay fishing, dolphin watch tours, and many other water activities. There are dozens of fantastic restaurants to choose from and nothing compares to the seafood of the Gulf of Mexico! Watching the amazing sunrises and sunsets over the Gulf of Mexico and the Laguna Madre Bay are a special treat! There’s always something to do here, no matter what time of the year. We hope you’ll come choose to stay in our relaxing “Little piece of South Padre Island”, down in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas!

What makes this property unique

This 1 bed/1 bath will sleep 6 with a queen bed, twin bunk beds and a sofa sleeper. Full kitchen utensils, microwave, dishwasher, pots & pans, coffee maker and more! We provide all linens and towels, paper towels, toilet paper as well as beach towels and beach chairs!
