⚠️ Important Payment Notice – Klarna / Affirm
Please note that reservations paid using Klarna, Affirm, or similar “buy now, pay later” virtual cards may decline during processing. There are two separate transactions for each reservation (one for VRBO service fees and one for the rental payment through SPI Rentals). Many virtual one-time card providers only authorize a single transaction, which causes the payment to fail. For this reason, we recommend that guests do not book using Klarna, Affirm, or similar services. If a reservation is attempted using one of these payment methods and the payment declines, the guest will be required to provide an alternative form of payment or cancel the reservation.

Even though it was less than a week stay, the house my family stayed at was outstanding. It was as if I were in a small village in a country by the sea. All my family enjoyed staying in the beautiful house with all the comforts of home. The fact that it was a short walking distance to the beach even made it better. Loved the stay!

Highly recommend renting from this local managing company!
Beautiful home in a beautiful gated area. It was clean, well stocked, and suited our family! Kids were safe, beach is right there. We watched Clayton's fireworks from the community pool. Private beach entrance is 3 minute walk and the home has everything you need to take to the beach. This is a luxury place with 3 stories so lots of stairs. SPI rentals is top notch and addressed all questions and issues immediately. Highly recommend renting from this local managing company!
Overall this listing would be great for a large family. We never used the entire house. But we loved it

Nice quiet area to enjoy with family. Pool was clean. The only few things trash can was not available when we arrived but issue was resolved quick. Wi-Fi never connected with our devices and we weren't able to open any balconies other than that stay was pleasant.

Good but not great
This is a good property in a great location. We had six people, with plenty of space to not feel crowded. Easy access to the beach, away from the crowds, and to the community pool.
The property was nice but could use some improvements. There were some spots where it look like it may have leaked previously, some minor issues with temperature but nothing that was terrible.
Overall this is a good family rental.

Great Rental
First time at South Padre so was very happy with location and beach access. House was super clean and huge. Management company is a lot to deal with though . Too many rules and hoops. Should I return to S padre I would avoid using them unfortunately.

It is also important to mention that the property you reserved is located within a private community overseen by an HOA.

If you choose to give us another chance, our team would love to assist you in finding the right property for your needs. Best regards, Ashleigh T., General Manager - SPI Rentals
The whole family loved it and the 3 minute walk to the beach was awesome. The only minor negative points were:
not enough garbage bags and dishwasher soap provided. We had a family of 7 and those two items were used quickly. Also, one balcony chair was broken and unusable. Staff was very accommodating and helped us out in a midnight emergency. Thank you!

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! We do apologize for the issues you encountered during your stay. Nevertheless, we hope we will have the chance to accommodate your family again with an improved experience. Regards, Marina L., Sales Manager- SPI Rentals team
This home is nestled in a private community with homes and condos with security and was the Perfect Place for 4 adults/4 teenagers. Since the Living area couch was not a pull out we purchased a blow up bed for one of the teenagers. This 3 level home was quite spacious! My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the 3rd floor bedroom with a King bed, walk in closet and on-suite with a walk-in shower and jacuzzi tub. The middle floor with good size kitchen with a quaint sitting area was perfect for breakfast and lunch time. The dining area was quite spacious as well and served us well for dinner. The living area with TV (a 65” would be real nice!) was nice to watch the Summer Olympics. Enjoyed Fireworks at the Beach Thursday & Friday eve from Clayton’s. The Beech access, Pool Access, Tennis/Pickleball access is real close to all condos/homes in the Villa Neighborhood. The kitchen was well stocked with every day eating ware and cooking items. Highly recommend this lovely place and we look forward to a future stay.

Location & Style
This location to the beach was the best it could be. The neighborhood and security is high class and wonderful. The girl who sat at the gate entrance was so very friendly and thorough at her job. We appreciated her. It was great to have a pool and hot tub so close to the home. It hardly felt like a rental but a home.
The house was nice but a few things would have been helpful. It was never noted that the stairway had the broken chair lift and took up half the walking space. This was a hazard for our age and for our young grandchild. We never found the downstairs bedroom tv remote. The cabinet in the Master bathroom was broken. The place was mildly clean, needs a good scrub down on the floors and trim. We were not given the garage remote which would have been helpful. We were not able to park in the garage due to all of the stuff inside the garage. It was a total surprise that the day before we would be required to drop by the office and verify ID. It was upsetting that they wanted to xerox my credit card and put it in their system. I am very worried that it will get hacked now. The desk said they will delete it out of their system in a week, however I am very doubtful. Thank you for asking.
