This is an amazing location. The property is clean. It has three bathrooms and plenty of sleeping space. It has a beautiful porch that’s great for people watching, and the beach is directly across the street and past the palms resort. Definitely going to have this saved for our future trips to SPI.

Peaceful beach house

We were a bit nervous because we were coming to SPI during spring break and I was worried about crowds and noise. The house was tidy and exactly as advertised. The neighborhood, even in spring break, was quite quiet and we had a restful vacation. The beach by this cottage was not crowded, quiet, and beautiful.

People coming in our rental

Was not happy when the gardener invaded our place we paid good money to rent. Also a lady stopped over and started to head for the locked door when she saw us and stopped, making up an excuse of checking to see if the plants have bloomed in the yard beyond the locked door. We wondered if someone had come into the rental. Was very uncomfortable with this.

Great location and very spacious

Overall the property exceeded expectations in terms of size and location to the beach. Trash bin was overfull upon arrival which made it difficult to secure our own trash in it with the wind on trash day. The front shower didn’t drain very well. The AC stayed on and blew cold but never seemed to be able to hold a steady comfortable temp even at night. There was a strong odor of fish from the freezer area upon arrival. The property itself was acceptable but for the price and description one would expect a little better deep cleaning, updating, and dusting to be accomplished upon arrival. If professionals are being paid to clean this property they aren’t doing a good job. The location to the beach however couldn’t have been better and helped us cope with the other issues mentioned.

This house was perfect. Right across from the beach access. So close to restaurants and stores, we were able to walk everywhere, only got into our car once the whole time. We only had one car but there was space for 3. The beach is just beautiful!

a rare find on South Padre Island

With so many condos, motels and apartments covering the SPI beach, it's amazing that you get an ENTIRE HOUSE with a beach view and just steps from a lovely piece of SPI beach. Christine was incredibly easy to reach and was so accommodating. There is so much privacy in this 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom house, and the backyard/courtyard is huge! Big patios on both sides of the house made for excellent views of the beachside waves and bayside fireworks (every Tuesday during summer). We loved everything about this place and would definitely book again.

SPI Birthday Get Away

The house was nice and location was perfect. We traveled by air and the owner let us know a few days before our stay that we had to provide our own paper goods and we should bring some from home due to possible shortages in the area. We were expected to take the trash out, which we did, but there were no garbage bags to replace the 1 that was provided. Also, dishwasher was there, but no dishwasher detergent, I have never stayed in a vacation home where paper goods and cleaning supplies were not provided. For the price we paid, the owner should provide these items.

Perfect property for our family

We have been on three beach vacations as a whole family - my 4 kids, husband, and husbands parents and myself. This one was by far the best one we have been on! The property has absolutely everything we needed/wanted. You are literally directly across the street from the beach access. It was SO convenient. We left our towels at the house, went to the beach, came back to the house and used the outside showers to get the sand off and then used our towels there at the house. There was no need to pack up a ton of things for the beach because the house was so close we would just walk back if we needed something. The beach was very clean, so many shells to hunt for the kids. The beach extended so far into the ocean you could walk for a ways before it got deep, another plus for the kids. The island had several other things to do in the evening, we went and rode go karts, took a bay fishing trip, went to turtle inc, and went to several souvenir shops. The back patio has an amazing and large table, but there aren’t any chairs to enjoy that space so bring some chairs because it is seriously an amazing space. The entire “yard” is walled in, with a locked door to come into the yard so our kids enjoyed playing outside and we didn’t have to be right next to them the whole time. The only complaint I would have was that there weren’t very many wash cloths for the bathrooms, we only found 3. And there was no wash cloths/sponges for the kitchen. But that was a VERY minor inconvenience for this amazing property!
