About this property

The Kingfish Cottage - 4BR/4BA - Come Home to the Beach!

Forget the sterile, isolated condominium: this recently-remodeled, spacious yet cozy beach cottage is guaranteed to make you feel right at home! With 4 bedrooms and 4 full baths, there's enough room for the whole family, while two fully stocked kitchens, two living rooms, and two dining areas mean you'll always have a place to spend time together. There's even a coffee maker for when you need a little boost to get you to the beach (which is less than a 5 minute walk from your door!), plus Smart TVs and Wi-Fi on days when you need a vacation from your vacation.

If you're in the mood to go out, there's good news! You're just minutes away from supermarkets, shops and stores, bars, and restaurants, many of which are within walking distance. You won't need a laundromat, though, since you've got access to a washer and dryer in the garage.

Even when you just want to stay in, we've got you covered. In your own backyard, you'll have access to a stunning covered outdoor seating area. If you're in the mood for a barbecue, you can perfect your recipe with a propane or charcoal grill. Sit under the stars with loved ones, or sit on the porch and watch the sun rise.

Spring Break Trip
Location of property was great! Super close to the beach and walkable distance from majority of bars and restaurants. The provided beach items and extra amenities were extremely helpful with our stay. We really enjoyed the large amount of space to hang out and get some rest. The kitchens weee also helpful for cooking meals. Communication with host was excellent. Any minor inconvenience was taken care of or addressed in a timely manner. Only issues we ran into were small inconveniences with cleanliness but was no issue to take care of. We would stay here again!

Much needed getaway.
This place was PERFECT for us. Great location. The house was exactly what we needed. If we didn’t have it, it was there. Grocery store and coffee right around the corner. Beach close by. It was cozy and homey. Already planning another trip and will use this place again.

About the host

Hosted by Kristin DeGroot

Host profile image
Hi, we're David and Dalice DeGroot! We bought this property to provide a haven on South Padre Island where we could pursue our artistic interests of writing and painting. After some major remodeling and decorating, it is becoming what we hoped it would be -- a place to rest and recharge!

Why they chose this property

We love this house because of the location and because of the cottage look on the outside, while inside it is decorated with a more modern look. It is also a great place for displaying our paintings.

What makes this property unique

The front porch provides a great place to take it easy while you take in the world. You can just see the ocean in the distance, and closer in, the folks walking to the beach provide people-watching entertainment.

On the summer weekends, the porch provides a great view of the Friday and Saturday fireworks.

SPI is one of the premier kite-boarding sites in the world, with enthusiasts coming from as far as Hawaii(!) for the exceptional beaches and the Laguna Madre.

It's also, obviously, one of the best sport and saltwater fishing destinations in Texas. You can go deep-sea fishing for about $1800, fish the Laguna Madre for redfish, trout, and flounder for about $350, or fish off the jetty or in the surf.
