Beautiful Property - Excellent Location

We loved the home. It's comfortable and well decorated and would not only stay here again but would recommend it to others. The only thing that was less than perfect was a tech issue with the TV upon arrival and the owner wasn't easily assessable due to her traveling overseas at the time of our visit. However, she more than made up for it by providing her cell number which proved to be the only reliable way to communicate. Thanks - it was a great get-away!

About the host

Hosted by Julie Levy

Host profile image
I live in Austin, but I grew up close to South Padre Island. I LOVE being able to return, see my family and be at the beach. It's fun to host and share our condo.

Why they chose this property

I was looking for a newer condo with better construction than many of the condos I stayed in that were constructed in the 1970s and 1980s. It was constructed in 2006. The pool, very close access to the beach, and the intimate porches with lots of greenery and flowers made me feel this was the perfect place for our family.

What makes this property unique

Small dogs are allowed. High ceilings makes it feel even bigger than it is. Two reserved parking spaces.
