Nice property, great for a family.

Overall, the location and amenities were good. There are extra beach supplies such as chairs and a small umbrella. The pool was small but nice, and it was great to have two bathrooms. The kitchen wasn't as stocked as I expected. The host is very responsive.

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.
