With 34 miles of beautiful white sand and clear emerald water, South Padre Island is one of the world's most exquisite barrier islands – and the only tropical Island in Texas. Calm weather and water and more than 300 days of sunshine make South Padre Island a great place to live and visit all year. It's more than just a beach, it's filled with history, ecotourism at the Sea Turtle rescue, surf lessons, fishing, some of the best sandcastle building in the world, and full of Southern hospitality. There is a free bus system called the Wave, but I highly recommend renting a car for getting around.

Perfect Group Getaway

We had an extended family vacation and this house was perfect for that. We loved how close it was to the beach to hang out and build sand sculptures and then heading back to the pool and spa to relax. We didn't rent a car and it went fine. Between the golf cart, bikes, walking and free bus service we easily got everywhere that we wanted to go. Would totally stay there again.

Great Rental Home in South Padre Island, TX

Great home for a large group. Plenty of space, bedrooms, bathrooms (very nice bath towels also) and beds! Additions that clinched this deal for us was the inclusion of a golf cart, plenty of beach chairs, beach mats, beach umbrellas, and BEACH/POOL TOWELS! Excellent heated pool and hot tub, beautiful outdoor space with plenty of outdoor furniture. Trees and plants surround the backyard also. Two front load washing machines and front load dryers. Two water heaters provided plenty of hot water (we had 14 family members). Well-appointed kitchen with adequate dishes, bowls, cups, flatware, pots, pans, cooking utensils, blender, toaster, double oven, microwave. Large dining table with lots of chairs. Comfortable living room also. Another great addition is refrigerator/freezer in the garage. Beach access right across the street. We did have a few hiccups, but the host was very responsive and these issues were remedied quickly! We would stay here again if our travel plans took us to SPI again!

THE PERFECT BEACH GETAWAY

We absolutely LOVED this home!!! This was the perfect place to spend a short weekend with friends to enjoy sun, drinks, and memories that will last forever. Even though the beach was a minute walk away, we especially enjoyed the beautiful pool and the wonderful amenities included!! This home has everything you could possibly need for a beach or pool day, (the number of beach towels were a life saver). We are so excited that we have found a reliable beach home that works for both an adult trip and a family trip.

Great House and a Great Location

For us, this house checked all the boxes. We had age ranges from 1-74. It was a few minutes walk to the beach and the golf cart was convenient for us to haul everything we needed. We also didn’t have to bring any beach supplies with us except umbrellas, so that was really nice. You are within walking distance to a lot of places. Communication from the property manager was excellent!
