Testimonials

Thoroughly Enjoyed the House! Plenty of Room, close to Beach!
by Sue on 03/04/2019
We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the house. There was plenty of room. Being a close walk to the beach was also great! It was very clean and well stocked, and the decor was very nice also. Sue and Jim

Exceeded expectations
by Jack on 01/08/2019
This is a great property for a family vacation. Very clean, well appointed and roomy. The area is quiet and well secured. There are a lot of stairs, so not recommended for people who have a problem with that, but it wasn't a problem for the seven of us. Very enjoyable experience, and we'll probably return.

The perfect escape from the city!
by Daniel on 10/11/2018
The house is tremendous, the beach is great and my 4 kids enjoyed very much, that of course they didn't wanted to leave the house, we hope come back soon.

Guest Review
by Katherine Lisa on 06/28/2018
The house is very nice, beautifully decorated and clean. It had everything we needed in it and there was plenty of space for the whole extended family. We loved playing at the beach, swimming in the pool and coming home to a pleasant, comfortable house. We will be back next year.

Perfect
by Karrie on 06/02/2018
We enjoyed our stay in South Padre. The SPI team made sure we were taken care of for the duration of our stay. The house was clean and well stocked with bath and beach towels as well as kitchen appliances and beach gear. The gas grill, picnic table and chairs on the back patio were a great bonus. We would definitely stay in this house again. The easy access to the beach and pool were fantastic and if you have a group of kids or teenagers with you, the one bedroom on the second floor is perfect!
