Windsurfing & Kite Sailing: Padre Island is one of the best Windsurfing and Kite boarding destinations in the world, and this house has one of the best and most convenient launches on the Island. It's a 75ft walk from the garage to the walk-in launch (no sea wall). The launch is located on the point of land on the Island that reaches furthest out into the Laguna Madre so the wind shadow is minimized. The garage can store 14 rigged sails on hooks hanging from the ceiling. Watch your friends from the deck ! (If you know the Island, I don't mean to take anything away from 'The Flats', but as far as a launch that is close to your house and rigged gear, this is the best there is.)

Bird Watching: Padre Island is known for great bird watching. Visit the new $6.5 million dollar birding center just north of us. And we have a small wetland just behind our house that has offered an array of egrets, herons, Great Blue Heron, Rosy Spoonbills, Osprey, kingfishers and more.

This property is registered with South Padre Island Lodging Tax authority, Permit # 2015-243820.

Amazing!!!

We stayed for a week at The Blue House and it was beyond our expectations. The house was clean, the amenities were plentiful and the host Dave was so kind and went above and beyond for us. Everything worked perfectly. He had everything we needed and more. The house was spacious and we actually spent an entire day just lounging at home. We walked to the beach one day and it was maybe a 10 minute walk. Our kids took the kayaks out and had a blast. There were 8 people in our group 3 adults and our kids ranging from 19 to 5. We all agreed this was the best house we have stayed at. Oh and the fireworks from the front patio were perfect! No need to fight traffic and the crowds. Thank you so much Dave!! We are hoping to come back next 4th of July.

Outstanding Property!

About the host

Hosted by Dave Farmer

Gay and I have been traveling to Padre Island since the early 80's to windsurf and just enjoy the beach and Island. When we decided to build a second home, we looked all over but Padre was the obvious choice--and we couldn't be happier ! Our primary home is in Denver, CO,

Why they chose this property

Unique architecture and interior design takes maximum benefit of the views of the bay, sunsets and fireworks.

What makes this property unique

Access to the bay for water sports 70' from our door. We provide a tandem and a single kayak and two standup paddle boards. Also four 'Beater Bikes' !
