About the host
Hosted by Ruth
Hello! My name is Ruth. I love to travel and host.
Why they chose this property
My husband and I designed and custom built this house to be our forever home. Life has moved us away from South Padre Island but the island will always have a special place in our hearts.
What makes this property unique
This house was designed with entertaining and family gatherings in mind. It sits on a quiet neighborhood and has a large backyard. The downstairs living area has a large sliding door which can be opened to create a unique indoor/outdoor space where families and friends can hang out, relax and enjoy the island breeze.
