Great place to stay!!

We loved our stay!! Tons of room and the pool was fantastic! A little on the small side, so if there’s 10 people staying it would be kinda small, but for a few people it’s perfect!! Location is perfect and close to everything! Would 100% recommend staying here!

We had an amazing stay at this townhouse! We had 12 people and there was more than enough room for everyone! The house was very very clean, there were enough towels for everyone. Beds were super comfortable! We brought our own laundry detergent, dish soap, paper towels, toilet paper, and trash bags as there would not have been enough for the whole week, but that’s no big deal! The pool was perfect for our kiddos to play and lounge in at the end of the beach day. While it is walkable to the beach about 1.5miles, it was too hard with all the kids and all the beach gear so we would just drive unload and park on the street parking near the beach. We also had electric scooters, in case we forgot little things. We didn't want to loose our close beach parking. It was an amazing stay and if we go back, we would definitely stay there again! It was definitely worth the price we paid. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Thank you for such a wonderful and thoughtful review! We’re so happy the home gave your group of 12 plenty of room to spread out and enjoy your vacation together. It’s especially great to hear how clean and comfortable you found the home, and it sounds like the private pool was the perfect way for the kids to wind down after your beach days! Hearing that you felt the home was a great value and that you would stay with us again means so much to our team. Thank you for spending your South Padre Island getaway with us, we’d love to welcome your group back for another amazing stay!

Our family was very pleased with this vacation rental. The house was very clean; spacious; well stocked; and conveniently located to everything, but located off the busy road. Several of the public beach access points are within walking distance. We had so much fun hanging out in the pool every evening. We absolutely loved this house! We will definitely book with SPI Rentals for our next trip to the island.

Beautiful property and very clean and quiet. Do have to bring literally everything with you (salt/pepper, etc). This was surprising given the cost of the unit. The private pool was lovely and clean, albeit small.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're glad to hear you found the property beautiful, clean, quiet, and enjoyed the private pool during your stay. We also appreciate you bringing the kitchen supplies to our attention. We do provide salt and pepper grinders for our guests, and we apologize if they were empty or not properly stocked when you arrived. We'll be sure to share your comments with our housekeeping team so we can help prevent this from happening in the future. We're sorry your stay fell short of the experience you were expecting, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. We hope you'll consider giving us another opportunity to provide you with a five-star stay in the future.
