The Dolphin Condo unit is equipped with an outside balcony with each private bedroom. Each of the two bedrooms has a queen-sized bed and private bath along with a closet. Between the two bedrooms is a "loft" area which contains two twin beds. All these are upstairs.
Downstairs the kitchen is fully furnished with a dining table which seats six and two chairs at the kitchen bar. There is a 1/2 bath downstairs along with washer/dryer.

The beach of South Padre, which is the most beautiful beach in Texas, and what SPI is noted for, is directly across Gulf Blvd. from the Dolphin Condo complex.
Other activities available are: para-sailing, sail-boarding, dolphin watching, the south Texas version of the nationally famous Schlitterbahn Water Park, and beautifully designed and challenging South Padre Island Golf Club. A short drive nearby lands one at the 45,000 acre Laguna National Wildlife Refuge for birdwatching and animal observance.

Hot tub and pool were great. The furniture is a little old but that didn’t deter us from having a good time. Plus all the reviews said that. Beds were comfy. Nice having three bathrooms. And big plus was easy access to the gulf and the free bus that takes you all over the island.
Thank you for allowing us to stay in your unit. We found the unit, the hot tub and the pool outstanding! The location cannot be beat! Virginia and Andres were very helpful in getting us situated. Thanks again!
Our host was very welcoming and and accomendating. Great guy! We had a small issue with some of the plumbing but we enjoyed our stay and would definetly go back again.
Very nice condo in very good condition and location. Close to restaurants and marina to access fishing guides. Laguna Madre fishing trip was great, surprising number of redfish, great water conditions. Will be back...

Thank you for your generous comments. I look forward to you spending another time with me in my condo.
Beach access was right across the street. Very handy and easy to get to. The place was very clean and the pool, hot tub and grounds were very well maintained. Close to the grocery store too. The only thing was the couch and chairs are old, dirty, worn and outdated. I would suggest putting in recliners and maybe a loveseat. Loved our stay there and hope to return again next year.
Everything in the condo worked as expected. Nice quiet location yet close to everything. Dennis was a particularly accommodating host and was easily available to help with our questions. He made an extra effort to let us know as soon as our condo was cleaned so we could get in earlier than expected.

A most courteous and kind person. Will definitely rent to them again.
Perfect location: grocery store, beach, restaurants and shopping all within walking distance!! This townhouse is huge and very well stocked. Pool area is nice with plenty of loungers. Lots of bang for your buck here! Way more than I expected for the price. Beautifully decorated with nice, comfy furniture. Definitely will look into staying here next time we’re near SPI.
Perfect place to stay for family of 6, ages 60-20. Walkable to beach, grocery store, and many bars and restaurants. Everyone could do what they wanted!

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
I loved everything from the beginning to the end. The owner communicated professionally, the unit was clean and we had everything we needed. When we return, we will choose this property and we have already shared the word. This was an amazing Anniversary trip that was well needed. Thank you for everything.
Pics didn't show much, but condo is clean, well stocked, just across the street from the beach access and so comfortable. Enjoyed our week there and highly recommend!
Property was as listed. Across the street from beach access, on the same road as the small grocery store, and in a great location. Property was clean and spacious. Would definitely recommend!
