Nothing says relax in style with high-end appliances and a location to-die-for like Sunset Castle! This family-friendly, two-story home offers something unique that can't be simply found anywhere–jaw-dropping views of the bay, a waterfront private pool, and exclusive amenities. The first and main level of the home boasts a marvelous open layout with dark wood accents and tiled floors throughout the home, providing a classic and elegant charm. You won't believe the living room area. It comes equipped with comfortable furnishings strategically located in front of a large, wall-mounted flatscreen TV with cable. You'll notice elegant decor throughout and wall-to-wall windows that will light up the entire floor with natural light.

You'll have a dining area featuring a polished and large dining table with unobstructed views of the pool and nearby bay. Nothing beats having a delicious meal accompanied by an unparalleled view. Right next to the dining area is the gourmet kitchen, which will delight everyone in the group, especially the chef! This kitchen has everything, and we really mean everything, that you need to make cooking a breeze and an unforgettable experience. There is plenty of space to move around freely while cooking and enough cabinets to store all of your groceries and goodies. The granite countertops are a delight as well. Some of the unique, stainless steel appliances you'll find here are a French door fridge, two ovens, a cooktop with an integrated range hood, a dishwasher, two coffee makers (one of them a Keurig), and a kitchen island. If the fridge is not enough to store all your goodies, you'll find a regular, full-size fridge in the laundry room, where there is also a washer/dryer combo.

Right off the main living area is the patio, which is simply a wonder. It's partially covered and offers an outdoor dining area along with a seating area with comfortable outdoor furniture. The waterfront outdoor pool will be everyone's best friend when it's time for a refreshing splash. You can already tell Sunset Castle is all about comfort and relaxation.

Back inside, climb up the elegant spiral staircase and you'll find yourself on the upper level of the home. The first space you'll come across is a living area, perfect for family gatherings if you're not in the mood to go to the first floor. It's equipped with recliners, a wall-mounted flatscreen TV with cable, and a wine fridge. The main bedroom offers endless privacy and comfort with a large, wall-mounted flatscreen TV, a telescope pointing at the water, a desk and a comfortable desk chair, a tremendous waterfront balcony, and a full en suite bathroom that is simply wonderful. The bathroom has tiled floors and walls, spacious double sinks sharing a large mirror, a tiled walk-in shower, and a jetted tub. There is also a large walk-in closet to store your belongings. The other two bedrooms also have flatscreen TVs and ensuite bathrooms with tub/shower combos.

This location is right in the heart of South Padre Island, mere steps away from the ocean and surrounded by incredible restaurants. Exciting evenings await at Gravity Park, an adventure and amusement park located one mile away from your home. More adventures await at Beach Park At Isla Blanca, a family-friendly waterpark offering premier water attractions and multiple meeting and banquet areas.

Great Place
The house is very spacious and comfortable. We loved hanging around the pool, fishing off the private pier and of course the proximity to the beach. The only thing we would have changed is better contact with the on-site manager through vacasa. We had to do some of our own problem solving for the fishing lights and the the pool pumps. We would have appreciated more towels and simple every day items like dish soap, toilet paper, laundry detergent and paper towels. Also, not hot pads if you want to use the oven. That being said, dollar general is right down the street so it wasn't that big of deal. Overall it was a great place and we look forward to a return trip!

STAY AWAY
I’ve rented many homes for vacation. This was THE WORST! Large live cockroaches, then a lot of dead roaches after the exterminator came, rat feces, NO HOT WATER in the kitchen (dishwasher was broken, and neither the washer nor sink had hot water- they had to bring us red solo cups and styrofoam plates for a property that was over 1k per night!), the dryer was full of sand that wasn’t from our laundry, filthy shower stall in Master, shower didn’t work in second master suite, the carpet in the master was FILTHY, SO many lightbulbs burned out, stairwell sconce barely hanging on the wall, the loft upstairs (one of the appeals of the property) that was shown in the pictures- no longer existed as they enclosed in it in this tiny, creepy room that no one wanted to stay in. More: the linens were scratchy and the towels were so hard, they scratched our faces, the property came with NO oven mitts or instructions on how to use the stove (you need to place specific pots and pans on top to turn it on), and the hot tub was FILTHY. Worst of all- the ceiling vent almost right above the master bathroom toilet (about an 11/12 ft. high ceiling, fell and crashed to the floor along with debris. If someone was standing there, it would have cause brain injury or death. Local management assured the vent, hot water, and other issues were taken care of. They never were. The manager, Ezekiel, told me the owners are personal friends of his and he didn’t want me to write a bad review.
