About the host
Hosted by Carol Bolstad

We live on South Padre Island full time enjoying the surf and kite boarding. When w4e started coming to SPI, we have lived in this condo in the winter and added the little things that make it more comfortable like a place to hang your keys when you come in the door and extra hooks in the bathroom for wet swim suits. All the paintings have beach themes to add to the island feel too. We live two block away from the condo now so can respond quickly if you need anything during your stay. We can often be seen kiteboarding in front of the condo after work.
Why they chose this property
South Padre Island has the island feel yet is convenient to get to. Its as far south as you can get in the west. It has the largest balconies on the island. All of them look directly at the water. You can play directly out from your condo and if you drop a penny over the balcony, it will land in the beach sand!
What makes this property unique
The sunrises and sunsets from the 9th floor are amazing. Being slightly higher and look down, you can see the dolphin in the water that you can't see from the lower floors.
