Wake up each morning to white sand, pristine dunes, and warm Gulf waves when you escape to this two-bedroom South Padre Island vacation rental, a well-appointed beachfront condo with a shared outdoor swimming pool and garden. You can bring the whole family! Whether you're a surfer, a sunbather, or a kiteboarder-in-training, this quaint condo is a wonderful destination for small families in search of sun, sand, and serene relaxation. Take an afternoon nap in the warmth of the sunshine, browse the wireless Internet, or catch your favorite show on the flatscreen cable TV. Pull up a seat to the bar counter to help with the cooking, or relax with a newspaper and a cup of coffee at the small indoor dining table for two. But as the sun comes up each morning, step outside on the private balcony to gaze east across the Gulf of Mexico. Enjoy an al fresco breakfast at the patio table for four, or watch the kids play on the grassy lawn below. And you'll return home to find a beautifully landscaped terrace, a refreshing outdoor pool, and a communal picnic area with a charcoal grill.
Ideally located in the charming La Playa condo complex of 20 beachfront condos, this bright and comfortable home is mere steps from the Gulf of Mexico. It's also an easy walk or a free shuttle ride to local restaurants, shopping, bars and nightclubs, and recreational outfitters. Thanks to the island's year-round warm weather, it's never a bad day to borrow a boogie board from the HOA and spend the day splashing in the turquoise Gulf waves. Spend the day on an eco-tour, gazing at the local dolphins, or charter a fishing boat to search for plentiful red snapper, grouper, and kingfish. You'll also be just two miles north of Schlitterbahn Beach Waterpark, where you'll find 13 indoor and outdoor waterslides on 25 acres of beachfront property.

THINGS TO KNOW
There is no elevator to this condo and may not be suitable for someone with a wheelchair.
Streaming services are available with guests' accounts.
*Please be advised that all guests during the month of March must be at least 25 years old.
*The restrictions regarding dogs are heavily enforced.
**** Please note, Texas weather brings pesky insects, and while we strive to ensure your stay is as pleasurable as possible, we are not able to control the elements that attract insects to the outdoor/indoor areas. All properties do utilize pest control maintenance regularly, BUT this does not guarantee pests or bugs will not be visible.
** The host does not guarantee stable wifi services at all times during your stay. This may also affect streaming services for televisions.
NO PARTY POLICY: This home maintains a strict no-party and no-spring break policy. Our local South Padre Island team monitors compliance with our rental policies and responds promptly to any complaints from neighbors. If any guests are found to violate these rental policies, it will result in eviction without a refund. If you have any questions or concerns about your compliance, please contact us right away so we can ensure you have a safe and happy vacation.
We’re excited to inform you that this condo utilizes a comfortable style of bed-making known as Triple Sheeting. Triple Sheeting is proven to be more hygienic and is used by five-star hotels around the world. It consists of a fitted sheet, a flat sheet, a blanket, and finally a decorative top sheet. Due to this change, the pictures for this condo may not accurately represent the bedding that will appear during your stay. This has not affected any other amenities or the amount of beds available.
City/town permit number2023-1267
If you are bringing a dog on your trip, the pet fee is already included in your quote when selecting ‘Yes’ to pets. No more dogs are allowed.
Parking notes: There is free parking available for 2 vehicles.
Security camera details: Security cameras are located in the front office.
Please note: this home resides in a noise-sensitive area and the owners participate in our Good Neighbor protection program. Our smart home technology will alert our team if excessive decibel or occupancy levels are detected, allowing us to reach out directly with a reminder of maximum occupancy and quiet hours. This technology is privacy compliant, and only monitors the presence of decibels and devices-not any personal conversation or information. Thank you for supporting our efforts to be good neighbors!
Damage waiver: The total cost of your reservation for this Property includes a nightly damage waiver fee, plus tax if applicable (the “Damage Waiver”). (A discount may be applied for stays of 28 nights or longer, if permitted.) The Damage Waiver covers you for up to $3,000 of accidental damage to the Property or its contents (such as furniture, fixtures, and appliances) as long as you report the incident to the host prior to checking out. The Damage Waiver fee eliminates the need for a traditional security deposit.
More information can be downloaded from the "Rental Agreement" on the checkout page.
Due to local laws or HOA requirements, guests must be at least 25 years of age to book. Guests under 25 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian for the duration of the reservation.
