About the host
Hosted by Ruben & Deanna Mendez
We are a beach loving family of 6. San Antonio is our home and North Padre Island is our home away from home. My husband is a USAF veteran of the 1ST Gulf War. He is currently self employed. I have been a teacher for 24 years and have been a preschool teacher at a private school for the last 17 years. Our daughter is currently getting her masters and our son serves in the USAF Reserves.
Why they chose this property
We love the North Padre Island area. We have been vacationing here since we were children. We chose this location because it feels like home to us. Love that it is detached from the other units which gives us plenty of privacy. It is also centrally located to all restaurants and water sports.
What makes this property unique
We love the private yard, no shared walls and overall beachy feel of the cabana. As well as its close proximity to the beach.
