The unit was most enjoyable for our 10 night stay. Just a quick half block to the ocean so you can walk there and enjoy for as long as you would like. The hosts have provided beach chairs, beach umbrella, mini cooler, beach towels and a wagon to get everything down to the beach. We really enjoyed the pool and hot spa. Very clean and warm! Would stay here again!

We were very happy with everything and extended our stay twice with no problems.The space is nice and it is well located.Unfortunately we got to see if the heater worked because it got quite cold on South Padre Island during our stay, and the heat and AC worked just fine. The pool was nice and warm and the hot tub was a bonus.

Great little family vacation

We had a wonderful stay! The condo was perfect for our family, and we were even able to bring our fur baby as well. The condo was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The pool area was great - We could have spent every day just hanging out by the pool and playing corn hole, shooting pool or watching movies. If we are ever in SPI again, we will definitely stay here!!

About the host

Hosted by Shannon

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

The location is great! We can easily head back to the condo for lunch or just to grab more digging stuff. Then it's just a 1-2 minute walk back across the street and we are there, in the water! We also love walking down to the Wanna Wanna Inn for fried shrimp, cold beer, and good music. When our family comes to visit, we stay in all of the condos and spread out. We get to enjoy being close together without listening to each other snore!
