Gulf-view townhouse with beach access, big kitchen, & seating for everyone
Beach Way - Crab Shack
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
This lovingly named the “Crab Shack” on North Padre Island is loaded with colorful coastal decor and luxury appointments. Enjoy a private patio, stunning gulf views and an easy walk to the beach at this brand-new vacation rental. Don’t even worry about packing up the car; the beach is just a short walk from this coastal townhouse. With all of Padre Island at your fingertips, you can kayak around Packery Channel, surf at J. P. Luby Park or boat around Bird Island.
Outdoor enthusiasts will love exploring area beaches, fishing, kayaking, surfing, and boating. If shopping and dining are more your speed, there are plenty of restaurants and boutiques within a five-minute drive of home. You’ll have access to a sparkling resort-style pool for laid-back afternoons in the sun.
A quaint living room with a cozy couch and a comfortable love seat is perfect for watching your favorite shows on the large TV. The loaded kitchen with a giant island (complete with seating) and modern appliances opens up to the elegant dining room with seating for everyone. The second living room contains a twin daybed with a trundle and a mounted TV. The half bath is quaint with a single vanity and toilet. A coastal primary bedroom features a queen-size bed, large TV, wicker chair seating and private balcony access. An en-suite bathroom has a single vanity and shower. The second bedroom also has a plush queen-size bed, dresser and TV. Kids will love the third bedroom with a twin-over-full bunk bed and its own TV. The spacious guest bathroom boasts a single vanity and shower/tub combo.
If you're looking to accommodate a larger party, we recommend renting the unit next door - a 3BD/2.5BA - also managed by TurnKey Vacation Rentals. If you wish to view the property, please see VRBO 723354.
THINGS TO KNOW
**Due to the location of our rentals, you may encounter situations with wildlife/pests. Please be aware of your surroundings, take caution while driving at night, and supervise your children at all times while outdoors. In addition, all properties do utilize pest control maintenance on a regular basis BUT this does not guarantee pests or bugs will not be visible.
Parking notes: There is free parking available for 2 vehicles.
This rental is located on floor 1.
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.
