The Space:
Welcome to our Practical Harbor by the Beach #2—a comfortable, walkable getaway close to everything South Padre Island has to offer. If location matters most, this spot is hard to beat. You’ll be less than 100 yards from the beach and within a short 5-minute stroll to countless restaurants, bars, shops, and family-friendly attractions while still being a really affordable SPI rental.
This ground-floor condo (no stairs!) is one of only four units in the building and offers shared access to a quiet / small backyard pool. Inside, you’ll find a clean, simple space with all-tile floors, high ceilings, an eat-in kitchen counter, and a cozy corner-bench dining area—great for family meals or game nights. This property does not have a dishwasher unfortunately The condo has 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. We allow up to 8 people including babies & toddlers, though the sleeping arrangements are best suited when some guests are children. The master bedroom features a king bed and private en suite bathroom.
The guest bedroom includes a fun full-over-full bunk bed with a twin trundle underneath, offering plenty of sleeping options. The living room has a standard couch, and we provide a queen airbed for extra guests—just bring bedding if you plan to use it.
The fully equipped kitchen includes pots, pans, utensils, and dinnerware, making it easy to cook and save a little money during your stay. A washer and dryer are also provided—especially helpful for families or longer trips. BBQ grills are welcome; we simply ask that grilling be done in front of the building rather than near the shared pool area.
If you’re traveling with a larger group, we manage all four condos in this building and can help you book multiple units—each is nearly identical inside.
You’ll love how close this condo is to local favorites: CVS is right at the beach access, Nautico is across the street for great dining, and you can walk to Meatball Café, Cafe Karma, Grapevine, Longboards, Tequila Sunsets, and the famous seafood buffet at Louie’s Backyard. Kids will also enjoy nearby Gravity Park with go-karts and mini golf.
While this condo isn’t newly remodeled & older, it’s fully functional, well-maintained, and professionally cleaned by South Padre Trips— the top local management team on the island.
Two off-street parking spaces are included. Up to two pets are welcome for an additional fee—just let us know. (Pets aren’t allowed in the pool area and should not be left alone if they may bark.)
Contact us for pool hours, and also we do offer very significant off season discounts Sept 15 to Dec 15th, as well for discounts for veterans & active duty military. Please reach out we can let you know we would love to host you.
