About this property

Completely renovated beach house style condo on the sunny Gulf of Mexico shore

New in June 2026! With a new kitchen, floors, lighting, bathroom fixtures, ceiling fans and recliner, Villa Bonita has been completely updated and modernized. The kitchen has all new cabinets, a georgeous granite countertop and backsplash, new microwave, convection and airfryer cooking. We raised the ceiling in the kitchen and added more lighting, a beautiful chandelier and ceiling fan. Enjoy the new electric recliner. Each bathroom has a new toilet, two with quartz vanity tops and the whole apartment has new flooring. The bedrooms have new flush mount fan/lights. With almost 1400 sq feet of space, there is room for the whole extended family, or a friends getaway.
Three spacious bedrooms, each with their own full bath, and a distribution that allows larger groups privacy and shared space, it is an ideal place to reconnect with the people who are important in our lives. The two downstairs bedrooms have two queen-sized beds and the upstairs bedroom has a king-sized bed, so ten people can sleep comfortably. Each bedroom also has a TV. Eat in or eat out- the full service kitchen is stocked with what you need to feed the whole crew. Enjoy barbecuing on the infrared grill on the balcony while you take in the Gulf view, or usw the CL air frier to cook for a crowd. The dining area seats six and has additional seating for four along the bar. There is a large smart TV in the living room with an expanded cable package ensures you won't miss any plays on game day. Villa Bonita has lots of extras to make your stay more enjoyable like a washer/dryer in the unit, a cooler with wheels, beach chairs, a full sunshade, sand toys and assorted beach-friendly toys like a kite, soccer ball, frisbee, etc. There are three balconies that face the beach and the pool with some outdoor seating. One thing to be aware of when you come to Villa Bonita is that the spacious units like ours are located on the third floor, which is an easy walk up with low wooden stairs.

The Bahia Mar complex continus to be a primier SPI destination location, with amenities that no other condo complex offers like the beachfront deck, the new childrens splash pad and the condo with the lowest density of people per square foot of land. Villa Bonita offers a relaxed beach house atmosphere with all the amenities of a high rise.

The new children's SPLASH PAD is located just outside our door. It is great for parents too, because you can sit in the jacuzzi while the kids play. Like all children's activities, you absolutly MUST be present while the kids play because the jacuzzi is 4 feet deep.

There is ample parking right in front of our condo, so it is easy to load and unload all the important vacation stuff! Villa Bonita looks out to the new pool and jacuzzi but is situated in a way that is also very private. One unique feature of Bahia Mar, the property where we are located, is that it has a large deck that runs along the beachfront with comfy sofas and deck chairs, which are perfect for watching the sunrise or the waves roll in. Villa Bonita is about 200 yards from the beach, so it is easy to enjoy everything this newly renovated property has to offer. We are committed to offering a reasonably priced vacation for families, because with four children of our own, we know how hard it can be to get away.

Please, no renters under age 25. We are are not a spring break property for college students.

About the host

Hosted by Elizabeth Salinas

Host profile image
Hi! We are Eugenio and Elizabeth Salinas, and we know how much everybody needs to get 'away from it all' once in a while! We live in Monterrey, Mexico with our four children and have enjoyed lots of quality family time in Villa Bonita, which is only a four hour drive from our home.

Why they chose this property

With a large family, we wanted a vacation home that fit the whole crew. Villa Bonita is one of the few three bedroom condos on Padre Island. Another big advantage is that it was completely renovated by the previous owners, with a new kitchen, floors and bathrooms. We liked the relaxed style and have enjoyed updating it and decorating it on successive visits.

Bahia Mar has undergone major renovations after hurricane damage in 2008, and we love the new pools, the new landscaping, outdoor lighting, the cobblestone parking lot, and the impeccable grounds and helpful, professional staff. Also Bahia Mar has one of the lowest population densities of any property on Padre Island, so it never feels crowded. Finally it is situated half way between two public beach entrances, so there is never crowd overflow in our area. We are at the north end of the Island, removed from the big high rises, so the beach feels like 'our beach.'

What makes this property unique

Was it the spacious floor plan, the Gulf view, the new pool, Jacuzzi, beach front deck or the best beaches in Texas that sold us on Villa Bonita? It is hard to say. We have noticed that after a stay in Villa Bonita we are more relaxed, smile about 50% more often and are generally nicer people all around!
