Ocean Melody - 1st Floor, Recently Remodeled, Walking distance to Beach!

Although North Padre Vacations manages this property, we like our guests to know a little something about the owner:
As a 4th generation musician, Ditto Sturchio has been entertaining for over 40 years. He began his musical training at 10 years old. At 16, Ditto was playing with prominent dance bands in San Antonio. He would perform until 2:00am at a local club, and then be on the football field rehearsing with the Thomas Jefferson High School Marching Band at 7:30am the next morning. He ultimately became the Drum-major his senior year. After High School, Ditto was awarded a piano scholarship to the University Of Houston. There, he studied under Albert Hirsch, chairman of the piano department. While working on a music degree, Ditto could not deny the overwhelming desire to entertain. Following his heart, he hit the road with show bands traveling the United States. While on the road, he performed in Nashville, more specificity the Operyland Hotel. This provided a great opportunity to open up shows for many country legends as part of the Roger V. Show. Before coming back to San Antonio, Ditto performed in the show “The Spell-Caster”, a main-room show at the Landmark Hotel in Las Vegas. After retuning to San Antonio, Ditto teamed up with his Dad, Al Sturchio, to launch “Sturchio Entertainment Inc.” It was an entertainment booking agency, that arranged entertainment for corporate, and private events. After performing one of those private events at The Argyle, Ditto was approached by management to play piano in the lounge. The piano was donated to the Argyle, for the lounge, by the Tobin Estates some 17 years ago. The Argyle has been home for Ditto Sturchio ever since.
