The Space:

Gulfview II a small walk to beach condo complex located on the South End of South Padre Island. The south end of the Island is where all the entertainment is located. The south end is also great as it helps you avoid busy weekend traffic delays.



This property is walking distance to the new Holiday Inn Beach Resort that has 2 restaurants open to public, as well as next door is Beach Park SPI, formerly known as Schlitterbahn Waterpark



While Gulfview II (and it's sister property Gulfview I) are not beachfront, there is an EZ beach access located due north of the Holiday Inn that is convenient and totally walkable with a wagon with your beach gear.



Gulfview has arguably the best pool area not on the beach, while the pool is not heated the hot tub is. It also has about half a dozen built in BBQ charcoal grills that are first come/first serve use right off the pool with a shaded dining area with plenty of picnic tables. This is one of the main reasons guests love this property.



The condo itself is on the 4th floor and the property does have an elevator. While the condo is not a brand new renovation - we think you will really like it - it is super clean and functional in every way. The kitchen has all the basic amenities you will need for quick meal preps for your family.



While we allow up to 6 guests, understand this space really isn't adequate for 6 adults. A couple with kids it is perfect for however. or a small group of friends that don't mind sharing a bedroom. The pull out couch in living room does allow for more space than just the 2 double beds in the 1 bedroom, FYI



We do provide a double sized airbed with pump, though please bring extra bedding if you do want to use it. There is a very small private patio with 2 chairs though it doesn't afford a superb view.



Please note we do have unit 410 right next door if you have friends or family that want to join!



Condo has smart TVS for your app/accounts to wind down to movies after a long day at the beach.





While we have the best available Internet/wifi from spectrum they are the only provider on the island and up time and coverage can be spotty at times we want you to be aware of that



If you can't find the network name SouthPadreTrips it's usually means we had a power outage and when the power comes back on It typically defaults the router to the factory network name and password, which is located on a sticker on top of the router.



Generally, if you reboot the router by unplugging it for a few minutes and plugging it back in it will pop up



*Free Parking Off Street



Complex has an elevator so you don't have to climb stairs unless desired. Community use laundry area for the complex. There is (1) provided off street parking space.



While we allow up to 6 people, we feel the space is adequate for a couple with kids. There are 2 double beds plus a pull out couch as well as a double sized airbed and pump we provide. Please bring extra bedding if you plan to use the airbed.



We provide linens & towels, but do not provide beach towels. Kitchen has all the utensils, dishes, etc. For stays over 4 nights, we do provide complimentary towel & linen exchange at our office South Padre Trips at 2600 Padre Blvd across street from water towel on main blvd.



For work, there is high speed WiFI in unit as well as counter to work off of.



Gulfview II is superior to Gulfview I as they do not charge for wristband deposits...however....



Please note: The security wristband fee that is required is $25 per person. It is fully refundable.



That is due prior to check-in. They have to return the wristbands and the parking permit to our office to receive the refund if they cannot leave it in the unit



Office is 2600 Padre blvd, South Padre Island, TX 78597 across street from Kraken bar



We do have a drop box if after hours. You must return the parking permit and all wristbands to receive a refund. Anything missing will be charged $25 for each missing item.



During March and Easter weekend The wristband fees are completely nonrefundable. They also are not optional. Alternatively, if you don't wish to pay us, you can pay Security direct in all Cash and the security bands actually cost more if you do it that way, but that's up to you as a guest. it's not our fee.
