FIVE REASONS TO BOOK: • Entire property to yourselves with 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2 kitchens, and 2 living rooms—ideal for large groups wanting both togetherness and privacy. • Just 50 yards from the beach, making it incredibly easy to walk back and forth throughout the day without loading up the car. • Multiple outdoor spaces including a private front deck, spacious rear deck, shaded lounge area beneath the home, and backyard perfect for gathering after a day on the beach. This is an authentic South Padre beach house with colorful Caribbean décor, vintage character, and a location that is hard to beat just ¼ block to the public beach access. This not a complete remodel nor brand new—and that’s exactly why so many guests dig it. If you came down to the Island 20 or even 30 years ago, this is what authenticity feels like. In other words, if you are looking for pristine perfection, this won’t be a fit. If you would like a space with a front & back deck, shaded area under house as well as a backyard to hang in, this is it. Please note there is no pool here, but it is so very close to the beach it is unlikely you will notice that. While we do not provide a grill, you are allowed to bring a charcoal or gas, we just ask that you please do not bring it up on the decks.
