We’re so excited to host you in this brand-new luxury designer home in sunny Port Isabel. Perfect for families or groups, this custom 2BR/2BA home features a heated pool, BBQ, patio, open kitchen/living, full-size washer/dryer, queen ensuite with desk, and a fun bunk room. Just minutes from South Padre Island, enjoy bayfront calm with beachside excitement nearby. No smoking, no pets.

The second bedroom features two sets of bunk beds (4 beds total), a large dresser, closet with French doors, and a cozy reading chair. Both bathrooms have modern fixtures, walk-in glass showers, and plenty of storage. The secondary bathroom includes a full-size stackable washer/dryer.
The fully equipped kitchen offers quartz countertops, travertine backsplash, stainless appliances, an undermount sink with sprayer, and tall light ash cabinets. Dine at the leather stools at the island or extend the vintage table to seat up to 8. The living space features soaring cedar-beamed ceilings, a smart ceiling fan, comfy leather sectional, and a 65" smart TV.
THE PROPERTY: Orion B is part of a private triplex. You’ll have full private access to your unit. The pool and outdoor spaces are shared with Orion A (3BR) and Orion C (1BR). Contact us if you’d like to rent the entire property for larger groups.

PARKING, ENTRY & SECURITY Your private entrance is located at the back of the home, accessible via the alley. Two gravel parking spots are available behind the home beside the grill and patio area, with free street parking for extra vehicles. Smart locks with unique codes are issued on check-in day. Security cameras monitor entries and parking.
NEIGHBORHOOD: We’re located in a quiet residential area next to a local park with a walking track, playground, and basketball court. Grocery stores are 1 mile away, and you’re just 2 minutes to bayfront restaurants and 7 minutes to South Padre Island. A free shuttle bus stops at the nearby park and runs between Port Isabel and the beach. Port Isabel is a peaceful coastal town on the Laguna Madre Bay, known for fishing, boating, birdwatching, and SpaceX launches. It’s the perfect year-round escape for those seeking natural beauty and tranquility—with quick access to SPI’s buzz.
THINGS TO DO: Surf, fish, zip-line, ride go-karts, mini-golf, horseback ride, hit the waterpark, enjoy tacos and margaritas, cruise at sunset, and of course, relax on miles of sandy beach. And yes—you can see rocket launches from here! Some of the best SpaceX views are just a few blocks away. Check their site for launch times.
CHANGES & CANCELLATIONS We follow the booking platform’s cancellation policy. Choose carefully between refundable and non-refundable options. Can’t make it? Non-refundable bookings may be moved to future dates (subject to rate changes).
