Perfect Group Getaway

We had an extended family vacation and this house was perfect for that. We loved how close it was to the beach to hang out and build sand sculptures and then heading back to the pool and spa to relax. We didn't rent a car and it went fine. Between the golf cart, bikes, walking and free bus service we easily got everywhere that we wanted to go. Would totally stay there again.

THE PERFECT BEACH GETAWAY

We absolutely LOVED this home!!! This was the perfect place to spend a short weekend with friends to enjoy sun, drinks, and memories that will last forever. Even though the beach was a minute walk away, we especially enjoyed the beautiful pool and the wonderful amenities included!! This home has everything you could possibly need for a beach or pool day, (the number of beach towels were a life saver). We are so excited that we have found a reliable beach home that works for both an adult trip and a family trip.

Great Rental Home in South Padre Island, TX

Great home for a large group. Plenty of space, bedrooms, bathrooms (very nice bath towels also) and beds! Additions that clinched this deal for us was the inclusion of a golf cart, plenty of beach chairs, beach mats, beach umbrellas, and BEACH/POOL TOWELS! Excellent heated pool and hot tub, beautiful outdoor space with plenty of outdoor furniture. Trees and plants surround the backyard also. Two front load washing machines and front load dryers. Two water heaters provided plenty of hot water (we had 14 family members). Well-appointed kitchen with adequate dishes, bowls, cups, flatware, pots, pans, cooking utensils, blender, toaster, double oven, microwave. Large dining table with lots of chairs. Comfortable living room also. Another great addition is refrigerator/freezer in the garage. Beach access right across the street. We did have a few hiccups, but the host was very responsive and these issues were remedied quickly! We would stay here again if our travel plans took us to SPI again!
