My partner and I stayed for a few days with our pups and loved it! Place was spacious, super clean, and right across the street from the beach access. Very responsive host. Great pool and hot tub. Comfy king beds. And we loved starting and ending our day on the balcony. Will definitely stay again!

The unit was most enjoyable for our 10 night stay. Just a quick half block to the ocean so you can walk there and enjoy for as long as you would like. The hosts have provided beach chairs, beach umbrella, mini cooler, beach towels and a wagon to get everything down to the beach. We really enjoyed the pool and hot spa. Very clean and warm! Would stay here again!

We were very happy with everything and extended our stay twice with no problems.The space is nice and it is well located.Unfortunately we got to see if the heater worked because it got quite cold on South Padre Island during our stay, and the heat and AC worked just fine. The pool was nice and warm and the hot tub was a bonus.
