If They Could Get the Weather Under Control, It Would Be Perfect

I was completely satisfied with my stay, aside from the uncharacteristically inclement weather that fell upon us for a couple of days during my two-week stay. The studio unit was very clean & neat, well maintained and furnished, with a nice shower, a comfortable bed, a huge TV screen, lots of cabinet space, AC and ceiling fan, good toiletries and kitchen essentials, including a fridge, coffeemaker, microwave, toaster, dishes and utensils, iron & board --- everything I needed and then some. It, also, provides safe parking, a convenient location, laundry facilities, and, of course, a swimming pool. Now, if they could get the weather under control, it would be perfect.

What was advertised, is what we got.

Great location, easy walk to the bay side restaurants and bars, as well as an easy walk to the beach on the gulf side. Would stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Blue Ocean Vacation Rentals, LLC

Host profile image
I am an island person born and grew up in Puerto Rico. Marriage brought me to Dallas area but my body and soul always pulled me towards the ocean. I chose South Padre Island because the beaches and the ocean are the best of Texas.

Why they chose this property

The city of South Padre Island has many activities for all age groups. We wanted to be a part of this wonderful vacation spot where there’s deep sea and bay fishing, dolphin watch tours, and many other water activities. There are dozens of fantastic restaurants to choose from and nothing compares to the seafood of the Gulf of Mexico! Watching the amazing sunrises and sunsets over the Gulf of Mexico and the Laguna Madre Bay are a special treat! There’s always something to do here, no matter what time of the year. We hope you’ll come choose to stay in our relaxing “Little piece of South Padre Island”, down in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas!

What makes this property unique

Vista del Mar is located a 4 minute walk from the closest beach access. This cute little studio is perfect for the couple looking for a quiet getaway. One queen bed only.
