About this property

Spectacular Oceanfront View Family Friendly Beach House.

The Second Sandbar offers a home away from home for up to 9 people. This recently updated home is full of life's simple pleasures: an unbeatable ocean view, an ocean access right across the street, dependable WIFI, *three Roku TVs, a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable mattresses and linens, plush towels, an oversized washing machine and dryer, a second refrigerator, beach chairs and wagon, and an outside shower for rinsing off after a long day on the beach. The fourth bedroom has a built in desk and cabinets for those having to mix a bit of business with pleasure. The porch around the house invites drinking coffee at sunrise, lounging or reading in the afternoon shade, and gazing at weekly fireworks at night. There is a bus stop in front of the house for the free Island shuttle and restaurants and the Island's largest grocery store are within walking distances. We welcome pets, but please be courteous by keeping them off all furniture. Be sure to hose them off well (using our outdoor hose and/or shower) should they be sandy and wet from their frolics on the beach. And, don't forget to dry them off before they join you inside- thank you!
*The Smart TVs have access to all streaming channels. Renters must provide their own account/login information to access desired channels.

Beautiful getaway
This was an amazing home for me and my bridesmaids to celebrate the new year and also get ready for my wedding day. It was awesome to see the beach from the front porch and watch the fireworks, we also had an amazing full moon experience. We used the outdoor shower to wash our feet after walking back from the beach and just loved every second. Highly recommend!

5++++ Stars!!
Our family of 5 decided a beach Christmas would be great this year. We looked at lots of house listings and decided on The Second Sandbar. We were so glad we did! This house was so comfortable and welcoming. All the little touches throughout the house made us feel right at home. The location was amazing! We had easy access to the beach plus a beautiful view of the ocean from the upper balcony. The owners left an incredibly helpful “handbook” that gave us the inside scoop on what to do and where to eat throughout our stay. We made several meals in the well-equipped kitchen, and had a blast playing some of the available games. There were plenty of comfy beds for everyone and lots of space to spread out. This may be my favorite VRBO rental of all time!

Magnificent home!!!
This home was absolutely gorgeous and very well maintained!! They went out of their way to stock the slightest necessities for our 1-week stay! The house view was beautiful sitting on the front porch and such an easy access to the beach and everything else around. Communication with the owner and property manager was perfect. I will definitely return and stay here again.

Excellent family vacation, Summer 2023
Wonderful, amazing, exceeded expectations. Convenient beach access, beautiful porch with views of the gulf, outdoor shower, garage access for storage, spacious well stocked kitchen and great room with views of the gulf, very comfortable beds, high quality appliances in the kitchen and laundry room. My family (all 2SB members) have vacationed in SPI for over 20 years and the Second Sandbar is the best property we have rented. We will definitely return !

AMAZING
We will definitely go back! From the day we booked, there was a great communication between the owner and the property manager. Once we arrived, Cindy was always available to help us. Our wiener dogs love to going on the beach! This house was stocked very well with everything we needed! Will definitely recommend to friends! Oh, and one more thing, I left two of my chargers in the bedroom, and Cindy was nice enough to ship them to me! Thank you!

About the host

Hosted by Andrea Sears Andrews

Host profile image
My family first visited South Padre in 1970 and fell in love with it immediately. It was a simpler beach back then with only one main street and no condominiums. Despite its growth, it remains a sanctuary to our family. Three generations have cherished the gifts of South Padre and we hope that a fourth generation makes a splash in the Gulf of Mexico some day by walking the same path from our home to the ocean as so many of its relatives. My parents are no longer living, so it is the responsibility and privilege of my husband and I to continue the traditions of this beach home. We hope you will feel the peace and relish in the beauty that South Padre provides.

Why they chose this property

I remember when my parents were looking for the "just right property" to build our beach home upon. My brothers and I would run up and roll down mountainous dunes that inhabited these lots. We did not pay attention to what was before us, but what was beneath us. My parents, on the other hand, would spend endless moments looking towards a lot, dreaming of the house to come and towards the ocean, praying that they could always look out and see its grandeur. We have been truly blessed with the unobstructed view of the ocean for over forty years now. We can't help ourselves - our prayer is that of my parents, so many years ago.
