Arlene was great and made checking in and out super easy. The house was spotless, really clean. The back yard was great to have for my dog. The landscaping was lush and well maintained. Arlene is friendly and gave us lots of information about the area. When I come to South Padre Island in the future I will check to see if this house is available.

Amazing Beach Stay – Pet-Friendly and Fully Stocked!

We loved our stay at this beach rental! It's in a perfect location—just a short walk or drive to the beach and close to shops and restaurants. The house had everything we needed: a full kitchen, comfy beds, fast Wi-Fi, and even beach gear. Our dog loved the backyard!Clean, cozy, and convenient. We’d definitely stay here again!

Very nice home close to the beach

Arlene was an amazing host. The home was clean and very nice we enjoyed our stay here at south padre island. The home is in a nice secluded spot with a wonderful view of the fireworks and the beautiful sunset. Very spacious house with enough beds for everyone. Wonderful home and island would recommend it for big families or even small ones.

PARADISE

Centrally located, not far from everything. The house gave me good vibes. Well kept and very clean. As soon as I walked in I felt relaxed and comfortable. The back yard was beautiful. Lots of natives birds would visit early morning. Just a beauty sounds of Mother Nature.

15th Birthday Trip

Our trip was enjoyed by everyone. The home was comfortable and Arlene was gracious. We really enjoyed the breakfast at Yummies Bistro. We had a wonderful birthday celebration at Kohnami Japanese Restaurant. The chef Alex was wonderful to us and the birthday girl. I would recommend Arlene’s house to anyone.

Weekend Getaway

The owner was amazing. She was so friendly & helpful with all the things to do & great food places around. Although it's not right on beach, it's a nice walkfrom the house to the sand. I loved that our dogs were welcomed & hand a backyard to run around in.

Viento Vista Christmas 2024

We loved the house. The owner met us for the initial walk thru. Had two sets of keys- perfect for the guys to go fishing and the girls to junk shop. Christmas time was perfect. Temperatures was in the 70's each day. I recommend anyone who needs the space to check this one out. We ate in every meal but the last night we ordered pizza to save the clean up. Plan to go back as soon as we can work it out.

Escaping Reality With The Corillo

We had an awesome time and we enjoyed every minute of our visit! Recommendation: The housekeeping team should be on the same page as the owner; we as guests left the bathroom's cleanliness in better shape than they were turned in to us. It’s important to make sure that all is great before next guests arrive.

Great Value

A group of friends and I have stayed here each October for three years in a row now. Great location, lots of room, the house is always clean, and the hosts are friendly and easy to work with. Add in the very fair prices and it’s everything you could ask for in a short term rental.

This house is amazing! Arlene was very helpful should you have any questions or concerns. Amazing back yard space for the dogs as well as sleeping arrangements for the furry friends. The house is located very conveniently and we were a walk away from anything we needed. Could not recommend enough and will definitely be booking again for our next SPI trip!

Great location for kite boarders/wind surfers as you can launch from the end of the street, 200 yards down. Native plants attract migratory birds.
