Our family stayed in this rental for 7 nights (2 adults & 2 kids). We chose this location because it was within driving distance to South Padre Island, but not at South Padre prices. This property is located in a quiet gated community. We thoroughly enjoyed staying here. The whole condo is beautiful and all the decorating is quite tasteful with an island-vacation feel. Everything is updated and felt clean and easy to use. The kitchen was well-stocked with coffee pot, wine glasses, all the utensils and pots/pans one might need. We cooked many breakfasts, made our lunches to go and cooked a few dinners. We especially appreciated the WiFi and Direct TV. Even though we were on vacation from our busy lives, it was nice to have these services. Most rentals we looked at did not include WiFi. In my opinion, WiFi is a must these days (especially with a teenager and pre-teen), vacation or not. Our biggest/best surprise was the screened-in back porch (that is not shown in the pictures). It was nice to sit out there and enjoy the outside without having to endure the normal Texas bug population. There is a good-size table with four chairs on the patio. Also not pictured is the nice big tub in the master bathroom. We didn’t use it, but it was available for a great bubble bath! We also appreciated the attached-garage with full-size washer & dryer. We really enjoyed our vacation to South Padre – we will most-definitely stay at this property again and we would definitely recommend it to our friends and family! Lastly, the owner was very attentive to our questions and needs.
