House was huge, we had rooms that no one used. The pool and hot tub were a little dirty but not bad enough from stopping us from jumping in. Would definitely book again!
This home was big enough for my whole family of 16 people. The rooms are the size of a hotel room. My family had a blast. Everything is walking distance. The neighbors were friendly.The only down side was racial slurs yelled at my children.
Loved the location, layout, and amenities of this property. There was plenty of room for our large family to be together yet have their own space. 10/10 would recommend. The only slightly off putting part of our stay was the check in process. We booked for Christmas Day and called/inquired several times to make sure they would be open and available. We received a text that same day that they would be closing early and we would need to check in 2 hours before our original check in time.that caused us a bit of anxiety, but ultimately got it figured out.

The house is huge and good for big group. The pool and kitchen is good for a family. Lots of bed so you could sleep comfortably. We have a good time a really enjoy the place. I would recommend this place if you have big group and want a big house. Will come back again in the future!
The place is very private and spacious !!!!! Definitely near several shopping centers , places to eat etc, great location !! The kitchen has ever pot and pan needed for those home cooked meals !
This is the 5th time we have stayed at this house. For the most part it is perfect. However, the Stove needs to be replaced. It takes forever to cook on the stove and the oven has a burnt out element. In addition, the fire detectors constantly go off when the kitchen gets smoky making bacon.
Very good location to activity and close to beach. House was very unclean and beds are very uncomfortable. In the room across from the bathroom the sheets didnât even fit the bed. We found dirty underwear left in the house from the last renters. The washer and dryer do not work well: the dryer didnât dry anything unless it was one or two items and if we used the dryer and left the bedroom open it sets off the smoke detector. The outside of the house is very very dirty. The amount of hair we found in the pool things that you should clean out was disgusting we almost could have made a sweater!
We made the best of the situation and enjoyed our trip but for what you charge for that house it should have been much cleaner!
I don't normally write reviews, but we had such a great stay that I felt compelled to do so. To start, the house is huge! There was plenty of space for our large family and the second family we were traveling with. We've rented a few vacation homes before and usually have to pack into small rooms, but not with this one. It was very comfortable for us and had everything that we needed. The housekeepers had just left when we arrived and I have to note that they did a very good job. We were so pleased with how clean the house was. House was well maintained and everything was in working order for us. We had one issue with a TV which ended up being user error. We called SPI Rentals and they had maintenance out very quickly and when I say quickly I mean within minutes of calling which was incredible! Their staff was very friendly and one of the best rental agencies we have ever used. To sum it all up, we loved the house and we will definitely rent this home again if we take another trip to South Padre Island.
We had 16 stay altogether (a mixture of adults and teenagers). The stay was perfect! Plenty of room, and it was in a wonderful location with everything in walking distance. Check in was easy, and everyone I talked to with the process was friendly and helpful. I will definitely choose this place again to stay at in the future!
We had a great stay. I only marked it down because there was construction on both sides of the house so it was pretty noisy and they started early in the morning.
The house was great for our large group. The house is definitely older and a little run down-but worked great for what we needed. So if you are wanting a brand new house, this one is not for you. Because the house is older, it didnt feel as clean to me. But again, worked great for what we needed!
Our family stayed there for a reunion of 22 people. Based on the pictures and the cost of the property, we expected to be walking into a much higher quality house. While it fit our needs in size and number of rooms, it was severely outdated. The furniture was pretty trashed, and the interior and exterior of the house needed updating. Many appliances were broken or unusable, including the grill, which we intended to use and couldnât. The outdoor furniture smelled moldy, and should be replaced. There was also construction that caused a noise disturbance happening right next to the house the whole time we were there, and we werenât notified that would be happening. There were not any cleaning items to use, and when we requested a broom, it was very obviously the cheapest broom they could buy from the local store. We were also notified well after our refund date that we would not be receiving any basic paper staples or anything to start with including trash bags and toilet paper, which also felt misleading based on the price. Overall, it worked for our needs, but for the price we expected a lot more than what we received
The property was nice, we had a great time and a great work out climbing the stairs. Wifi wasnât too great but luckily we were there for the beach and pool. Highly recommend, big cozy house for a large group. The house had, napkins, toilet paper, detergent, dish soap and a sponge to clean dishes wish. There was also a dishwasher with soap.
First off, let me qualify my review by saying, I normally only give a review if the property is exceptional or if it was a disaster. This property was neither. But, due to the large amount I paid to stay here, it warrents my honest review.
Our week stay (Saturday-Friday) was over $10,000. This property housed all 22 of us with plenty of room. Our group consisted of 9 adults and 13 children, ages 16-6 years old. One teen slept on a futon in an out-of-the-way hallway on the 3rd floor. All others slept in bedrooms.
The property is interesting, it's a large old house that has probably been modified a few times. Quite frankly, it is in need of a makeover. This home has been used heavily and it shows. There are signs of use and abuse everywhere. Kitchen cabinet doors are broken, doors to bedrooms don't open as thy should, tile is broken and duck-taped in place, refrigerator door handles are misaligned, furniture is old and very tired looking. The place is functional, especially for a large group, but that is all. I definitely expected more for what I paid.
One great aspect was the air-conditioning. The property has two units, as it should. Once we figured that out and reset the thermostats to a comfortable temperature, we were able to handle staying in this broken down old home.
The supposedly well-stocked kitchen is a miss mash of whatever is working and leftover. Nothing matches, several different plates, bowls, pots with lids that don't fit, etc.
No, I would not return!
There was plenty of space plus extra for the 10 of us that stayed. It was like being on vacation with a group of people but also having enough space to have your own time your spouse! SPI was very prompt and responsive to any questions/concerns we had. We had a great time and would stay at this property again!
Great location, very clean, plenty of room for 14.
We had a great time at this rental. Great location and within walking distance to everything. The pool and hot tub were a big hit. The pool table was also great. Nice big kitchen which was well stocked.
The only problem was the water had to be turned off part of a day because of a city issue.
We celebrated two birthdays and our 50th wedding anniversary. Perfect place for our whole family.
Thank you for a very memorable vacation with our family.
Plenty of room for my team of five. This is a very nice property close to both beach and bay. Easy check in/out, just wish we could check in early. Otherwise, property is close to several stores and restaurants, all within walking distance. There is also a bus on the island but we didn't use it. Beds were comfy, a/c was perfect, and kitchen was adequate with plenty of utensils. We did not have any issues during our visit and SPI rentals was very commincative from booking, arrival, and check out. I'd definitely recommend this property for any group outing.
Booked for a family vacation (15 people) and everyone was able to have their own space. Third floor bunks room was a little hotter than the rest though. Other than that kitchen was big enough for half the family to be doing things and still move around. Will definitely book again if have that many people.
We had a group of 21 people who stayed at this house. There was plenty of room and the house was clean and well equipped. The beds were comfortable and the bedrooms were larger than they looked in the pictures. We loved using the pool and hot tub in the evenings after long days of doing things around the island. We enjoyed our stay very much and I would recommend this house to anyone.
