Near the beach and it is everything it says it is. It is a little worn in but, this is one of the better properties in the area. Hot tub wasn't hot but it worked. Overall we had a good experience.
Our family of 6 loved this house. Plenty of room for us and the kids. Clean, spacious and a great private pool/hot tub. Five minutes from the beach. Close to gas, groceries and restaurants. The neighborhood is clean and very quiet. Weâll be back.
The property was nice, but the management was not worth the rental. We had front door lock issues. As a result, we were locked out for several hours, had to enter through the bacon door the whole stay, and had to leave belongings unsecured. Other issues were the pool needed cleaning and the hot tub was not filled. There was no way to water hose or way to fill the hot tub. ICE maker and WiFi not working. I was on the phone with management for a good amount of my stay. The pool was cleaned but we never had anyone come out to fix the door.
We had a great time overallâthe house is beautiful and located in a fantastic area. However, there were a few challenges during our stay. First, we were surprised to find there was no dishwasher, which meant all dishes had to be hand-washed. Unfortunately, the water pressure throughout the house was extremely low, making this a frustrating task. We also couldnât have more than one person showering at a time; otherwise, the water would reduce to a trickle. With 8 people in the house, that made getting ready each day difficult. We had someone come out twice to look at the issue, but it was never resolved.
Another thing to note: while the home is beautifully decorated, itâs not particularly kid-friendly. There are delicate, breakable items on all three floors, which made things stressful with our groupâincluding six kids, four of whom were under five years old.
Despite these issues, the house itself has a lot of charm and potential, especially for adult groups or families with older children.
Beautiful property. Comfortable beds. Great pool area. If you are staying a few days and like to keep the floors clean you will need to bring your own broom. If you like to cook, you will need to bring all your spices. The house comes with Zero spices. The pool was a little dirty. The spiral staircase is very rusted and might cut your feet if you are barefoot.
Cons: The house was not cleaned from previous people. After I called, the cleaning people came very quickly. However, it ruined our afternoon plans that we made. Also, the fans upstairs were not working.
Pros: The house location to the beach is nice and close. The pool was our favorite amenity.

The perfect place for a beach stay in South Padre!
My husband and I booked this trip with our two adult children and their significant others as well as our 2 year old granddaughter. The floor plan was perfect and having a king bed in each of the rooms was a bonus. Everything was very comfortable, clean, and the location is spectacular. It is a quick walk to the beach, stores, restaurants, etc. After a day at the beach, we really enjoyed cooking out and using the pool in the late afternoon and evening. The outdoor space is just beautiful!
We were prepared with supplies after reading reviews such as paper plates, napkins, paper towels, TP,
coffee filters, and spices to cook with. For the next guest, we left some of these things!
The only things that could be improved is providing more than one key to access the place and adding a dishwasher. However, these were NOT deal breakers. There is a bathroom at the lower level on the side of the house to access which was so convenient when using the pool. We had a small leak in the kitchen sink and the management company was there within a couple hours to fix it.
We highly recommend! Our daughter got engaged on this trip and having such a beautiful home to celebrate and enjoy the week made it extra special!!
Excellent Property with Amazing Property Management
We come every year to SPI with our family and best friends. This is a 10 year tradition. We never end up staying at the same place for various reasons so weâve tried a lot of them.
The property was exactly as listed and we enjoyed it immensely. I will say, the reviews pointed out a squeaky master bed for the last year. I assumed that wouldâve been addressed by now so it was disappointing it was not. That was the biggest downside and not a deal breaker for us, although I do hope it gets fixed soon for future guests.
We had a few minor hiccups, but all were addressed immediately by Celia and her staff. They were super helpful and polite and remedied them within a hour of our reaching out. And these were not a huge dealâjust needed a few coffee mugs and some oven mitts.
All in all we had a fantastic time and thoroughly enjoyed yet another great vaca trip to SPI. Rest assured if you stay at any property managed by Vacasa and Celiaâs team, you will be in great hands!
When I booked this home in January of 2025 for an April vacation it was listed with hot tub and heated pool, pictures showed a beautiful outdoor space with pool and hot tub. Those pictures are very old and do not show what it actually looks like now. I called Vacasa on our 1st day in home with no heat in the pool and the pool dirty and cloudy and the hot tub was very cold. No instructions on how anything works in the home, Vacasa told me to locate the spa button and press it and it should start to heat up. They also stated the pool was just cleaned that morning? I really do not think that was true. We rechecked the hot tub 4 hours later still no heat. The next morning hot tub was half empty and still no heat. I called and or messaged Vacasa again. The pool was very dirty and cloudy with chlorine powder just sitting all over the pool floor with no pool filters running to help clean it. When I did receive a response back it was a refund for 117 for a non working hot tub. I again asked if they could please send a pool person to come and check on the pool. No response back from Vacasa. The grill outside was caked with burnt food and no grill brush to be found to clean it. Microwave does not work, ice maker does not work, the house over all dirty, slime on upstairs bathroom faucets.On our last day of vacation we were shocked and disgusted to have a huge RAT swimming in the pool.I called Vacasa reported everything again I requested half of my money back and I have had no responsed
Les points faibles : Communication, emplacement, exactitude de lâannonce
Property was advertised as oceanfront both on VRBO and VACASA. See pictures. I spent every day of my trip arguing with both entities about this. I would never have booked this house if it were not oceanfront. In addition to the misrepresentation, the customer service by both the host company and VRBO were terrible. I was promised day after day a follow up call and never got it.I wouldâve rated this house at three without the misrepresentation of oceanfront. There were many things broken in the house or that did not work.-Terrible mold stains in the bathroom showers-Absolutely no water pressure in the showers. I really struggled to get shampoo and conditioner out of my hair. I was told by the rental company this was a known issue.-No dishwasher and virtually no hot water in the kitchen sink. They did not provide any kind of dishwashing soap or dish cloths/sponges. I had to go out and buy these things to wash dishes. And never felt like the dishes were really clean since there was no hot water.-door handle on the sliding glass door on the second floor was broken making it extremely difficult to open and close the door.-Icemaker and water filter in the kitchen were not operable-downstairs TV did not work-we were only allowed one bath towel per person provided by the host. I contacted them and they said this was normal policy.-outdoor furniture cushions were saturated with mold Home could greatly benefit from an instruction manual like is found in most rentals.
