We had a group that was attending a conference at SPI and this was a great match for us. The accommodations fir our needs, the communication from the host was terrific, and check-in and check out were both smooth. I'd definitely stay here again.
The house was big and spacious the rooms all had the most comfy beds the pool so big and perfect the kitchen was the right size i loved everything about that house totally recommend !!
After 2 years of trying to plan a beach vacation. It finally all came together! Due to an abundance health scares We had been unable to find the time to make it happen. Recently, with the blessings of good health, we celebrated our family at the octagon House on Capricorn. This location was the cherry on top. I also would like to thank Brandon for being so incredibly responsive when I had to call him on a couple of questions. He not only answered the phone but he also provided solutions. I am grateful for the excellent communication he provided. Our family will increase in blessings and will include a future stay to celebrate.
The place is nice. Close to the beach - walking distance. Swimming pool was clean shower and water hose in the back to rinse off. Plenty of parking for four cars. We enjoyed our time.
The location is great. Very close to the beach. Bedrooms are nice, yet the AC is working inconsistently in different rooms. The living room and couch areas are sad: very dark, the couch reminded me of a hospital furniture and just in general the living room area was very uninviting and not cozy. The walls were dark too. Overall there was little to no desire to be inside. The pool area was also lacking details. The location is however walking distance to the beach, and close to everything. Overall I would not be back at this property, just because I didnât feel great being inside. Everything worked though, and checking /communication went well
My family of 11 + dog had the best time staying here for 8 days. The best location on the island, so close to the beach you donât need a car. The home was very clean, comfy beds and pillows, bbq pit was easy to use, huge refrigerator, all the kitchen accessories you need, plus full size washer and dryer. The owner was very nice and reassured us if we needed anything he was just a call or text away.
House was spacious and family enjoyed the convenience to the beach. One down fall was the entrance to the home was up a flight of stairs, was difficult getting coolers and suitcases into the house. But overall a very nice place to rest and explore the Island.
The property was great and the check in was a breeze. He is trying to update more items in time. The house could use a dishwasher, when on vacation dishes are not on the agenda. Showers are small, but are going to be remodeled. Need more cooking utensils and storage containers. Curtains on the windows to block out security lighting and 7 am wakeup call, too early for a vacation. We would reccomend to anyone, and will use again for our family
The property was as we expected. Very short walk to the beach.
The only 2 suggestions I have would be to upgrade the bedding, mattresses and mattress pads and add a couple frying pans, casserole dishes and covered storage dishes. To the owners benefit, a garbage disposal would help when doing dishes.
Very awesome place to stay close to beach will rent again this summer the private pool is a plus could use a better grill but other than that this house is our new go to place
Our stay at this location was very average. Place needed some cleaning in the bathrooms especially the one in the garage. Only one bedroom had a dresser. The location is better suited for college clientele to have a party weekend. I will definitely stay here again.
Thanks,

The owner attended personally to an issue, we will defenetly stay here again,and recommend it to friends and family.the place itâs walking distance to beach.my children and grandchildren loved it. PDM S.A TX
My family and I enjoyed the stay very much. We had a small group of close friends and family stay and join us and size of house had more then enough space for all. Pool was perfect and location is in perfect location, close to beach and to stores. Will definitely book again.
Two of us spent 6 days here to quarantine/work, it was exactly as described. The place is large if you have several people, it will be great. Super clean, it has a de-humidifier which makes a HUGE difference. The pool was sparkling clean and the garage access, bathroom and fridge were perfect. Also literally a 2 minute walk to the beach. We liked it so much, we looked to book it again this summer and it's already all booked up! Getting access was clear/easy. Keep in mind the gates to the back don't have locks, so don't keep anything outside, we put our stuff in the garage during the day/night.
One thing to note, the quality of mattresses and sheets are not great, so if you have any kind of aches/pains, you may want to make note of that.
Will definitely book again, it was just the quarantine vacation we needed!
A great place to stay with kids; close to the beach and with a good sized pool. Thereâs also plenty of seating in shaded areas around the pool. Would recommend.
We had a great time. The location was perfect. The kitchen was stocked with cooking utensils, as well as with plates, bowls, and utensils. There wasnât a dishwasher, but that wasnât a big deal. Our family enjoyed our Christmas at the beach.
The octagon on Capricorn was only a short walk to the beach and a quick drive to several shops. The owner was responsive when we ran into a small issue. That being said the house is outdated and in need of an overhaul. We like to prepare our own meals when on vacation. However this kitchen is lacking basic utensils ,towels and space . We also had to wash most everything prior to use. The kitchen light works on itâs own schedule. During our stay we encountered several roaches. In addition, there were no instructions regarding the dehumidifier, which we had to empty several times, or the tv. The pool man showed up randomly one morning and thankfully our dogs were in the house because he left the gate wide open. The pool bath was unusable and dirty. The pool and proximity of the beach were the highlights of this property. This house was not up to the standards we expect.
We are a father-son duo, Roberto and Brandon, that own/manage multiple properties across South Padre Island and Brownsville! What started as a small side project for Roberto back in 2008, it has grown into something that we both love. We handle everything as a team, from guest bookings, to making sure each property truly feels like home. It's not just about business for us; it's about creating great experiences for our guests while getting to spend quality time working together. Between Roberto's years of experience and Brandon's fresh new ideas, we truly hope you have a wonderful stay!
