About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

South Padre Cottage within walking distance to everything Fun!

This older island home features a nice large front deck which allows for perfect viewing of the weekend fireworks and people watching!
House is located near attractions like; the historic Louie's Backyard, Coconuts bar and grill, Dairy Queen, Gravity Park, Pizza Hut and more!
We're in the center of all the fun and engaging activities during your stay.
The island cottage is an OLDER unit which means it will not have all the amenities of a modern condo. What the Cottage lacks in amenities, it makes up for in charm and simplicity. Again, this was an older island home as such there may have some quirks and unpolished aesthetics.
If you're looking for a simple place to relax, detach and have as your home base for experiencing the fun activities on the island, then this is a great property for your next Island adventure!
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask before booking.

Excelente departamento
El departamento es identico a las fotografías, se encuentra muy bien ubicado para poder ir a pie a los mejores lugares de la isla, yo viaje con mi hermana y nuestros cuatro perritos y pasamos un tiempo invreible, la.playa esta a solo cuadra y media de la casa y es super comoda. El aire enfria super bien y tiene dos televisiones, seguro repito ahi. Y Cindy respondia de inmediato a nuestras dudas. Estuvo genial

Over
Overpriced and dirty! Furniture is uncomfortable. Nails sticking up on deck. Broken chair and rusted shelving unit on back deck. Only 1 knife. Looks out on parking lot of Gravity Park so very noisy at night. No sunset view. Look elsewhere!

Perfect size and location for a couple looking to spend a few days together. Because of the location expect some noise though. However, didn't lose sleep. Will definitely be booking again.

Perfect spot for the 4th!
This was a great place! Easy to get to, and park. It was right next to the gravity park and restaraunts. We had fun watching people swing and fall from tbe porch. All walking distance to all of the action. We stayed with our baby and dog and it was fine. You can see the fireworks right from the front porch. It was clean and Cindy was quick with replying if we had any questions. Over all great we will stay again!

Don't judge the book by it's cover. Very comfortable and safe. Great AC. when you've spent a hot day outside. A bit noisy due to area but great location for fun times and watch fireworks from your deck. A true South Padre experience

Super dog friendly
Easy in and out of neighborhood on foot. Gravity park and restaurants on bay side provided awesome entertainment. Took our long suffering dog to the beach two to three times a day. She loved it.We enjoyed Liam's Steak house for adult time. The deck was nice place to relax. Loved the shower, felt like a spa. Really good to have a baby gate up at the top. Also view of bay for sunsets. We didn't get to see fireworks because it was off season, but I am sure that deck was the place to be. Cindy was easy to communicate with and very helpful. Really enjoyed the stay, will be back.

Did not used the Facility
We had a car accident outside of Corpus Christi and had to wait for 2 days to get a rental car during the Labor Day Weekend. Our Vehicle is a total loss and we had no more time to get down to South Padre Island. I had to use one star in order to send my review. The only bad part is we lost the money we didn't used.

Cozy Place in a Great Location
My wife and I stayed here for 4th of July weekend and couldn't have been happier with this property. It was all we needed in a perfect location. The property is as described and is closer to restaurants and bars which do play music. That said, this is something to consider if you are looking for something more secluded and quiet. It was perfect for us though and we can't wait to go back. Cindy was a pleasure to communicate with and we look forward to our next stay.

Great budget stay!
Perfect little place that’s right in the middle of everything. Host was very friendly and responsive. We were thankful to find this budget friendly stay last minute. We came with our pets and it was nice to have the enclosed patio also. It was our first trip to South Padre, Would rent here again when I return! If you’re lucky enough to be there on a Friday night there is an amazing firework show visible from the deck area.
