Amazing property!
We rented home for a small family reunion for my mom’s 90th birthday. This home will not disappoint! Close to beach, close to Blvd, 2 downstairs bedrooms, no steep staircase, 2 upstairs bedrooms, large kitchen and dining area, large living room and a mini kitchen with fridge downstairs. Bathrooms are very spacious. Home extremely clean. Kitchen is well stocked with cooking utensils, pots/pans, dishes, etc. Love this home. Another plus…great owners. Very helpful and very easy to communicate with.

Perfect Getaway
This property was perfect for the second time! These hosts have thought of literally everything you could imagine to make your stay enjoyable and easy!! We were able to travel lighter knowing they had so many things we needed for the beach and home on site already. All of the little details from the cute matching decor in each room that is themed to the tiny things like having a cooler to use on the beach…they’ve thought of it all!! Well worth the price! Beautiful location! The beach access down the street is awesome! We definitely plan to stay here any time we come to the island in the future! Thank you for providing such a wonderful vacation experience!! Oh, and if you love Tetris as much as I do, don’t plan to get any sleep, the arcade is addicting!!! 😊

Longhorn Family Vacation
This house was amazing. All that was described in the home, was accurate. Our family had no complaints. We were in awe in we first walked in. It was not only because of the decor but also the beautiful backsplash around the home, kitchen and bathrooms. There was plenty of room for everyone in our family that came into town to enjoy their vacation. The owners thought of everything when they put this vacation home together; for families of all ages, even fur-babies were taken into account. The backyard and pool is just the perfect size. Plenty of seating for everyone. Love that they have plenty of beach towels. Our family loved the ice machine (for us that was a bonus). As we love to use a lot of ice in our drinks. Our family did not go the beach because we enjoyed the pool. It is nice to know that the owners have plenty of beach gear in their home for your use and you do not have to pack those items from home. We will definitely use this home again when we head back to SPI. A friend of mine already asked for information on this home.

Nice pool outside and owners have a great classy home that felt cozy and plenty of room and we had 16 people. Would recommend this place to any of my friends and family. Thanks for the stay we really enjoyed it.

Great Stay!
Great stay…super host and on island management…very responsive to questions throughout stay. Plenty of space and very clean. The downstairs game room and access to pool were terrific. Our granddaughter could not get enough of the pool! Awesome shading in afternoon around pool made it a great place to hangout and enjoy the evenings. Ice machine downstairs was a great bonus! Loved the huge dining table, plenty of space for the seven adults, 5 year old and 6 month old to enjoy meals together. Kitchen could have used some pantry space for grocery items, but was well stocked with everything needed to cook and prep meals. Parking was a little tight for our four vehicles, but we made it work. Overall a great house/location. Will definitely consider for future trips to SPI!

Trip for the books
The house was amazing. Just as described honestly better in person. Short walk or golf car drive to the beach. The pool was so nice, It was really nice to have a whole pool to ourselves. I have two littles that Couldn’t do the beach a long time and the pool was perfect for them. The game room was a fun, when we weren’t at the beach or getting ready for bed the adults enjoyed a nice game of pool. The beds were comfortable and was nice having a fridge both up and downstairs. Everyone in our family had a wonderful time and honestly look forward to next year!! Thank you for allowing us to enjoy this beautiful house!

Everything a VRBO should have
The goal of our vacation was to have a place where kids 8-11 and teens could be self entertained so the adults could have fun. Heated pool, pool toys, beach gear, beach toys, pool table, arcade, etc. Kitchen appliances where great to make meals and a bonus grill/smoker. Bonus was ice maker. Great location, 1/2 block from beach, restaurants, ice cream, shops, liquor store. Short drive for groceries. Great communication from managing party.

Tropical Dream review
We all enjoyed our stay at Tropical Dream! The house is decorated beautifully, loved the artwork, gorgeous tile in the bathrooms and kitchen. The kitchen is a dream. There was plenty of room for all of us! We spent a lot of time in the pool. The kids loved the karaoke machine! The time at the beach was awesome and it was a short walk to get there. It was a good location, there are so many restaurants in the area. We loved it and would definitely stay again. The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, utensils, dishes. We were a little surprised that there were no kitchen food staples provided and only 2 rolls of TP and 1 roll of paper towels. But that was no big deal! We had a great week! Thank you!!!!

Beautiful home
The weather was really terrible this year, so this house was the perfect place to be stuck inside with the family. The owners spared no expense remodeling the house. The tiles throughout the house were gorgeous, plus the beadboard ceilings and fabulous kitchen. The kitchen was fully stocked, there is not one thing I missed having. Considering we cooked a thanksgiving meal, that’s impressive! The only problem we had is the pool heater broke just before we got there. But the manager and owner worked with us and kept me informed. A great comfortable house for a family!

Absolutely Amazing!
This property is on a nice, quiet street close to the beach. Everything was spotless and super clean! We had one small issue with the pool heater but the owners and Amber went above and beyond to remedy the issue as quick as possible and make everything right! Really appreciate that since the last place we stayed in Padre just told us they didn’t care when we had an issue there. Couldn’t ask for better communication or a more cozy, fun place to stay! Already coming back next year because we loved it so much!!
