Great spot to stay on the island

Communication was prompt and very helpful. The house was just what we were looking for. Plenty of indoor and outdoor space, great location for bouncing around the island for different activities we had planned. Would definitely stay here again when we are back in the area!

We have 2 teenage boys and our family of 4 was perfectly comfortable and had more than enough space here. We love the location and the outdoor seating area and outdoor shower were so nice to have. Thank you for opening your vacation home to us. We hope to return!

As described and accessible!

The condo was exactly as described in the listing and pictures. I wanted to stay somewhere handicap/wheelchair accessible and this condo was great: No stairs entryway, two close reserved parking spots, a walk-in shower (with small lip only), and a spacious living room. The location is also great. It is only a very short drive to the beach which is perfect for the price.

Spring Break trip for Tucker Family

We LOVED this property and the owners! Easy check in, great communication, we had everything we needed, extra paper towels and washing detergent was a big plus! The location is near everything you may need and just a quick drive to white cap beach! Plenty of room for our kiddos. The pool was really nice and well kept! It was very quiet in the evenings and we felt very safe. We will book again with Ruben and Deanna! Thank you so much!

Very nice cabana nice stay

To start the pictures are accurate and the house is as described. We loved the location it is on the island outside of the city but a easy trip back to attractions in the city. The cabana was clean and very well stocked. We loved setting out on the patio and eating at the outside table. When we arrived I had an issue with the WIFI and my call to the owners was promptly answered and the issue was resolved. We would recommend this property to anyone coming to the area and would rent it again if we came back to the area.

Home away from home

I was constantly amazed and impressed by the touches that made this property comfortable and inviting. They thought of everything! I’ve never stayed in such a well-stocked, clean, cozy place before. The owners were a joy to deal with, the place was quiet and had all the amenities we hoped for, and it was close to everything we needed. Don’t hesitate - this is the place!! We had such a great vacation that we’re planning to make it a yearly thing, and we’re excited to stay at this home every year. My only wish is that the mattresses are updated soon (showing their age!), but the rest of the experience was so fabulous that I’d stay here again in a heartbeat even if they weren’t. Thank you for sharing your fabulous property with us and for making our time on Padre so wonderful. We’ll be back!

Beautiful and charming

The hosts thought of all of the things we might need while vacationing, including sand toys and beach gear. There was more than enough space for my family of seven. The three tvs in the unit were great for when we ready to unwind at the end of the night and were all able to watch our favorite shows

Private getaway

This home offers complete privacy as the home does not actually connect with any other units. The locking option on the gate is an added safety plus. The homeowner was prompt to address any concerns we had during our stay. We recommend this property a thousand times over!

comfortable, clean, convenient

This property is well appointed and convenient to EVERYTHING!! We appreciated the attention to detail, the coastal vibe, the small things that made us feel at home. Although we had no children staying with us, the cottage has added touches for families with children. We wouldn't hesitate to stay again, and hope that we can! Deanna and Ruben were easy to contact and answered the few questions that we had.
