Welcome to our Practical Harbor by the Beach #2—a comfortable, walkable
getaway close to everything South Padre Island has to offer. If location
matters most, this spot is hard to beat. You’ll be less than 100 yards from
the beach and within a short 5-minute stroll to countless restaurants, bars,
shops, and family-friendly attractions while still being a really affordable
SPI rental.
This ground-floor condo (no stairs!) is one of only four units in the building
and offers shared access to a quiet / small backyard pool. Inside, you’ll find
a clean, simple space with all-tile floors, high ceilings, an eat-in kitchen
counter, and a cozy corner-bench dining area—great for family meals or game
nights. This property does not have a dishwasher unfortunately The condo has 2
bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. We allow up to 8 people including babies &
toddlers, though the sleeping arrangements are best suited when some guests
are children. The master bedroom features a king bed and private en suite
bathroom.
The guest bedroom includes a fun full-over-full bunk bed with a twin trundle
underneath, offering plenty of sleeping options. The living room has a
standard couch, and we provide a queen airbed for extra guests—just bring
bedding if you plan to use it.
The fully equipped kitchen includes pots, pans, utensils, and dinnerware,
making it easy to cook and save a little money during your stay. A washer and
dryer are also provided—especially helpful for families or longer trips. BBQ
grills are welcome; we simply ask that grilling be done in front of the
building rather than near the shared pool area.
If you’re traveling with a larger group, we manage all four condos in this
building and can help you book multiple units—each is nearly identical inside.
You’ll love how close this condo is to local favorites: CVS is right at the
beach access, Nautico is across the street for great dining, and you can walk
to Meatball Café, Cafe Karma, Grapevine, Longboards, Tequila Sunsets, and the
famous seafood buffet at Louie’s Backyard. Kids will also enjoy nearby Gravity
Park with go-karts and mini golf.
While this condo isn’t newly remodeled & older, it’s fully functional, well-
maintained, and professionally cleaned by South Padre Trips— the top local
management team on the island.
Two off-street parking spaces are included. Up to two pets are welcome for an
additional fee—just let us know. (Pets aren’t allowed in the pool area and
should not be left alone if they may bark.)
Contact us for pool hours, and also we do offer very significant off season
discounts Sept 15 to Dec 15th, as well for discounts for veterans & active
duty military. Please reach out we can let you know we would love to host you.
Fresh Towels & bed linens are provided, as well as a starter pack of soaps and
trash bags though it is not unlimited nor resupplied so please plan
accordingly. We do have coffee, filters, creamer, sweetener, tea, non stick
cooking spray and Salt/Pepper all in the condo too but not unlimited nor
restocked
For stays longer than 3 nights, you can exchange towels and linens for free at
our office, South Padre Island Trips, at 2600 Padre Blvd. Office open 7 days a
week, and we answer phones 24 hours a day, 7 days a week a rare thing for a
