The kitchen is fully stocked with all the dishes, pots, pans, utensils, and new stainless steel appliances you will need to prepare delicious meals.

This is the 5th time we have stayed at this house. For the most part it is perfect. However, the Stove needs to be replaced. It takes forever to cook on the stove and the oven has a burnt out element. In addition, the fire detectors constantly go off when the kitchen gets smoky making bacon.

Six day stay
Very good location to activity and close to beach. House was very unclean and beds are very uncomfortable. In the room across from the bathroom the sheets didn’t even fit the bed. We found dirty underwear left in the house from the last renters. The washer and dryer do not work well: the dryer didn’t dry anything unless it was one or two items and if we used the dryer and left the bedroom open it sets off the smoke detector. The outside of the house is very very dirty. The amount of hair we found in the pool things that you should clean out was disgusting we almost could have made a sweater! We made the best of the situation and enjoyed our trip but for what you charge for that house it should have been much cleaner!

Check in was easy, and everyone I talked to with the process was friendly and helpful. I will definitely choose this place again to stay at in the future!

Great house for a large group
We had a great stay. I only marked it down because there was construction on both sides of the house so it was pretty noisy and they started early in the morning. The house was great for our large group. The house is definitely older and a little run down-but worked great for what we needed. So if you are wanting a brand new house, this one is not for you. Because the house is older, it didnt feel as clean to me. But again, worked great for what we needed!

It’s functional
Our family stayed there for a reunion of 22 people. Based on the pictures and the cost of the property, we expected to be walking into a much higher quality house. While it fit our needs in size and number of rooms, it was severely outdated. The furniture was pretty trashed, and the interior and exterior of the house needed updating. Many appliances were broken or unusable, including the grill, which we intended to use and couldn’t. The outdoor furniture smelled moldy, and should be replaced. There was also construction that caused a noise disturbance happening right next to the house the whole time we were there, and we weren’t notified that would be happening. There were not any cleaning items to use, and when we requested a broom, it was very obviously the cheapest broom they could buy from the local store. We were also notified well after our refund date that we would not be receiving any basic paper staples or anything to start with including trash bags and toilet paper, which also felt misleading based on the price. Overall, it worked for our needs, but for the price we expected a lot more than what we received

How to describe my stay?
First off, let me qualify my review by saying, I normally only give a review if the property is exceptional or if it was a disaster. This property was neither. But, due to the large amount I paid to stay here, it warrents my honest review. Our week stay (Saturday-Friday) was over $10,000. This property housed all 22 of us with plenty of room. Our group consisted of 9 adults and 13 children, ages 16-6 years old. One teen slept on a futon in an out-of-the-way hallway on the 3rd floor. All others slept in bedrooms. The property is interesting, it's a large old house that has probably been modified a few times. Quite frankly, it is in need of a makeover. This home has been used heavily and it shows. There are signs of use and abuse everywhere. Kitchen cabinet doors are broken, doors to bedrooms don't open as thy should, tile is broken and duck-taped in place, refrigerator door handles are misaligned, furniture is old and very tired looking. The place is functional, especially for a large group, but that is all. I definitely expected more for what I paid. One great aspect was the air-conditioning. The property has two units, as it should. Once we figured that out and reset the thermostats to a comfortable temperature, we were able to handle staying in this broken down old home. The supposedly well-stocked kitchen is a miss mash of whatever is working and leftover. Nothing matches, several different plates, bowls, pots with lids that don't fit, etc. No, I would not return!

There was plenty of space plus extra for the 10 of us that stayed. It was like being on vacation with a group of people but also having enough space to have your own time your spouse! SPI was very prompt and responsive to any questions/concerns we had. We had a great time and would stay at this property again!

We had a great time at this rental. Great location and within walking distance to everything. The pool and hot tub were a big hit. The pool table was also great. Nice big kitchen which was well stocked. The only problem was the water had to be turned off part of a day because of a city issue. We celebrated two birthdays and our 50th wedding anniversary. Perfect place for our whole family. Thank you for a very memorable vacation with our family.

Plenty of room for my team of five. This is a very nice property close to both beach and bay. Easy check in/out, just wish we could check in early. Otherwise, property is close to several stores and restaurants, all within walking distance. There is also a bus on the island but we didn't use it. Beds were comfy, a/c was perfect, and kitchen was adequate with plenty of utensils. We did not have any issues during our visit and SPI rentals was very commincative from booking, arrival, and check out. I'd definitely recommend this property for any group outing.

Our Family Vacation on South Padre Island
While the house had the required space needed for all family members, with large bedrooms, the house and patio furniture were not at all clean. Everything outside had to be cleaned by me/us before using. The kitchen drawers were equally unclean and consequently we did not use ANY of them. The cloth furniture was full of spots and stains. We were grateful there was no carpeting, and actually, we would have not stayed had there been. The pools flirtation system left a lot to be desired as well as the way the pool heat/hot tub worked. You could either run the heat through one or the other, not both at the same time. With ages from 81 down to 12 there were some members of the family that never got in due to the temperature being too cold. Also the water was very cloudy, giving thought to its sanitation. On the plus side I can say when we called about the pool someone came over quickly to show us how to alternate between the pool and hot tub, not an ideal situation. Also when we used the BBQ management was called and quickly came with a stick lighter to get the propane lit. I'm really shocked that you could charge me a cleaning fee when we probably left the place cleaner than when we found it. For that amount of rent all of the interior cloth couches and chairs need a deep cleaning or replacement and all the patio furniture, with the exception of the table & chair set should be replaced. Everyone in the family noted how much smaller the pool looked in person than online. We loved the island, this was our second trip, but sadly if choosing again we would not stay at that location. Clearly the pictures online were taken when everything was brand new, with a wide angle lens, and not the way it REALLY looks.

Amazing location and next to everything and walk-able for the entire trip. You rely do not need a car. You can walk to the beach, restaurants and entertainment. The pool is heated so even when it was cold the kids had something to do. The pool table and Foosball table helped on days it was too windy to go outside for the kids. Large bar area with fridge helped keep us organized and out of the kitchen for drinks.

Extended family vacation
We took a Christmas vacation with extended family, total of 15 of us. The house had plenty of room for everyone, lots of sleeping space and lounge space. My parents were supposed to have joined us and I ended up thankful they didn’t. There are a lot of stairs that would not have been easy on them. None of the bedrooms have a bathroom attached (minus one off the kitchen but it had bunkbeds in it) so it wasn’t an ideal set up for the older family members. Kids enjoyed the pool but the hot tub never really got hot. The house was in a great location, we could easily walk to the beach or restaurants. We did have a few concerns and the property manager answered quickly and came to assist. My cons would be that the house just wasn’t very welcoming. Other vrbo’s and beach rentals we’ve stayed at have had some beach items that people could use. For example: beach chairs, toy, etc. That’s always a bonus. There were no board games or lounge blankets. Other houses have left little welcome folders telling about the best places to eat and shop, and fun beaches etc. Just those minor homey details that we didn’t realize how much we’ve appreciated until we stayed at a house that didn’t have them. Still, overall a great experience!

Great stay and good location
House is very spacious and there are enough bedrooms and bathrooms for a large family. Pictures are pretty accurate. Location is nice and pool is a bonus. We rented golf carts to travel the island. Had a blast. Beach is nice. Pool was awesome. Cons - the bathrooms smelled like pee even after a shower. House could use a deep cleaning. 2nd floor has two couches that have the queen-size pull out mattresses. No cushion at all. We wanted to use it so the kids can have one night to sleep together in one room. Didn't happen though cause you could feel the springs. Overall, we really enjoyed the time we spent together here. Thank you.

Fantastic place
We have been renting this house for the last 5 years. Over those years we have seen various improvements (New A/C, Stove, patio furniture, etc). With a house this size and the amount of tenants it sees, it is not uncommon to experience some issues. This last trip the dishwasher was not working and no hot water in the kitchen sink. In addition the hot tub was not heating. In every instance when we reach out to SPI and they are VERY reactive and have someone address it immediately. In both instances they were very minor: hot water valve to sink/dishwasher was turned off (who knows why) and hot tub was just a setting adjustment. Despite the minor inconveniences over the years, there is NO BETTER place to host large gatherings on the island! I would suggest a "punch": list that confirms the house is 100% ready for the next tenant. Think home inspection :-) Finally, I suspect the "bedbug" concerns are really just mosquito bites. This past weekend they were relentless :-( Next year, we plan on bringing fogger and such to try and minimize them. I can state we DID NOT experience a bed bug issue.

Third World
First off, I've stayed in many VRBO's across many countries and I can tell you that this property was the dirtiest I've seen. From the moment we arrived to fly covered overflowing trash bins greeting us in the driveway to the parting gifts of bed bug bites we got all it all at this place. You'd think in the middle of the Delta case ramp up that cleanliness would be priority from rental agencies but these folks must have missed the message. I'll give a quick list of pros and cons. I'll get the pros out of the way first: 1: Pool was very clean 2: Lots of separate bedrooms with many beds 3: We found a open bag of gummy bears in the couch cushions 4: A/C worked good CONS: 1: Hair everywhere 2: Kitchen cabinets had food smeared on outside 3: Black mildew on most A/C vents 4: Small roaches everywhere on kitchen counters 5: A/C Return air almost plugged off with dust 6: Mildew in showers 7: Bed bugs 8: Living room furniture had all kinds of stains on the fabric (gross) In summary, if you're looking to immerse yourself and your guests to a 3rd world experience I highly recommend this place. However, if you're looking for a clean destination that's up to most peoples standards I'd keep searching because this isn't it. And I won't even mention what I paid for this 3 day experience.
