Very close to the beach walking distance. The only thing is it was very small, it had everything for you too cook. Maybe a chance It would be changing the chairs in the kitchen, the couch as well, we didn't really sat on it because we started to itch, it look wear out. But it was doable. ##### Rosa G.

The house was very clean & within walking distance to the beach. The owners were quick to respond with any questions we had. The only negative to this property, is that it only has 1 bathroom. But with our group, it wasn't a big deal. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a place to stay in South Padre Island. Looking forward to going back again, hopefully next summer. ##### Tina C.

Ernest was seriously amazing and very accommodating with special requests. He communicated back quickly. The beach access was great. It was so close which made it nice to go to and from when my son needed his nap. The porch was a great size and nice for hanging out on. The only thing I wanted that we didn’t have was a second mirror. Getting ready for dinner was a real task with only one mirror and three of us needing it! I would 100% come back to this place. It was updated and had good decor. Lots of light from the windows and even a little shower to rinse all the sand off before going inside. ##### Renee D.

Fantastic property with great beach access. Literally a two minute walk across Gulf Blvd. The place was clean, cute and roomy. Ernesto was super easy to communicate with. Our upstairs neighbors were not as considerate as one would hope, but that is in no way a reflection on the property nor the owner.
