About this property

¡Pura Playa! Home, Cart & Private Heated Pool! Dogs ok!

  • This 2014 built stilt home is loaded - pool, bbq pit, corn hole boards, and ping pong on the ground floor, with a spacious living room and sleeping for eight upstairs. Your family or friends will enjoy making memories as you live the good life by the pool or at the beach!

    Master bedroom has a queen bed with private bath and the second bedroom also has a queen bed. The kids' room has a bunk bed with trundle. We have plenty of room for the entire family!

    October 2025 update: FALL IS HERE... AND WINTER IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER. WINTER TEXANS WELCOME! Fall and Winter are our favorite times of the year (less crowds and less heat!) The pool can be heated from November through April, so If there's a cold front, turn on the private heated pool! YOU CONTROL THE TEMPRATURE FOR THE HEATED POOL. We are offering CRAZY FAST internet (200mbps) . The restaurants/beaches are fully open and operational and all is quiet on our little street now with construction around us done!

    POOL IS HEATED NOVEMBER-APRIL: however, if you want to heat the pool outside of those dates, not a problem - just know it's a $50/day extra fee.

    We own both Pura Playa and Pura Sol - identical homes next door to each other- perfect for large, extended families and friends. If this home is booked, check out the other.

    Expectations - we expect you to have a great time... You should expect some sand in the pool (you are at the beach!), some wear and tear on our golf cart (you are at the beach!) and a clean vacation rental! We are alway around to help you enjoy your stay, so just let us know if can!

    COVID-19 Disclaimer: By renting this home, guests acknowledge that an inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any place where people are or have been present. By renting our home, you and any guests voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to COVID-19 and agree not to hold the owner of this home responsible for any illness or injury.

    Golf Cart Disclaimer: If you choose to use a golf cart, understand that you assume all risks of doing so, and you and your insurance company are responsible for any property damage or personal injury - be safe and have fun!

This beach house was a blast! The heated pool was a daily must (and nightly too), and the golf cart made getting to the beach and around town easy and fun. The house was comfy, clean, and had everything we needed. Zero stress, maximum vacation vibes. We’d book it again in a heartbeat!

We had an amazing stay at this beach house! The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The heated pool and spacious outdoor area were highlights—perfect for lounging, meals, and evenings together. Having a golf cart included was a huge bonus and made getting around so easy. The location is absolutely perfect, with convenient beach access and everything close by. The hosts were responsive and thoughtful, making the entire experience seamless. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it.

Beach Bliss

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Pura Playa! The house and property were very clean and it was the perfect setup for our family of six. We loved the pool with the privacy fence and appreciated the extra perks such as a ping pong table, corn hole, beach toys and the golf cart. We were minutes away from the beach which made the experience even better. We would definitely stay here again!

ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!

Before booking the house we had a few questions and the owners wrote back right away. Great location, close to town and to the beach! When we arrived the house and pool were clean and ready for us to enjoy our vacation. Having the golf cart included made our trip a lot more simple! The pingpong table was super fun to have for the evenings. Rooms are spacious and beds are comfortable. We will for sure be back!

Family mini vacation

This is our second time renting from this property manager. The house was perfect for our family mini vacation this past weekend. This house is super close to the beach. You can walk or take the golf cart. The golf cart is the perfect addition! Our kids loved riding around in it almost as much as going to the beach :) No issues and will def stay again.
