About this property
South Padre Cottage within walking distance to everything Fun!
This older island home features a nice large front deck which allows for perfect viewing of the weekend fireworks and people watching! House is located near attractions like; the historic Louie's Backyard, Coconuts bar and grill, Dairy Queen, Gravity Park, Pizza Hut and more! We're in the center of all the fun and engaging activities during your stay. The island cottage is an OLDER unit which means it will not have all the amenities of a modern condo. What the Cottage lacks in amenities, it makes up for in charm and simplicity. Again, this was an older island home as such there may have some quirks and unpolished aesthetics. If you're looking for a simple place to relax, detach and have as your home base for experiencing the fun activities on the island, then this is a great property for your next Island adventure! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask before booking.

We had a great time at the cottage. It was clean and comfortable. The location was great for walking to the beach and restaurants.
This was our second stay. We love the location near all of the fun. Our 2 year old loved being able to hop on his bike and ride around the gravity park and bay. Clean and has everything we needed. Making our tradition to stay!
Perfect size and location for a couple looking to spend a few days together. Because of the location expect some noise though. However, didn't lose sleep. Will definitely be booking again.
Great cozy property for a long weekend. Right across the parking lot from Gravity Park, as well as several other good bars and restaurants. Awesome view of the fireworks show from the front deck. Cindy, was on top of any questions that we had. We would certainly stay again.
Great experience and communication with host. Property is perfect for a couple's getaway. Cozy, yet still comfortable enough. Right in the middle of the island and withing a 7 minute walk to the beach. Definitely
booking next year !
thebeach.bDefinitelbooking it again !
We had the best time in a decade. I have been coming to SPI since the early 80's. My family lives(d) there. Most have passed :(. It's an awesome location. We will definitely be back with u guys!! Thank You Very Much.
My & My girlfriend booked here for our first vacation. Perfect spot we were in walking distance from everything and Gravity Park was right in front of us. Perfect place to stay at on South Padre. It felt like we were at home I love the set up of everything especially the way the house was formatted. Worth every dollar spent! We also had excursions that were walking distance from the house including Bars. City was alive but when we got back it was always quiet. Will book again. Thank you again!
We enjoyed our stay at this little cottage and it met our needs. Our biggest complaint was the cleanliness, the floors were very covered with hair, which made the whole thing seem nasty and gross!!
This was the perfect stay! Enjoyed seeing the fireworks display right from the balcony! Definitely recommend was clean as well. Great distance walking to places
We loved everything about the cottage. It was clean and so welcoming. We loved that it was pet friendly. The location was absolutely perfect! We could see the ocean from our deck. We walked to Gravity Park. It was easy to get to the beaches. The attractions we did were close and easy to get to. Check in and check out went smoothly. Our host was very easy to contact. We had a great time and would definitely stay again if we return.
It’s a little dingy because it’s old and isn’t updated, but other then that it was clean. comes with a few dishes but would definitely bring more if you plan on cooking yourself as it’s limited. It’s great for walking most places. As little as I communicated with the host, she was nice and I’m sure she would answer any questions or help you with anything. Over all I would stay again. It’s comfortable for 2 maybe 3 people but idk that I would try to fit more than that.
This sweet house is a cozy little spot within walking distance to all sorts of restaurants and shops! Great view of the bay fireworks! Also, very clean.
Property was as described. Don’t judge a book by its cover, the place is just right. Ocean is a few blocks away, the bay is 2 blocks away. Great for the kids, front patio is clutch.

This property was exactly what we were looking for. My family of 4 was very comfortable. It was a 1 bedroom but we had plenty of room. There was plenty of restaurants and family entertainment within walking distance. We drove to the beach only because of the amount of things we took. Only recommendation I would make would be slightly better toilet paper, I bought my own, and more towels for bathing.

Don't judge the book by it's cover. Very comfortable and safe. Great AC. when you've spent a hot day outside. A bit noisy due to area but great location for fun times and watch fireworks from your deck. A true South Padre experience
