If you are looking for a superb, walkable location our Practical Harbor by the Beach we think is a great choice. This is clean, yet older / basic 2 bedroom, 2 bathrooms that is less than 100 yards to the beach with many restaurants, bars & shopping within a 5 min walk

 

This is one of 4 condos in this building with a pool in the back. Ground floor, no stairs required. Inside you will find all tile floors, high ceilings, and a eat in counter + unique corner bench style dining table all at a very affordable price

 

We do allow up to 8 people, though the bedding is more suitable for that many only if you have some kids involved. You are allowed to bring a BBQ grill though we ask you do this in the front of the building not by the pool as that space is shared with all guests

 

You will find the kitchen is fully equipped with all pots, pans, dishes etc. to save time & money doing a bit of cooking at the condo as it is ready to go. . This property does not have a dishwasher unfortunately

 

The master bedroom has a king bed with en suite bathroom. The guest bedroom has a fun full sized bed over a full size with a roll out twin sized trundle bed for much sleeping space.

 

There is a couch in the living room & we provide a queen sized airbed for more sleeping areas, but please do bring bedding if you plan on using. The couch is not a sleeper sofa unfortunately.

 

As we manage this entire 4 plex, contact us if you would like to book more than one condo here - they are nearly identical inside.

The public beach access is at the end of Harbor Street, with CVS right there, superb food across the street at Nautico, or walk down to delicious Italian at Meatball Cafe, Cafe Karma, Grapevine with gluten free & organic choices, or Subway, Dairy Queen, & McDonald's if you want something quick. Walkable to Longboards Cafe, Tequila Sunsets, famous Louise Backyard’s seafood buffet, or fun for the kids at Gravity Park with go carts & mini golfing.

 

While this is not a brand new remodel, it is fully functional, professionally maintained & cleaned locally by the best property manager on Island which is South Padre Trips

 

There are 2 off street parking spaces here included with each condo. Up to 2 pets are allowed for an additional fee, please just ask. Pets are not allowed in pool area though & may not be left alone to 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 host

What Our Guests Are Saying

  • Excelente ubicación, nos sentimos muy cómodos , como en casa . solo que considero que el apartamento es solo como para 6 personas , no más ya que el cuarto de la litera es pequeño, la recámara principal está muy amplia y bonita , me encantaría que pusieran más productos de limpieza para la cocina. El anfitrión respondía inmediato muy atento.

  • We got there right at 3 and the place was not ready. The cleaning lady was changing the sheets and fixing the beds. Tried to use the washer and it was too noisy. Also found tras under the couch. Other than that it was fine. Close to the beach and close to the store.

  • I would like to start off with Hilda . She was amazing. She responded very fast. Everything was perfect. It was a great location right in the center of everywhere that we like to go locally and I just would like to add that I’m definitely going to contact them to rent from them again exceptional service

  • Not handicap accessible, no pool access fr door as described, 2 of the 3 days people above us ran like a heard of elephants all times of day and night so i didnt sleep. Wall in bathroom has leak and sheetrock is soft which probably means mold, the washer and dryer totally sucks and beyond loud, doesn't dry, master bed was horrible, couch in living room looks like it came fr TEMU and beyond tiny and can fit 2 small skinny people. Pool was dirty and we didnt use. I cant complain too much as it could have been infested by bugs etc. This house the town calls the party house i was told .

  • This place is very well located, good walking distance from the beach, and the CVS in front is very convenient. The place was very clean. Definitely we would come again!

  • It was a great place to stay at. The location was perfect and the host was very helpful. I’ll be recommending this place to friends.

  • I enjoyed this place, I over estimated the pool size but we still had lots of fun. The host was very responsive, very quick as well. Concerned that came up, concerned that was addressed. A+ for customer service.

  • Had a nice 4 days over a very busy 4th of July weekend. Place was as expected from the pictures and as described.
