Annual Family Getaway

We visit South Padre every year and this was one of the best places we have stayed. The house was spacious, clean, and in a great location. The only downside was that the pool was more like a hot tub with the TX heat so the adults did not swim. We would definitely rebook earlier in the summer. Great spot!!

Great weekend beach getaway house

Very short walk to the beach. Beach was very clean. Nice set up for my adult children and family. Separate upstairs and down stairs accommodations. The house was clean with the majority of all necessities available. Grocery store is down the block and very convenient. Great location.

Family vacation

The property was clean, it had more than enough room for my family, super close to the water/beach access. The house had all the amenities that we wanted! Much better then renting a hotel room!! The property manager Blanca met us at the property for check-in, she was super nice and went over every detail of the property. Communication was excellent! We highly recomend this property if you are looking for a nice/peaceful family vacation/getaway!

Padre

We had a great time! The house was roomy and very comfortable and clean. It was a 5 minute walk to the beach, a 2 minute walk to the grocery store and also within walking distance of icecream and restaurants. We had a 3 year old so a lock on the top gate that provides access to steps going down to the pool would have been appreciated. It was our only worry.

Clean, Great Layout, Close to the Beach, Close to the Grocery Store, Perfect for Families

We enjoyed our time at the Marineros Family Beach House. The location was great, a quick walk to the Blue Marlin grocery store and a short walk to the beach as well. We had two families staying at the beach house a total of 5 adults and 5 kids and everyone was comfortable and had their own space to rest and relax. It was clean, organized, and you could tell a lot of care was put in to making sure you quickly felt at home. The hosts were responsive and answered all our questions. Great bathrooms with plenty of space in the both kitchens. If you are looking for a location to keep family close, but also not feel crammed together your search can stop here. Book and stay at the Marineros Family Beach House and make lasting memories.

Perfect Location

Location is key at this property! Steps to the grocery and a block from beach access was all our families needed. Units were clean and the beds were comfy. Plenty of room for our party of 12. The Communication and flexibility with the owners was great. We had a lovely visit and hope to visit again. Just a few things to note: only one roll of toilet paper per bathroom. No dishwasher or laundry detergent, no hair dryers, and no condiments in the kitchens (salt, pepper, oil, etc.). This wasn’t a deal breaker, but we would have come a bit more prepared if we had known ahead of time.

Good SPI Location and Lots of Room to Relax

This property was in a nice location convenient to: grocery, restaurants, conveniences, coffee/tea shop and beach, which was a short walk to our beach access. We like having the two-apartment arrangement with each bathroom arranged for convenient use by each bedroom occupant. We used the lower dining and living area as our central gathering, and it was very accommodating. There was a short supply of large dishes, but we managed by using the medium sized ones in a mix and match arrangement. And for me these beds were the most comfortable I have had in the last few placed we have stayed during travel. The listing should be clearer about the access to the upper apartment, it was not a problem for us, but all access does require outdoor traversing, even in rain, which we had, and made us note this fact. It is a very good beach accommodation for family and organized groups on holiday.

Take pictures

We had a great time at the property until a few days after check out. We were told we damaged the property which we didnt. The towels we were accused of ruining, we never saw. The closet we "broke" into was fine when we left. We talked to the property manager upon leaving and none of this was mentioned. They have "pictures" so we can't argue. Take pictures when you leave so this doesnt happen to you! Also, you may need extra pillows and towels. Towels are not the best quality. Two very small pillows per bed.

Nice get a way!!

All in all, it was a great experience from the search, to rental, agreement, check in, stay, and check out. The house was pleasant, clean, located near market, quick access to the beach and other local food spots that were fantastic. The house itself was very nice, but could use a few checks on the safety of tentamos who stay there. The front balcony had two loose balusters, that could be problematic and dangerous any tenant, especially young kids. A lock on the side gates And back gate would be a good measure to allow for items left outdoors to be secured. Also the back gate to another property allows for anyone to walk between the properties, not a welcomed feature when you have unruly back neighbors. Lastly a small portion of cleaning supplies would be good to keep in hand for tenenats so they can aid in keeping the property clean during their stay. We like ensure we leave the property as clean or cleaner than we found it. The house is wonderful and outside of the small more personal preferences and suggestions, we would definitely recommend the house for anyone to enjoy. It’s a wonderful spot to enjoy your vacation. We would definitely rent here again.

Ideal South Padre Location

What an amazing VRBO duplex! We had two families, four adults 8 kids ( 17, 17, 14, 14, 13, 13, 11) and we had plenty of room. We would highly recommend this place and can’t wait to come back again! Both duplexes are spacious, clean, and inviting with the huge sofas and two decks with places to sit. The pool was great to relax it. It is the perfect size for 6-8 people at one time. Between the two units, it was great having two kitchens, two master bedrooms, 4 total bathrooms, two living spaces, and two washer/dryers to use. Blanca the property manager was great at communicating with us and was patient in waiting for us to arrive when we underestimating how long it would take to get over the bridge during rush hour. She made sure everything was ready for us with cable working well. This duplex is ideal for walking distance to great beach location, grocery store, food, shops, and brewery. The kitchen was stocked enough, but I would recommend brining paper plates and cups. I wish we would have bought silverware too, but we just ran the dishes everyday and it was manageable. We were able to do light cooking. Also, the water wasn’t hooked up to the fridge and the tap water wasn’t the best, so we bought bottled water. They provide an ice maker in the upstairs unit. You just need to keep an eye on it and transfer it. The bonus room with the futon off the master bedroom wasn’t as functional if you wanted a private master. We had an amazing time! Thanks!!!
