An Oasis from home
The Casa de Tortuga is better than pictured or imagined! We were a party of 10 and very well accommodated. Instead of writing a detailed review, I can really allow the pictures and owner description to speak for themselves! The grounds and pool were spectacular! When we arrived the home was ready for us-a/c and fans were on and we were welcomed to a cool environment. The kitchen is probably the best equipped that I've ever seen in a rental property. There were more than enough dishes to serve all of us. Also, there were plenty of places to hang damp swim wear. The owners also welcomed our dog who loved exploring the grounds. And their communication with me was excellent from the time we arrived until our departure. I would gladly stay here again.

Great Experience
The property was exactly how it is presented online and we couldn’t have been happier. We had a party that included 4 teens, a baby, and 3 adults. There was plenty of room and the house was very presentable on arrival. Check in process was easy and management was responsive to our 3 questions. Location was perfect. Close to the beach and walking distance to the theme park, restaurants and other amenities. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you! .

Such an AMAZING home!
We took a 4 day trip to SPI with the family like we used to when we were younger but this home was our absolute favorite place to stay! We will definitely be staying again if given the opportunity! It was a short walk to the beach and was big enough for the 13 of us. The owners had everything we needed inside the home (ie, kitchen essentials, bath towels, pool towels, etc). The pool was just perfect and we loved the privacy of having it all to ourselves. Jack and Esther had everything one would need in this home and they were quick to respond to any inquiries we had. We would highly recommend this home!

Perfect, best VRBO yet
We have stayed at quite a few VrBOs over the past few years and this one exceeded our expectation. The pool was perfection and warm and the pool light was so fun for the kids. They swam all day everyday. Downstairs kitchenette is perfect for quick snacks and storing beverages and snacks and conveniently located next to the pool! Kids loved the bunk room and hung out in it when not in the pool. Traveling with 6 girls the guys appreciated 3 bathrooms. Communication with host was so easy and they always responded in a timely fashion. The house was private, quite, prime location and everything we were expecting and more. If we ever go back to south padre island, we will 100% be staying at this house again.

September is our favorite time to come to South Padre. We came with 4 adults and 5 small children. The pool was a perfect size for us. We appreciated the extras such as beach chairs, a cooler and a wagon for our short walk to the beach. Beautiful sunsets at a boardwalk area on the bayside were just one block away. The property managers were very diligent to respond to any issues that we had. We would definitely stay here again.

A Paradise in its own right
We’ve stayed in South Padre before, but nothing has compared to this beautiful home. It’s well stocked, gorgeously decorated and comfortably accommodating for a large group. The pool was so inviting that I had to drag my parents out of it to get down to the beach. The house itself is like a mini resort. Our favorite feature was the downstairs kitchenette that allowed us to prepare and enjoy barbecue and drinks poolside without having to run up and down the stairs to the main kitchen. It was wonderful bonding time with our family, we didn’t want to leave! I would definitely book Casa de Tortugas again!

Fantastic place!
We had a fabulous time! It was awesome that the owners provided beach towels, chairs, a wagon, and pool toys. The outdoor shower was really helpful too, especially with kids. Our group of 11 had plenty of room. The location was great too- a 10 minute or less walk to the beach for most of our group- and one person would drive the car with the awnings, chairs, coolers, etc, to park closer. There were plenty of spots in the small parking lot by the beach access on weekdays as long as we got there in the morning. But it would be easy for one person to drive up & drop off the heavy stuff & go back to the house & walk too. Highly recommend! If we can swing it, we’ll be coming back. Thank you for a great stay!
