Review Casa Gardenia was the perfect vacation home, and so close to the beach!We had an amazing time and our whole group of 8 slept comfortably with space to spare. There was so much open space that we could all enjoy South Padre island whether it be on the huge deck, in the spacious kitchen cooking together, or in the plunge pool cooling off! This is a house you can truly feel at home. It is outfitted with everything you need; beach towels,bicycles, pots and pans, and even a wagon to tote your things down to the o! We never wanted to leave! The bedrooms are huge and the bathrooms are all fully updated and beautifully done. Jan, the owner and manager of Vacation Villas did an amazing job catering to our group and we look forward to coming back next year to have just as an amazing experience as this year was.
