The vacation rental, within walking distance of the beach, provided the perfect setting for an unforgettable family getaway. The well maintained and thoughtfully furnished house offered spacious rooms for relaxation. The highlight of our stay was the pool and hot tub, providing a refreshing respite after beach adventures. The beach's proximity allowed for leisurely strolls and breathtaking views. The fully equipped kitchen and cozy living area were perfect for family time. The property management team was responsive and accommodating with any issues we brought to their attention. Overall, this beach house in South Padre Island is a fantastic choice for a family vacation. ##### Brianne L. Stayed 4 nights in May 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Perry G. Oct 1, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Relaxing Really lovely place to host 3 generations! One room is quite small barely enough to fit a bed length and width, I do recommend minor cleaning such as sheets-found dirt particles in the bed in the smaller room. Maybe some cosmetic updates such as painting the rails, walls at the entrance, chipped toilet tank lid, puncture door, cigarette butts outside, dog poop outside in the backyard. And this is because I’m observant…but it’s really a lovely place ##### Perry G. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Priscilla F. Jul 24, 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location, but a few issues The house layout is beautiful & location is amazing! We had issues with ants on the kitchen counter & pantry. The outside trash bin was full, so the outside smelled when we arrived. This also made it challenging for us to throw the inside trash. Restroom sink wouldn’t drain properly. Pool felt heated and grill was dirty. Overall, the house could have used a good cleaning. Couches had stains & some doors need a paint job. The white doors look dirty. Otherwise, we would have rated this house a five. ##### Priscilla F. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Aurora F.

Although We did have to go get a refill on the propane tank ourselves which was supposed to already have been ready for us. And we had to get trash bags because there were none to be found. Another downer was finding proscriptions from previous stays there in kitchen. Overall a good stay would go back. ##### Cindy L. Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Tierney L. Mar 12, 2025 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication #### Not up to date The photos are deceiving. They are definitely photo shopped to make the pool larger and rooms. The hot tub buttons were peeling off, so we didn't know what the buttons controlled. The back side of the house around the roof looks like it has black mold, and the gutter or siding is falling off. We received a text letting us know "If earlier check-in is available, we will text you separately." The day of check-in I made contact a little over one hour earlier than check-in time to ask about checking in early since I never received anything. They told me "early check-in would not be possible because this property doesn't offer it." If it isn't offered, why was it even mentioned? The table was noticeably dirty upon arriving with circles from cups being sat on it which made me question everything else in the house. Take extra trash bags with you as we weren't supplied enough for our stay and had to purchase some. We went during off season so had we booked this during summer when the rates are 3x or 4x what we paid I would be extremely upset. ##### Tierney L.

Does Have a little view of ocean from front balcony which was Nice! The discription of property Rms NOT True…master has King and a small futon you could fit a smaller child on, then there are 2 rms with twin/queen bunk beds, and a TINY 4th rm with no window that has a full/twin bunk bed.All beds were the metal beds you get like for a kids bdrm including the bed frame in master. If you’re 2 larger individuals I’d really want to know the weight rating, not very sturdy. The discription really should be changed to reflect the true sleeping arrangements as if you came with 3 couples and thought you were putting all the kiddos in the rm with all the beds you will be disappointed:-( I could go on about the cleanliness but there is too much to put I wish I could just post pictures:-( The outdoor spaces were GROSS!! I will say they did send someone promptly to clean! The hot tub didn’t work and that was so disappointing as in previous reviews other guests also stated did not work and response was it was fixed it wasn’t:-( No hot tub just a cold tub and then the pool also was not cleaned food in it bottom gross:-( They did send someone to clean and try and fix hot tub but was not fixed during our week stay but pool was cleaned! This could be a Beautiful home but the upkeep needs some help!!! You can tell it’s not cleaned well between guests! baseboards of a home cleaned regularly should not have caked on dirt:-( ##### Amy D. Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### cathy g. Oct 21, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy #### 60th birthday We went to Padre to celebrate 3 of our group’s 60th birthday. The house was open when we got there. The back door would only open occasionally. The hot tub never got hot (the main reason we rented this place was the hot tub). I sent messages to Vacasa. Our first night there, the text (the only way to reach them) reply said they would look into the problem. After I sent 4 messages, we gave up. Sent messages again the 2nd day. This time they said they would send someone to look at the hot tub and back door. No one ever arrived. The bbq grill in the back yard looked like it should have been tossed. Nowhere near what the one in the listing picture showed. We wanted to spray down the patio because there were a ton of ants, but neither of the two hoses worked. There were ants in the kitchen, all over the counters. We were extremely disappointed with the lack of attention paid to this property. The property management is definitely not doing their job. We will not be recommending this property or property management to anyone. ##### cathy g.

Aug 24, 2024 #### Big Home This home was large and fit our party fine, but definitely lacking extras for all the essentials. No extra garbage bags or soap or towels or blankets. The pool and hot tub weren’t in top working condition either so that was really disappointing as that’s why we booked. However the home is very large and fit everyone in our party, when we requested things from the host they did send a house cleaner with some extra things, and someone to clean the pool, but the issue wasn’t resolved. Paid a lot for the issues to happen. ##### Christina T. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael P.

Home has a great pool that was suitable for a party of 11. Home had 4 rooms to accommodate living quarters. Home had a suitable kitchen and dining area for meals and lounging areas both inside and out. No complaints. I wouldn't mind rebooking the place for my next visit. ##### Michael P.

Jun 29, 2024 #### Beautiful and spacious home, great location We had a party of 9 stay at the beautiful Blue Dolphin. Plenty of room and the house was clean upon arrival. The pool and hot tub were sparkling clean and we used it every day. Literally a 5 minute walk to the beach. Only criticism is there are hardly any “extras” in the house. No extra trash bags, 1 extra roll of toilet paper, no coffee or coffee filters, things like that. So be prepared to make a stop at the grocery store if you plan to cook or have several people staying. Fortunately, there is a grocery store right down the street. ##### Jacky N.

When we checked in we found the hot tub water was very low and the pool was cold. I called right away and I was told to fill the hot turn with the garden hose and try the to start it. It didn’t work so I called again. A pool tech was finally sent out and tried to fix it. Know one informed use of what was going on with it before the tech left without the pool and hot tub fixed. I called again the next day the tech was sent out and after several hours was able to get the hot tub fixed. Long story short we never were able to use the pool it was way too cold. I was very disappointed with this rental. Vacasa shouldn’t have listings available if things like this aren’t working. ##### John S.

Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kathleen G. Aug 3, 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location #### Couple friends retreat The space was fantastic, walking distance to the beach and house layout with pool is excellent. Room for improvement in amenities available including, more towels, cleaning supplies, toilet paper, paper goods etc. There were not enough towels provided for our group of 8 adults for basic showering. When we arrived the sheets were not clean on 2/4 beds and there were ants in the pantry - they were very responsive and addressed any issues immediately sending a crew over to clean and address our concerns. Would recommend a more clear explanation of how little is provided in the home as far as amenities or improvements in those areas. ##### Kathleen G.

Dining room ceiling fan didn't work, had trouble with spa but pool guy randomly showed up and fixed it. Perfect family vacation home with everything needed within walking distance! ##### Douglas R.

Located in the heart of the island. The beach is 1/2 a block away, supermarket across the street, several restaurants within a 5 block radius, including the entertainment district! No need for a vehicle. The house is private, spacious and well equipped for large groups. The 4 bedrooms have plenty of room and comfortable beds for everyone. The large backyard has a gas grill and plenty of seating to entertain outdoors. Of course the gorgeous pool and hot tub provided hours of entertainment and relaxation. The hot tub was a pleasure to relax in especially on cool days and nights ! We will be back again and again!! Thanks for everything!! ##### Wade H. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Silver Reef Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Bellingham-Hotels-Silver-Reef-Casino-Resort.h16231932.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn Vernon](https://www.expedia.ca/Childress-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Vernon.h4525899.Hotel-Information) > > [Isla Bella Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Marathon-Hotels-Isla-Bella-Beach-Resort-Spa.h24101706.Hotel-Information) > > [C'mon Inn Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels-Cmon-Inn-Hotel-Suites.h1510580.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairfield Inn & Suites Victoria](https://www.expedia.ca/Victoria-Hotels-Fairfield-Inn-Suites-Victoria.h28368.Hotel-Information) > > [Angel Of The Winds Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Angel-Of-The-Winds-Casino-Resort.h9689970.Hotel-Information) > > [Akwesasne Mohawk Casino Resort and Players Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Hogansburg-Hotels-Akwesasne-Mohawk-Casino-Resort.h6009138.Hotel-Information) > > [Semiahmoo Resort Golf & Spa, Trademark Collection by Wyndham](https://www.expedia.ca/Bellingham-Hotels-Semiahmoo-Resort-Golf-Spa.h13986.Hotel-Information) > > [Bavarian Inn of Frankenmuth](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-Bavarian-Inn-Of-Frankenmuth.h9809515.Hotel-Information) > > [Morning Star Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Anson-Hotels-Morning-Star-Inn.h12988751.Hotel-Information) > > [The Breakers Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-The-Breakers-Palm-Beach.h8479.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Victoria](https://www.expedia.ca/Victoria-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Victoria.h8206987.Hotel-Information) > > [Come Friday Cottages on the Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Galveston-Hotels-Come-Friday-Cottages-On-The-Bay.h23207328.Hotel-Information) > > [Darien Lake Lodge on the Lake](https://www.expedia.ca/Corfu-Hotels-Darien-Lake-Lodge-On-The-Lake.h13279584.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Shadow Ridge I-The Villages](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Shadow-Ridge.h853695.Hotel-Information) > > [The Brook at Turning Stone Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Utica-Hotels-Turning-Stone-Resort-And-Casino.h1684407.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Orchid](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Fairmont-Orchid.h25190.Hotel-Information) > > [Tulalip Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Tulalip-Resort-Casino.h2161524.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Desert-Springs-Resort-Spa.h17123.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Desert Willow Villas, Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Desert-Willow-Villas.h3304313.Hotel-Information) > > [Six Flags Great Escape Lodge & Indoor Waterpark](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-George-Hotels-Six-Flags-Lodge-Indoor-Waterpark.h1385446.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Midland Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Midland-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Midland-Suites.h5388884.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Midland](https://www.expedia.ca/Midland-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Midland.h6036563.Hotel-Information) > > [Shooting Star Casino & Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Thief-River-Falls-Hotels-Shooting-Star-Casino-Hotel.h28874246.Hotel-Information) > > [Canad Inns Destination Center Grand Forks](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels-Canad-Inns-Destination-Center-Grand-Forks.h1713856.Hotel-Information) > > [Margaritaville Lake Resort, Lake Conroe/Houston](https://www.expedia.ca/Conroe-Hotels-Margaritaville-Lake-Resort.h28407.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Hilton-Waikoloa-Village.h19640.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Vacation Club at Desert Oasis](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Welk-Resorts-Palm-Springs.h1140793.Hotel-Information) > > [Horseshoe Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Marble-Falls-Hotels-Horseshoe-Bay-Resort.h1094405.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn Victoria](https://www.expedia.ca/Victoria-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Victoria.h1184075.Hotel-Information)
