Perfect Multi-Family Vacation House

The Tropical Dream house was the perfect location for our multi-family trip to South Parde Island. It is setup perfect with bedrooms on multiple levels each with their own bathroom. Provided each family with their own space and the teenager girls with their own bathroom. The house is perfectly decorated and has been recently renovated, it's just very well put together and you feel at home, not a sterile rental property. It also has everything you need including things you expect like a coffee maker, plates silverware, etc. The surprise is that it also includes beach equipment which is so hard to figure out when you fly to a beach location and can't bring the chairs, coolers, etc. This house has all of those things for your use and is super close to the beach making it a great setup. Not to mention it has a commercial ice machine in the basement! Will save you a ton on not having to buy ice for coolers or drinks, a real game changer, we now want one in our home, lol. The basement game room is a cool hangout for a vacation home, it has a pool table, video game machine, huge TV, and a karaoke machine. So much fun was had hanging out in that room.And don't forget about the beautiful, heated pool (heater was working, rare for a rental house). Just a few other quick hitters: - House has large driveway for multiple cars - Hosts are super responsive - Close to drug and grocery stores and tons of souvenir shopsWe loved our time at Tropical Dream!

Great place

Home was spotless and had great pool area! We had an issue with the microwave not working and after a call to property manager, was replaced quickly! The only thing I would request is more garbage bags for each can. Great place and would definitely rent again!

Best VRBO yet!

My family consisted of 16 people two grandparents several parents and teenage two grade school grandchildren. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. The pool was the most fun for the kiddos and adults. Being steps away from the beach and all the beach equipment being with the stay made it even better we stayed during spring break season but having the house be so private made it NOT feel like a big frat party.

Lots of space!

Beautiful four bedroom, two stories, with pool in the backyard! Apart from the few people staying next-door that could see over the fence when they went up their stairs, the backyard was nice and private, and the pool was amazing!The ice machine downstairs was a definite plus, as well as the brand new ninja blender! Plenty of room for when I had friends visiting throughout the month of February.We had a couple issues with things not working (AC, Wi-Fi), but within a couple hours of contacting the management company, they were fixed! They were things that were out of anyone’s control, and the fact that they got fixed as quickly as they did was amazing!

Awesome Home

Loved staying at this home! Close to the beach and very clean and roomy! We loved the pool after hot days on the beach. The game room was fun also! The home had an ice maker to fill up our coolers every day for the beach! Such a great addition! Would definitely stay here again!

Everything you could possibly want!

We had a great stay at Tropical Dream. It was clear the owners had decorated it with love and an artistic eye. The house was very clean, we got help immediately when we asked for it. And the walk to the beach was very short. Plus everything you could possibly need was there. They even had a small air compressor for blowing up pool toys. The pool was beautiful! The ice machine, the beach wagons, the beach toys were all great. They even had multiple camp chais that you could take to the beach and two coolers. You really don’t have to bring anything but your self and your clothes!

Absolute perfection

We visit South Padre multiple times a year, but this was our first time staying off of the beach. I was a bit nervous it would be less enjoyable, but this property was so amazing - I would definitely stay here again! The walk to the beach was just as convenient as many of the walks from ocean-view condos. The owners also provided everything needed for a beach day, while also provided so many amenities provided on the property, we almost didn't want to leave it! From the landscaping, to the choices made inside - it was beautiful, comfortable, and even felt cosy for a large space! It was perfect for our large group. Highlights: the comfortable beds, the ice machine (amazing!!!), ceiling fans in every room, the pool table and game room in general, the pool area and landscaping around it, the comfy large couch and giant table that everyone could sit around in the living area, the shaded patio, and the entire house cooling so well. You could tell that the owners invested a lot into the property and were very intentional about every decision. We had everything we needed to enjoy our trip and then some! HIGHLY recommend!

Excellent family vacation spit

Eventing about the house was amazing. They spared no expense on all the tile work. The only negative thing is we showed up about 20 minutes early and there was a truck in the driveway. I went in and looked around and finally found 2 women out by the pool. I stuck my head out the back door and said hello. The lady looked at me and said "management ". I said "excuse me". Then she said we're management and check in is not until 4. I was like how rude but i didn't say anything i just left. We had kids that needed to pee and my grandbabies needed their diapers changed so we drove down to the gas station. Every VRBO Ive ever stayed in you could arrive 30 minutes to an hour early no problem. Id understand if she was housekeeping and got behind washing clothes, but she was outside messing with a water house lol. Other than her being rude it was s good experience.

Amazing property!

We rented home for a small family reunion for my mom’s 90th birthday. This home will not disappoint! Close to beach, close to Blvd, 2 downstairs bedrooms, no steep staircase, 2 upstairs bedrooms, large kitchen and dining area, large living room and a mini kitchen with fridge downstairs. Bathrooms are very spacious. Home extremely clean. Kitchen is well stocked with cooking utensils, pots/pans, dishes, etc. Love this home. Another plus…great owners. Very helpful and very easy to communicate with.

Perfect Getaway

This property was perfect for the second time! These hosts have thought of literally everything you could imagine to make your stay enjoyable and easy!! We were able to travel lighter knowing they had so many things we needed for the beach and home on site already. All of the little details from the cute matching decor in each room that is themed to the tiny things like having a cooler to use on the beach…they’ve thought of it all!! Well worth the price! Beautiful location! The beach access down the street is awesome! We definitely plan to stay here any time we come to the island in the future! Thank you for providing such a wonderful vacation experience!! Oh, and if you love Tetris as much as I do, don’t plan to get any sleep, the arcade is addicting!!! 😊

Longhorn Family Vacation

This house was amazing. All that was described in the home, was accurate. Our family had no complaints. We were in awe in we first walked in. It was not only because of the decor but also the beautiful backsplash around the home, kitchen and bathrooms. There was plenty of room for everyone in our family that came into town to enjoy their vacation. The owners thought of everything when they put this vacation home together; for families of all ages, even fur-babies were taken into account. The backyard and pool is just the perfect size. Plenty of seating for everyone. Love that they have plenty of beach towels. Our family loved the ice machine (for us that was a bonus). As we love to use a lot of ice in our drinks. Our family did not go the beach because we enjoyed the pool. It is nice to know that the owners have plenty of beach gear in their home for your use and you do not have to pack those items from home. We will definitely use this home again when we head back to SPI. A friend of mine already asked for information on this home.

Great Stay!

Great stay…super host and on island management…very responsive to questions throughout stay. Plenty of space and very clean. The downstairs game room and access to pool were terrific. Our granddaughter could not get enough of the pool! Awesome shading in afternoon around pool made it a great place to hangout and enjoy the evenings. Ice machine downstairs was a great bonus! Loved the huge dining table, plenty of space for the seven adults, 5 year old and 6 month old to enjoy meals together. Kitchen could have used some pantry space for grocery items, but was well stocked with everything needed to cook and prep meals. Parking was a little tight for our four vehicles, but we made it work. Overall a great house/location. Will definitely consider for future trips to SPI!
