About this property

Stunning Beach Front Ground Floor 3/2 Condo. A Few Steps To The Beach!

Just 22 steps to the beach, this beautifully decorated Sea Vista condominium is consistently ranked by VRBO’s Ranking Metrics as among the island’s Top 10% most desirable units. You'll find all the amenities including ample space for 8 guests featuring a living/dining area, fully appointed kitchen with walk-in pantry, master bedroom and bath at beach level and two quiet bedrooms sharing a full travertine bath. The master bedroom and living areas feature a walk-out porch with Adirondack chairs for some beach side relaxation. This unit is particularly unique because of its ground floor proximity to the board walk leading to the beach and its floor-to-ceiling windows which present you a constant and magnificent view of the dunes and beach shore line. At sunrise you’ll surely enjoy dune flowers as they emerge with each sunrise. The unit is fully digital with wireless internet and 3 internet enabled digital entertainment centers. A laundry room has a large load washer/dryer and beach toys are available in the owner's storage unit. Fabulous beds and linens will ensure you enjoy the most restful sleep possible. A quiet and beautiful pool and tennis courts are available for you use -- just steps away from your unit. Sea Vista is the southern most property on the island next to a protected marine preserve yet close to the best restaurants on the southern harbor. Fishing, dolphin and bird watching is within walking distance. There is a maximum occupancy of 8 persons with 2 automobiles allowed. SPI STR Permit 2024-0015.

Spring Break Family Getaway
We loved this Sea Vista Condo. The location is ideal as it’s right by the boardwalk to the beach. The condo was clean and very comfortable. Our children had plenty of room as did we. Spring break was quiet in this location - it was great.

Family vaca
Overall, great property and great location. The condo is “older”, but well maintained. It was a little dirty when we go there, some food still on utensils, but nothing a broom/vacuum could fix. The owners were great. A few problems occurred, but they fixed them as soon as I brought it to their attention. The pool is heated and very nice. Also met some friendly snow birds there who gave us spots to hit up.

Great location! Responsive owners :-)
Stayed 4 days in December 2024 right before the holidays. Great location, very comfortable, has everything you need. We loved being on the ground floor, right next to the path to the beach. Some trouble getting on the Wi-Fi at the beginning, needed to be reset. Owners extremely responsive and friendly.

Perfect location on the island
We really enjoyed the time there. The location is unbeatable. We loved the heated pool as well. The only thing I wish could be fixed is the back door lock. It does not lock from the outside so if the whole family wants to go to the beach you would either need to leave the back door unlocked or leave from the side door of the building. Not a huge deal though. The view on the first floor is partially blocked by the dunes but the back door / yard gives kids super quick access to the beach.

We wanted a quick weekend stay at the island with our kids before the start of the school year and this was the perfect trip. The condo is well stocked and very clean. The location is excellent and access to the beach is amazing! Just out the patio door, and within a minute you’re on the sand. Ed and Betty were excellent hosts!

Came here for spring break with my group of family and friends and we all had a great time. Loved how clean and close to the beach the property was. Ed the host was very helpful and always made sure they responded whenever I had any questions. We all loved it here and plan on coming back to South Padre soon because of how easy our stay was.

About the host

Hosted by Ed and Betty DeShields

Host profile image
Ed and Betty DeShields and their daughter Bess have been visiting South Padre Island for many years. We live in Dallas, Texas but love the island for all the memories it has made in our family.

Why they chose this property

We've stayed in many properties throughout the years but Sea Vista is simply one of the finest properties on the island. Sea Vista is owned by private owners so your stay is usually quiet and free from the masses that do not crowd our private beach. Management is attentive to your every need and all you have to do is ask if you need something.

What makes this property unique

22 steps to the beach and directly on the ground floor. No elevators, corridors or lengthy walks will keep you from the beach. You will literally walk onto your lawn and patio directly from the beach. Gorgeously decorated and fully appointed with a full kitchen and bedding that ensure you will have a restful stay. Sea Vista is closest to the action, yet super-quiet without the crowds. Schlitterbaun water park is within walking distance as is two private tennis courts and pools. Maximum occupancy 8 persons, 2 automobiles.
