The property was exactly as advertised, it was clean and decorated nicely. The kitchen was fully equipped and there were plenty of towels and sheets. Laura and Jibber were fantastic hosts. The location is perfect!! Would highly recommend. Mary and Terry Jan-March 2025
Our second visit to this home was as enjoyable as the first. The owners take great care of their property. Thank you, Jibber and Laura, for a comfortable and peaceful stay!
Super cute older model home over the garage/start/laundry. Plenty of space for parking 3 vehicles. All the dishes were there. Coffee pot and microwave. Wrap around porch on the 2nd floor to enjoy the view. It’s on the bay side closer to the bars like tequila sunset. Owners checked in on us to make sure everything was ok. The only issue was the twin bed pics are posted twice. So 2 of the crew had to sleep on the sofa bed. They only stayed one night. So maybe take an air mattress for the last 2 guests?? Super nice folks. .

My second visit to Jibberville, and it was perfect! The house has everything you need for a comfortable, relaxing spot to rest after a day of hanging out on SPI and Port Isabel! Sunrise walks on the beach and coffee on deck were part of the morning routine! The weather was amazing and we so enjoyed the sea breeze as we read our books before heading out for the day. Our mission had been to experience a sea turtle release, though we did not get the call so instead we enjoyed the residents and patients at Sea Turtle, Inc. and enjoyed hanging out with local artists at the Art Incubator. I will be back next summer for sure! Thank you for another perfect beach vacation!
This property was amazing! Very clean, supplied with everything you need for your stay, as well as all the supplies you need for a day at the beach! Jibber was super awesome and accommodating!! I would absolutely stay there again!!! Highly recommended!
We had another great week in South Padre at Jibber’s house.!
This house has everything you could need for a comfortable family vacation.
The beds are comfy and we love watching the fireworks from deck on Tues and Friday’s. Looking forward to another trip already!
Our stay was fantastic, the home was very clean and stocked with everything we needed. Plenty of room for our guest and great parking. The location on SPI was the absolute best. Jibber, the owner/host was a superb host. He answered text immediately and addressed any questions we had even faster and was very accommodating. Definitely will be back next year!
Loved the bamboo theme and beautiful stained glass! Jibber was so friendly and made sure we were enjoying ourselves. The beds were comfy, but the showers were amazing, super water pressure!! Close proximity to everything! The only downfall was the sewer construction that had the road tore up. Overall we would definitely book again!!
Our stay at Jibberville was fantastic! The house has all the comforts of home and the perfect location to all the fun! We started each morning with coffee on the deck facing stunning Laguna Bay or a quick walk over to the beach just before sunrise. We enjoyed the island attractions including The Original Dolphin Watch and EcoTour, SPI Birding and Nature Center, Sea Turtle, Inc., and the Port Isabel Lighthouse. We loved hanging out with local artists at the Art Studio on the main drag. We walked to the Entertainment District for music and loved Laguna Bob’s! They really do have the “best ceviche on the planet!” But… the absolute best part of the trip was hanging out at Jibberville. So relaxing! The absolutely best sunsets at the end of the road and we so enjoyed the fireworks from both the deck and the end of the road! Jibber and Laura were the perfect hosts and loved that we had them so close to help us and answer questions! He even has all the water fun you can rent or take lessons right there on property! I will definitely recommend this house to all my friends heading to SPI in the future!
Love staying at this house. It is centrally located, easy walking distance to lots of restaurants and things to do Can launch kayaks into the lagoon just half a block away. About 5 blocks away to the public beach. Or straight down the main road to the bigger area of the beach. The owners were great to talk to, great with communication I would have to say, “ A must stay.”
The house has a great quiet location with everything you would need. Paul is a wonderfully attentive host. It is a spacious house with a large deck with a limited view of the laguna. It is in easy walking distance to the grocery store and many restaurants.
Very clean place, great location. Very good communication with Paul. Could use some updates, furniture is not the best to relax on. Had a few bumps in the road with our stay, but Paul did his best to help get thru it.
Thanks Paul!
We only have good things to say about our 6 week stay here. Jibber and Laura take great care of their property and their guests. The house was clean and comfortable and the outside landscaping was beautiful....we loved the tropical flowers and plants.
Thanks for making us feel at home. We would definitely stay again.
We had a great stay at Paul’s property! I’d say that the accommodations are best fitting for a group of four, but the six of us that came had a great time and loved the place. Jibber was very communicative and kind, overall it was fantastic!
The property was nice n clean. The owner came over to give us a rundown and give us keys when we got there. Had mostly everything we needed for living the good life. Pretty calm and quiet unless you like to sleep in there may be someone mowing close by, bring ear plugs. May need to bring first aide kit if you think you might need it. Grocery store close by so that is very helpful. Internet wi-fi went out a couple times but came back quickly. Owner kept in contact with us to let us know about boil water notice from the city. Tons of towels, blankets, pillows, patio space and AC. Will definitely go back
