Southern Destination is a private home on the resort on South Padre Island that has been transformed into a relaxing vacation rental, including a heated pool, recently redecorated.

South Padre Island is a beach destination located at the tip of the Texas coast, just north of Brownsville, Texas and is bordered on the east side by the Gulf of Mexico and on the west side by the Laguna Madre. The island is only accessible by causeway or boat.

Southern Destination is just a couple minute walk, about 120 yds. down Constellation Drive to Aquarius Circle Beach Access #18.

The third bedroom has two sets of queen beds that will accommodate four more guests. The loft bedroom has a queen sleeper sofa for two more the sleep with an inflatable comfort mattress. A queen size sleeper sofa in this large open living room can accommodate two guests each. These are the best sofa sleepers that you will ever find to sleep upon. Each fitted with a normal thickness coil spring sofa mattress but what makes these different, the mattress has an adjustable air bed on top. Two additional rollaway beds will be located in the downstairs enrty closet. All sixteen guests will have easy access to covered patio and pool area in a beautifully landscaped backyard. You may bring your personal beach towels for the pool and beach but we have extra if needed. Bath towels provided by Southern Destination cannot be used at the beach.

A fenced in backyard provides privacy for your family as they relax by the lagoon bottom pool. There are two outdoor showers on each side of the house.

Southern Destination provides all bed linens and bath towels. Beds are adorned with colorful comforters, quilts, and blankets.

The kitchen is complete with granite counters as well as all of the stainless steel appliances, equipment, and cooking amenities/utensils needed to prepare that special island meal for your family and friends.

Southern Destination is a non-smoking facility. We will consider allowing up to two pets with prior approval. An additional cleaning fee does apply. Two driveways provide enough space in front of the house to accommodate up to five cars.

Your guests and family will also enjoy visiting well-known attractions such as The Birding Center, Turtle Rescue Center, Horseback Riding and Petting Center, and Museums. Shopping, restaurants with a variety of cuisines, and beachfront clubs and bars located throughout the island on our three major boulevards: Padre Island Blvd., Gulf Blvd., and Laguna Blvd. Another popular attraction is an eight-mile ride North to the end of the of Hwy 100. There you will find beautiful sand dunes and a natural beach setting that is admired by travelers from all over the world. Two drive-on beach accesses allow you to drive north on the beach for over 20 miles.

Great Beach home steps away from ocean, and close to many beach stores, groceries, and restaurants. Large home with plenty of room for large family. Backyard and pool were great, and the kettle grills worked out great for cookout. Beds were all comfortable, and entire house was very clean. Hosts were quick to answer any questions, would highly recommend this property!

Perfect Beach House

We had a great stay at the Southern Destination property! Plenty of room for my family and great location - just a short walk to the beach! Had a slight issue with the WiFi, but it was addressed immediately by the property manager(s). Communication with property manager was an A. Highly recommend this property if you are looking for a family vacation to SPI!

The home was clean and spacious with a good number of beds. The pool is lovely and there are great beach items (chairs and such). It is very close to beach access. The downsides were the extremely long list of rules that were sent a week before we arrived including that, though dogs are allowed in the home, they are not allowed in the pool. Additionally, there were only two kitchen trash bags and one roll of paper towels for our stay; minimal kitchen items other than dishes (not even salt); and the dishwasher doesn't work well so we had to wash everything by hand. The owners were responsive.

We reserved this home, along with the other property one house down for our Family Retreat, and it was perfect!!! This location has plenty of space, the kitchen is nice and open for cooking and to enjoy family meals in dinning table and bar. The sleeping rooms upstairs are so comfortable with full bathrooms for plenty of room to accommodate all size parties. There are balcony views on both side of the home to sit and relax at night or mornings while taking in the sea breeze. We loved that everything is provided and there are even large washer/dryer machines to take care of any needs before you head out. The home also has a game room that is fun for lounging with plenty of TVs throughout the house. The pool is so peaceful with shade to enjoy all day long, and nice seating outside with BBQ grille to use. We loved the modern look and everything about the property, we plan to come back!
