Wake up each morning to white sand, pristine dunes, and warm Gulf waves when you escape to this two-bedroom South Padre Island vacation rental, a well-appointed beachfront condo with a shared outdoor swimming pool and garden. With space for six guests and up to two dogs, you can bring the whole family!

Ideally located in the charming La Playa condo complex of 20 beachfront units, this bright and comfortable home is mere steps from the Gulf of Mexico. It's also an easy walk or a free shuttle ride to local restaurants, shopping, bars and nightclubs, and recreational outfitters.

Whether you're a surfer, a sunbather, or a kiteboarder-in-training, this quaint condo is a wonderful destination for small families in search of sun, sand, and serene relaxation.

With central air conditioning and an abundance of natural light that pours in from the balcony, the interior living space is casual and inviting. Take an afternoon nap in the warmth of the sunshine, browse the wireless Internet, or catch your favorite show on the flatscreen cable TV.

The full kitchen is stocked with plenty of culinary tools, and even features a dishwasher to take care of the chores. Pull up a seat to the bar counter to help with the cooking, or relax with a newspaper and a cup of coffee at the small indoor dining table for two.

But as the sun comes up each morning, step outside on the private balcony to gaze east across the Gulf of Mexico. Enjoy an al fresco breakfast at the patio table for four, or watch the kids play on the grassy lawn below.

Thanks to the island's year-round warm weather, it's never a bad day to borrow a boogie board from the HOA and spend the day splashing in the turquoise Gulf waves. And you'll return home to find a beautifully landscaped terrace, a refreshing outdoor pool, and a communal picnic area with a charcoal grill.

With two bedrooms and one full bathroom, this La Playa condo can sleep up to six guests. The master bedroom features a king-size bed, while the guest room has two twin beds and a small TV, plus two air mattresses for the kids. You're also welcome to bring up to two dogs with you, but please note a 30-pound limit and a small, nightly pet fee.

As one of the most popular beach destinations in all of Texas, South Padre Island is known for its family-friendly recreational activities. Spend the day on an eco-tour, gazing at the local dolphins, or charter a fishing boat to search for plentiful red snapper, grouper, and kingfish.

You'll also be just two miles north of Schlitterbahn Beach Waterpark, where you'll find 13 indoor and outdoor waterslides on 25 acres of beachfront property.

The sun and surf are calling your name - reserve your Texas vacation rental today!
