Bougainvillea Beach House

Welcome to your slice of paradise on Gulf Boulevard! This charming Key West style vacation home boasts 2 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and one of the most expansive beach view balconies on the entire island. Prepare to be captivated by stunning Gulf vistas from every room (except the bathrooms), ensuring you're always surrounded by the serene beauty of the sea.

Convenience is key here, with the beach and beach access mere steps away across the street. Explore the island effortlessly by walking or hopping on the FREE Island shuttle, which conveniently stops right in front of the house every 30 minutes, whisking you away to local restaurants and the island grocery store.

Perched upstairs, this vacation rental comprises two distinct units, each offering its own private balcony. The North unit, affectionately dubbed the 'jewel' of the house, boasts luxurious touches throughout. From Travertine floors to granite countertops, tumbled marble baths, and commercial-grade stainless steel kitchen appliances, every detail exudes elegance and comfort, beckoning you to make this your annual vacation destination.

Love to barbecue? A spacious charcoal grill awaits on the balcony, allowing you to savor the view while you cook up a feast. After a day of beachcombing, unwind on the porch swing, rocking chairs, or wooden beach chairs, immersing yourself in the soothing coastal ambiance.

We've thought of everything to enhance your beach experience, providing beach chairs, umbrellas, sand toys, towels, boogie boards, and more, ensuring you have everything you need for endless fun in the sun.

For the avid angler, we've got you covered with exclusive discounts for private bay fishing excursions in the Laguna Madre. Cast your line and reel in the catch of the day, creating memories that will last a lifetime in this idyllic coastal haven. .

South Padre Stay
We loved our stay at the Bougainvillea Beach House! The layout was great for the four of us and our dog and we loved having three bathrooms. The unit was nicely equipped and came stocked with beach chairs, coolers, wagons, etc. The owners were very welcoming and communicated well. We would definitely stay here again if ever in the area.

We had a great stay in Padre Island thanks to this perfect home!! Very clean, well equipped, comfortable rental with beach access directly across the street. This home is convenient to many restaurants, and there’s a grocery store 2 blocks away. Lynn was very nice, and answered all questions promptly. We will definitely stay here again!

We had the most excellent vacation, the owners are super friendly and helpful, the proximity to the beach can’t be beat, and if you like cooking then you are in for a treat. The kitchen is well equipped with a 6 burner gas stove, great cookware, and sharp knives. Would highly recommend this location and will be booking for future trips. Thanks again.

Doesn't Get any Better
Just the perfect spot and accommodations were wonderful. Easy access to the beach with umbrella, chairs and other beach stuff we needed provided by the hosts. Wrap around porch was nice for sitting outside with a margarita. Enjoyed our time here tremendously. Wouldn't stay anyplace else. Lynn, I would add Viva to your list of restaurants. Really nice open air, sunset dining on the bay. Casual spot and the menu is awesome. Something for everyone.

Awesome property, great host
This is a great dog-friendly property; we really enjoyed our stay. The property is clean, comfortable, nicely equipped and the host is super helpful. Our friends stayed in the South unit, which is a little smaller. I was happy that we paid more and had the larger North unit. Renting both units is a great arrangement for 2 small-ish families, though. We will stay again when we return to SPI.

Padre retreat
The property was very nice. It had everything we needed and more. We stayed in and watched the KC Chiefs win the AFC championship on the 75 inch TV! The walk to the beach was very short and the path very well cared for. I loved sitting on the porch, it was not directly on the beach, but had a view of the water and was very comfortable and inviting. The owners were great! Friendly and very helpful in giving us information about the island and things to do.
