Had a wonderful weekend- the location is ideal, across the street from the grocery store and short walk to the beach. Located on dead end street next to the bay. Wonderful communication with owners and easy checkin process
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!
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!
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!
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 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!
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!
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. .
This home was perfect for 5. Felt like all of us had our own space and we were close to everything. An arcade, pier, shops, restaurant, and gravity park.
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.
Perfect place to stay, especially now during COVID! The place has a washer and drier for you to wash sheets if you would like to and you don’t have to worry about bumping into people passing by while staying at a hotel. It was very clean and a great location on the bayside, with just a walk away for any fisherman leaving boats at Jim’s Pier.
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.”
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.
Picture can don’t show how nice this property is. It truly felt like home away from home. Had everything my family I needed for our stay. Truly walking distance for food, beach, groceries and shopping. House was so clean and taken care of.
