We really, really enjoyed our stay. Hosts were friendly and communicative. The location was excellent, very convenient to the beach and restaurants. The kitchen was well stocked with high quality appliances and utensils. The porch was a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the view of the ocean. Adults, teens and the dog all had a wonderful time.
This was our family’s second year to stay.
Lynn does a wonderful job keeping a beautiful property with quality amenities like the comfortable beds, living room, kitchen, porch, and beach accessories.
Our stay was amazing. We had a clear view of the ocean right in front of the house, the weather was perfect, and we were provided with everything we could need for a perfect beach day. All of the fun bayside bar and restaurants are walking distance from this spot. Lynn goes above and beyond to make guests comfortable.🪼

Perfect beach location. Beautiful grounds. This property is close to everything. Pet friendly too. They even provide doggie shampoo for after the beach!
This was literally 5 stars, all the way. From the comfort of the beds to the beautiful decor, everything you need they provide, literally only bring your clothes. The cleanliness, location, just absolute best place to stay hands down. This will be our new vacation spot 100 percent.
We were in South Padre during a cold and rainy few days. The home had plenty of things to do, including premium TV apps for nearly every service. We loved this place.
We greatly enjoyed our stay. We were looking for a place to vacation with our pet. And this was perfect. Lynn and Captain Kevin were great host. We would definitely book here again!
Bougainvillea House was exactly as advertised and more. Lynn was a lovely host, and we had access to chairs, carts, boogie boards and sand play things, which was so convenient. The unit itself was super clean, comfy beds, fluffy towels, new appliances, loved having a w/d in the unit. Beach access was simply crossing the street and then straight through the dunes to the water. We enjoyed our stay!
This was our third stay. It feels like home away from home. This time it rained a couple of days during our stay. It’s so nice having a porch to enjoy the rainy weather and games to play. One of the days the wind was too strong to go to the beach, but the porch was a perfect place to enjoy the breeze. Lynn is fantastic host as usual.
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!
Lynn thought of everything to make our stay cozy and comfortable. Super clean! The kitchen and bathrooms are amazing, with higher end soaps and hair products. Plush towels, plenty of fresh pillows and blankets. Amazing stove/oven/fridge if you like to make your own meals. Really nice TV with a bunch of popular apps and great movie selection. The porch is perfect for chilling and a lot bigger than the photos let on. Over all a 10! We will be staying here again. Thank you Lynn and Kevin.
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.
From the FULLY stocked kitchen, to the bag of ice, HUGE porch, beautiful sunrises right from the porch, 3/4 ocean view, super comfy bed, and name brand amenities, this property is sublime. Very clean and well maintained. Lynn and Kevin are super nice and informative. And it’s very dog friendly too! Loved it, we will be back.
This is our second time staying on property and had a wonderful time. The place is in a great location and very roomy for a family. The owner is super friendly and always very helpful. It’s very accommodating provide if beach toys, chairs, boogie boards, and a wagon. Makes it nice to be able to travel light. Highly recommend.
Very nice place to stay. Hope to stay here again in the future. Lynn was very nice and helpful with any questions and the Captain was full of information about fishing. Overall a great place to go to get away. Loved it!
Thank you Lynn
This property fit my families needs very well. Spacious property with a large balcony. The owners are very nice and helpful. They even have beach items ready to use. We will definitely return.
Lynn was an excellent host. The property completely met our needs and she was very responsive to our needs. The needs were very comfortable and the TV was amazing.
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.
We have stayed at dozens of VRBO’s around the world. What a fantastic stay. It couldn’t be located any better. Situated directly across the street from South Padre Island’s pristine Beach. Lovely view of the water from the front porch. Most rentals are blocked by the high-rise condos on the beach side of Gulf Blvd. This one is not The deck has comfortable seating and a porch swing.The house is wonderfully appointed, has a terrific kitchen and extremely comfortable beds. The host provided all of the equipment you could need for a lovely day at the beach. The hosts, Lynn and Captain Kevin are a great host. Very willing to provide helpful information One small item is the second and third bathrooms only have pedestal sinks and zero counter space but the master bathroom is luxuriously large. I highly recommend it. Would definitely stay again.
