About this property

Spectacular Waterfront Sunsets, 2 balconies, 1300 sq. ft. of fun, night fishing

The 302 has everything you need for an enjoyable beach vacation home in our 1300 square foot, two bedroom, two bath unit and fold out couch in the living room. It's not just about the sunsets that can be viewed from the living room, master bedroom, and two balconies; well, maybe it is. Yet, The 302 is more than that. It's the ease of cooking with all the amenities of a modern, well equipped kitchen. It's the convenience of having a washer and dryer inside the unit. It's our pool, hot tub, and wonderful fishing on our pier with night time lighting. Book early, so you don't miss out on the fun! We book up to one year in advance. SPI tax permit number 2023-0005.

Lovely place!

Cheryl and Larry were absolutely wonderful hosts! Despite being out of the country they were still very responsive to a couple of small issues we had (maid hadn't taken care of a couple of small things and there weren't any blinds in the master bedroom). They were kind enough to even let us have an early check in and a late check out! Condo was beautiful and had a gorgeous bay view in a quieter part of the Island. The fishing dock was so much fun at night and the condo itself was incredibly large and had a full sized washer/dryer. We would definitely stay again!

Annual SPI family get together

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay. The condo was clean, bright, open and very accomodating. The view was incredible. It was really nice to have the lighted fishing pier (even though the fish were not very cooperative) and the bay-side location provided easy beach access as well.. We would definitely stay here again!

Excellent stay

Absolutely loved our stay here! The condo was beautiful and had everything we needed plus more. The owners were extremely helpful and responsive even when our plans unexpectedly changed. Even the beach (and one of the best beach bars) was just a short walk away. Would definitely stay here again!

Relaxing Location

Owners were very helpful and nice. They were quickly able to rectify a not so good experience upon arriving at the condo. Cleaning crew did not show to clean or change out linen from last tenants. They were able get someone to come and clean that night. Besides that we had a very relaxing and fun time. Beautiful sunset in the evening made it all worthwhile.

Owner was so helpful with keeping up with Covid closures

My family had a fantastic time at this property. Kitchen had lots to offer. Toaster oven, blender, coffee maker, toaster, electric can opener, mixer just to name a few. View was fabulous! We decided to drive to the beach instead of walk. We found parking with no problem. There are plenty of beach access points. The owner kept us informed about all the closures they were and weren't doing due to covid. It was very nice and they answered any question I had and answered very fast. It is definitely a place my family will want to return to.

Clean, spacious, gorgeous views - exceeded our expectations!

We were pleasantly surprised at how large this condo was! It was spacious and even had an in-condo washer/dryer which was perfect with our trips to the beach. My 4-year old twin boys kept saying, "we love our new home!" . The owners were very responsive and friendly. We will MOST definitely be back!

Best vacation place we’ve stayed at.

My family and I really enjoyed our stay at the Galleon Bay and are looking forward to staying there again. We witnessed one of the most beautiful sunsets we have seen...ever. Everything was very close by (restaurants, stores, theater, etc.). I really enjoyed fishing from the dock. It allowed me to wake up early in the morning and just walk out and get to fishing without having to go really far or leave my family. The place was very clean and had pretty much everything needed for a comfortable stay. My wife fell in love with the place the moment she walked thru the door and my kids were super excited. We will definitely be going back! Thanks Larry and God Bless.

Why they chose this property

Our family has been traveling to South Padre Island for over 30 years. When I retired, my husband and I decided to make it our permanent winter home.

What makes this property unique

We chose this property because of the waterfront views of the Laguna Madre Bay just feet away; the night fishing dock and pier; and the spacious 1300 square foot size of the condo.
