Close to Mexico and connected via a bridge to Texas, South Padre Island is a popular vacation and spring break destination. The beaches and restaurants are within walking distance from most rentals, otherwise, you can easily hop on the free Island Metro to get around. Definitely go fishing and dolphin watching while you’re here, but if you are in the mood for some thrill, make time to visit Island Adventure Park for ziplining, parasailing, and much more.
South Padre Island is a great place to spend the summer holidays by the beach or to escape the harsh winter months. But, whatever brings you to this paradise off the southern coast of Texas, you will have a hard time saying goodbye. Keep reading for the best monthly rentals in South Padre Island, Texas, and you will not be able to resist booking.
