Summary:
Beautifully renovated two-level beachfront villa with two bedrooms on the main floor and a king-bedroom suite in the loft. You’ll also have 3 balconies to enjoy stellar ocean views! Housed in Solare-Bahia Mar, an exclusive and gated beachfront resort with 24/7 security, fabulous amenities like pools, jacuzzis, beach access and sun deck, tennis, pickleball, a kids’ playground, and more. Plenty of fun for the entire family. Let the ocean breeze relax you and whisk you away to vacation mode!

The Space:
Welcome to our third-floor, two-level beachfront villa with amazing ocean views, stylish and comfortable furnishings, and fabulous amenities onsite at Solare-Bahia Mar for the whole family.

As you enter, you’ll be greeted by a chic, open-plan concept with a direct ocean view. Our beach getaway space features a sleek and fully equipped kitchen with quality stainless steel appliances and extras like a coffee maker, blender, toaster, and dishwasher! There’s a convenient breakfast bar with three bar stools for a quick snack, coffee, or to work on your laptop if needed.

When you want a more relaxing sit-down meal, there’s the dining area, where you’ll find a table for six with an ocean view! The living room area features a plush sofa facing a flatscreen Smart TV with cable for those moments at home with your favorite shows or a movie together after a fun day of seaside adventure.

When it’s time to rest and retire for the night, there are three bedrooms, all with Smart TVs and cable! The 2 bedrooms on the main floor both include two queen-sized beds and full ensuite bathrooms. Upstairs in the loft you’ll find the lovely master bedroom, which has its own private sea view balcony with seating. Nothing like waking up and falling asleep to the sound of the waves and an ocean breeze!

Additional highlights include WiFi for streaming TV services or working on your laptop, a washer and dryer and ironing equipment, linens, towels, beach towels, shampoo, hairdryers, and 2 car parking spaces onsite.

The beach and ocean are only seconds away from you. Get ready to splash in the sea or the two large pristine pools onsite, each with a hot tub! Bahia Mar has so much to offer like a wonderfully large beachfront deck where you can read a good book or simply gaze and relax to the sound of the waves, enjoy easy access to the beach, or the outdoor grill area for delicious barbecues. Like playing tennis? Pack your rackets and enjoy a match on one of our two courts.

Absolute wonderful time!

I took my daughter on her senior spring break to South Padre with a friend of mine and my daughters boyfriend and man did we have an amazing time. The condo was very roomy and set up wonderfully especially since we all had our own bathroom. There were plenty of dishes and cooking pots and pans for us. We stayed for 7 days and always found things to do. The pool and hot tub were amazing. Just steps away from the beach which was also nice. There was a lot of construction going on while we were there but the workers were very respectful and extremely nice. Only downfall was no elevator but that wasn't a deal breaker for us. This specific condo is just steps away from the pool. You do want to make sure you bring extra toilet paper because they don't leave you much. Plenty of bath towels, they also had a bunch of beach towels for you to use. Wish we would have had a lock code instead of having to lug around a key with us the entire time. Also wish there were some throw blankets for those chili nights. All in all it was a great time and the host was very responsive to my messages. Until next time South Padre!

Beach Front Experience

Great property, clean and matches listing well. Only things we wished were if it were better stocked. We only had one garbage bag for the kitchen with some small bathroom garbages, and with a family of 5 in a 3 bedroom condo for a week, it would seem normal to need more than one garbage bag. There was also not enough plates and bowls so we had to do the dishes more often than we would’ve liked, but the rest of the kitchen was fully stocked and everything you need to cook any meals you don’t eat out while you stay.
