While you are here

Your host — available but not in your way

Hey there! 👋

We believe in being the kind of host YOU want us to be:

• Need recommendations? We LOVE sharing our favorite local spots and hidden gems. Just ask — we're a wealth of local knowledge! 🗺️

• Want privacy? We totally get it. You won't see us unless you want to. The self check-in means you can enjoy your entire stay without ever meeting us face-to-face — and that's perfectly fine!

• How to Reach Us:

We monitor messages closely and typically respond within 30 minutes to 1 hour during the day ⚡

• Phone/Text — For urgent matters, our number is provided in your check-in instructions. If the AC goes out at midnight or you can't get in the door — call us. We'll pick up. 🫡

What We Love to Help With:

• 🏖️ Beach tips — Padre Island, Port Aransas
• 🎣 Fishing recommendations
• 🍽️ Coastal dining picks

Don't hesitate to message us with questions before you book! We'd rather answer 10 questions and have you arrive confident than have you guessing. 🙌

We put a lot of heart into this home and we genuinely want you to have an amazing stay. 💛
