Texas Gulf Coast Vacation Rentals

Texas Gulf Coast condo rentals and vacation rentals make a great home away from home along the state's 600 miles of coastline.

Visitors who stay in a South Padre Island condo can enjoy a five-mile-long stretch of powdery beach and numerous beach activities. Other highlights for guests of South Padre Island vacation rentals include Schlitterbahn Beach Water Park, bird watching, golf, tennis, horseback riding, and the Port Isabel Lighthouse. Nearby attractions include the Gladys Porter Zoo in Brownsville and shopping in Matamoros, Mexico.

Located on the Texas Gulf Coast, about halfway between Houston and the Mexico border, Corpus Christi is the perfect spot for a tropical getaway. Corpus Christi accommodations range from waterfront houses to high-rise condo rentals, and most Corpus Christi vacation rentals are located on or near the bay, making it easy to enjoy all that Corpus Christi has to offer.

Vacationers who rent a Corpus Christi condo can enjoy great surf, fantastic fishing, bird watching, beach combing, sailing, cycling, golf and more. The wind conditions in Corpus Christi make surfing and windsurfing popular sports -- check out the J.P. Luby Surf Park on Mustang Island. Other attractions for guests of Corpus Christi vacation rentals include the Padre Island National Seashore, the Texas State Aquarium and the USS Lexington.

Situated about 30 minutes north of Corpus Christi, the seaside villages of Port Aransas Rockport, and Fulton offer a multitude of opportunities for bird watching, fishing, boating, shopping, and other coastal pleasures.

The fishing village of Port Aransas (known locally as Port A) is on Mustang Island, accessed by a 24-hour ferry from Aransas Pass or by a causeway from Corpus Christi. Guests of Port Aransas vacation rentals can stroll along the wide, sandy beach and listen to the waves break -- it's just another day in paradise!

Rockport and its sister town, Fulton, are a few miles north of Port Aransas, on a peninsula between Copano Bay and Aransas Bay. Guests of Fulton and Rockport vacation rentals and condos will find great fishing here, and some of the best bird watching in the country.

Just south of Houston, guests of Galveston beach house rentals can enjoy the beach and the lovely Victorian historical district. Other attractions for guests of Galveston TX vacation rentals include Moody Gardens, the Bishop's Palace mansion, Sea-Arama Marineworld, and the Elissa tall ship.
