1 Bedroom Apartment in Port Isabel

Welcome to Alta Vista – A Restored 1931 Spanish Colonial Retreat in Historic Port Isabel
Step back in time at Alta Vista, a beautifully restored 1931 Spanish Colonial-style property located just minutes from South Padre Island. With its arched entryways, stucco walls, original oak floors, and vibrant Talavera tile accents from Central Mexico, this historic gem offers a one-of-a-kind vacation experience filled with warmth, character, and comfort.
Originally built with timber, masonry, and handcrafted stucco, Alta Vista reflects the architecture of Old Mexico. Our family purchased the property in 2003 and began a full, authentic restoration—preserving the historic details while updating the space with modern amenities.
This ground floor apartment features:
2 full size beds in the main room
A fully equipped kitchen
Freshly laundered bedding and essentials
Enjoy high-speed Wi-Fi, spectrum TV, central A/C, and on-demand hot water for your convenience.
Step outside into our lush tropical courtyard complete with:
A sparkling swimming pool
Lounge chairs and shaded umbrellas
An outdoor kitchen with a churrascaria-style wood-burning BBQ, gas grill, and bar
A breezeway with rocking chairs perfect for your morning coffee or evening wind-down
Our on-site laundry room with two washers and two dryers makes extended stays a breeze.
We’re located just a few blocks from Port Isabel’s Lighthouse Square, local shops, and waterfront dining—and only minutes from the South Padre Island bridge. As lifelong locals, we’re happy to share tips on restaurants, fishing spots, cultural sites, and things to do throughout Port Isabel, SPI, and the Rio Grande Valley.
Come stay at Alta Vista—where history meets hospitality on the Texas coast.
