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.

Summary: We really enjoyed our stay at the Alta Vista apartments. The charming decor harkens back to old Mexico. Great color choices. The apartment was well appointed and very comfortable. It might benefit from a brighter bedside lamp or by adding another lamp but that's a minor detail. The pool area was very clean and adorned with beautiful potted plants. The apartments were also very quiet, making for a thoroughly relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Summary: Everything about the property was great! The courtyard area was lovely. The pool was warm. We loved our room! So nicely redone! Bed and pillows were very comfy. Beach towels were waiting for us, and plenty of bath towels. The only thing missing was handsoap and a small bar of soap for the shower. It wasn't a big deal or I would've asked or maybe I missed that it wasn't included. Just plan your trips to /from the island and don't forget anything - weekend traffic was crazy getting on /off the island!!!

Summary: Our hosts Courtney and Ike were wonderful hosts. They were always available should you have any questions or need anything. Very cozy, friendly feel at Alta Vista. Our unit was clean and all the essentials were supplied. Loved the location. We were able to enjoy our morning walks around the area. If one wanted to spend time at the beach it was a short drive over the bridge to South Padre Island. Population of Port Isobel is approximately 5000, so it is a relatively quiet town. Lots of restaurants. Grocery stores nearby. Would definitely recommend this property and really hope to go back. We loved it!
