SOUTH PADRE ISLAND, Texas – Margaritaville Beach Resort South Padre Island has officially opened as the first Texas beachfront resort in the Margaritaville portfolio.
Set on a prime location in South Padre Island, the destination offers all-ocean view rooms and condos.
“We are thrilled to bring Margaritaville to the south Texas coast, allowing locals, guests, and visitors alike to experience a one-of-a-kind oasis,” says Rone Middler, general manager of Margaritaville Beach Resort South Padre Island. “An easy drive or plane trip from the major metro areas of San Antonio, Austin, Dallas, and Houston and convenient access to Mexico, Margaritaville Beach Resort South Padre Island provides the perfect getaway for guests of all ages looking for fun, relaxation, and adventure.”
Highline Hospitality Partners, the hospitality investment platform launched by Highline Real Estate Partners (HREP), invested more than $30 million to completely transform the former Pearl Hotel South Padre into a Margaritaville resort.
The island-inspired design of the resort is seen in the 200 guestrooms and 50 beachfront condos with one-, two-, or three-bedroom configurations.
The resort hosts meetings, special events, Quinceañeras, family reunions, and weddings, offering 8,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor meeting space with access to the latest audiovisual equipment and other amenities.
Dining options include three restaurants and bars: LandShark Bar & Grill, which offers indoor and outdoor patio seating overlooking the Gulf of Mexico; the Salty Rim Bar & Grill, a swim-up bar, serving signature cocktails and bar bites; and Joe Merchant‘s Coffee & Provisions, a grab-and-go destination for bold coffee drinks and quick bites.
The hotel pool, heated all year round, is surrounded by private cabanas and a separate area for kids. Nearby Hammock Row allows guests to lounge under towering palm trees while outdoor fire pits encourage guests to unwind while gazing at the Texas night sky.
Adjacent to the resort is the Sapphire Spa, offering guests the opportunity to rejuvenate with an array of treatment options, a full hair and makeup salon, and a fully equipped fitness center.
Those interested in beachside adventures can schedule activities at the resort’s concierge desk, including windsurfing, banana boat rides, parasailing, offshore fishing, dolphin watching, or wave runner rentals.
