A short distance from fishing, swimming, and more, this smoke-free cottage lets you experience it all. Mustang Island Beach is an easy 6-minute walk away, so you can leave your car at the property, which offers onsite parking, or jump in your vehicle to make short work of the 3-minute drive to Palmilla Beach Golf Club.

After you return, you can unwind by the outdoor pool or sip a drink on the patio; you may also like the BBQ grill. For a change of scenery, come inside and enjoy the TV and DVD player.

This 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom rental features a dining area, air conditioning, a ceiling fan, and concierge services. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a dishwasher, as well as an ice maker, a microwave, and cookware. And because there's a washer/dryer, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
