About this property

Stay Aboard the Murf Dog: Unique Waterfront Yacht Escape on South Padre Island

Welcome aboard the Murf Dog—your one-of-a-kind floating getaway on beautiful South Padre Island!

Step inside your cozy yet spacious cabin featuring a comfortable queen-size bed, and a fully equipped galley kitchen with a fridge, microwave, and stove—perfect for relaxing mornings or sunset dinners. Stay connected (if you want to!) with Starlink WiFi, or unplug and soak in the peaceful marina vibes. Whether you’re relaxing inside or enjoying the gentle sounds of the water, this spot offers a peaceful getaway. We hope you'll enjoy your stay at our boat.

Trade the ordinary for an unforgettable stay on the water, where every moment feels like a vacation adventure. Docked at Sea Ranch Marina, the Murf Dog puts you right in the heart of it all—just minutes from top dining, the beach water park, and exciting dolphin watching and fishing excursions with Isla Tours and Captain Murphy’s.

Head up to the deck and take in breathtaking sunset views over the water, where the sky lights up in true island style. Want to make it even more special? Upgrade your stay with an optional sunset cruise and experience South Padre from the water like few ever do.

Whether you’re planning a romantic escape, a fun weekend, or just something totally different, the Murf Dog delivers a stay that’s equal parts relaxing and unforgettable.

Sleep on the water. Wake up to adventure. This is South Padre Island—reimagined.
During your stay at this houseboat, you're just a quick walk from Beach Park at Isla Blanca.
  • Just a 5-minute walk from Beach Park at Isla Blanca and 11 minutes by foot from South Padre Island Beach
