The Isla Grand Beach Resort is the premier resort along the Texas Gulf Coast. Located right on the beach, in the southern portion of South Padre Island. With ten acres of lush, tropical beachfront grounds, it’s the perfect Island getaway. All that’s between you and the beach are our tennis courts, swimming pools, and an unlimited number of watersport opportunities. Swim in the clear blue surf or take a quiet walk on the beach. Or stake your claim to a reclining chair poolside and let the sun melt away the concerns of the outside world.
