South Padre Airbnbs

Are you wondering what some common tacked on or hidden fees you can see by Airbnb hosts after you make your booking:

1.) In March for college spring break South Padre Island and during easter Semana Santa, there are Security Wristband Fees

2.) Surprise “after check out” cleaning fees if you as a guest don’t do the required “chore list” the host requires

3.) Occupancy tax of 6% is charged up front by Airbnb, then you realize after you book in the fine print another 11% occupancy tax is due for the City/County portion they charge you after you book (yes they can do this!)

*Extra damage deposits or security deposits not disclosed

*Per person additional charges if you go over some super guest count

*Extra charges to check in on a Friday

*Exorbitant pet fees despite listing saying it is “pet friendly.”

*Super common – Processing, Management, Linen, or resort fees. This all adds up

*Weirdo check in times like after 4 pm or check out by 10 am (we are 3 pm check in and 11 am check out)

*A fee to park you vehicle
