Fortuna Bay B/B
This hideaway on Texas' North Padre Island is well worth the search. Cradled between the Gulf of Mexico and Laguna Madre, this three story red tiled roof inn is quite simply incredible. Our B/B is at the intersection of 5 canals with the main canal leading to the Laguna Madre five minutes away. The Gulf of Mexico and it's white sand beaches are also five minutes away. We were voted one of the top 15 Bed and Breakfast's in the United States for "Sunset Views". We are a complex of eighteen condominiums converted into a unique Bed and Breakfast Inn. Swin in the pool, play golf at Padre Isles Country Club, fish off the deck, go birding at the National Seashore (15minutes away), go sail boarding at Bird Island, go to the beach or just get a masage on the deck--it's your choice. You might think you are in the Caribbean.
