About this house rental
A tropical oasis in the Heart of Lbk: 2 houses on 1 lot - The Copacabana is the front house & The Bung is the back house, together you have the Island.
5 bedrooms+2 living rooms+2 kitchens+3 bathrooms
PLUS: A outdoor paradise with firepit, grill & games!
The Copa and The Bung are in one of the best areas of Lubbock. You are a short walk to Texas Tech, restaurants and shopping. It's just minutes to the hospitals and entertainment, a 10-minute drive from the airport, and a short drive to Southwest Lubbock.
The Copacabana was built in 1937 and has been updated, but keeping the original beautiful hardwood floors, with the addition to the house having Saltillo tile. It is decorated with a Coastal flair, to let you imagine being at the beach while in Lubbock ;)
The Bung sits behind the Copa, and is a very clean and spacious, 1 bedroom, 1 bath Bungalow with beautiful Saltillo tile floors. It is fully furnished with a retro and a coastal flair.
The Copa’s bedrooms are themed: "Good Vibrations" has a queen size bed filled with Pineapples and Palm Leaves. "Coconutz" has a king size bed filled with coconuts and Palm Trees. "Toes in the Sand" has a king size bed filled with sand from various beaches. "Turtle Cove" has a queen size bed filled with Sea Turtles. The Bung’s bedroom has a king size bed with a mood base, which allows you to raise the bed for reading or watching TV, and a twin size bed. All the bedroom closets are filled with hangers, a suitcase rack, and a soft fluffy robe for the ladies. Each room has a Smart TV with Firesticks: Netflix, Hulu, ESPN+ and Disney+ (local channels via antennae).
The Copa’s living room has (2) deep seated sofas with queen mattress pull-outs for extra guests. The Bung’s living room has a soft leather couch, and a single cot in the bedroom closet.
Both kitchens are very spacious and are fully equipped, including coffee bars!
The back yard is perfect for enjoying life outdoors! There is a gas grill and fire pit, tables, multiple seating areas, and lounge chairs to soak up the sun. Cornhole boards, Darts and Horseshoes to enjoy…or have some friendly competition!
AMENITIES: Shampoo, conditioner, body wash, towels and hair dryer are all on hand for your use. Washer/Dryer, WiFi, Smart TV’s with Firesticks: Netflix, Hulu, ESPN+ and Disney+ (local channels via antennae).

We were in town to attend funeral services. This home was perfect for our large family and with enough space so little ones could have their own space to sleep in their pack-n-plays. Beverly was kind enough to move as many items as possible so our grandchildren weren’t tempted to touch items they shouldn’t. The home was conveniently located for the services we needed to attend as well as convenient to many food options and easy access to and from the airport. The home was perfect for our stay in Lubbock.

We had loads of fun staying at the Island, even though we were there for our Dad's Celebration of Life Reception. We watched videos of Dad's life, cooked hamburgers on the grill, played dominoes on the outside tables, played darts, played cornhole, and ended the night at the fire pit. Loved the property. The outdoor tables and dart areas had great ambiance with the string lights, but would have been good to have better lighting for after-dark gaming. That is the only thing I would change about our stay. The property is set up well for awesome entertaining and visiting!

Perfect location for a weekend celebration for a Texas Tech graduate. The yard offered a fun place to relax and enjoy family without feeling crowed. All enjoyed the games provided and atmosphere. Communication with the owner was efficient and always prompt. Great customer service as well as adding special touches to feel very welcome. Would stay here again.

Great house, both of them! Beverly was there to meet us and give us the rundown. She set the unlock code to our choice which was nice. Great setup if you rent both houses with the fire pit between the two.

Great stay for our large group. The court yard was perfect for all of us to come together and fellowship. The host had thought of everything. We were in town for a not for an awful reason and the ease of having this spot made it a little easier. Wonderful!

This was such a great experience - I'll definitely be back. The owner met us there on arrival to show us around, which was really nice. There was plenty of space for everyone, my sister and her family went in on it together. Location was fantastic, so close to Tech. The couches were so comfy and the kids loved all of the streaming service available. We had so a good time and I can hardly wait to return. My teenaged son left his wallet accidentally and the owner went to a lot of trouble to get it back to us.

watch your step into the copa
Property over all is visually pleasing to the eye. We enjoyed our stay. However, the host could have pointed out some hazardous areas in the back of the main house. Starting with the stairs - would be nice to add some safety tape for better viewing of the stairs since the hall light did not work. We did have a person miss a step and fall. The restroom and bedroom to follow were not level. The restroom door did not close properly and one of the drawers in the back bedroom continued to open on its own due to the slanted floor. Both occupants in that room tripped over the open drawer. The outside patio was nice but had not been wiped down at all. We changed our outdoor plans to grill. Overall the stay was enjoyed by all and we will consider staying at this location again in the future.

Perfect set-up for our group!
This was an amazing property for our large group. Two separate houses connected by a fun yard with a fire pit and plenty of chairs and hang out spots. Our host was so wonderful and even returned a rented tux jacket that we forgot at the house while we were already at the airport! We appreciated this so much. We highly recommend this property and hope to return sometime.

A perfect getaway
The house was amazing! Had everything we needed and so much space! A perfect place for family and we didn't feel like we even had to leave to go do anything, just stay there and enjoy all the accomodations! So clean and the owner was so helpful and sweet! Would 100% rent this house again!

Excellent Location!
We stayed at the island while our son played in a baseball tournament at Texas Tech.
We shared the property with another family and our parents stayed in the Bung.
The property was everything we needed and more. All the amenities you can imagine and clean as can be.
We appreciated all the outdoor activities for the boys to play cornhole, darts, Ring and Hook, etc.
We will definitely stay here again if we travel back to Lubbock.

Backyard Oasis
We rented this property during my daughters wedding. We had several family members stay with us & the backyard was perfect for social gatherings after rehearsal & the wedding. We had everything we needed & loved that we could have a large group of people hang out & celebrate the weekend. Beverly was wonderful! She met us at the house for check in & showed us everything. The house was very clean & had many personal touches. I highly recommend this property & would definitely stay here again!!

Great Venue for a 90th Birthday Party and Family Reunion!
We held my Dad's 90th Birthday Party at "The Island". What a wonderful venue for us! My family came into town and stayed in the houses and we used the backyard for the birthday/family reunion. We couldn't have been happier and Beverly couldn't have been better. She was always responsive and made our stay exceptional! ~ David

If your travels take you to Lubbock...you must stay at The Island!!!
This is the one of cutest VRBOs we have stayed in. We love the beach, but our travels took us to Lubbock. So this house was the best of both. We just needed an ocean sound machine and a little humidity and we would have truly felt like we were at the beach. So many extra details that made us feel like we were at the beach. Every room beautifully decorated with a different beach/tropical theme. And the outside courtyard is AMAZING!! Such a fun place for our family to gather and relax. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be back, if our travels bring us back to Lubbock.
