Corpus Christi's Premier
Coastal Rental Experience

Coastal Family Homes is the largest short-term rental operator in Corpus Christi—and one of the highest-rated. While scale and quality rarely coexist in the short-term rental industry, we’ve built our reputation by proving they can.

We specialize in luxury coastal properties along Ocean Drive, the most prestigious stretch of real estate in Corpus Christi. Our portfolio—known as the Ocean Drive Collection—represents a curated selection of homes that combine premier location, thoughtful design, and operational consistency. We own every single-family residential short-term rental on Ocean Drive, giving guests a level of access and uniform quality that is unmatched anywhere in the market.

Our approach is simple: deliver a high-end experience, every time. That means well-maintained homes, intentional design, responsive communication, and operational standards built around the expectations of today’s discerning traveler. The result is a portfolio that leads the market not just in size, but in guest satisfaction—a standard that platforms like AirDNA consistently reflect in our top rankings.

| Our Story

Coastal Family Homes was founded by Christopher Munro in partnership with Matthew Ezell. Christopher is a Corpus Christi native with deep ties to the community and a long-term vision for elevating the standard of short-term rentals in the area.

What began as a focused effort to acquire and improve properties along Ocean Drive has grown into a scaled, professionally operated platform that continues to expand while maintaining an uncompromising bar for quality. Every property in our portfolio has been strategically acquired, fully renovated, and brought to life with a guest experience at the center of every decision.

Whether you’re visiting for a weekend getaway or an extended stay, our goal is the same: a seamless, elevated coastal experience in the best locations Corpus Christi has to offer.

“Where you stay should enhance your experience—not complicate it.”
