The Story Behind Cosmic Cactus

In 2022, interior designer and real estate developer Tiffany Zhou sought to bring her passion for design and hospitality to South Padre Island. Recognizing a lack of high-end, thoughtfully designed homes in the area for the growing Space-enthusiast community, Tiffany set out to create boutique stays that are as comfortable as they are memorable.

Cosmic Cactus homes are more than just spaces — they’re destinations.

Tiffany’s properties blend the laid-back elegance of a coastal retreat with a space cowboy twist inspired by the nearby SpaceX launch site.

Her hands-on approach—designing, building, and furnishing every property herself—ensures a high level of quality and personal touch. The Cosmic Cactus family includes 11 unique properties in Port Isabel and South Padre Island.
