Furnished monthly housing for per-diem and traveling workers in South Texas.
Starlite Cabins offers private furnished one-bedroom monthly housing for traveling construction workers, skilled trades, technicians, contractors, project staff and other employees who receive a daily housing allowance or per diem. Compare Wren for Robstown, Calallen and Northwest Corpus Christi assignments, or Driscoll for Bishop, Kingsville and I-69E / US-77 work routes.
Starlite does not determine your employer's per-diem policy, reimbursement rules or tax treatment. Confirm those details directly with your employer. Starlite is monthly housing, not nightly lodging.
Compare a daily allowance with monthly housing
Turn a per-diem number into a realistic housing comparison.
Workers are often quoted a daily allowance even when the assignment lasts for weeks or months. A simple 30-day equivalent can make the monthly housing decision easier to evaluate.

Security deposit: $500. Applicable background-screening fees are separate. Availability, minimum-stay requirements and lease details can change.

Built for assignment-based living
The practical features traveling workers usually need.
Private detached one-bedroom
Your own residence, entrance, bathroom, living space and parking rather than a room inside a hotel or shared crew house.
Kitchen and in-unit laundry
A full kitchen plus washer and dryer inside the cabin can reduce restaurant, laundromat and hotel friction during a long assignment.
Utilities and Wi-Fi included
Standard electricity, water and sewer, trash service and Wi-Fi are included in the published monthly package.
Common traveling-worker searches
Per diem is only one phrase workers use.
Starlite can also be relevant to searches for traveling worker housing, skilled-trades housing, temporary jobsite housing, workforce housing, crew housing, contractor lodging, project assignment housing and monthly furnished rentals near work.
Construction and skilled trades
Carpenters, electricians, welders, pipefitters, equipment operators, inspectors and other trades may travel for assignments lasting weeks or months.
Technicians and project staff
Field technicians, project coordinators, engineers, maintenance personnel and other temporary staff can use the same housing setup.
Rotating and night-shift workers
A detached cabin with no shared walls, private parking and in-unit laundry can be worth comparing for workers whose shifts do not match a normal daytime schedule.
