The property was clean and well kept. The location was prefect and a short wall to the beach and the Salty Dolphin. We all had a great stay!

Overall it was a good stay, very clean and super close to the beach. The pool/ playground was a huge hit with the kids. The beds are not very comfortable and the downstairs shower is very slippery when wet and the kids kept falling. The outdoor grills are rusted so I suggest bringing your own but they did have a baby gate for the stairs which was nice.

Family Getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a nice condo close to beach! Only problem noted was that the GFCI on the wall with the stove kept tripping every time you tried to use the coffee pot had to move coffee maker to a different plug on a different wall. Also the living room rug was pretty soiled and could used a good shampoo or replacement.
Response from VrboOwner on 23 July 2025
Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the condo and its close proximity to the beach. We appreciate you letting us know about the outlet issue and living room rug—both will be passed along to our team to address. We hope to welcome you back for an even better stay next time!

A sanctuary for traveling families

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This place was an absolute treasure for our family! The accommodations were perfect for my 6 and 9 year old who needed some fun (bunk beds, splash pad, pool, and playground), but also for myself who needed all these amenities in a secure and safe environment. The townhome felt brand new, management was easily reached by text, and the location was walking distance to the beach. I would definitely come back!

Great stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The place was comfortable and as advertised. It was within a reasonable walking distance to the beach, and the pool was great for our six kids.We had a couple minor maintenance issues, and the management company was swift to respond and get them fixed.The only catch for us was it was advertised as having beds for 10 I think, but only had seating for 4 at the counter. I should have payed attention to the pictures and noticed the lack of a table in the public space. Our game night plans changed a little, but we made it work.

Nice location, disappointed by other tendants

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a nice place to stay and the pool/play area was awesome. We were a family of 5 with a toddler so the location was perfect and fun for our grandson to play. The disappointing factor was the size of parking and how my husband's truck was vandalized while we were there (broken mirror on driver side) which we believe happened by the tenants next door parking. The parking was tight, particularly for full-size vehicles therefore the assumption is they got angry that the mirror was in their "parking area" which we were parked within the lines as assigned. Other than this we have no complaints, great place and nice condo.
Response from VrboOwner on 12 July 2025
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re glad you enjoyed the condo, especially the pool and play area perfect for your grandson. We’re sorry to hear about the parking situation and your husband’s truck—tight parking can be challenging, and we understand how frustrating that must have been. We appreciate your feedback and hope to provide an even better stay next time.

Nice place to stay and share good moments. I would said almost perfect. The rear patio access is thru a bedroom kind of har for people that stay there. Awesome place

Almost perfect? Next time, let's make it perfect! We're so glad you enjoyed the home and made some great memories while you were here. We appreciate the feedback about the patio access too—we can definitely understand how having to go through a bedroom isn't ideal for everyone. Thanks for choosing Padre Escapes and calling it an awesome place! We hope you'll come back and make even more good memories with us.

We traveled with another family and there was plenty of room. The AC worked great which was very important to us. The property was close enough to walk to the beach but we drove because of all the things we needed to bring. My only negative about the stay was the pool; it was really dirty.

Response from VrboOwner on 3 July 2026
We're so glad your group had a great stay! It's wonderful to hear the home had plenty of space for both families and that the A/C kept everyone cool during your visit. We're also glad you enjoyed the convenient location near the beach. We're sorry the pool wasn't as clean as you expected. The HOA has it professionally cleaned five times each week, but because it's such a popular amenity during the summer, it does see a lot of use throughout the day. We appreciate you sharing your feedback. Thank you for choosing to stay with us. We hope to welcome you back for another beach getaway soon!
