The condo was perfect for our first trip to SPI. The beach was a 2-minute walk from our door. The host even offered us a free extra night since our flight had been delayed a day in Dallas because of storms.

Condo had everything we needed. Clean and nicely decorated. The combination washer/dryer although small was very convenient. The beach is steps away and the heated pool is directly down the steps. The Tiki staff were very helpful and we met some amazing people. Easy communication with the host and we appreciated an early check in. Highly recommend and we hope to return!
Cute little place, had everything you need. Owners were quick to respond, easy check in , good parking, good location.

We had a wonderful 4-night stay over the 4th of July weekend! The condo was clean, comfortable, fully furnished, and just steps from the beach. The 1-bedroom, 1-bath layout with a pull-out couch was perfect for our family of four, including our two teenage daughters. We especially appreciated the dehumidifier and the large mirrors—it made it so easy for everyone to get ready at once!

The rental, the property, and the location are excellent! As an added bonus pets are accepted too. From the very close beach access, to the pool, and the surprise of having a firewarks show on our balcony each night (the weekend nights), therre would be no hssitatin to return or suggest the property to my family and friends!

About the host
Hosted by Bill and Barb Bartell
Married for 40 years and three kids later, Barb and I have always enjoyed the beach. Our kids completely agree! It doesn't matter if we are relaxing in the sun, having a good meal, or participating in activities, we prefer to do it on a beach. The kids have varied interests and are much more active than mom and dad. South Padre offers something for each of us individually and one of our favorite places to make memories and establish traditions.
We enjoy spending time with our family and friends!
Why they chose this property
Barb and I first vacationed in South Padre in 1988, and we fell in love with this hidden gem. In 2013 we had a family vacation in South Padre, with some special friends who introduced us to the Tiki Condominium location, which was a dream come true. It was a combination of owners, staff, conditions of the complex, beachfront, and location near activities and restaurants that made our decision to own here easy.
We hope everyone who stays in our condo, whether for a few days or months, will leave with the same love for South Padre Island as we have.
What makes this property unique
We enjoyed the beautiful views of the beach and sounds of the ocean from our balcony. There's nothing quite like enjoying a morning coffee on the balcony watching the waves roll in before anyone else is up! Likewise, we have a perfect view of the fireworks offered at Clayton's on Friday and Saturday nights (if we choose). We love having friends join us for this special experience. The beach is just steps away, and the option to enjoy one of our two tropical pools, makes this a relaxing and memorable vacation stay.
