The colors in here are fantastic. Clean, comfortable, and cheery. We will be back
The condo was centrally located to access the beach which it was amazing and the local food and bars. People were very friendly. Felt safe and enjoyed the pool at the back. Grounds were very clean.
We enjoyed staying at this condo. We had everything we needed. Very clean. Walking distance to the beach and Tequila Sunset.
I would recommend to bring your own pots and pans if you plan to cook, the ones in the condo are worn out. Definitely would stay again.

This is a wonderful condo! My family had all the room we needed to have a great stay for Christmas. We were disappointed with the variety of pots and pans, bowls, and utensils in the kitchen. It was hard to cook our meals. There was not broom to sweep up the sand. The balcony was a pleasant place to sit in the mornings with our coffee. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to come back soon! Thank you Catherine and Melissa for all your assistance!

Location was great
If you are just needing this place for sleeping is great. I do not enjoy the beach as much so staying in was a little difficult. Pool are had no chairs. Cooking utensils were really cheap making it hard to cook. Guest bathroom does not lock! (From the inside you think it locks but it does not) was okay clean as long as you don’t look at the dust on walls … and also there was no broom. We did have to call after hours bc light came out of pool (hazard) and they did come out asap! (8pm) So far that I do think it’s amazing! Overall if you are a beach person totally recomend it!
The actual location looks as advertised, and it is in a good location to the beach however, this place has an infestation of roaches. There were a variety of different roaches, small ones big ones and every part of the condo, the kitchen table, the counters in the kitchen restroom, as well as the rooms. I do have pictures and videos to support this however it doesn’t give the option to upload. This is definitely issue because you don’t want to bring these home with you so we had to spend a lot of our time ensuring They were not in our luggage. We bought food there and set it on the table and had to throw it away because of small small roaches. I did call the office to make them aware, however no answer nor did I get a call back in regards to the voicemail I left

Great location. Condo was fairly clean. Disappointed that the washer and dryer were not working. Pool area was very clean but the water seemed a bit cloudy and the water was extremely warm. If you are on the second floor the steps are pretty steep so people with mobility issues might have a problem. Overall its a good location and condo. Despite the issues mentioned, I recommend this condo.
The owners allowed me to have a couple boxes shipped to their facility address when I found out the mail service does not go door to door in South Padre

Reviewer Comments:
The rental company is amazing, Melissa is professional, and really works hard to get you taken care of. Every property we have stayed at has been clean and updated. This property however has slipped by and is a mess. The stairs going into the unit are very steep and have screws popping out that your sandals hang up on. The interior was probably once very nice but there is dirt and grime on every wall and baseboard. There is very limited furniture and places to put your belongings, we had to live out of our suitcases. The coffee table is on broke and on its last leg and the master bed is held up with cinder blocks. There is exterior furniture but it is broken and unusable. The air conditioner works but is very loud. The stove has a broken burner. There are also stains all over the living room rug. There are barking dogs every day around 8am below the unit. The pool is ok and the hot tub heat works after 6pm
The condo was in a perfect location for our stay. Walking distance to the beach and the grocery store. Perfect sized condo for my family of four. Really enjoyable stay!

Booking and receiving checking in instructions all went well. Billie from rent on Padre Inc was very helpful!The unit was in a great location - walking distance to a lot of places including stores and the beach. We had everything we needed in the unit except we were only provided 2 rolls of toiletpaper. The place was overall quite clean however it does look like it needs some tender love and care. The walls and doors were pretty dirty and door hinges were squeaky.We were happy with our stay until our second last morning at 8 am when we were still in bed, someone came into the condo!We were quite frightened and uncomfortable. A man was there expecting to stay for the weekend. He said he was with the owner of the condo and that was how he had the code to get inside. This was very unprofessional and showed poor communication between the owner and the management company. We werent even really given a proper apology. No one reached out to us about this incident afterwards.
Absently great location and well professionally done correctly

The condo was very clean, updated and comfortable! Plenty of linens were supplied for the entire stay. It was very convenient and awesome to have the washer and dryer in the unit! The 2 pools were wonderful and serviced frequently during the stay. The kids and I enjoyed swimming daily! The location is absolutely fantastic! The beach was less than a 5 minute walk and the grocery store was right behind the condo on the next street. Restaurants and bars were close by as well. We cooked during our stay and the majority of all cooking utensils and pans were available. Could have used 1 bigger skillet and a baking sheet. Dishes and silverware were great! Beds and bedding were comfy and bathrooms clean and updated! The owners and employees were friendly, kind and informative. They also went out of their way to ensure our stay was amazing! Would highly recommend to anyone wanting a getaway!

This condo is located within 5 min walk to the beach and 1 min walk to the main street - Padre blvd. Entrance is on the second story. It was nice and clean with spacious kitchen. One suggestion would be to add/update pots/skillet/glasses/utensils in the kitchen. Overall I had a nice stay and great communication with the property management.
