Great stay and beautiful condo!

We had a great time. The condo was very clean and super spacious…each kid had their own room and bathroom which was super useful when it was time to shower and get ready. Patio was HUGE and a bonus great space! My only complaint was that the host didn’t provide beach chairs, umbrella or beach towels. Every other condo we’ve ever stayed at has provided those things (sometimes even beach toys too) so that was a bummer to need to go out and buy more stuff we really didn’t need to bring back home with us. Full disclosure, it could have said that in the description and I completely looked it over. Just a heads up for any future guests bc we would have def brought our own stuff if we knew. Overall we would absolutely stay here again. Thank you!

Beautiful, Spacious Condo

The condo is large, clean, spacious, and beautiful. The location is amazing--right on the beach! My family enjoyed the condo and the vacation very much. The manager from HomeAway (Raj) was particularly attentive, prompt, and helpful. The one thing that is needed on the property is a hose for spraying off beach chairs and other items taken to the beach. There is a shower and a lower valve for feet but no hose. But this didn't take away from the awesomeness.

South Padre Island trip

Even though the weather was terrible we ati had a good time. The condo was very nice. They checked in on us everyday to see if we needed anything and were very quick to address issues. You normally would not care if the pool is not heated but this time it would have been nice. It was too cold to use the pool. The other tenants were great until the last night we were there. They had just checked in that day and were up partying until way past 5 am. Twice I had to go ask them to turn music down. I hated to call the manager in the middle of the night and I was hoping by asking them directly they would keep it down. I did let them know the next day that they might want to check in with their new tenants because anyone checking in after us may not be so patient. Flying home with no sleep ended our trip on a little sour note. Next time we might stay somewhere you don’t have to worry about other guests. We went on the off season partly because of that reason. The proximity to the beach was perfect and the condo has everything you need. Plenty of room and space.

Great condo for a family

We had a great time over Spring Break. The neighbors were a little loud upstairs, but again, it was Spring Break. Great condo, exactly as shown in the pictures. Fully stocked kitchen, great beds, clean property. Really nice staff helped with towels and any issues. Would stay again

Ideal beach condo

My family and I had a fantastic experience at this property. The condo was surprisingly spacious, comfortable, and impressively modern. The beach is immediately accessible and the area is not overcrowded. Each of the tenants in the other three condos were very considerate of each other. I look forward to booking this property again next summer.
