Awesome Condo

The condo was perfect. The best part is having a view on both sides. You can watch the sunrise over the ocean and see the sunset over the Laguna Madre. Also great view of the fireworks on both sides. The beds were very comfortable. Kitchen had everything we needed!! It’s a great condo and we will definitely be staying there again in the future!!!

Disappointed

First of all I’ve stayed in Spi many times over the past 20 years. This place did not meet my expectations. Refrigerator took 24 hours to cool. Had to but an ice chest to keep the groceries cool til it started cooling. The silverware was dirty and I had to wash it before using it. No soap in the kitchen container. Internet which was supposed to be premium did not work. Had to use the front desk sign in every single day which was not premium guest. Remote to the tv in the living room was broke and had to use the bedroom remote. No ice maker, had to use ice trays. The shower in the bathroom had hair in the drain yuk, which then gave me impression the place wasn’t cleaned. Water pressure in the bathroom shower was the weakest I have ever seen in my life. We had friends staying in a condo the floor below us that had awesome short water pressure so it’s not the buildings issue. Positives- good communication with the owner but not really resolved except use the check in desk internet sign in and use the bedroom remote. The view is nice.

Condo was great! Nice, clean, and convenient . Check in and out was a easy. The view was just as described. A beautiful view of the ocean from our balcony. You can walk right out to the beach from the condo property. You are also close to good restaurants, gravity park and other fun activities South Padre Island has to offer.

The condo was beautiful and great location.

Our only issues were there was construction above us the first 2 days but we were out and about on the island most of the time. On Sunday a main water line was broke on the island. These things happen I know. It broke mid afternoon . Later that night the management team turned the water off to the building without communicating with any of the guest. No heads up what so ever so after being on the beach all day, not all of us got showers. A simple note on the front door and elevators should have been placed to give us an idea of what was going on. Sandy with Vrbo was great and will booked again.

Easy access to beach/great view

Stayed 4 nights over the Labor Day holiday. Was impressed with how close it is to the beach. The condo was clean and comfortable. Gated parking area. Front desk at condo was friendly. We had a small issue with the tv not picking up the directv channels, but Sandy (owner) was very helpful. It ended up being an internet issue with the condo building and condo maintenance got it fixed right away. I do agree that the shower pressure was a little low, but that was a minor issue. Enjoyed our stay!

Broke bed...

Just as in a previous review. I had to replace the bricks and boards that supported the box spring under the king-size bed. Even after replacing the brick/boards, the mattress had a hump and no longer a dip. Very uncomfortable bed. Replacing the bed frame should be a priority. Inexspensive and fast. Were it not for the bed frame, the stay would have been perfect. Aside from Covid, the lodgings provide beautiful views of the beach from one side, and beautiful views of the bay and fireworks from the other side.

Great getaway right on the beach

We stayed for a long weekend in South Padre and were very pleased with this location. Excellent beach views from the balcony, right on the beach with private access for the condo complex. I like that the parking lot is gated. The king bed is a little soft and the water pressure in the shower is not great but everything else about this place is perfect. We have stayed in many condos over the years on the island and this is one of good ones! Sandy is very easy to communicate with before the trip. We didn’t have any need to reach her during our stay but there were options to get in touch if necessary. The staff at the front desk was also friendly.

Fantastic views

We totally loved our stay here and would stay here again. The views were incredible and the condo was beautifully updated. We got to watch fireworks from our balcony, which was a nice bonus. I really like the security of this place as well. Private access to beach and gated parking lot. Had a minor incident with toilet. I got in touch with Sandy and she took care of it right away!

Nice place, but somewhat lacking in value

My wife and I just stayed here for a long weekend. The condo is very clean and in a great location. It has a beautiful view of the ocean and beach. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, but there were a few annoyances. 1. The bed fell apart on our first night which led to a less than restful night of sleep. The owner did fix it the next day; not a huge deal. However, for $300 a night, I was really hoping to not have to deal with some sort of "project". 2. The shower is very nice and recently renovated, but the shower pressure was horrible. It took forever to get clean. Not exactly what I was expecting for $300/night. A higher flow shower head would help tremendously. 3. The deck chairs are just cheap, flimsy things. More inline with a cheap motel than a $300/night condo. Again, we enjoyed our time and don't regret choosing this place, but I can't say I'd readily go back, mainly just because of the lack of value. I'd rather spend just a little more and get a really high-quality place. There are a few things the owner can do to make this place feel more like a higher quality rental.

Poor Customer Service

We had construction above us; new owners were jack hammering out tile. The sound was deafening and our small children that were terrified. Sandy was able to get a friend in the building to let us come shower and rest in their place one afternoon, but that didn't solve much for the next couple days. I asked Sandy if we could take a rain check or get put into a hotel, but no such luck. I played the sound for her, and let her know that the workers would be there from 9-5 during the week. Her response was that we could enjoy the beach/town all day and come back after the workers left. That wasn't going to work with small children who needed to rest. If someone was staying in my home, I'd do everything in my power to go above and beyond to ameliorate a situation like this. Great view, nicely appointed, but weak on customer service.

Its where you want to be!!!

Clean, comfortable and very easy. We had a light night check in, the front desk is always open, so if you arrive late as we did, the condo is available ...anytime! We've stayed at this property before and this view was much better, than our previous stay. Very comfortable beds, linens and pillows, they made the stay much more pleasurable after a day at the beach. Kitchen was fully equipped, great blender for pina coladas!! DVD easy to work, all & all I reluctantly recommend, I say reluctantley because the next time we want to tay, it will be booked!!

Condo was GREAT, SPI weather...not so much

If you're looking for a great condo on South Padre, this one is excellent. There is a great view of the ocean and beach from the living area. This balcony also overlooks a very nice landscape area of the Aquarius with a pool, hot tub, and cookout gazebo. Both bedrooms share an additional balcony with a partial view of the gulf and a view up the street. HVAC system is loud, but apartment has a great kitchen and a walk-in shower (not a tub combo), which is super nice. Also kitchen is well-stocked with equipment to cook a meal. There is a coffeemaker and apartment has a dishwasher, range, and nice-sized fridge.There are some walkable eating places -- not like next door, but they are not a bad walk, and the bay front hip-area eating places are less than a mile. I really thought SPI weather would be good, even though it was December, but I was really, really wrong. High winds and blowing water from the gulf and bay were terrible...needed gloves and caps and a couple of layers, and your clothes got soaked..seriously, it was almost as bad as a hurricane, except no flooding. There is an exercise room with a ping pong table in the Aquarius, so that helped, but most all Padre activities are outdoors -- so not a lot to do that's inside, other than eat at a restaurant or cook and play games at the apartment. We did enjoy the Sea Turtle Rescue and braved the elements at the Bird Watching facility. We had one partial day that was nice and did the Southern Wave catamaran that served a nice meal and offered a great view of the New Year's Eve fireworks on 12/30/17 (moved up a day because the weather was going to be worse on 12/31). Honestly, I'm not sure if we could have done better weather-wise if we had gone somewhere else besides Padre-- I think most of the country was hit...at least there was no ice in SPI! Apartment-wise, this one is fantastic and the room was at the end of a hall so there was not any foot traffic by the door, and the apartment is not near the elevator either...and that was nice as well. One more thing...the apartment lacked a little in its cleaning, there was a used Q-Tip left on the floor in the king bedroom and our son mentioned that his comforter didn't seem entirely clean. Overall, though, I would give it an 8 out of 10. Sandy's welcome letter was nice (and helpful) and you can tell she desires to give her customers a high-quality product!

Well maintained condo, building and facilities. People at front desk were so pleasant

Condo has great views both front and back. Kitchen and bathroom are up to date. We had a minor problem with the toilet and the handyman came right over and fixed it, he was great. The kitchen is quite well stocked with pots, plates etc. Found it very comfortable and made our stay that much more enjoyable!!

We love to travel, exploring new places and meeting new people. Our favorite locations are sunny, warm, and near the ocean. We bought our first condo on South Padre Island in 2005, and fell in love with this area. This is our vacation home currently, and our someday retirement home. In opening up our home to guests, we hope to help create treasured memories and love welcoming our repeat guests back year-after-year. We look forward to assisting you!

Why they chose this property

This location is wonderful. You have access to everything nearby and a large double ocean front lot with incredible views. It truly is s wonderful beachfront paradise. My heart has gone into making my condo welcoming and comfortable and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
