Condo at the Tiki
Love this place. Have stayed at various units in this complex and all have been very nice. This one was no exception. The only thing I can fault it on is there were absolutely no hangers in the closet. Otherwise, I was very happy with the place.

Beach vacation
Overall it was a good trip although there a few things that could be better. When I arrived it was later in the early evening and office was closed. The door lock and lockbox both need replacing as it was quite difficult to open causing me to break a nail and needing help from a neighbor to get in. when we walked in it smelled like mildew. There is no exhaust fan in the restrooms and the smell could be caused from mold in the attic area. However as my child has allergies he almost immediately started sneezing. Thank goodness I was prepared with meds on hand. The place was clean. It had 2 restrooms and 2 bedrooms. Well stocked kitchen area in case of cooking. Well stocked closet with beach items available for use. Patio is off all the rooms which was a nice detail. Beach at the end of the parking lot was great and within walking distance. Sea turtle conservatory is right across the road from the buildings as well which is why we went to Padre Island so that was great. Did not like that it was the 2nd story. LoL. The pool was great. All in all it was nicely decorated. I think the only other downfall is that the mattress was harder and sheets rougher than I would have liked. We had a good time and stayed for 5 nights. We would stay here again in the future. Hopefully those things are fixed before

Want to relax? Run from this site. Book a hotel
First of all when I walked into the rental it had not been cleaned. There were linens piled everywhere. Second of all, I was charged 200$ because some dishes were left (after I already loaded the dishwasher) and the floors werent clean (mostly sand from what I remember). And some "damage to the paint" which I didnt see when we left. I could tell this host was a little neurotic because I have stayed in these type of places before and never seen a lable where everything goes like "8 plates here" or "17 kniefs" or "everything has been video recorded". If you want to relax on your vacation and not worry about cleaning the floors before you leave, I suggest a hotel. I know I wont rent one of these again.

It's just a few steps from everything you need.
Kitchen was tight and beds were a bit firm. Other than that we loved the convenience of this condos location. We had dinner at Bar Louie, got a drink from Claytons, and the rest of our stay we laid by the beach and pool! This place had pretty much everything you needed. The distance to and from the beach wasn't bad either. We did enjoy our stay and rated 5 star for location, convenience, and cleanliness.

A great return visit
The unit had everything we needed to prepare meals, and plenty of toys and gear for young kids. Beds and furniture were comfortable, and the space is clean, updated, and well-decorated. The grounds at the Tiki are well maintained and safe with a good presence of staff, ground crew, and security. Everyone was so friendly! This was our family's second stay at "the mermaid beach house" and we will definitely be back next year!

Great Location!!!!
To me no better location on the island! Loved the restaurants/Bar choices steps from here. The bird sanctuary across the street was great. Condo was roomy and description spot on. The only time we got in the car was to horseback ride at the end of the Island, which I highly recommend. Owner was very responsive with questions and refunding since we decided not to bring our dogs. Will definetly book again!

Winter break
The condo was everything it was advertised as. It worked well for us with four adults and two small children. Having two bedrooms and two bathrooms was great. As a bonus there were some beach toys, pool noodles, and other amenities for the kiddos. Everything worked well. The only small suggestion would be that we needed more paper goods and garbage bags.

50th Birthday Week
I loved the location and the condo was nice, needs a little bit of up keep (holes where people have hit the wall with chair in living room and back bathroom had a towel hanger ripped from wall). Nothing that would keep us from going back. We did have an issue with the internet and being able to sign in on the Roku, it never worked. Owner said it was the condo community internet issue - called the front desk and they were not having issues. Also, the DVD needs to be replaced or taken off of the listing - it did not work either.

Cleanliness
We walk into the condo and it’s dirty, no sheets, cushions all over the floor, furniture moved all over, trash left behind, appears it was left by previous renters. Tried calling the owner and spouse and no answer. Tried phone number on the reservation without success. We had to clean the condo ourselves. Very dissatisfied with the owners lack of communication and cleanliness of condo. We stay at Tiki every year and this is the first time this has happened, never will we stay at this condo ever again.
