Excellent experience
This was our second year here, and we've already signed for next year. Everything about the property itself was wonderful. When we needed repairs, they were done quickly. One thing that brings it down slightly was the sofas. They're very soft and difficult to get out of. Basically, we sat in the barrel chairs the whole time (including last year) as they gave more support and fit shorter people better.

Family Memories created
Property was very nice and we made some great family memories including First Fish. Pros: plenty of space, very nice variety of activities on the grounds: backyard fishing, pickleball, swimming. Not so pro: I wish they had been more generous on towels and consumables like shampoo, body wash. There was smoke odor in the place (boo smokers!) and the floors could use a little cleaning. Pool noise was apparent - not sure residency is enforced. The couch (a foldout) was not comfortable at all to sit on - as most fold outs are. There were other chairs to sit in so that was good. Plenty of deck chairs on the balcony. Water access for fishing was great.

We will come back but wasn’t quite the home run we were wanting given the price.
Anonymous from Austin - Posted: 9/3/2025
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled your family made lasting memories, including catching that first fish! Fair winds TABK021 does have direct water access and views, we are happy you enjoyed it! We do provide details on included amenities and supplies in the listing, but we’ll also use your feedback to see where we can improve. We appreciate your notes about cleanliness and comfort as well and will share them with our team. We’d love the chance to welcome you back and hopefully knock it out of the park next time! - Padre Escapes

Does not sleep 12 people.
This place was okay it was super clean. However it does not fit 12 people as noted so a few of us were out of the bed. There were also a couple really loud parties until about 2:00 in the morning but security did finally shut them down. It was really nice to be able to stay right by the water like that. More than anything we were just disappointed that every adult didn't have a place to sleep as listed. The top bunk will only hold one small child even though it's listed as a full size bed. When I alerted them about the problems with not having enough beds they kind of just brushed it off and didn't even offer me a partial refund.
Michelle N. - Posted: 6/14/2025
Thank you for your feedback and for staying with us. We’re glad you found the property super clean and enjoyed the waterfront location. We want to clarify that the property does sleep 12, and we list the bed setup clearly in the description to show how it accommodates that number. We understand that not everyone is comfortable sharing a bed, and while the top bunk is best suited for smaller guests, we do clearly list the number of occupants allowed so guests can plan accordingly. We’re sorry to hear about the noise disturbance and appreciate you letting us know; we’re glad security was able to address it. We also regret that you felt your concerns about bedding were brushed off — please know we take all guest feedback seriously and encourage guests to reach out during their stay so we can assist promptly. Thank you again for your input, and we hope to better meet your expectations in the future.

Very Unsatisfied ��
As I'm aware, the issue with being without power about 80% of our stay is out of the control of Padre Escapes, however the pool availability is. The pool was roped off with Caution tape both Friday and Saturday. As I have been booking with Padre Escapes every year, this year was a a disappointment
My condo is right next to the pool for the simple fact the kids have something to do. Especially that we had no light, the pool would have been very affective. I did talk to one of the maintenance reps and he did inform me the individual responsible for cleaning the pool was not answering calls. If I'm correct, a kid had an accident in the pool but the turnaround time to get the pool back to us customers was very poor. We basically had to sit in the dark for 2 days. Luckily the beach was available at sunlight.
Domingo G. from Bishop - Posted: 5/6/2025
Thank you for your honest feedback and for being a loyal guest. We’re sorry for the extended pool closure and understand how disappointing that was, especially with the power issues. We appreciate you speaking with our maintenance team, and we’re addressing these challenges to improve turnaround times. We hope to provide a better experience for you next year.

I wish I could live in this beautiful home. My husband and I are already planning our next visit. The home is decorated beautifully. The location is great. Our dog loved being able to jump off the dock and the pool was fantastic!!!

Great Place to Stay
We wish we could have stayed longer! Perfect place for our family to stay while we were there for a TAMUCC graduation. It’s beautifully decorated, clean & comfy. Perfect place for fishing off the dock, which was a big hit with the kids! Definitely recommend and hope to return soon!
Only negative encounter is that the Keurig spews coffee everywhere. Other than that, perfect stay!
Donna G. from Decatur - Posted: 12/16/2024
Thank you for your kind words and recognition, Donna! We are happy to hear you had a wonderful stay overall! We have let our team know of the issue you ran into with the Keurig and they will be checking it out to get it fixed or replaced!

What An Amazing Place To Relax
What an amazing place to stay! We went for a girls trip and had the most relaxing time. Beautiful sunsets, close to the beach and the pool, patio with Adirondack chairs overlooking the water. Clean, comfortable beds, plenty of room to spread out. Three bathrooms. Everything we needed to cook with! We have already booked our next trip to Fair Winds!

Well the unit was very nice and clean. Not a whole lot of utensils to cook with. There were plenty of roaches'. killed about 30 of them. Not happy about that. Very quiet, except for the pool part. Other people from other complexes came and used the pool. No one wore the bracelets that were in the condos to excess the pool. There should be stricter rules enforced for that area. All in all we would rent again.
Patty A. from Killeen - Posted: 9/3/2024
Thank you for your honest feedback, Patty. We know you have been staying with us multiple times a year for many years and we take your feedback very seriously since you are well aware of our standards. We're glad to hear you found the unit clean and enjoyed the quiet atmosphere. We sincerely apologize for the issues you encountered. We have quarterly pest control services in place at the complex, but unfortunately, these issues can sometimes arise during periods of heavy rainfall. This property has been treated and has a second treatment scheduled to ensure this is fully resolved. Regarding the pool area, we appreciate your insights and will be sharing your feedback with our team and the HOA to explore additional ways to enforce rules and enhance security, preventing unauthorized access. We value your suggestions and are committed to making your next stay even better.

The place is very cute. The back of the house faces the water and a great spot to fish. We even saw dolphins from the back porch. The unit is right next to the pool which made it very convenient since we had young kids. The kids and adults had fun on the water slides

Great unit!
Aruba Bay is a fun place, especially with kids, the pool/slide area is a lot of fun for them. We stayed in a canal side unit with direct access to the pier and we had a lot of fun fishing. The unit itself was very spacious and had 3 full bathrooms, which was great for our family of 5. We would definitely stay in this unit again!
