Great!

The location was wonderful and the accommodations were great as well. We had plenty of space for my family of 4 plus my mother in law. We would highly recommend staying here.

Exceptional

Just as pictured. Very clean. Comfortable beds. Cold AC. Great parking. Condo well equipped. Great location. Beach is a 5 min drive. Nice pool and boat docs where you can fish.

Bright, beautiful, and comfortable in a perfect location!

Mermaid Bay was an incredible place for us to live for two months, and we have already booked for next year! This is a newer condo with plenty of space (seats 8 at the dining table!), an open kitchen with quality utensils and every appliance you will need (crockpot, blender, waffle iron, and more!), comfortable beds and linens, and three full baths. The location is totally safe and well-lit at night and the entire property, inside and out was clean and well-maintained. There are nice sized TVs in the living room and all three bedrooms. It is an easy 7ish minutes (2 blocks) walk to the beach or you can drive and park for free in a large parking lot. We love this condo! It is tastefully decorated and had everything we needed. Padre Escapes is great to work with and super responsive to any questions or concerns.

Very nice condo, definitely recommend it!

We have stayed here before, and chose the same condo again for our most recent stay. The resort is very nice and the room is great. It was very clean and included everything we needed. We will definitely stay here again.

Girls Trip 2024

The property was great - beds were comfortable and the living/kitchen/dining area had plenty of space. The pool was really nice as well and the slides made it fun (we had to coerce a few to try it haha). There were 6 of us and we really enjoyed our stay!
Anonymous from New braunfels - Posted: 10/28/2024

You were fantastic guests, Kirsten! It was an honor to host you and your group for this fun girls trip! We cannot wait to host another awesome Padre Escapes vacation for you in the future. Thank you for your awesome review!

Definitely would book again!

We loved this booking! Great location and environment. Pool was great for the kids, although it did look way bigger in the pictures the kids still enjoyed it very much. The only thing we didn’t like was the home we booked had a stench of pets. I guess with us not being pet people we weren’t used to that stench. But other than that everything was great. Loved it!

Mermaid Bay Stay

Since the property is about a block away from the beach, getting to it is a quick walk away. The property itself was nicely decorated and clean. We truly enjoyed our stay.
