Beach View Retreat CBC343K

This rental had a full house with my wife and I along with my brother and his young family. It worked out great! The accommodation was very clean and well stocked with everything you could need for a short stay. The view from balcony onto the Gulf and also overlooking the facility pool was a nice bonus. After our day was over we thoroughly enjoyed the nice breeze while relaxing on the balcony. Between the pool and the beach we had no time to try the other amenities the facility had to offer but we were having to much fun! Short walk to the beach for a little exercise... just a block away if that. We preferred to buy the local beach pass for our vehicle at a very reasonable price and just load our things and drive onto the beach. So convenient! Would definitely stay at this rental again! Yes.. it was on the 3rd floor but it was only a minor inconvenience considering we came down once a day and spent on the beach, at restaurants, or shopping and went up once we were ready to wind down for the evening. Really.. you can't beat how nice this rental was and the view off balcony was totally worth it!

Overall rental was very good. Unit was clean and everything was just as pictured. We were very comfotable. We used the pool and hot tub (very nice) but spent most of our time at beach. Beach is walking distance, but we drove since you can park right on the beach. It wasn't an issue for us, but be aware unit is on 3rd floor and only option is stairs. Only small complaint was very dirty/moldy air vent in bedroom.

Thank you for the feedback, we will be sure to have the housekeepers address the mildew on vents. With the hot and cold air meeting there at the vents and so much moisture in the air mildew will sometimes form. Thank you again for the feedback, we hope to see you back again soon.

It was great... It was all clean and we had everthing we needed.

We stay with y'all so many times and always have a great experienced and a very nice stay. We love to stay with y'all again soon and in the up coming future. Wouldn't stay any where else.

Great place, very close to the beach (within walking distance).

I did a lot of research on many websites and this rental was on most of them. However, I have rented with Padre Escapes before so I went to their site directly and they had the best price of all the other sites. The apartment was very clean, as it gets used often, therefore cleaned often. It was the perfect size for us and our price range, had an awesome view of the beach, pool, pond and other parts of the island. The staff was great and got us anything we needed right away and was very pleasant to deal with.

The only thing I would change would be the pull out sofa bed mattress. But luckily, my kids didn't mind it.

We have used Padre Escapes the past 2 years and plan to use them from here on out. The big websites that say they find the best prices do not link to them, but for each place I researched Padre Escapes had the best prices all over the island and throughout Corpus Christi. They have any type of rental you're looking for.

We had a great time at this location, 1 block from the beach, pool and hot tub to enjoy...too bad it rained 2 of the 4 days, but we still had a good time!

- Anonymous from Irving, Posted: 03/14/2014

Unfortunately it seems to rain at least a few days every Spring Break. But that's a good reason for you guys to come back again! Thanks for the review!

Great location to the beach; great pool hours to accommodate vacationers; room was not totally clean, but overall we would come back here again and recommend to a friend and I already have!

- Alice C. from Kyle, Posted: 08/09/2017

Being 9 months pregnant my only complaint would be the stairs to get to the 3rd floor but if I can do it anybody can. It's was worth those stairs! Very spacious, clean, smelled good, had everything we needed (plates, cups, pans, etc). View of the pool, man made fishing area/doc and the beach/sunset. My only regret is not staying longer :( My family can't wait to come back!

- Danielle C. from San Antonio, Posted: 05/20/2014

Very nice accommodations and very professional staff.

This was a great place to stay for a weekend getaway! The photos are good representations of what you will find in this unit – a real home away from home. My husband camped out on the balcony where he could enjoy a great breeze, a view of the ocean and the sun at his back (behind the unit) in the afternoon/evening. The nearby pool worked great for us as we could keep an eye on the kids. Note that the pool is VERY POPULAR during the weekends in summer so the kids found mid-day to be more enjoyable while everyone was at the beach. We could hear people at the pool at night (after 10 p.m.) but it didn’t interfere with this light sleeper getting to sleep. This unit is also within walking distance to the beach – one block – so if you don’t have need of a vehicle as your “beach base” just hoof it down there and enjoy!

There is a convenience store about a block away and many places to eat in the area if you are not inclined to use the kitchen. Padre Pizzeria is a favorite as well as the German bakery. Also the new Schlitterbahn (coming soon)is very close.

We loved the condo! Everything was clean and neat, and we had everything we needed. Loved the ocean view! The pull out couch bed was very uncomfortable so my sister ended up just sleeping on the couch, not pulled out. This is very close to the beach but the beach near by was filled with tons of seaweed, so we were much happier with driving a little farther the next day to Malaquite Beach. We were sad to leave and hope to come back!

- Lindsay O. from Richardson, Posted: 07/02/2014

We enjoyed our stay at the Beach Club. Close and easy access to the beach. The Beach club was clean and had all the necessary amenities. Kitchen was fully equipped. The keyless entry was awesome, no keys to carry around. Beds were comfy and the balcony view was breath taking. Reservation, check-in and check-out process was very easy and convenient. They have an app for that! We recommend this place despite the unavailable Wi-Fi at the beach club house(Wi-Fi is available at the gym only)!!!

- Ramez N. from Tomball , Posted: 09/03/2014

This condo has one of the best locations in Beach Club, but be warned. You do have to trek up three flights of stairs and being across from the pool comes with a bit of a noise factor when large groups are gathered.
This was our second time at this complex and we found the pool to be very crowded most of the time (early morning the exception). The condo is well appointed with all the necessities and very pretty. The ice maker did not work and a broken chair on the patio, but that was reported. It is clean and the pad lock access was a great feature. The service by the Padre Escapes group is top-notch and I have no complaints with their part of the process. The Beach Club had painters in the hallways and you had to negotiate around them, but they work hard at keeping up the place.

- Kathy H. from Wichita Falls, Posted: 07/26/2014

Thank you for the feedback. If it was up to us that painting would be done by now but unfortunately it's out of our control. It should be done soon though. We look forward to having you back again!

This condo fit our needs perfectly for a quick 3 day beach getaway. Nice, clean and convenient to the beach. We appreciated that the rental office was open late, as we did not arrive until close to 8 pm.

My husband and I rented a condo at the Beach Club while visiting our grandchildren in Corpus Christi. I don't have enough good things to say about our experience. The check in process was seamless, the condo was exactly as it was represented. It was clean, spacious, and had lots of amenities. It was a very short walk to the beach, and the pool area was lovely. The only thing I wished was that the pool was heated. It was freezing cold, and it would have been nice to be able to swim, but other than that we loved it!

- Jacqueline H. from Tualatin, Posted: 11/25/2014

Glad you guys enjoyed your stay so much. I agree a heated pool would be great! Fortunately it's only needed 3-4 months out of the year. Hope we see you back again soon.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

Great location, nice condo that overlooked the pool. The problem was the pull out couch for a sleeping area. Very, very bad mattress. My grand kids were going to sleep on it but they didn't. Felt like springs you were sleeping on. This needs replaced. Place was clean but we were to have some hand soap and bath soap none was left. The office is aware of some of the other issues that can be fixed, hopefully they will fix them. Overall the complex was great and we plan on staying at this property again.

- Anonymous from Liberty Hill, Posted: 06/15/2018

Although the weather did not cooperate during our stay, the condo and complex itself was very nice. It is well stocked with everything you might need on a vacation. The outside balcony has a spectacular distant view of the ocean. You will get your workout during your stay, since the condo is on the 3rd floor with stairs being your only option. Also, the floors throughout the condo are extremely slick. The location of the condo is wonderful!

Great experience and support from property management.

wonderful view and so nice to have a heated pool!

We just finished our third Winter stay at the Beach Club. After having a poor experience a year ago with a private owner, we decided to use Padre Escapes. From the beginning with our booking through our entire two months stay we had nothing but positive interactions with the staff. We especially enjoyed working with Taylor and Emily. The response to our questions and problems was always fast, friendly, and courteous. Thanks for making our stay enjoyable and stress free. We have already booked the same unit for next year. See you then!

- Dale E. , Posted: 03/03/2018

This was our second stay in this unit and it continues to be at the top of our list for places to stay in the area. The location is just a block from the beach. The 3rd floor balcony overlooks the pool, great for keeping an eye on the kids, and has a view of the ocean. Overall it is much quieter than a hotel stay. The management company, Padre Escapes, continues to be friendly and easy to work with.

- Shannon D. from Floresville, Posted: 05/26/2015

The condo has a great view from the balcony, though the 3 story hike was a workout on arrival and departure with all our luggage, groceries, etc. It had everything we needed and was perfect for our young children with the pool right outside and the beach so close by. Definitely a long walk which we were a little disappointed about because some reviews said it was a short block away (not true) but still walkable. We just drove our car onto the beach for convenience anyway. The linens and kitchen supplies were mediocre in quality at best but got the job done. If you’re looking for a relaxing beach vacay with lots of swimming and being outside,this place is perfect. We’d definitely come back.

My husband, daughter, son-in-law & granddaughter stayed for 3 nights. Comfortable beds and well-stocked kitchen. Loved the location. Close to beach and restaurants. Would recommend for 4 adults only as 6 adults would be crowded. No elevator so have to carry stuff up to 3rd floor. Otherwise great place! Would stay again!

- Donna D. from San Antonio, Posted: 05/02/2018

Great for the whole family, close to beach. Would stay here again.
