Coastal Cottage CPB606K

Our stay at Palm Bay Village was one to remember for all the right reasons. Checking in was contactless, and management was one phone call away from any questions. The condo had everything we needed to feel at home. Everything was comfortable and quiet. The inside was clean, upgraded and renovated, The tv, games, and the open floor concept were all great. We felt safe and secure during our entire stay. The lagoon pool was a hit with our kids. Our 6 year old loved the rock wall cave while our 1 year old enjoyed splashing around in the shallow water. Right down the road was the beach access less than a mile away, and the close by stores had anything we may have forgotten at home. We will definitely be coming back.

We had a great experience.

This vacation rental was one of the nicest we have ever stayed at. We met the owners and they were very nice and kind. I can't say enough about Padre Escapes they are the greatest and most helpful people I have dealt with. Thank you for a wonderful vacation. We are going back this year.

- Ronald L. from Davenport, Posted: 03/17/2022

Wow! Thank you for this awesome review! We are so glad you enjoyed the condo and appreciated our services! Palm bay is a guest favorite and it looks like it might be yours too! We look forward to seeing you next year!

This was by far the best location we've stayed since we began coming to Corpus Christi/Port Aransas many years ago. The unit was just as it is pictured - clean, welcoming and cozy. Five minutes drive to the beach and lots of shops & restaurants close. The only suggestion is to include bathroom cleaning supplies just as they are supplied for the kitchen (especially for guests with week long stays or more). We will definitely chose Palm Bay Rentals thru Padre Escapes as our first choice in the future.

- Dolores W. from Round Rock, Posted: 07/04/2021

Thank you for the awesome feedback! Palm Bay is one of our favorite complexes as well; the resort style pool is had to beat! Due to insurance purposes we are unable to leave certain cleaners in the unit, good idea though. We look forward to hosting you again, Your friends at Padre Escapes!

Thoughtfully stocked, clean, and less than a minute from the beach. Will book again.

This little place was perfect for wife, baby, and me. Very clean, great location, fully stocked. Will definitely be going back!

Richard, thank you for your kind review! It was our pleasure hosting you and your family !

My partner and I decided to take a last-minute trip to the beach. The property was clean, relaxing, and quiet. We were very impressed with how well the kitchen tools were curated as we love to cook. The patio was perfect for our dog as well!
I do think it is important to keep in mind that the managing rental company is very busy this time of year, so call wait times were longer than normal. Their customer service was great though!

- Anonymous from Waco, Posted: 08/05/2020

Even though beach access was closed to vehicles we were able to park and walk as the cottage is about 0.8 miles from whitecap beach . The cottage was clean and so close to everything we needed. So comfortable for our family of 3 plus our dog. I wish there was a safe grassy area for a dog park , it took a couple of days for the dog to get used to using the gravel to do her business. Pool area was fantastic and clean! We couldn’t get the internet to work and nobody responded via email but we had some cell service. Overall great & relaxing stay!!

We had a wonderful get away! The condo was perfection for the two of us! We were close to several beaches which is exactly our way to enjoy our days!
The evenings we cooked at the grills near our condo, enjoying our patio dinners
And relaxed in the lovely lagoon pool. We hated to leave !
We will request this same condo next Anniversary!

- Holly Lynn Jeff V. from Houston, Posted: 06/19/2020

Place is comfortable, clean and conveniently located to the beach and Bob Hall Pier. Our family had a great time!

Internet was not working which was inconvenient and disappointing.

- Amy C. from Houston, Posted: 06/06/2020

This room fit all of our needs: Had a pool, was close to the beach and pier, and was just the right size for 4 people. The pool was definitely way better than the pictures show, and we spent our evenings in it because we loved it so much. The room was very clean, and comfortable. They provide all of the things you’ll need during your stay (dishwasher tabs, dish washing sponge, one pack of laundry detergent, a trash bag, etc), but the one thing that we wished we had extras or was towels. We had 4 people, and only 4 towels, so be sure to take some of your own. There are gas grills located near the room, but grill cleaning tools were not provided. Be sure to bring your own or cook on foil. Another thing to note is the listing says one parking spot is available, but they also have guest parking spots in the same lot for additional parking. Overall, a great stay. We’ve already recommended it to multiple friends.

Only complaints we had were:
- the keurig was leaking, and not working. There is a regular coffee maker in the room, but we only had K cups.
- we requested early check in. I listed it in the agreement, called the day before we left, the day of to let them know we were waiting at 12:00 and they said it should be ready soon and they’d expedite the request since we were waiting, again at 1:30 to be told it needed one small thing and should be ready in the next few minutes, then lastly at 3:10 (check in is 3:00) to ask why we were still not given a door code. They finally sent the codes, and NEVER apologized for the delay.

- Josiah R. from Devine, Posted: 05/27/2020

We do apologize for the delay, with the current steps we have in place to ensure you arrive at a clean and disinfected property it does take a little extra time. As we mention we cannot accommodate all early check-in requests but we'll do our best. Normal check-in time is 4:00pm. Thank you for letting us know about the Keurig, we'll work with the owner on replacing it. Thank you for the feedback.

This place was outstanding! Extremely clean, very well decorated and the decorations were done with taste and warmth: Perfect size for the 2 of us and our little pup ��. The pool was also a great place to spend the day. Beach access is right across the street!

- Randy Z. from Round Rock , Posted: 09/25/2019

This coastal cottage was wonderful! It is beautifully decorated, the bed was comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked. Also, the internet was reliable - we had no issues with it at all - which is important since my husband's business depends on it. The property was clean and the management company provided friendly, professional service. Would highly recommend this unit!

- Mary G. from Corpus Christi, Posted: 05/20/2019

My husband and I were very impressed with the full experience will be back to #606 in the coming years.

Definitely a great place to stay! Recommend to anyone!

- Cristian David G. from Victoria, Posted: 05/30/2018

We’re Winter Texans who usually stay in Rockport. We found Padre Escapes on line and decided to take a chance on N Padre Island. The people at Padre Escapes were great to deal with. Both with reservations and anything we needed while we were there. Palm Bay Village was wonderful. Our unit was more than comfortable and had everything we needed for a 2 1/2 month stay. Met a lot of great people around the pool which is one of the best on the island!!! We would defiantly stay there again!��

- Kenneth M. from Sycamore, Posted: 04/03/2018

Was happy to find a place to rest our weary heads and accept my cats

This condo was very clean and very refreshing. The wifi and TV reception was crisp and available through out the condo. All in all, the condo was a cut above similar condos in the same resort.

- Anonymous from New Braunfels, Posted: 07/27/2017

We absolutely enjoyed our stay! The pool was perfect for our 5 and 7 year old kids. We had excellent access to the beach and fishing spots, which were both must haves for our family. We will definitely be visiting again!

- Amber B. from McKinney, Posted: 07/11/2017

Thank you for the feedback! We look forward to having you back again soon!

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

The condo was clean and the ac worked great. The ice dispenser never worked, we called the first day to let the property managers know and no one was ever sent out. The garbage disposal also never worked. The condo is close to beach access. The pool and grounds are nice. Didn't seem to be enough pool chairs during peak hours. There were also multiple vehicles parked along side of the narrow road by our gate for the entirety of our stay making driving on the road very difficult.

- Bryant C. from Spring, Posted: 07/05/2017

home away from home!

- Melissa C. from Raymondville, Posted: 04/12/2017

Had a great experience at Padre Escapes! Condo was perfect for me and my niece and loved the pool! Beach was close by. Would come again in a heartbeat.

- Maria A. from San Antonio, Posted: 09/07/2016

We relocated and it was a great place that took a dog. It was quite and had a nice pool area.

We enjoyed our stay at the Coastal Cottage. This was our 2nd time staying at C.Cottage. The location is great, and the condo itself has always been neat and clean. It has everything a vacationer needs.

Very nice accommodations. Quiet complex and restful complex. Close to nearby restaurants. Easy, quick jaunt to beach. Rental unit manager very responsive to questions or needs.

- Anonymous from San Antonio, Posted: 10/27/2015

The Coastal Cottage was a great place to enjoy our first trip to Corpus Christi! We brought along our two small dogs and the condo fit our needs perfectly. Everything was clean and ready for our arrival. The king bed was comfortable and the spacious living room and kitchen provided a good place to relax. The outdoor patio was a quiet spot and proved useful for drying out beach towels and swimsuits. The location of the condo was also very handy. There are many good restaurants within a couple of miles and the beach is just down the road. The true mark of any vacation stay is whether you will return. In this case I definitely plan on returning to the Coastal Cottage!

- Ben C. from Bulverde, Posted: 09/15/2015

We had a wonderful time! The place was everything we needed and very comfortable. Plan to stay again as soon as possible!

We loved the pool and the grill! ?? The room was nice size and the sheets and towels were clean. Loved the washer dryer, but the dryer put a few black marks on some of our cloths. ?? and the microwave made a loud noise when you opened it and closed it.

- Vanessa P. from Centerville, Posted: 06/30/2015

The rental unit was well furnished and comfortable. Location is along main park road close to restaurants & the beach. Only view is from bedroom window looking out at parking lot. Beyond that is an empty lot with grasses etc. Only problems we had were - the pull out sofa bed mattress was very uncomfortable, we killed 3 roaches while there, and parking is very inconvenient. You park behind the entrance to the unit and then walk around the building and through a gate to enter condo. Rolling suitcases down the sidewalk with gravel was difficult & we were very hot after loading/unloading and making all those trips back & forth.

- Anonymous from Cleburne, Posted: 06/17/2015

This was our first VBRO experience and overall I was very pleased with it. It was wonderful having a full kitchen and a comfortable, fairly roomy, living area; so much better than cramming into a small hotel room as we usually do. The condo was very clean and well stocked with everything you might need in the kitchen. The overall ambiance of the condo complex lacked a bit, but it did seem well taken care of and it was very nice to be able to walk next door to the convenience store for last minute snacks to go with our evening movie. It is just a very short drive to the beach and just off the main road so that convenience was a plus. Also, the staff at the rental company went above and beyond in their efforts to make our stay comfortable. I really appreciated their hospitality. If you are making a trip to the beach on a budget, as we did, this is a great option.

- Kimberly W. from San antonio, Posted: 06/02/2015

The property was dark and depressing. There was not one comfortable place to sit. Three remotes to try and figure out the TV. TV kept changing to green screen when channels were changed. No BBQ grill.

- G. Joseph H. from SMYRNA, Posted: 04/28/2015

Sorry to hear you weren't a big fan of the property. Your complaints are the 1st we've heard of this type. You're correct there are 3 remotes. One to the TV, one to the cable box and one to the DVD player and they're all labeled. Sounds like you may have been using the wrong one if you were getting a green screen. There is Bar B Q grill in the pool area. City code does not allow for grills to be used within 10' of any structure. Thank you for the feedback.

Satisfactory

- David S. from Murray, Posted: 03/20/2015

We chose to stay at this property because it offered pet friendly, good price & met our needs for our visit. Great having a full kitchen to make Thanksgiving dinner in! It was clean and had everything we needed to get week started. Some minor problems were sugar ants (We know it's TX), we used the spray provided & bought ant traps. No hangers in closet, used the rack over closet door for towels. Only 1 mirror & it's in the bathroom, a mirror in the bedroom on wall next to closet would be nice. The sofa bed mattress is very uncomfortable, but we actually brought futon mattress & put it on top. Sheets/pillows provided for the sofa bed but no blanket. Overall very nice place, worked out perfect for us as we were there just to visit our son who is stationed there. Proximity to everything was great!

- Anonymous from Flowery Branch, Posted: 12/01/2014

Thank you for the feedback on the property. We'll have to add some more hangers and a blanket to the unit, we did have those in there but those things end up missing from time to time. We appreciate the mirror suggestion too, we'll work on getting that added. Most all sofa beds can be tough for adults to sleep on, we'll check on it and see if we can add some additional padding to it. Thank you for the feedback, we'll use it to make stays for future guests more enjoyable.

My husband and I had a great weekend get away. Our stay at the condo was prefect. The place was clean, and nicely furnished. It had everything we could possibly need. The location is great. White Cap Beach is just a short drive away. We are planning to return very soon.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Costal Cottage. Just wish it could be "on the beach".

Pool and condo was very nice and quite please. Only downside was the fact that every remote in the condo was missing batteries.

- Mark A. from Mesquite, Posted: 06/24/2014

They have since been replaced. Sorry about that, I think the guests before you robbed us every last one. There are plenty in there now, should've let us know during your stay and we would've brought them right over.

We were originally booked to stay in another unit at another site. The fee in unit 606 fit our budget and the accommodations met our standards. The only thing we might have wanted improved were to have brighter bulbs in the ceiling lamps. We were in Corpus mainly for bird watching which turned out to be very fruitful. We would recommend Padre Island Escapes to friends.

- Donald M. from Marshalltown, Posted: 04/16/2014

This was the perfect place for our little family! Well-stocked, clean, beautifully decorated and very spacious for a 1 bedroom. With kids it's so nice to be able to stay in and cook rather than going out for every meal. Better price than the hotels too! Can't wait to come back in the summer!!!

- Anonymous from Corpus Christi, Posted: 12/06/2013

everything was great, only no cooking pans or utensils to prepare meals

- Armando A. from San Antonio, Posted: 11/13/2013

After I saw this review posted I had to go double check for pots and pans are in the fold-out cabinet to the right of the stove and all the utensils are in the 2nd drawer to the left of the stove. Sorry if they were hard to find.

We had a lovely stay - a very nice place. My only complaint is that the website advertised "Beach View". Only from the roof! Otherwise I was very happy with the rental.

- Amy S. from Johnson City, Posted: 09/11/2013

Glad you and your family enjoyed your stay. Not sure where you saw "Beach view" advertised, we do advertise the property as "Close to the Beach" (it's 1/2 a mile away) but in no way does it have a "Beach for the confusion. Thanks for staying with us, we hope to see again in the future!

It was very nice. My son loved the pool and the beach access was just a few blocks away. The property was also very nice and spacious. We had no electricity for about 8hrs one of the days but the owner was very nice and fixed the problem as quick as he could. I would recommend this property to others.

We came to Corpus for a water convention. We don't like staying at the places that are set up by the Association and typically stay at a Bed and Breakfast.
