El Constante 118

Absolutely awesome. Clean room, all the needed appliances, and bonus, around the corner was Whitecaps Beach. I would highly recommend this place and cannot wait to schedule my next trip!

You are always welcome to give us a call and we can assist you finding the perfect unit with a King size bed. We hope you enjoyed the beach location and still had a great time. hope to see you soon!

Overall the condo was clean, and sufficient, except for the bed.
The bed was not good; the mattress sags in the middle. My back ached every morning from sleeping in it. I told the office about sagging mattress.

- Lin C. from Richardson, Posted: 01/02/2022

We are happy to hear you like the condo! We have relayed the feedback about the mattress to the owner. Since then, he has placed a topper and is planning to replace it soon. Thank you and we look forward to hosting you again!

The front office people were very nice and helpful. However, the unit was low on basics. No shampoo or conditioner, no salt and pepper, or coffee. Those things are usually standard. The pull out couch is not great for sleeping.
Close to the beach though, so that was nice.

- Carrie S. from New Braunfels, Posted: 12/28/2021

Everything was great. We’ve stayed here before as well as other properties since 1977 and have never been disappointed in the area.

- Judi C. from Austin, Posted: 12/27/2021

Stayed for a month with my two little chihuahuas. It was so relaxing and nice to be so close to the beach. The on-site staff are fabulous and they take care of you. This condo was comfortable and had all the basic needs. I hope to return for another month in the Spring.

Wonderful location

We thank you for the kind words! Your review means a lot to us and lets us know we?re on the right track!

None of the 4 television worked...I called multiple times and none gave a satisfactory answer. There is no way we could be on the sun from 12 until 5 and there was nothing to do.
I am still waiting for a refund or a free night to compensate for all of this. I PAY 1600 DLLS!! and no television as if it was a cheap motel???

Our property was struck during a lightening storm and surged many of our cable boxes. We are working with Spectrum to fix this issue and apologize for the inconvenience. W will reach out to you directly, thank you for your feedback.

Thank you for choosing our property to spend your girls getaway! We appreciate you taking the time to leave us such a great review and look forward to seeing you again.

We enjoyed our stay. We have been visiting El Constante for about 25 years. We always enjoy it. Office staff is cordial. It seems silly that w3 check out at the office, and then also have to click a link, when we just checked out! Also, $10 if you don’t turn in the bracelets? Seems excessive.
It was clean, but the sink was full of water when we got there. Seemed odd.

- William B. from Buda, Posted: 08/20/2021

We will check on that sink, we apologize for that oversight. We are gad you enjoyed your stay with us and hope to see you back soon.

We had 14 family members celebrating our oldest one's birthday. We rented two 2-bedroom units and one 1-bedroom units. The weekend was perfect. The accomodations were very nice.

- Anonymous from Hutto, Posted: 07/15/2021

Happy birthday from all of us here at El Constante! Hope to see you again soon.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

Great location and a great stay. Will plan to come back. The only negative thing I can say is the mattress in the bedroom needs to be replaced immediately. It has a topper which is nice but the problem is that the mattress is worn in the middle and makes it very uncomfortable and you feel like you are always rolling into the center.

- Curtis G. from Liberty Hill , Posted: 07/13/2021

We will look into the bed, thank you for making us aware. Glad you enjoyed your time with us overall and looking forward to your next stay!

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

Fantastic property! I will say though, the bed needs a new mattress. That one is shot. I would have given all 5’s if the bed had been better.

- Gay E. from Bastrop, Posted: 06/18/2021

We will relay this to the owner, thank you for your feedback.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

The staff was welcoming and inviting, The rooms were nice and clean. We really enjoyed our stay. The only issue I had was the pool was not clean.

- Anonymous from Houston , Posted: 06/14/2021

We have since changed pool companies and have seen a major improvement in our water clarity. Thank you for the feedback and we hope to see you again soon.

Family wedding was a excellent experience at El Constante.

It was a pleasure to host your wedding party. Congratulations to the newly weds and we hope to see you all soon!

We stayed from Monday to Saturday. The staff is very accommodating. Right on tbe beach. We rented a cart and toured the beach and city. The primary bed is outdated. Sleep on the couch bed as the primary bed.

- Anonymous from Pflugerville, Posted: 05/17/2021

We are glad you enjoyed our awesome location and experienced our island by golf cart! We will look into that bed thank you for making us aware.

First we weren't contacted with the information to get into the condo until we were 15 minutes from our arrival time. Seems there was a text that was supposed to be sent that wasn't. This made for a stressful drive to the condo. Construction was happening on a whole section of condos next to us which wasn't disclosed when we booked it. This meant our walking path to the beach and pool was blocked and of course the noise of construction going on all day long and parking issues due to the workers being there. Also the refrigerator didn't work properly, fridge was freezing things and the freezer was defrosting and refreezing frequently.

- Jeff B. from Austin, Posted: 10/30/2020

On the property description in capital letters it says "-STARTING ON SEPTEMBER 8, 2020 AND LASTING UNTIL EARLY JANUARY 2021 OUR BEACHSIDE BUILDING (units 108-128 & 210-231) WILL BE UNDER CONSTRUCTION. CONSTRUCTION IS FACTORED INTO THE CURRENT PRICING; NO ADDITIONAL DISCOUNTS WILL BE APPLIED." There was a guest who checked out of the property the morning you checked in. To prevent any issues we do not send out the door code until the property has been cleaned, inspected and is ready for your arrival. We apologize for these inconveniences but we hope you were able to enjoy your stay.

Condo was a CONDO. Obviously built to be a truly livable space. Home away from home. Staff was EXCELLENT regarding COVID CLEANLINESS.

- Sarah P. from Austin, Posted: 10/11/2020

Everything was clean in our one bedroom. Only complaint was the people upstairs had a kid that stomped around constantly. The pool wasn’t as clean as could have been.

- Jean R. from Cleburne, Posted: 10/02/2020

What we needed with all going on and needing to enjoy Time away! Felt like home!

- Armando G. from New Braunfels, Posted: 08/02/2020

Bed in was really uncomfortable, pull out sofa-bed was also really bad. Sink in bathroom was slow draining. Other than that it was alright.

- Anonymous from Round Rock, Posted: 07/28/2020

We loved our stay at El Constante 118. The beachfront location is amazing! Felt very safe at the condo complex when walking my dogs during the day or evening. The part of the beach that is in front of the condo is beautiful. My family loved that there is a jetty close by to fish off on. Very nice complex and the condo itself was very clean and had everything we needed. The kids enjoyed the pool too. The only thing I would suggest is to fix the bathroom sink as it would not drain very well at all. Also the bathroom fan did not work and the sleeper sofa mattress was very uncomfortable. Other than those 3 things, we really enjoyed our stay in #118 and would stay here again. Thank you Padre Escapes!!

- Erinn M. from Arlington, Posted: 07/16/2020

We have stayed here several times and we always LOVE it!!

- Anonymous from Fort Worth, Posted: 06/24/2020

We enjoyed our stay. The unit was just as advertised. It was clean, comfortable, and conveniently located to the beach, Padre Island National Seashore, and fishing. The pool in the condo complex was also clean and well maintained.

- Jeff H. from Kingsland, Posted: 07/28/2019

Had a very good time! Have stayed at these condo’s for the last 15 years.

- Sandy S. from San Antonio, Posted: 06/11/2019

Our condo was clean and stocked with everything that we needed. We couldn't have asked for a better location. We will be back!

- Lynn T. from Austin, Posted: 05/15/2019

Great location. Enjoyed our visit.

- Jeannette W. from San Antonio, Posted: 09/30/2018

We enjoyed our stay. It would be helpful to have blankets for the pull out couch since we had 4 in our room.

- Anonymous from New Braunfels, Posted: 07/27/2018

Always look forward to stay here every summer! Very nice place along with a very nice staff!!!

- samuel c. from san antonio, Posted: 06/29/2018

I stayed in 118 and found it comfortable for my needs. All appliances were clean and in good condition.

- Joan G. from Dubuque, Posted: 03/29/2018

Overall the experience was very good.
Pros: Right on the Beach! Able to pull right up to door for loading / unloading. Nice pool/hot tub.
Cons: The bathroom exhaust fan desperately needs replacing, it sounds like it is about to explode.
We had some inconvenience due to repairs to the unit above us. One day there was a lot of drywall debris and nails that did not get cleaned up by the repair crew. After a call, the El Constante staff cleaned it up quickly. Two other days we had water dripping down on our door from the balcony above.

- John B. from Leander, Posted: 12/02/2017

We were in #118 at el Constante and it was great. First of all the staff at Padre Escapes were great. We rescheduled our trip due to hurricane Harvey. They were fabulous every step of the way. Upon checking in the girl at the front desk was very friendly and informative. Our condo was not affected by the hurricane so all was good within the unit. Cold air conditioning was a necessity for my husband and it was on point. Bath towels are supplied however we brought our own and I recommend doing that. Everything in the unit was clean and tidy. We will definitely come again.
A special thanks to Justin at Padre Escapes! He is awesome

- LISA K. from San Antonio, Posted: 09/30/2017

Words can't describe how wonderful it was to stay here. My wife and 17 year old daughter also enjoyed our stay. We highly recommend Condo 118. We checked in Saturday, August 12th and self checked out Thursday, August 17th. We loved everything about 118! We of course slept in the room on the KingSizeBed & our teenager slept on the pullout couch. AC was wonderfully cold! Pool was was really nice and refreshing after a day on the beach. Bummed that the TV's weren't smart TV's but enjoyed Spectrum Cable on both TV's. Wifi wasn't very strong so we just didn't use it. Plenty of pots, pans, untensils, bowls, plates and plasticware. Overall nicely stocked.
