This was my second stay with El Constante and love the location. I have been pleased with the booking process and office staff. Check in was great and condo location was perfect. Here’s what I was disappointed in with the condition of the condo, first walking in there was strong smell of mold and just musty, but I put that as to the condo not being used and lack of circulation, but it might help to run the air conditioning before guests arrive. The bathroom was pretty gross, it didn’t look like it had been thoroughly cleaned. The sink, shower didn’t look like they were cleaned and had to wear my flip flops while I showered and there was feces stuck to the toilet bowl. The kitchen sink was also very dirty and didn’t look like it had been cleaned, the coffee maker had a rusted heating plate and the refrigerator looked like it had food all over it and dishes in cupboard had food still on them.I did bring my own sanitizing and cleaning items because of COVID, but would have expected extra care and attention had been put into the condo’s cleanliness because of covid. Remote was broken and taped prior, but still had trouble using it. I was also woken up on my second day at about 6:30 am to a lot of scratching within the walls/ceiling. I’m not sure if anyone staying above me had a dog and that may have been a reason for the noise or there are rodents. Everything else was fine, I didn’t spend a lot of time in the condo, so I just let it go for the moment. Will I stay here again? Sure, but if the condition and cleanliness of the condo are like they were this last visit, then there will be a problem and request for a cleaner condo. I don’t see the purpose of charging a cleaning fee when the condo isn’t cleaned and presentable. You may want to also suggest to it’s owner that the bedskirt needs to be replaced, not a great impression when it looks dirty and ripped. I didn’t mention it to the office bec

The condo was clean and neat, it was great. However i have to mention that
there was too much light coming in from both the front, and from the bedroom. Also, on our last night there was some kind of drinking party going on in the parking lot,i was worried about my vehicle,skateboarding between the cars and pickup's.

We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay with us overall. We will look into the windows and exterior lighting and see if additional drapes are needed, thank you for the recommendation. We apologize about the noise disturbance during your stay, please let our front office know next time so we can address this with the appropriate party. Hope to see back soon!

Very relaxing, we loved the modern updates. We could tell that the owner of this unit really cares about their investment. I would select this unit again. Give the owners of 211 some style advice.

Thank you so much for the 5 star review! We have shared this with the owner and they are thrilled to hear you enjoyed their unit. We look forward to hosting you again next year!

We had the best time! The location was ideal, condo was clean and ready early! We made a promise to come back!!

My cousin and I had a great stay in #133 except for two situations. We had loud and thunderous upstairs neighbors all week and one day at the pool a very discourteous group of folks playing distasteful and loud music. I do not agree with Padre Escapes method (sending a text) of resolving issues. It is far too easy to ignore a text. Other than these isolated incidents, I would recommend El Constante. The location is perfect! It is close to good restaurants and shopping and an excellent IGA. It is not far from Port A or Corpus Christi and the clean beach is at your doorstep.

We have security scheduled nightly during peak season and will follow up with them to ensure these noise issues get addressed in a more timely manner. Thank you for your feedback and we hope to see you again.

We were presently surprised with our last minute rental. The location was beautiful, the staff was friendly, and the condo was updated and clean. We enjoyed our stay so much we booked an extra night!

- Lauren B. from Huntsville , Posted: 07/12/2021

We are glad you enjoyed our property and got to spend an extra day with us! Hope to see you again soon.

Everything about this property was perfect.

Visit was good...too much rain.

We are glad you enjoyed your stay overall. Unfortunately, we do not have any control over the weather but we hope to see you again soon.

My daughter and I had a great time! Only thing I would change is providing hand sanitizer at the gates to the pool since guests have to touch the keypads (COVID19 time). Otherwise, very clean and in great shape!

this exactly what i needed to enjoy my birthday & get away to relax for myself, son, and Mom. The room was very nice & i absolutely loved being so close to the beach.

- Yvonne V. from SAN ANTONIO, Posted: 05/11/2020

Very nicely decorated, comfortable, clean and updated apartment. The corner location creates a bolt of seclusion and privacy which is nice. Easy access to the parking lot and pool. The only drawback is that it is on the lower level and as such, there can be a lot of disturbance from the unit above.

El Constante has been a refuge for me and my family for over 17 years. It is amazing to see the upgrades in progress. Our one-bedroom unit was perfect. The bathroom upgrade was the most dramatic. Wonderful walk-in shower. Everything else was perfect. I can't wait to come and stay for more than 5 nights!!! Well done, Padre Escapes.

We went on vacation to celebrate our family adoption and I had asked if it was possible to put a congratulations sign up and they said they would note it that way they could put the sign before we got there and they didn’t was upsetting because we went so we could celebrate our adoption

Location and beach access was great.

- Anonymous from San Antonio, Posted: 06/25/2019

The AC was totally broken when we arrived and the maintenance crew took 2 hours to fix it. It should have been tested before guests arrived....
It was disappointing that the couch did not turn into a bed.
The blow up bed was NOT a great substitute for this. We were told that it was a sofa bed when we booked it. We did not like being stuck in a dark corner....were told it opened on to the pool...that was not true.
would not stay in that unt again The king bed was nice as was the shower.

- Robert J. from Austin, Posted: 05/21/2019

We apologize for any confusion but this property does only sleep 3 guests and is not advertised as having a sofa bed. The property is just off the pool. We do check the AC as well as wifi, TVs and much more prior to a guest's arrival. Sometimes issues just happen between the time we inspect and the guest arrives. We apologize for any inconvenience you experienced but we do appreciate your feedback.

Condo was exactly as described. Very clean and spacious for 2 people. Complex was very active but not to noisy. Pool is in relatively close proximity to the unit but the way it is situated in the building you did not have any noise. Right on the beach so that was awesome. You definitely rent again!

- Andrea S. , Posted: 04/23/2019

Had a great experience. Staff was great and condo was going again next yr.

We had a wonderful, relaxing time.

El Constante is a very comfortable, and secure place to stay on Padre Island. Room is modern and clean.

- Stephen B. from San Antonio, Posted: 08/22/2018

Always enjoy my stay @El Constante but it never fails we get horse racing above us (up & down all night).

- Charles D. from San Antonio, Posted: 08/16/2018

We absolutely love coming here. Our poolside room is our favorite. Thanks to the staff for making it happen. Can’t wait for our next trip

- Kelly B. from Flatonia, Posted: 07/20/2018

I took my daughter for the weekend and we had a blast. Our unit was updated, clean and very comfortable. We also really enjoyed the pool and the fact that it was only steps to the beach! My only (very small) complaint was that they were late getting the pool cleaned each morning which meant we had to wait to swim. My daughter is four so swimming was on the agenda from sun up to sun down. But again, such a small thing. Our stay was wonderful and we will return.

- Miranda F. from Liberty Hill, Posted: 07/17/2018

Besides the water being turned off for a short time on 2 separate days (with no warning) and a herd of elephants in the unit above, the stay was great. The location on the beach was great and made for easy morning/evening walks. I alao liked that the actual unit was tucked away in a corner so the pool noise was kept at a minimum. The bed was comfy and the decor was as pictured. I would definitely recommend and book this unit again.

- Cynthia S. from White Settlement, Posted: 07/04/2018

The condo was nice and updated. The only thing that was not true in regards to the description of the property was that it said it was a "pool view" condo. This condo doesn't have a view of the pool when you look out the window. You look out to another unit.

The overall experience was very good.

- Dan D. from WEATHERFORD, Posted: 03/20/2018

Very comfortable, quiet accommodations. Great location right on the beach. A bit far from town if you wanted to go to the city.

- Mark G. from Paris, Posted: 03/20/2018

The space was perfect. The condo was updated. The unit location was across from the laundry, bedroom window was at the community grill area.... Some things you can't change. No screen in the window to allow fresh air in & no ice cube trays. Other than that, it was great.

- Anonymous from canton, Posted: 02/26/2018

Thank you for the feedback. We'll work with the owner on getting those additions to the property. We look forward to having you back.

For nearly 10 years we have been going to your location, but after hearing about the new reservation and charging policy - we are already looking for a new place to stay. I think the new charging of paying yourselves two weeks in full before the arrival is so unfair. My way of business is paying once service are rendered. So many events can happen like car problems or health problems and you guys charging the full amount two weeks prior is so frustrating. Not very helpful for hard working Americans !

- Jesse M. , Posted: 07/24/2017

Thank you for your feedback. We have a responsibility to the owners as well as the guests. Many vacation rentals require payment in full 30 days out. 14 days out seems reasonable to both the owners and guests. Thank you for your feedback, we hope you change your mind and come back to see us again.

It was awesome smooth transition. No problems

- Frank M. from Cedar Park, Posted: 07/23/2017

We rented their meeting room for my daughter's graduation party. We finished up late and decided to stay the night. The staff was great throughout the entire experience. They were able to rent us a room at the last minute. It was clean, well furnished (coastal decor) and very comfortable. The shower was awesome!They currently have some construction going on, but it was not an issue. I highly recommend this place!
