El Constante 210

We booked in for 5 nights. A/C was not working upstairs so they brought in room units. It was still hot. Found bed bugs that night which is totally unacceptable. On-site management was not helpful and didn't really show concern. We finally got moved to another unit 211 the next day. It was okay and we enjoyed the rest of our stay. Should have been moved the first day when unit 210 was not livable.

I love the location. This was my second time to this location. I would like a more updated unit. There were some things that I didn't like, ie the tub slow draining broken dining chairs, broken shades. However, all and all super friendly staff.

Thanks for the feedback, the owner is working on some updating. Hope we see you back again soon.

It was an incredible experience. The condo was very clean, right in front of the beach.

Unit 210 is a great location and is quite comfortable (sofa bed is not super comfy but will do for kids/teens). We would definitely stay here again! The description was accurate and the property was clean. It's not new, by any means, but has been well maintained. We were very satisfied with our stay. A recommendation would be to change the services provided: with the cleaning fee charged, it would seem reasonable that guests could only bag the garbage and not also have to haul it down to the dumpster. This is a small concession that would make the last moments on site a little easier.

The decor was noted to be more outdated in person than the pictures on the website. There was paper noted under the ceiling fan fixture downstairs. The carpet on the stairs had sand noted on arrival. The property stated they were in the process of updating the outside.


Positives-on the beach and plenty of room in the condo. Front desk personnel friendly.

As always room was clean. Friendly staff that's why we've been coming here since '10. Great beach area!

Power outage was an inconvenience. Refrigerator was not clean

Not a lot we can do about an island-wide power outage but we do apologize for the inconvenience. We will be sure to address housekeeping issues too.

El Constante has been our go-to condo for North Padre since we were kids. It is still a wonderful place to stay and the perfect location on the beach. The staff is friendly and extremely helpful. The only issue is that you may need to make sure to wash the dishes and the silverware before using them the first time. The previous renters may not have cleaned them well. But other than that it was great! We are returning next year!

I stayed 3 months in 210, very comfortable, great view, wonderful warm pool for the winter months. The staff and workers from Padre Escapes were very helpful and professional. There were a few minor maintenance issues ( loose deck rail, stove burner not working and slow internet) all problems ,except internet were promptly repaired. They are resolving the Internet problem with new equipment and it should be much better when that is finished. Hope to come again next year.

Home away from home. Friendly staff, clean spacious room,perfect spot on the beach!

Rooms have always been comfortable and clean. Kitchen is decently equipped. Only one discomfort of having to run box fans to cool upstairs. But nothing intolerable. Staff is courteous. Pool is sweet!

We've been coming to El Constante for years. The staff always went above and beyond making the almost $300/night for a two bedroom well worth it. The beach was private and cleaned of seaweed and they rented boogie boards and other water toys on the beach. One time we checked in around 9 or 10 pm, and my friend was pregnant and the bed was way too hard for her. They not only moved us to a different room around 11pm, they physically helped us move. Now, with this brand new management, they are only there until 7pm and not a moment later. The power went out on the entire island. Not their fault obviously, but when it came back on only one of the three buildings had power. Luckily it was our building that had power. But our neighbor who did not have power called the emergency line and the lady hung up on her when she tried to explain that the power was back on for everyone else. Hardly anyone was staying at El Constante. They should have moved them to the building with power immediately because it was so hot that a heat advisory had been issued. Also, the beach is now public and full of trucks and trash. Also, our DVD player did not work, though they replaced it the last day. The ladies at the front desk were very kind. But it irritates us that we pay the same amount of money for less service and a ****** beach. If it was $200 per night, it would be worth the service and the public beach. We may as well pay for two rooms at the Holiday Inn and get daily cleaning service.

Thank you for your feedback. We have taken over management at the complex since May 1st but the same staff is still in place there. The beach there has not ever been private. Under the Texas Open Beaches Act "the public has the free and unrestricted right to access Texas beaches", this has been in place since 1959. The power was out for some time and did come back on at some complexes and buildings before it came on at others. The phones did not work because the power was out, that's why it kept hanging up on them.
