This was a great unit to stay in with a wonderful view. The living room was very nice with enough seating for everyone to be comfortable.

- Brenda S. from Arlington, Posted: 08/31/2023

Overall it was fine. Never been to the area Prior too this visit, and really wanted to be in South Padre Island. Next time hopefully we can find a reasonably priced place in South Padre like this one.

Very spacious accommodation nice balcony overlooking the bay, nice neighborhood, clean beds however A/C vents did not work in bedrooms so very hot in the secondary bedrooms had to move to living room sofa bed to get some sleep master bedroom was ok. Well equipped kitchen however dishwasher was dirty , with some red liquid inside, lack of washer dryer made it difficult for large family.

I like this rental, especially the location on the water and the garage storage. Padre Escapes was a good manager and made it easy to access the house. The only minor issue was that the upstairs rooms didn't cool off enough at night (but the outside temp was about 100 degrees). On the last night, we lost power at 4am and had to get up to see if other homes were out, too. Padre Escapes was very responsive when I called the emergency#. They let me know it was a wide power outage, not just my unit. It came back on at 4:30am, so we didn't lose any refrigerated items, but it was pretty hot the next day while we packed. Overall, this trip was very pleasant. I'd recommend a dedicated grill for this unit, since the only one was 3 houses away.

- Wayne G. from Austin, Posted: 07/19/2022

We are happy to hear you enjoyed your unit and had a great stay with Padre Escapes. We apologize for this rare and unforeseen issue that occurred during your stay.

For the price it was sub standard. The place was clean, but the condition is in no way worth the price. The pool across the street is in need of repair and was dirty, they stairs leading to the 2nd floor had a broken 4th stair going up, they offered nothing to welcome you to the unit, the location was fine, but would definitely choose a different location if I were to spend thia price again. I was a little let down by the condition on the place. You can tell they upgraded the furnishings, but the moding is coming away from the tub in the bathroom and had mold behind it along with the tub not being very clean upon arrival.

The Condo was nice, clean, and updated, with a great location; HOWEVER... the AC basically did not work in the 2 back bedrooms. The lowest setting on the thermostat was 72 and master and living room would get cold but the back rooms were probably closer to 80. it was un-sleep-able, and part of our group had to sleep in the living room because the back would never cool down. This put a damper on the living arrangements as we booked a 3br condo because we needed 3 beds and didn't want to use a fold out couch or sleep in the living room. We were very disappointed about this, and would not recommend this unit to anyone that needs more than 1 bedroom until this issue has been resolved.

- Kyle J. from FORT WORTH, Posted: 08/16/2021

We apologize for the inconvenience of the AC but we do appreciate your feedback. The thermostat will be changed out and we will work on addressing the heat in those back bedrooms.

Super nice condo. Plenty of room for everyone. Beautiful views and a plus that we could fish right there, even though we didn’t catch much haha. I would definitely recommend anyone to stay here.

- John M. from Humble, Posted: 07/18/2021

Everything was great. Rooms were clean and there were no surprises. Sometimes you view a home online and once you arrive it looks different. This home was not the case, everything was perfect for our weekend getaway.

The only thing I did notice was that one of the rooms, the AC would not cool. After a day in the sun, the AC is much needed to rest. I checked the vent to ensure it was open however it still not cool the room. There was an oscillating fan which is what we used at night.

- Dulce T. from Austin, Posted: 07/13/2021

Glad you enjoyed the unit! I will relay the mentioned items to our maintenance department! Thank you.

This condo has a great view; sunset, water, bridge. Everything well stocked. The kitchen is small and the pans are kind of old. But we had a great time.

Our stay was awesome! The only reason I gave four stars was the parking. Once we put our boat in we had to park our truck and trailer on the street.

We stayed here for our annual summer beach trip and it was great! It was very clean and had a great fishing spot right outside for the kids to fish as long as they wanted. Unit had everything you would need to cook meals if you wanted and rooms were pretty spacious only drawback was that the 2nd bathroom was not in the master bedroom it was in one of the other rooms with the smaller bed which was kinda strange but overall we had a awesome stay would definitely come back! Another plus was there were boogie boards in the garage for kids to use at the beach and a washer and dryer for your use.

When we arrived the unit was very clean. In the kitchen was a welcome package full of treats and beach accessories- loved it!! The beds were comfortable and the A/C was ran nice and cold. The location was great-access downstairs to fishing, beach was minutes away, dining and grocery was within minutes from the unit. The only negative was no washer/dryer within the unit. Other than that great place- would stay here again.

The condo I rented as I stated was a nice place, great view and quiet location. Has a nice dock for use (one of the few). It was ready for a 6 wk occupancy except for 1 small problem that was taken care of quickly. The only downside is it has no wi-fi and we do plan on renting again I would buy wi-fi for 8 weeks. It's my understanding the condo is for sale and hopefully a new owner would put in wi-fi. The cable selection is top notch for those cold Tx days watching TV. Padre Escapes who coordinate the rental is first class. They'll take care of whatever you need. The condo allows pets and for me this is a deal breaker on other rentals as I will not rent anything (inc a hotel room) where I can't bring my dog. You pay a few bucks more ($325 for the 6 weeks)but to me it is worth it.

So understanding I didn't expect the Ritz (where I have stayed) or the Motel 6 (where I haven't) Starting w/ 5, I deduct 1/2 pt for no wi-fi, 1/4 pt for the problem that the cleaning crew should have told Padre Escapes about (which was taken care of quickly), and 1/4 pt for a really ****** cheap charcoal bbq, (most units had none I would deduct 1/2 pt for that), add 1/2 pt for allowing dogs and 1/4 pt for the occasional cigar OUTSIDE on the very nice deck It gets a 4.75/5 and I would rent it again.

We really enjoyed the place and the set-up of the condo. But we learnt that the pool was not heated even though that was one of the things I had asked specifically about. The pool was even closed on Thanksgiving day. The next day I found out that the pump wasn't working but we were welcome to swim thankfully. Very chilly though! The patios were a mess when we arrived so we had to contact Padre Escapes. They sent over people to clean it up. It should have been taken care of before arrival. The last complaint is that the one dock that was usable had a 'private dock' sign on it. (There was a fight over a dock at some neighbors.)

- Anonymous from Bartlesville, Posted: 12/11/2017

AS OF APRIL 2021 THIS PROPERTY IS UNDER NEW OWNERSHIP AND HAS BEEN BEAUTIFULLY UPDATED THROUGHOUT. The pool here is not heated. There was roof repair going on that we were not made aware of otherwise we would've had the patio cleared off. We also offered you to move to another property but you chose to stay in those. Thank you for your feedback.

Overall it was very nice. I do recommend having fire ants and sugar ants removed from the property and the inside of the condo. The couches also has dirt and hair inside the cushions.

We spent two months this winter here and really enjoyed it. The furniture and all was as depicted in the photos - and the view was even better than pictures! There were a few minor maintenance items that needed attending, and they were taken care if quickly and professionally. We are looking forward to making it three months next year at this same great spot!

- Jerry H. from Eagan, Posted: 03/11/2016

Location was ideal and fishing off the dock was good. The condo itself was clean however we noticed several spiders and bugs around the bedrooms. we had a two individuals come and work on the patio outside our first full day and it was accessible while they worked on it. We were not told of them coming and it didnt allow us to fully enjoy our time on the outside patio. Beds were not that comfortable and the room had no wifi.

Found this property on VRBO and rented because of the location. We were down to fish(have a boat) so the fact that it is on the water is great. The property looked nice in the pics online, but overall the property needs an update(old carpet, repainted walls). We also had some issues during our stay: they were doing work on the patios and had tools and lumber everywhere when we got there, we called and they sent workers over to clean up and end up being there for two hours, then because of the people coming in and out the A/C couldn't catch up so the first night was hot. Other small things that did not work included the lights in the kitchen and living room and almost every channel on the TV was so fuzzy you could not see it. We enjoyed our stay, but this is one of the priciest in this complex and we expected a little more.
