This condo was perfect for our family. Place was very clean and the ocean view is so relaxing. Love all the upgrades in this unit including kitchen, master bath and hardwood flooring. Definitely one of the nicest units at Gulfstream! Thank you for sharing your place with us. Would love to go back sometime :)

Both mattresses in each bedroom was horrible! Worst night sleep. They need to be replaced badly. Shower door in master bathroom didn’t close right. Toilet in guest bathroom ran. Other than that, too many huge decor and furniture which shows clutter. Sofa bed metal that folds up is broken too. Water pressure was low.

Everything was as advertised. The location couldn't be better if you were all about being on the beach. Would stay here again.

The overall experience was very good. The unit is beautiful, but we did have some issues. Several dirty plates and bowls were in the cabinets. What was there was very hard so we soaked then scrubbed them. Then put everything through the dishwasher since we were kind of grossed out. Contacted Padre Escapes and got extra dishwasher soaps since we had to do this. They were really responsive. Kitchen had two great knives but glad we brought our own flex cutting board. Didn't cook hot food so can't speak to utensil or cookware quality. The refrigerator was fabulous but fancy. For those with older models, you must figure out the new cool door functionality and that the water and ice maker have overlapping levers, but wonderful features once you do. The bathrooms look nice, but both shower doors were very old and had a lot of rust. The standup shower door stuck and was difficult to close and the fiberglass liner was notably old as was the bathtub with a large yellow ring around the entire bottom. Both shower heads were very low so even a 5'6" person couldn't comfortably get their head under them. Bathroom updates were minimal while other units have new tiled showers and fixtures. And the front bath didn't have a convenient electric outlet at the sink but in the wall behind you, so I had to charge my toothbrush on the nightstand. Minor inconvenience but an inconvenience nonetheless. Living room furniture was comfortable, but dining room chair support was lacking so the frame dug into your thighs so we ate at the cocktail table. Mattresses good and linens nice.
Beach chairs were an unexpected bonus, but the beach umbrella was broken which we didn't find out until hauling it to the beach, so bring extra sunscreen. You can't beat the location and views. If the bath and showers were fixed up, this would be an A unit, but until then I'll have to go with a B. Really enjoyed the National Seashore, local Scuttlebutt's, and great beach walks.

Great location. Condo was nice. Bathtub could use updating and cleaned on outside where grout is.
We enjoyed our few days of downtime. Spacious & comfortable.

Checkin was a breeze. Room was a little smaller than it appears and the furniture needs a little updating. Shower was small and also could use an update. But overall the proximity to the beach made up for it. Staff and maintenance are friendly and the grounds and pool area were spotless. Enjoyed our time.
- Greg S. from Glen Carbon, Posted: 06/03/2022
Thank you for your feedback. We will certainly consider your feedback and pass it along to the correct department. Happy to hear the staff was pleasant and you enjoyed the pool area! We hope to see you on your next visit!

Amazing location!!! Loved the view from the unit and the balcony. A very comfortable stay with my 5 kids. Plenty of room for everyone. It would be nice to seat 6 at the dining Table.
- Lara L. from San Jose, Posted: 04/17/2022
This location is a fan fave! We are happy to know you enjoyed it as well. We will look into the dining chairs. Thank you and we hope to host you again!

We had a great time, there for about three months. Padre escapes people are great, Emily and Amber are great, treat you like family. Gulf Stream was disappointing.
- Jerry W. from Bolivar, Posted: 03/17/2022
Mr. Walker, it was an honor getting to know you while you visited our beautiful island! Padre Escapes takes great pride in what we do and I'm glad we left a good impression ! Please feel free to email any details you would like to discuss about the disappointment you had with Gulf-stream and we will make every effort to address what we can. Thank you and we hope to host you on your next visit.

Very relaxing and comfortable. Coffee while sitting on the balcony less than 100’ off of the sand cannot be beat.
- Gary R. from GRAPEVINE, Posted: 10/23/2021
Coffee and the Gulfstream view does make for a relaxing stay! We are glad you were able to enjoy your fall Getaway and we look forward to hosting another "escape" .

The condo is beautifully decorated with comfortable furniture and beds. Our view of the Gulf of Mexico was amazing! The pool, hot tub and outdoor areas are lovely and the staff is friendly and helpful. We had a wonderful stay. My ONLY complaint is the unit could have been cleaner. The kitchen needed a deep cleaning. We will stay here again!
- Marta K. from Buda, Posted: 09/25/2021
We are thrilled to hear you had the best vacation! That ocean view is truly amazing! We apologize about the cleaning issues, I will be notifying the housekeeping supervisor of your feedback. Thank you and we look forward to hosting you again.

Great location. Amenities poor. Had to ask fo toilet tissue—none provided after initial allotment. Same with towels
- Beverly V. from San Antonio, Posted: 08/15/2021
The location is fabulous and the views are amazing! As stated in the rental agreement, we do only provide a starter pack of amenities for guest to give them an opportunity to shop. We look forward to hosting another awesome stay.

Beautiful place right on the beach
We had a great time at this beautiful condo. The inside was nicely remodeled and had everything we needed for cooking during our stay. It overseas the beach, has a beautiful sunrise view and allowed us to claim a place on the beach before others arrived. When the kids got tired of the beach they would go play in the swimming pool. We had friends over and used the outdoor grills on property for as nice cook out. Our stay was great and we highly recommend this place for families or for couples or groups.

We loved the condo. Very modern and updated. It included all the essentials we needed for our stay. Would have liked a larger bed in the master, but it was comfy. Gulf Stream itself was very nice. We loved the pool, hot tub, location, easy beach access. It rained through out our stay, which was very sad, but at least we had a nice condo to stay in and a lovely balcony to watch the waves from.

Rental nice and on the beach. Beach covered up with people and vehicles.
- Larry H. from Lubbock, Posted: 06/30/2021
Thank you for your feedback. We love the location of this unit as well! WE hope to see you soon!

Only drawback was the sliding door for the shower as it was very difficult to open and close. The electricity also went out for about four hours on our first night making it difficult to get sleep. It was a beautifully decorated property with direct access to the beach! Loved waking up to the ocean.
- Jessica B. from Copperas Cove, Posted: 06/07/2021
You can't beat waking up to the ocean! Thank you for the feedback. Please note in the future to relay any maintenance issues so we may address them during your stay. Thank you.

Nice unit! Great bargain!
We enjoyed a 2-day & night stay in this very nicely furnished, immaculately clean condo, just a short walk to the beach— but we also enjoyed just relaxing inside with the sliding barn doors open all the way providing a panoramic view of the beach, kite-surfers, joggers and gorgeous sunrise and full moon! It had everything we needed except wine glasses (which unfortunately must have been taken by a prior guest), and new ones were delivered soon after calling the ph# provided. Check-in and check-out were very efficient—by text & email, and staff was friendly and responsive. This place was a bargain compared to other units we’ve rented. We will definitely return again!

Loved it!
This condo was beautifully decorated, fully equipped, and had an amazing beach front view! We spent 3 days here and the beach was amazing, as well as the condo pool and hot tub. Incredibly easy access to the beach, great condo amenities, and really good local restaurants! I will definitely be renting here again soon.
- Anonymous U , Posted: 05/12/2021
Great location, windows that kept the noise of obnoxious vacationers and beachgoers out, nicely furnished, updated appliances. However, several of the small appliances (toaster, etc) were not working and some basic cooking items were missing (more than one skillet, cutting board, etc). Overall, excellent place and our stay was pleasant.
- Michele H. from SAN ANTONIO, Posted: 04/15/2021
Glad you had a great time. Please note in the future to please give us a call about items that are not functioning so we can get them replaced during your stay. We hope to see you soon!

We enjoyed our stay and hope to return when the weather is warmer. The only complaint we had is that the chairs on the balcony are too short! When you sit in them, your view is of the railing...not of the water. Taller chairs would be a great addition. : ) Also the right end of the balcony rail was broken and not attached to the front.
Otherwise, super great experience. Clean, comfortable and nice decorations.
