Pathway to the Sea T834

We had a great time. The house was walking distance to the beach. We loved it! The pictures of the house really don't do it justice. If you have a chance you've got to rent this house. Ya'll will love it!

We have booked through Padre Escapes for 4 summers now, and stayed at Pathway to the Sea in a different unit last summer. This stay did not met the mark as our previous stays did.

Cons:
Very disappointed that there was no access to the garage - I wish that was made more obvious. The second and third floors had SEVERAL dips (you could feel the give in the dips) in the floor that were a bit concerning. The first floor would be extremely cold, with the top floor being uncomfortably hot. The upstairs master bathroom was the HOTTEST! The exhaust fan was COVERED in dust, which I think didn't help the situation. Some of the dishes in the kitchen had been put away, but were OBVIOUSLY not clean (as in still had liquid in a pitcher, brown sticky stuff, stains on cups...).

Pros:
Very spacious kitchen/living area. So so so close to the beach with great views from all of the balconies. Nice pool and grilling area. TVs in all rooms.

We will definitely come back to Pathway to the Sea again next summer, but will not be staying in this particular unit.

T834 was amazing, we had an excellent time, and it was a short walk to the beach. The condo was clean, convenient and had tons of space for everyone. The only thing that would keep us from renting again is the lack of a garage.

This place was nice, it is not as roomy as it seems. Also the amount of stairs you have to climb is ridiculous. I would not rent this place again. Also the garage is not accessible, wish this was stated up front.

- Luis F. from corpus christi , Posted: 06/08/2023

Thank you for your review and feedback, Luis. We apologize that you had to contend with the stairs. We try very hard to make the listings as transparent as possible and do our best to be sure photos of the stairs are included. We value your customer loyalty very much. We hope that you'll give us a call to book over the phone for your next stay. This way, one of our knowledgeable team members can help to create a more tailored experience in the future.

The rental is in the IDEAL location with quick walking distance to the beach. Plenty of on-site parking and a really nice pool area with two shallow spots for the little kids and a shower for rinsing off sand.

Plenty of eating space and lounging space. The rooms were great.

The only things that were not ideal:
The bedside lamps in the upstairs bedrooms did not all work. One lamp was missing the piece that turns it on. The other rooms lamp didn’t work at all. And there is a sugar ant problem, we had to buy bug spray.

Other than that we had a great time and would rent this home again!

Overall the place was excellent. The only issue I had was steaming movies in the master bedroom.

This is our second time renting, or should I say attempting to rent from padre escapes, both leading to a terrible vacation. The first time they canceled our summer reservation two days before our arrival leaving us scrambling to find other accommodations. We booked through them again even though we knew better. This time two days into our vacation the refrigerator quit working spoiling $400 worth of groceries. We called they promised to send someone out, after about three hours the fridge started working again, so we went back to the store and bought groceries again. Later that night it stopped working again, spoiling those groceries along with breast milk for my granddaughter. We spoke to the rental agency again they sent someone out with a mini fridge. We packed the mini fridge with our bare essentials, breast milk and regular milk for the babies. Nothing else fit. The next day we decided to leave because nothing was being done to fix the big fridge. Leaving us without food to cook. They refunded us the days we were supposed to stay but not the days we were there without a fridge. They did reimburse us for the two loads of groceries that spoiled. With all that in mind we will not be renting from them again. The rental was nice, beds were squeaky and uncomfortable. Rooms were small. Floor was still dirty, my grandsons feet were black from walking on the floor. For the same price you can rent something much nicer just down the street.

We loved this condo. It was spacious and had all of the extras that we needed. It was so close to the beach and had great views!

What a perfect spot to be at. A short walk to the beach and loved having the doors open to listen to the waves.

- Marcy M. from Addison, Posted: 03/21/2022

Perfect indeed! Thrilled to hear you enjoyed the sound of the wave crashing. You're officially a local and Padre Escapes can't wait to host you again!

My family and I loved staying here. The children had fun walking to beach and we loved not having to search for parking. Amentities are beautiful and you feel like you are almost in your own home.

- Anonymous from San Antonio, Posted: 08/24/2021

Families always enjoy this townhome due to the convenience of being so close to the beach, I'm glad you all were able to take advantage as well! We look forward to hosting another great vacation!

A great place very roomy and clean and just a short walk to the beach my family loved it. We would stay there again for sure.

The place was clean and had all the amenities we needed. We liked the location being close to beach and the host provided recommendations of places to eat and things to do.

- Tracy Pete M. from Papillion, Posted: 03/09/2021

Thank you for the great feedback. We are happy to hear you enjoyed the location and we hope you liked the restaurants we recommended as much as we do .

A great location, just a short walk to the beach. We could hear and see the waves from both front balconies. The back balcony and windows had great views, as well. Plenty of room for our family. Beach Bum Golf Cart Rentals topped it off with great service and the best price in the area. Our family had a great time.

- Teresa S. from Lockhart, Posted: 10/30/2020

Teresa, we LOVE the views at Pathways to the sea! We are glad you enjoyed this unit as much as we do! We are excited to host your next family's vacation.

We used the Pathway to the Sea for a work event. The condo was very nice, spacious and clean. Gave everyone their private quarters and the living space was great for the large meeting. It is also a great location from the beach and the fishing dock we left off. Great time and Padre Escapes was very responsive, helpful and friendly.

- Angela H. from Mc Gregor, Posted: 10/02/2020

Rental was nice and in a perfect location from the beach BUT there was no parking and I stayed between 2 condo owners. So, our group really couldn’t enjoy ourselves without walking on egg shells. We had to keep it down and it wasn’t even 8pm. Pool furniture needs to be replaced and they need more bbq pits. We bought food to bbq and we couldn’t bbq because people where having parties in the pavilion area.

- Venessa G. from Corpus Christi, Posted: 10/02/2020

We apologize for the issues you experienced. They are actually in the process of adding more grills and they have already order replacement pool furniture. We actually manage the neighboring properties and they were there during your stay but they do not live there on a regular basis. Thank you for the feedback.

The property was not quite as nice as the pictures had made it to be. Our initial reaction was disappointment when we learned that the garage was not part of the unit and not accessible for us to use. Stepping into the property we noticed that there were ants downstairs and that it had a pretty strong smell of mildew. I do understand it is a very high humidity because you’re right by the beach but the AC unit or filters need to beLooked at and cleaned. After arriving home all of our clothing and everything we had taken smelled of mildew. We had many plumbing issues with the property where the toilet would not flush and the showers would not drain. Padre escapes was very quick to send out a plumber to fix the issue and they had found that someone at the property before us had flushed soap bars down the toilets and they were able to relieve the issue by the middle of our stay.

There were a few other things that were just not up to par like the fold out couches in the living room had crumbs and food particles all in the sheets when we arrived so we had to remove those and clean them ourselves. It was just not everything I was expecting but overall we were mildly pleased with the property and location to the beach. For 11 people It was a convenient house to stay in and I would definitely look at this property again but would absolutely choose another unit. The owners of this unit need to fine-tune some of the details that make your stay nice. Like the plumbing, the mildew smell, and it definitely needs a deep cleanin

Just as described. Clean and comfortable. Perfect location.

- Tracey M. from Dublin, Posted: 06/26/2020

Great place, only issue need more trash bags,

- John S. from Spring Branch, Posted: 06/16/2020

This place was amazing and was exactly as advertised. The place was clean and ready upon arrival. Beds were great and comfortable. Kitchen was a great place to gather and cook for our party of 9. We plan to go back and stay at this same place in the future. Beach was steps away and set in a place where you could set up camp without traffic going up and down the beach where we were. Great place for kids and teens.

- Gina L. from Lubbock , Posted: 05/28/2020

Our stay in this townhome was a wonderful experience. We couldn't have asked for a better stay. The home was very clean and the beds were so comfortable. We went we a few others and everyone was very content. We plan to book with Padre Escapes again in the very near future.

- Cierra N. from Austin, Posted: 05/20/2020

The house was great. Clean and very close to The beach. Maybe some umbrella tables by the pool from sun. A/C needed a little more help in the living room and bedrooms downstairs. We lived the house. Very spacious.��

- RITA V. from SAN ANATONIO, Posted: 09/01/2019

Very good town house. Very close to beach. Overall excellent experience.

- Anonymous from Southlake, Posted: 08/11/2019

- Steven G. from San Antonio, Posted: 08/06/2019

The property was absolutely beautiful and we were all very happy with the location. The beach was close enough to walk and everyone had a wonderful time.

- Maria C. , Posted: 07/03/2019

We originally booked 3 nights but when we got there we found out the pool was not in service. The dryer was also not working. We were offered 20% discount and Schlitterbahn tickets but we requested to be moved to another unit with a pool because we had 6 children with us. Padre Escapes was able to accommodate our request the following day.

- Sandra C. from Gatesville, Posted: 06/26/2019

Location is great, is was clean comfortable and organized, my family had a great experience condo has everything you need, amazing views from each balcony we will definitely be back and bring more friends,

- Alberto G. from San Marcos, Posted: 06/25/2019

We had a wonderful time at Pathway to the Sea. Great Condo with a great location. We only had a couple of issues one trash was left on the back porch and in the garage. The other is the smoke detectors would go off several times a day which was very annoying. Other than that our stay was great.

- Matt W. , Posted: 06/18/2019

Thank you for the feedback and we apologize for the issues. We have worked with housekeeping on addressing the trash on the patio issues and maintenance has since been in and replaced the defective detectors. Hope we see you back again soon.

Nice location and nice place to stay. The kitchen area was the best area. Good seating for everyone. We did not like that you had to take so many stairs and that the first level bedroom meant you had to walk up stairs and walk down stairs to get to it. That should be pointed out for visitors as some folks may not be able to take so many stairs. It would be a 5 if not for their first floor room stairs. Other than that, all was great. we liked all the diff balconies that viewed the ocean and pool. Oh and the beds were so comfortable... great mattresses and pillows!
