Tropical Treat CBC298K

Although the weather was not cooperating with strong winds, red flags at the beach, water high at the beach most days and not able to enjoy the beach. The pool was great and heated. The amenities throughout were in great condition and the unit we stayed in although small it served us well.

Property in great condition and no issues with check in or check out or the unit itself.

The gift you left for my grandaugher was great, THANK YOU! The room was dusty and had the picture with crack in it that had to be removed and it was a studio instead of seperate bedroom was not what I'd hoped for. My mistake for not catching the bedroom sooner.. Other than that it was ok but won't pay that much for a studio again when I found full bedroom for same price.

We are so glad you enjoyed it! We apologize for the issues you came across and happy you brought them to attention and we could address in a timely manner. We hope to host you in the future soon.

Everything was as described. Place was clean and nicely stocked for a weekend or even longer get away. The bath rub shower was a little temperamental. I couldn't figure out how to get sufficiently hot water. That could just be operator error. The control nob was iffy.

Thank you for your review. We will investigate further into the mentioned item. Please note if you are experiencing any complications during your stay to give us a call and we will remedy the situation. Thank you!

I brought my three young children for a last minute day camp. It was a great quiet location in the complex and everything we needed. We walked to the beach every night and found it to be pretty calm during the week. I was so happy with this unit and the way it is managed and cleaned.

Hi, thank you for the opportunity for feedback. Interactions with Padre Escape personnel for the rental, info before, during my stay were excellent. Very responsive. A map of where the unit is on the property would be a help. The unit was very clean! I chose the unit for the view and was very pleased. There is some road noise if you sit on the balcony, and some band noise in the evenings; but this worked ok for me. It has some peculiarities in the bathroom (stool and shower mechanism), which could be updated.

Very nice studio
But stairs were too narrow and steep
Not enough lighting going up staircase
Otherwise very nice place

Thank you for your feedback, I will share it with the complex's HOA. Hope to see you soon!

Definitely worth your money, great location, access to several beaches, restaurants.

- Patricia C. from New Braunfels, Posted: 08/12/2021

Thank you! We look forward to hosting you again!

The place was very clean and accessible. Loved that it was walking distance to the beach! Would highly recommend

- Julie C. from Broken Arrow , Posted: 10/08/2020

The apartment matched the description. Was very clean,the linens were also very clean. The kitchen has everything you need. The bay is very close. Very easy to check in and check-out. I recommend and will come again. We liked everything, thank you!

- Natalja M. from San Antonio, Posted: 10/02/2020

Management communicated well, very nice condo, very clean. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The condo was very comfortable. Would definitely recommend.

So my partner and I stayed at this place in early May for a couple of nights. The state had just started to open up from COVID -19. We wanted a place to go near the Ocean that wasn't a hotel and would allow us to keep to ourselves and away from people. We found this place, it was a short walk to a permit only section of the beach. At the beach club, we only ever came into close contact with a single lady. It was clean and comfortable. We had cable, a full kitchen, and a roomy bathroom. The balcony was nice, you could still look to the right and see the ocean. The A/c worked great, the bed wasn't too soft or firm and I appreciated the studio not being full carpet. The road in front of the studio was super nosy though, you would often hear people speeding or racing down the street with super loud mufflers late at night well after 10 pm and into the early morning around 2 am or so. One morning, with no warning we woke up and had no water for the better part of the day. It took us almost an hour to get ahold to a person to report it to (it turns out no one in the building had water). It would have been nice to receive a message letting us know at some point. In fact, at one point we were prompted to leave a voicemail and did not receive one until the next day asking about our water problem. By that time it had already been fixed and we were about to check out and ended up having a problem with a leaking dishwasher.
All in all the stay could have been much worse. I probably would consider coming back but they really need to work on a better communication system to relay information other than checking out or in. It was very frustrating not to be able to reach someone concerning our issues.

Had a great stay here. My first time at this particular community. And had a wonderful stay. Clean room, great internet, great location, and plenty of utensils to cook!!!!!!! Stayed here a little over month and felt like I never left home.

- Anonymous from Belle Isle , Posted: 03/13/2020

Very close to the beach, high quality room. Only complaint is that the dish washer doesn’t work.

- Ryan Q. , Posted: 08/13/2019

Everything was as described.

- Anonymous from Flower Mound, Posted: 07/12/2019

My family and I had a small vacation and the room we stayed in was beautiful. It was spacious, clean, and had everything we needed. The view we had was awesome and a walk away from the beach.

- Norma M. , Posted: 06/25/2019

This has been our fourth year at this same condo. We love it so much. Hopefully we will be back next year again. The unit is great for couples, very short walk to the beach. The only complaint I would have about this unit is the sound of the AC unit, it is a little loud. Besides that everything is perfect!

- Eren U. from Austin, Posted: 05/29/2019

We enjoyed our sunny apartment on Padre Island. We appreciated the great views, especially the herons and the pelicans in the lake in front. The gulf beach was only a 5 minute walk away. For light sleepers, the morning traffic noise was annoying. The kitchen was well equipped.

- Jennifer M. from Pointe Claire, Posted: 04/02/2019

No complaints! Check in/out process was so easy, unit was just the right size for two people, short walk to the beach. Will definitely stay again if we ever make it back to Padre Island!

This is our third time staying in Tropical Treat. It's our home away from home. Always clean and accommodating. Wouldn't want to stay anywhere else!

- Bridgette K. from El Dorado Springs, Posted: 07/22/2018

Great location for a few days away from the city. The location of the condo is close to great restaurants, the beach and to stores for basic needs. Everything you need to cook and store items was provided and it was very clean. We will definitely be going back to this cute little getaway.

- Nancy M. from San Antonio, Posted: 07/17/2018

The unit was cozy, with extra beds, nice and clean with a nice view. My only complaint is with the property, at the "car wash", which is only a water hose, the drain was clogged, and probably a million mosquitos attacking. Other than that, the property is beautiful and in a great location.

- Angel R. from The Woodlands, Posted: 07/16/2018

This was a great experience and will be back again to stay in the same location and rental.

- Greg H. from Dripping Springs, Posted: 06/14/2018

We have been staying at this place for the last three years and we love it every single time. It is a 5 min walk to the beach, very clean room, it is well furnished. I definitely couldn't have asked for more.

- Eren U. from Austin, Posted: 05/30/2018

The unit was small, but perfect for 1-2 people. I didn’t like that there wasn’t a deadbolt on the door, I wasn’t even sure if the door was locked since there was no lock. The linens and towels were not fresh, and it smelled like it just needed to be cleaned. I’m guessing no one had stayed there in a while. Beautiful views from the balcony! Well worth it.

- Natalie L. from Boern, Posted: 11/11/2017

Thank you for your feedback. With the recent Hurricane Harvey there have been some water/mildew issues so after reading your review will be going back through to double check this unit. Thank you again for your feedback.

We booked this condo for a last minute family vacation and we had a great time. The condo was very clean and had everything we needed.

- Tanner M. from Corpus Christi, Posted: 08/09/2017

We brought our golf cart thinking we would be far from the beach, but the condominiums are really close and withthin walking distance. When we weren't at the the beach, we enjoyed the hot tub and pool. The property is close to the main beach entrance road, but traffic does slow down by 10:00pm. We will be back, we loved it. The Condo and the property was really clean.

- PATRICIA D. from Greenville, Posted: 04/18/2017

Excellent

- John V. from Any city, Posted: 04/04/2017

Property was good except for the bed. Owner was contacted and would not replace. I did a thorough cleaning to make sure no mold was present for allergies. A refresher course in customer service would be appropriate for the on site home owners representative, as many renters I met there would not be returning because of rude and unpleasant experiences. We will be returning to area but not to this condo. Padre Escapes representatives were wonderful to work with.

Glad we were able to help you. I'm sorry your experience with the onsite HOA wasn't as pleasant. Complaints about this bed aren't something we've heard before. Past guests have been happy with it. If it continues to be a complaint though we will discuss changing it out with the owner. Thank you for your feedback.

This is our second time renting this unit for our quick get-a-way from Houston. This unit is clean, the ac works great and it's decorated tastefully. The only negative comment I have is that the caulking around tub is very dirty and Needs to be cleaned/bleached thoroughly. Also, the kitchen drain needs a good cleaning, the buildup is gross.

- Anonymous from Spring, Posted: 10/19/2016

Thank you for the feedback and I apologize for the inconveniences. We just got out of our busy season and are in the process of working our way through our deep cleans which will certainly address those issues. Thank you

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

This is a great little place for two people, maybe a third child on the pullout sofa. The confusion about where the rental is located is easier if you tell people that this unit faces the street and the entrance is on the street side, not in either of the two main entrances to the building.we love the location and the pool, nice workout room and sauna. The staff was very helpful with some minor issues in the condo.

- Sara M. from Denver, Posted: 10/12/2016

We thought this would be an ideal rental due to the discounted rate offered for the short weekend stay we had planned but this was not the case. The unit was hard to find on the property. The condo is ok but needs to be deep cleaned and touched up. The bathroom was really dirty and needed to be painted. The comforter on the bed was covered in stains and very worn. This condo is right next to the main street where there is lots of new construction and traffic which is pretty noisy day and night. We were also not too happy to see all the additional fees that this rental company asked for such as late check IN ($25), we could understand late check OUT but IN? To top off the rest of the frustrations of this visit, a text message at 8am on Sunday reminding us to check out on time was not necessary we will not be renting with this company again.

- Kim C. from Floresville, Posted: 08/23/2016

Thank you for the feedback. We're certainly disappointed to hear that the property was not clean in anyway, we do have a very high standard for cleanliness and we will address your concerns. As discussed the unit is on the 2nd floor, on the end of the 1st building on your right as you pull into the complex. It's not a hard unit to find, it's pretty simple really. The construction is a few hundred yards away, we have properties that are much closer to it and we've never heard a complaint from anyone about it. We do have a $25 late check-in fee, that is stated in our management agreement but it only applies to after hours check-ins such as yours that was at 11:00pm. The text message on the morning of your check-out is not a reminder to check-out, it's a "One-click check-out" to make the check-out process easier.

Very satisfied with our rental. Very clean, cozy and so close to he beach! Will stay here or another padre escapes rental again!

- Karla R. from San Antonio, Posted: 08/09/2016

it was really great!

- Dulce G. from Reynosa, Posted: 08/09/2016

I was delightfully surprised at how nice this studio condo was. It was very clean and nicely decorated. It is a one room condo with a small kitchen. The bathroom was full sized with plenty of room. I rented the condo for one person so there was plenty of room.
The bed was very comfortable. Everything works well, including the A/C. There was a little rust in the bathroom sink and the shower had some mold in the tiles but it wasn't a deal breaker. The only con for me was that there is no full size couch, only 2 love seats. The love seat is a sleeper sofa though so it would work great for a party of three. The property is nicely kept as well.

- Anonymous from Cedar Park, Posted: 08/06/2016

Had a wonderful time. The condo was awesome and we hope to come back soon!

- Rozeanne A. from San Antonio, Posted: 08/03/2016

The place was overall great. Perfect location, very clean, nice ammenities. It was a bit small for the advertised 4 person occupancy and the pull out sofa felt as nothing but springs. Perfect for a couple's getaway.

- Anonymous from Dripping Springs, Posted: 07/19/2016

Condo was exactly as described. Great view. Very close to beach. Love the pool/hot tub.

The floors did not appear to be swept/mopped. Bedding had stains. Road noise.

Good

- Eric G. from Austin, Posted: 04/26/2016

Good location. Rental staff were VERY helpful. Accom could do with some TLC really, especially in checking equipment and utensils, but overall, yes I would recommend this. Check the pricing though. We paid $1500 for 2 weeks while across the hall paid $1200 for 4 weeks.

- Edna A. from Cambridge, Posted: 03/24/2016

It was a great experience staying at the Tropical Treat unit. The place is really nice for a getaway. It's close to the beach and really enjoyed staying here.

- Veronica M. from Cibolo, Posted: 03/06/2016

We have used Padre Escapes 4 or 5 times now and could not be happier. This is the second time we have stayed on this particular property, in a different unit each time. This unit is exactly as the pictures indicate: clean, cute and comfortable. If you are sensitive to traffic sounds this might not be the unit for you especially on weekends when there is more traffic. We were prepared for that with a box fan to hum away the noise. We love the beach in October! The water was warm and weather pleasant.

For our Family of 4 perfectly. Great location. Clean !!!

- Anonymous from san angelo, Posted: 08/25/2015

Overall my family had a great experience. The condo was clean and nice. The only negative issue was with the swimming pool at the condo. The pool was very dirty, the water was extremely cloudy and had hair floating on top. But we would definitely stay at the condo again.

- Anonymous from Three Rivers, Posted: 08/09/2015

Great to hear you enjoyed your stay. We will certainly point our the pool issues to the homeowners association to make sure they are addressed. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to having you back.

We enjoyed our stay at Tropical Treat. We will be going back. Perfect size for my family of 3. Very clean and stocked with everything you need in the kitchen. We loved the private fishing pond.
