Village by the Beach P907K

We had such a great time staying at village by the beach. The rental was very clean, spacious and had all the equipment necessary to make you feel at home. Highly recommend it to anyone who wants a relaxing getaway.

Overall, I had a good stay. The staff is very responsive and helpful. But I have several issues with the condo: despite several pest sprayings during my stay of six weeks, I saw a cockroach or two almost every day! Very unpleasant. The primary bathroom shower curtain needs to be replaced. It is rusty and gross. The lighting in the condo is very dim and poor. It was not as clean as I would have liked: I found dried beans and bits of popcorn on the floor when I moved in. Even though the places sleeps 12, there is only one towel rack in each bathroom which is ridiculous. The wash machine and dryer are very hard to start. Pushing the start button had to be done just so and it was hard to find that sweet spot. I was disappointed the playground was never opened. I saw no work being done on it.

There’s lots of space, my favorite part was the balcony in the master upstairs .
The condo was super clean! If you have any questions they respond to you right away.

The Padre Escapes team is very friendly and great to deal with. They called to check to see if I received the check in code and information. This rental was really great! It was clean and it was just as expected. No complaints at all! It is an easy 5 minute (or less) walk to the beach, or a 1 minute drive. We absolutely love this area, and will be back again next summer for sure and will book with Padre Escapes once again!

- Christine S. from Lubbock, Posted: 08/12/2021

Super happy to know that you enjoyed your vacation! We are excited to continue the tradition and host another great stay for you and your family. See you next summer!

We had a wonderful time it was very close to the beach for our Grandkids ... and the rental was very clean ... the ice maker on the Refrigerator did not work but that was OK cause we had bags of ice... We will be staying here again Thank you for such a wonderful place to stay

- Fran P. from San Antonio, Posted: 07/31/2021

Awesome! Glad the grandkids had a fun vacation! I will be sure to notify maintenance of the icemaker, please note in the future to report any issues so we may address them during your stay. Thank you and we will see you soon!

Our vacation stay was awesome and the location was ideal..

- Laura P. from Moore, Posted: 07/23/2021

So glad to hear it! We hope to see you soon!

So pleased with our stay. Plenty of space for everyone to sleep and spread out. LOVED the decor, also the fact that the pool was right out our back door. Condo was just a block from the beach and the kids had a fantastic time. Will be back for sure!

- Cynthia P. from San Antonio, Posted: 06/27/2021

Incredible vacation. Definitely we will be back.

- Robert Z. from Blanco, Posted: 05/11/2021

Yay! We look forward to hosting another great "escape"!

Great location, walking distance to beach/ facing pool. Lovely and clean interior- so much storage and so many places to relax

- Anonymous from Bloomington, Posted: 01/08/2021

We are glad you enjoyed the unit. Walking distance to the beach is always a plus! We look forward to hosting another relaxing time.

Overall, it was great! Close to the beach, the national seashore, the pools, playground everything. The place was clean and well laid out and supplied. My almost three year old granddaughter loved the place, calling it Oma’s beach house. Really a wonderful month.
The issues I have are minor. The bathrooms need more towel racks, one per bathroom is not enough, considering the place sleeps at least 10!
The beach/ocean decor is a bit over the top. But you can get used to it.
The wash machine was very temperamental. I had to call maintenance (they were very responsive) because I could not get it started. It was not broken, but even after they showed me how to set it, it did not always go on right away.
The lighting was a bit dim, maybe stronger light bulbs?
I am upset that starting 2021, there is a 60 night minimum stay. While it is great to get away from the cold of the northeast, 60 days is too long to be away from my activities at home.

- Lucy H. from Florence, Posted: 03/17/2020

Thank you for the feedback, we apologize for the confusion. For the months of January and February only we require a 60 night booking if you want the monthly rental rate. That requirement is lifted on April 1st and 30 night bookings are allowed. We have followed up and checked on your main concerns as well. We greatly appreciate your feedback and hope we see you back again soon.

Lots of sleeping space

- Alyssa H. from monahans, Posted: 07/07/2019

It was a very nice place but we did notice a lot of hairs in beds and bathrooms. There needed to be more kitchen items like salt, pepper etc. Also it didn't seem like the linens were fresh and clean. Overall just an "Ok" stay.

- Brandon B. from San Antonio, Posted: 07/02/2019

We apologize for these issues, that is certainly not up to our normal standard. Cleaning is a priority for us so we will be sure to address it. The owner has also requested that the housekeeper who cleaned her property at that time be changed and we have done so. The state of Texas does not allow any food items to be transferred between stays, including salt, pepper, spices or oils. Thank you for the feedback, we will be sure to address each of your concerns.

The property was nice, clean,and comfortable for the five of us It was a good location at the end of the road and just a couple of blocks from the beach. It was a little cool most of the time we were there, but the heated pool was great for the grand kids. I definitely recommend this property.

- James M. from Tulsa, Posted: 03/25/2019

The accommodations were excellent but the weather for the month of February was not. 20 days of fog and cloud. And though the property is close to the beach, it is remote from shops and restaurants.

- Anonymous from port hope, Posted: 03/08/2019

Thank you for the feedback. There really isn?t anything we can do about the weather, it was whole lot worse through out the rest of the country. Glad you enjoyed the property.

My family has been making trip to Padre Island for many years from San Antonio . We have discovered few years ago new place that absolutely caters to our family , which includes my 2 young grandkids. This is Village by the Beach . We stayed there now at least 5 times and plan on to continue to return. Our agent at Padre Escapes has always been there to attend to any of our needs . They are very best at what they do !

- Vladimir S. from San Antonio, Posted: 10/25/2018

The condo was super nice. It is about a 1-2 block walk to the beach. The only suggestion I have is to add hooks in the bathroom- there was no place to hang bath towels.

- Anonymous from Universal City, Posted: 08/09/2018

We were very impressed with this condo. It was super clean, convenient to the beach and lots of room for our family. Having a pool right outside the door was wonderful. It was a great hone away from home! Would definitely stay here again.

- Anonymous from Temple, Posted: 08/05/2018

The house was absolutely beautiful. Everything was clean and well taken care of. We checked in late, the staff was overly accommodating and couldn't have been nicer. I can't wait to come back again.

- Anonymous from HUTCHINSON, Posted: 06/23/2018

Everything was as described, family had a great time, process was super easy...thank you!

- Wayne M. from Comanche, Posted: 05/23/2018

The rental was absolutely beautiful, top quality, comfortable and relaxing. Being just across from the pool gave the townhouse a community feel. Closeness to sand dunes pathway to beach was only a three minute walk which we took almost daily.

- Janice S. from Elora, Posted: 03/19/2018

Due to hurricane Harvey we needed to relocate for four months. We were fortunate to find this property..brand new and very comfy for two of us. The bed in the master bedroom was wonderful however it was a bit difficult for our older adult guests sleeping in bunk beds. Being new the condo was very well outfitted. A pleasure to stay there. We really did not have opportunity to use pool but it looked great.

- Anonymous from Port Aransas, Posted: 01/22/2018

Thank you for your feedback. We hope you are back home and recovering well from Hurricane Harvey. There is also a very comfortable credenza queen size bed in the living area. It is lower to the ground and is an option for those needing a queen bed that is easy to get into. Thank you again for the feedback.

The property was WONDERFUL everything that was described was right on point. The place was very clean and well maintained. Everything you could possibly think of they had it covered from the lien to the kitchen. The beach was just around the corner walking distance from the Condo. The customer service was great . I have been telling everyone about the property. I would most definitely recommend this property I was "wowed" on how great it was
