Sunny Oceanfront Condo on South Padre Island Beach

Reviews

• Nice location, dated condo

  3/5

  Great location, parking included, gated property. Pool was clean and warm, hot tube was scorching hot. Walking distance to restaurants and the bay. Condominium building is older and not very clean, sticky stuff on the hall floor for the 3 nights we were there, trash and construction stuff in the stairwell. No dishwasher, but there was soap and used sponges. Random food items left in cabinets. Only 3 small old bath towels, 3 Walmart beach towels. Shower has good pressure and was hot, but the curtain doesn't keep all the water in so the floor gets wet. Beds have think foam toppers over old dated mattress, no closet in master, small armoire. Beach chairs and cart were rusted, well used, but sufficed. No glass globes on ceiling fan light, whole condo needs a refresh. Second balcony looks over parking lot. More than 4 people would be tight. Again, great location, so was fine for 3 nights.

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Alana, we’re glad to hear the location, gated access, parking, and warm pool all made your trip more enjoyable. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your review, and they wanted to share the following:
  – We sincerely apologize for the housekeeping and maintenance issues in the building. The sticky floors in the hallway by the elevator, the construction debris in the stairwell, and the limited towel supply don't meet our standards. We've shared your comments with our cleaning and maintenance teams to address the concerns immediately.
  – We don’t advertise a dishwasher, and the photos in the listing accurately reflect the layout and features of the condo, including the furniture and balcony view. We include the square footage and sleeping arrangements so guests can book with confidence. That said, we understand some items, like the older beach gear and worn furnishings, could use an update, and we’re actively planning improvements to refresh the space. We also appreciate your notes about the furnishings, fan, armoire, and storage. This will help guide updates during our renovation planning.
  – Mattress preferences can vary, but we do use foam toppers to help enhance comfort. The shower curtain provided is standard as pictured.
  We appreciate your balanced review highlighting both positives and areas needing attention. Your feedback helps us improve the experience for future guests. We hope the convenient location made your 3-night stay enjoyable despite these shortcomings, and we'd welcome the opportunity to host you again after our planned improvements.

• Relaxing Beach Getaway

  5/5

  Our stay was absolutely perfect! The property is located right on the beach, offering breathtaking ocean views. Waking up to the sound of waves, watching the sunrise and enjoying coffee on the private balcony (or down on the beach) was pure bliss. The condo was impeccably clean and beautifully decorated. It was stocked with everything needed for cooking. It was missing dish soap and garbage bags, but we just ran to CVS and got what we needed. The host was incredibly welcoming and responsive to any questions we had. This rental truly felt like a slice of paradise. We can't wait to return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing beach getaway.

  This is the location you've been looking for, if you're looking for a beautiful, safe, and relaxing property. My family and I had wonderful stay. We look forward to staying again at some point in the future.

• Convenient

  4/5

  Appreciated early check-in and quick response from owners. The condo had everything you might need for the beach tucked in a closet (wagon, umbrella, cooler, chairs). It’s a short walk to the beach, so overall this was convenient. However, it could stand some updating and the sofa had a smoke smell to it.

• Great location on the beach

  4/5

  This condo is right on the beach and it’s great to sit on your balcony looking at the ocean! It was a bit compact for 6 people. The rooms had good size beds but due to room size, it left little room to move around. There are some beach items in closet which is nice. Overall, good stay for the price.
