Nice
We stayed for a month. When we checked in the house was very clean. The management company did responded quickly to issues we had. A few items should have been at the house that we had to go buy ourselves Such a broom, cleaning supplies.

Lovely home and great location
We had a wonderful stay. Beds were comfy and we had all we needed there. Excellent location, we walked to a lot of places. We enjoyed the balconies for sunrise and sunset. And the pool out back was lovely. Will definitely keep your home in mind for our next trip.

Great Location
We really enjoyed the pool and great location. It was a nice quiet place. There were a few minor repairs that could have been made to make it’s appearance better but it did not effect the stay. We definitely stay again for the price.
Maintenance needed: master shower rack, toilet seat, leaking sink faucet. Overall a nice place

South Padre Condo
This condo would be an ideal spot for a bachelor party group or spring breakers to stay. Could use a deep cleaning and coat of paint, and some updates to this century. Some of the appliances are broken. Overall it functions well enough, the pool was great and the hot water for showers seemed endless!

Great location. Poor management
Only a couple of blocks from the beach. Great location. Property was nice. Nothing fancy. Pool is not heated. Back area needed cleaned. Very basic outdoor furniture. Pool was dirty.
Beds were very uncomfortable. Sheets were too big for the beds and wouldn’t stay on. Only two washcloths for three people for four days.
No extras here at all. No coffee filters for the five cup hotel style coffee pot.
Bathroom items were similar to a hotel experience.
Tried contacting management for a couple of issues and no response.
Just not the same kind of experience we have had with other vacation homes. No frills at all. If you want something you better bring it with you. Bedding was just thrown in the closets. No broom to clean up sand from our shoes.
The property has great potential just needs better amenities and more organized with the ones they have.

Birds & Sand
We are birders and beach lovers. Access to the beach was good, and we enjoyed the bird center nearby. The place provided a good atmosphere to return to each day after our outdoor adventures.
Checkout could have been improved if the request to put towels and sheets into the washer had been listed with the initial email. Also, there was no laundry detergent there for doing this.

Spring Break 2022
The property was a bit run down but overall ok. Lots of debris in the pool when we arrived and the exterior patios were very dirty and we had to mop them to not track mud into the house. It could definitely use a good refresh and deep clean but overall was ok for our week long stay. The pool was very cold at spring break and no option for pool heat but we knew that going in. Location is pretty good though it is next to a the busy main route through South Padre.

The property was nice. Convenient to everything that we normally participate in.
The only negative communication was when we were leaving. The night before we received notice to load and run the dishwasher but we had already cleaned the dishes and turn the lights off. Then this morning after we had packed and left received a message to put towels in the washer and turn the thermostat up. We would have gladly done this if we knew ahead of time. We had washed towels a couple days earlier.
