Hotel is walking distance from the beach, which a big bonus! The hotel room was comfortable, the restroom was a little dirty, bring your Clorox wipes. Staff was super sweet and nice! Hotel has towels so don’t bring any, save the luggage space. Also there is a laundry room in the second floor bring quarters to wash and dry your dirty clothes.

Management Issue

I chose the option to pay a deposit for the room at booking, and then pay the remainder at check in. Not sure what happened but the booking was processed without the deposit. Fast forward to the day of arrival, we could not make it to the hotel until the evening. I received a call from the hotel a couple of hours after I was supposed to check in letting me know that they ran my card for the full amount (this was pre check-in and I didn’t give permission to run my card for full amount pre check-in) and that the payment didn’t process (I hadn’t transferred funds yet, thought I was paying when I checked in). We settled on paying when I got to the hotel. At check in, I was told by reception that prior to the phone call, she was told by the manager to cancel my stay if I did not answer my phone the first time they called. This was after my family and I had traveled 13 hours by car to get to South Padre Island. Good thing I answered, otherwise we wouldn’t have had a place to stay. The exchange left me feeling less than valued as a paying customer. On top of that, there was a large wet spot by the air conditioner in our room that sunk into the floor and made the room smell badly. Told reception at check out and was offered no apology or anything. Would not stay here again.

The staff was amazing, the breakfast was not great. Also the pool door leading to parking lot was left open multiple days. It was evident people not staying at the hotel were using the pool causing it to be overcrowded

Overpriced for what you get. The bathroom was dirty and had mold spots. We made it a point to spend as little time as possible in our room. Breakfast is pretty basic/standard. We called the front desk and housekeeping a few times and no one ever answered. The entire place could use a good deep clean.

The rooms at this hotel are very nice, clean and comfortable. All the toiletries you need are available and there is a microwave, mini fridge, and kuerig coffee maker. We were given a room right next to the housekeeping and there were lots of noises, bumps, bangs, etc until late at night. Also, you could hear running through the halls. We always take a BT speaker for cases like this so we can blast white noise to drown out noise if necessary, and believe me, it became necessary. The lobby and eating area were kind of small. We did not take advantage of the free breakfast since we slept in. The pool area is decent enough to take a dip and cool off. We did not walk to the beach since we arrived a little later and we were only staying in this hotel one night before checking in at a different condo the next day. We had no idea there was a covered sitting area that was beachside that belonged to the hotel since that information was not given to us at check-in; otherwise, we may have taken advantage of that for a little while. I only found this out after looking at the pictures online again a few days later and saw a pic of the beachside seating area with the description underneath. The hotel is on the main strip a few blocks from the beach so I am not sure where this is actually located or how to get to it. Overall, it is a nice hotel with comfortable beds - if you don't get a room next to housekeeping you should get a good nights sleep.

The Best Hotel!!

This hotel is my new favorite hotel. The bed is so comfortable we had the best sleep and was very quiet. The pool was spacious and very clean. The only thing that I didn’t like was the beach access (white sand) is about a mile long and have to walk. They do have feet showing you where to go which I loved. Located inside the pool area is a wash off station so you don’t get sand in the pool or in hotel so that was a plus and the hot tub. The shower in our room did not disappoint. I loved how they had all Dove products. We really enjoyed it here we will be booking here from now on!!!
2 queen beds felt like a big cloud! Very comfirtable
Sofa bed
I loved the products they use and loved how they have them there already and they left our hair soft!

You get what you pay for

The first two days were great. We really enjoyed the hotel and the room. Last day and our check out day was just okay. It can get noisy at night especially if your room is near the lobby. The space of the room was excellent for our family of 5. Easy access to the beach. Kids loved the pool. All in all the stay was fine.
