Island Experience

The property was cozy and worked well for our family. I loved the bunk beds built into the nook in the wall. That was such a great use of space. There was plenty of room for the six of us. We enjoyed our stay on Padre Island. Where we stayed, there is a pool outside the bedroom window and the groups are very loud are out there very late at night (until close to 2:00 a.m.) Since we were on vacation, it wasn't a huge inconvenience, but it was annoying.

6/10 Okay

Liked: Check-in
Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy
The location of the condo was excellent, just a short 3-4 minute walk to the beach, and a quick 5-minute drive to restaurants, bars, nightlife, and grocery stores. Our main issue was the lack of cleanliness. We ended up buying a mop to clean the floors because they were in terrible condition. There was hair on the towels and pillowcases, and the walls had some gunk on them. We totally understand that this is Padre and it's known as a 'party' place, but we simply wanted a clean space to stay. The condo itself is fantastic, but it really needs a thorough cleaning and some maintenance, including a fresh coat of paint. Lastly, the dehumidifier was helpful, but we had to empty it multiple times a day/each time we returned - to avoid feeling damp and sticky. I recommend having the A/C system checked as well.

Cozy quarters

While a lovely spot, the “sleeps 6” description speaks more to physical bedspace than practicality of actually having six people get a good night‘s rest. It’s a bit cozy for 6. ;) Master Bed mattress and sheets could use an upgrade, for comfort. Blinds in Master Bedroom also missing any ability to be adjusted. A lovely spot for a weekend getaway for 2!
