Great location
It’s a great location. Sits on the beach. The condo faces the beach with a really nice, large balcony facing beach. We were able to sit and watch sunrise drinking our coffee. Condo is well equipped and clean. It is on 3rd floor with no elevator so need to be able to climb stairs but definitely worth every step. Host is easy to contact and reaches out to make sure all is well. Have booked again for next year. Older groups of people staying at property so very quiet. Nice pool, nice people to visit with and very pet friendly.

Wonderful Experience & Accommodations
This was our first use of VRBO and it exceeded our expectations. The condo was fantastic - beautifully appointed, attractive and complete in every regard. The location was ideal.-. a beautiful view of the beach and ocean, and conveniently located on South Padre Island. Instructions for getting there, and checking in and out were timely and easy to understqnd. Overall it was a wonderful experience. We are definitely considering returning.

This beach-front condo is perfect for a relaxing beach vacation. We found it to be immaculately clean and very comfortable with a well-stocked kitchen and everything provided that guests might need for the stay. The view of the Gulf from the balcony is amazing with front-row views of the sunrise. It's a lovely place to relax with a cup of coffee or glass of wine any time of day. With the beach just steps away, it's easy to spend as much time as you like on the sand or in the water. Communication with the host was outstanding. She answered questions promptly prior to our arrival and checked in with us via text shortly after our arrival to make sure we had everything was in order. We highly recommend this beach-front condo for a vacation on South Padre Island.

Mesmerizing view of beach
Very nice upscale, modern and clean. Splendid views of sunrises and very relaxing sitting on 3rd floor balcony watching and listening to the surf. Condo inside is very quiet and have all the needed amenities. Just a few steps from the clean well patrolled beach where you can use provided chairs and cover or rent some for the day already setup. Small pet friendly with good rules. Stairs only which can be a little tiresome for seniors. Good wifi with Smart TVs. Some outdoor construction going on but was not intrusive. Breach maint shut down much of the beachfront but luckily only on the morning we left. Great mild weather and light crowds in late October. Loved the stay.

Great Getaway
Every part of our stay was outstanding. Communication with our host Karen was smooth and easy. All her instructions before arriving were really helpful. The condo sits at the very rear of the complex. Easy access to the beach is an understatement. The stunning views from the balcony are second to none. The fact that the host provided chairs and an umbrella were extremely helpful. The property is equipped with everything one would need for a relaxing stay.

Beachfront condo
Well appointed condo that is on the 3rd floor allowing you to sit on the balcony enjoying the sea breeze and listen to the waves. The ocean is visible from most areas of the condo (not the bathroom). We bring our Keurig to have our instant hot coffee on demand. Love sitting on the balcony on Friday and Saturday evenings for the fireworks display off the pier. Communication with the owner is fantastic and she quickly responds to any concerns. We’ve stayed here multiple times and look forward to staying again.

Great Sunrises
The condo is just as nice as it looks in the photos. We loved sitting out on the deck, especially for watching the sunrises. Being right across the street from the SPI Birding and Nature Center, and Turtle, Inc. was a plus, too. Beach access is really close and easy and the water was beautiful.

Great Condo Right on the Beach!
Wife and I spent 3 nights here and loved it! Condo exactly as described and pictured. Amazing view of the ocean and only steps from the beach. Well stocked kitchen with all needed appliances. Comfortable bed, good water pressure in the shower and a cold AC - what more do you need! Very clean unit with no moldy odors which are sometimes present in gulf coast beach rentals. Host was very communicative and checked in by text to make sure everything was good. Located on the north end of the main strip so easy walk across the street to the SPI Birding and Nature Center which we very much enjoyed. Blue lights at night in the kitchen cabinets were awesome. Worth noting, there is no elevator so be ready for the stairs with this third-floor unit. We'd have no hesitation booking this unit again in the future!

Amazing beachfront condo
This is a beautiful condo that the owner is working to maintain and upgrade. We’ve stayed at this property multiple times and can see the love given. Since our last stay the owner has placed a new range, thermostat and mattress for the bed. Everything is in good working order and plenty of dishes, pots/pans and utensils needed. We bring our Keurig. Love being able to watch the waves from the balcony and condo. We call this “Our happy place.” Looking forward to our next visit in 2 months. Highly recommend staying here.

We were a little earlier than check-in time. I contacted the hosts and they unlocked the door for us which was so unexpected and so very nice! After entering the place we found it to be very inviting and comfortable! It was spotless! The ac was on to a comfortable level, which was nice because it was super humid outside! The view was incredible! We were right smack dab on the beach! We woke up to beautiful sunrises every day! The only negative I would give is that there is no elevator, other than that, I will definitely give this place 10/10!! If we ever return to SPI, we will stay here! I highly recommend checking this place out!
