The property was spacious and comfortable. The balcony and ocean views from the bedroom and living area took it over the top. Would love to come back soon!
Elegant yet comfortable furnishings, great views and incredibly peaceful place. We enjoyed starting g our days with coffee on the balcony watching the sunrise over the ocean view. The boardwalk was clean and provided perfect t access to the beach. The pool was private and refreshing as well.
The apartment is perfectly location in the middle of south padre island and it has reserved parking directly on the beach access for one car which it makes easy to go and come back from the beach.
The apartment itself it is a spacious two bedrooms with very nice finishes in the living room and master bathroom. The kitchen is very well equipped and it has new appliances with a washer and dryer. We enjoyed our time at the balcony looking directly at the beach. The pool of the apartment complex was very clean as well.
The only downside the checkout is at 10am.
We got to SPI every year and by far it is one of the best places we stayed and would definitely like to stay there again.
My family goes down to SPI almost every summer. We decided we were going to get a different condo/location. That was a big mistake. Vacasa was virtually without communication with us when we had issues.
Before we arrived I inquired about things that would be at the condo and I was told incorrectly that these items would not be available. So we packed and bought items to bring with us. Turns out these items WERE in the condo. So we bought unnecessary items and picked them with us. The next issue was we were never emailed the instructions for check in. On the way in I had to call and try to get someone on the phone to get the instructions sent.
While we were there we had trouble with parking. We constantly had people parking in our reserved spots (each condo has one reserved parking spot) and because it was a public beach access site people would park in the private spots. Well when we encountered this issue we immediately called VRBO and Vacasa. VRBO couldnât get in touch with Vacasa. I finally called the condo management and they said they would âpass along the messageâ. I never got followed up with that and we had to park much further down with a crying infant.
On top of that there were quite hours of 10-8. We had upstairs neighbors and neighboring neighbors having parties into 2 in the morning leaving us sleepless almost eve dry night. We immediately messaged Vacasa & it took them two days to get back to us and it was a template reply. DO NOT STAY HERE. Itâs awful.
I have stayed at many different vacation rentals, from a yurt in Tennessee to a creepy old farmhouse in Gettysburg. This place was by far my favorite. Close to everything we wanted to do, beautiful balcony view. We had a bad storm during our stay and the rental company texted to make sure we were ok. Excellent customer service. Weâre hoping to make this a yearly trip. Definitely recommend this company.
We stayed for 9 days and really enjoyed ourselves. It was our first time to SPI. The condo was clean and in a great location. It has fantastic views from both the main living area and master bedroom. The balcony is spacious but the chairs were always damp from the humidity so we didnât sit out there. No screens on the sliding glass doors which I thought was odd but it must be intentional. The glass was always wet so to really appreciate the views from inside you need to open the sliders, also for some needed fresh air. Maybe there are no bugs? The beach wasnât crowded which was nice. Some other pros: designated parking spot, comfy king bed, nicely decorated, beautiful shower tile, big closets, extra pillows and well stocked (except for pantry items). The cons: Basics like ice, coffee and filters, salt and pepper (the shakers should be removed from the counter if they will never be filled) and Kleenex are not provided. We used toilet paper to blow our noses and subsequently ran out of TP on day 7. Unfortunately that was Easter and my request for TP went unanswered.
