    The overall stay was good. Building was quiet, penthouse was clean and roomy. Plenty of beach towels and beach accessories although a few of the beach chairs were broken and unusable (obviously the owners are unaware). Kitchen was well stocked as far as dishes/utensils. The one thing that was a bit disappointing was the lack of any sort of spices (salt & pepper) or even a few starter packages of coffee. Maybe having these things around from previous tennants is against policy? But, overall it was a great trip (aside from the masses of jellyfish on the beach).

    The location of the condo was great! Easy beach access and not far from South Padre blvd. The balconies allowed views of the ocean, as well as the bay side fireworks. The shower located in the loft bathroom was not useable, the sliding glass doors had been broken before our arrival, so that made our stay less enjoyable, due to 8 people using 2 showers. Also, the garbage disposal in the kitchen was inoperable and the sink backed up anytime it was used, leaving the sink full of old food and grime. But overall, we enjoyed our stay.

    Great set of rooms for our crew. Wish I’d known there were beach chairs and toys available in the room before we transported all of ours down there.

    The location of this condo is great. The actual building is very dated and the building itself needs repair. Chunks of concrete is missing on parts of the outside. The condo itself is well decorated. The stairs to the loft are VERY narrow. It's a little dangerous if you're not in good shape. The view is spectacular. While the kitchen has plenty of pots and pans they probably need to be replaced. The beds were nice and the pillows were also good. The condo was clean. While we enjoyed our stay we probably will not stay again. I think you can find some thing newer for the same price.

    Very nice condo. The pool was not kept warm was a disappointment though. Also be on the 10th floor was a little scary if there would of been a fire because they had the doors to stairs locked when we tried them so no exit except the elevator.

    This condo was spacious and well equipped for our family. The views were phenomenal with 3 different balconies to catch sunrises and sunsets. We appreciated the many offerings such as beach chairs, umbrella, volleyball, etc. We met several other owners and all were friendly and ready with great tips for enjoying the island.

    This property is spacious, well-equipped, and perfect for a large family. Not only is it on the beach with some of the best views SPI has to offer, it’s also a great location within walking distance of restaurants, etc.

    We really enjoyed our stay at this location. The views of the beach were amazing. The place was nicely decorated and very up to date. All bedrooms were roomy and nice beds. There was plenty of towels including beach towels. The kitchen was well supplied with cooking items. The communication with the property manager was top notch and responded quickly to my requests. I would definitely stay here again.

    This was our first time to South Padre Island and the condo was absolutely perfect for our family. We had 11 of us ranging in ages 3yrs old and up, the upstairs loft was perfect for the 4 teenagers we had. The spaces bedrooms on the main level were perfect for the rest of us. To be able to open up the balcony door and sit outside and listen to the waves crashing and watching the sun come up was picture perfect. Everyone at the property was very friendly and even before we arrived everyone at Frankie was easy to work with and very communicative. It felt like this was our 100th time there not our first. We will definitely be back and be (hopefully) staying in the same unit again.

    Perfectly close to restaurants and shopping while still being quiet at night. Even the grocery store is within willing distance! The loft is a tight squeeze but the teens made it home and they had their own bathroom upstairs.

    Plenty of beds, everything you need for both in the home and going to beach. Having beach chairs and umbrellas was great! Little things like mosquito spray, sunscreen, beach toys, plenty of beach towels, all pleasant surprises. There was even WD-40 in the closet which was used to lubricate the squeaky door! Kitchen fully stocked with pots, pans, dishes, and all the kitchen tools needed. Could use some Tupperware containers with lids. The cleaning service needs some training as they don't pay attention to detail, but not dirty. Bar glasses on open shelf are really dusty and dirty, there were dishes put away that were put up dirty, as in used, and not washed. Upstairs bathroom constantly smells like a sewer, think the pipes need looked at. The mattresses need to be replaced. Springs poke you and minimal support. All three downstairs bedrooms were horrible. No one's back is feeling good right now. Not sure on upstairs as the kids slept there and they didn't complain. Replace with tempurpedic and advertise that they are tempurpedic, you will have people rent for that reason alone! Internet is non existent. No matter the time of day or night. So bad that you cannot even watch TV. Had to use hotspot on the phone to watch one TV. Let the front desk know and they said there was nothing wrong with it. Negatives only given so they can be improved. Overall it was a great stay and would rent again (if beds replaced!). Thank you!

    Great for extended families or large groups. We had 12 people in our group that ranged from 81-12 years of age. Place is on the beach with a private entrance to the beach, around the corner from the strip, restaurants, grocery store, convenience stores, etc. Also has a nice pool, grills for cooking out, exercise equipment, private parking lot. The place had all we needed, towels, appliances, dishes, beach umbrellas, boogie board, etc. Definitely a great place to stay.

    This space was amazing! My cousins and I had a Cousins Retreat to reconnect, and this space allowed us to do that comfortably. Lots of space, gorgeous views and right on the beach! We had a truly wonderful time!
