Off Season Getaway

My husband and I just need a stress reliever trip. The condo was great, the weather was great and we loved watching the moon jelly fish around the dock in the evening. This helped us both to relieve a little stress, we certainly will return.

Nice place

Felt very comfortable and at home there. Nice and quiet. Close to everything. HEB and Walmart about 2 miles away. Literally a few blocks from the causeway to South Padre Island. We went to the beach access on the island during the week and ate and stayed in Port Isabel. Only negative is there is only parking for one car in front.

Rough start

After a pretty complicated beginning it got better. I appreciate the management taking care of the situation as promptly as possible other than getting a curtain the day before departure. It was nice to be on the water. My husband likes to fish, so being a a fishing pier was convenient. I wasn’t aware there were two sets of stairs but we managed to navigate through.

Not bad but could use improvements

This condo was clean and a good location but could use some attention. I would say it is more for a group of guys fishing but the boat slip/outdoors is lacking. It is a huge slip but has no cleats for tie down. So bring ample rope. Our ropes were not long enough on our bay boat. Also there are no outside lights to see or fish. We could not find any electrical outlets on the dock that worked also. There is a huge 20x30 deck with great views that would be amazing if there were more than 2 chairs.

Not What We Expected

Pictures are deceiving. The room with a couch and tiny bed has no privacy- it’s completely open to anyone coming and going from the home. Pictures made it seem that the dock had a railing, for safety reasons, but the porch was on the 2nd floor patio. Towels smelled like eggs, sheets and pillows smelt musty and old. There were hairs on the sheets, dead cockroach in the washer, very limited kitchen equipment— no pot holders, 1 knife to cut food, no foil to keep baking sheets clean, master bath shower curtain was completely backwards and gross, fish scales all over the dock- getting tracked in the house, garbage can was completely full outside, and parking instructions were very confusing once you arrived— street parking is a block away, making it hard to unload for a 4 day, 3 night stay. Will not return.

Good option close to everything

Pros: Right on the channel so you could step outside and fish. There was a space to clean your catch, too. Close to the lighthouse and some other sites in Port Isabel. Just a few blocks from the bridge to the island. Nice kitchen with plenty of space for cooking. Cons: 3-stories with lots of narrow stairs. You get a real workout staying here! Furniture is old and placement was odd. But we didn't spend much time inside, so not too big of a problem. Downstairs bathroom has newer shower but they left the old nasty door. Clean that thing up!!! Kitchen would be better with a few pot holders and real towels. It was hard to keep it clean with the cheapo paper towels. Also be nice to provide more ice trays since the freezer does not have an ice maker. Install a porch light! I nearly fell in the water as we were checking in after dark! Parking is tricky. Don't bring any more than one vehicle. Overall assessment: decent for the price, easily accessible to the bridge to the island and good access for fishing.

The house was nice, but the living room couch and sofa are in need of replacing. The kitchen area was nice and well furnished. The master bedroom was nice and comfortable. The three floors were a bit of a challenge for us as we are in our 70s, but we managed climbing the two flights of stairs okay. It’s easy access to shopping and SPI. Enjoyed the stay.

Good location

Location is good and good amenities. Clean, well appointed 3 level condo and modern. The A/C was making a noise that made it hard to sleep so we turned it off. Lots of space but there were also lots of steps which was a tad inconvenient. The shower door in the lower level also leaked. But we would stay again.
