We really enjoyed our stay. The rental property was clean and nicely furnished. Great location near the pool and where we parked but tucked away in a corner unit so it was very convenient but also private. One area for improvement would be the patio. It needs a good power washing and cleaning.

This rental has a great floor plan and was just right for our small family. It would even work for a larger family as the sofa bed and hidden bed could certainly accommodate 4 more. The location was perfect, the Village by the Beach complex and unit itself were very clean. The place overall is very accommodating and we were able to bring our dog! I highly recommend this rental.

Nice place, but there were a few problems. There were ants on the counter by the sink and I killed most of them, the water pressure downstairs was bad and every morning the lawn people were out and blowing dirt all over the patio furniture so we couldn't sit outside and enjoy the morning. Overall we did like the place and would go there again. The interior was well maintained.

This is a lovely condo. There was plenty of seating, and a patio with a hose to rinse off from the beach. The beds were all comfortable, and there was a washer/dryer, which is always nice, as well as a few kitchen appliances. I have two suggestions. The condo had some extra pillows, but not pillow cases for them. It advertised having a Keurig, so I brought pods, but when I got there, it was a regular coffee make. The pool is a few steps down the sidewalk, and the beach is about a 5-7 minute walk. We also appreciated that it was pet-friendly, but super clean. I'd definitely stay here again.

We rented this condo for a short stay at the beach with our dog. We'd stayed in a adjacent property last year, and this one is just as convenient to the beach, shopping, and restaurants. Property was very clean and well stocked. (No foods or even spices, but this is standard in beach rentals.) Living area, kitchen, and master were all on the ground floor, so it was easy for people and dog to get around. I give Padre Escapes highest marks for a property management company. We have stayed at one of their properties before and their communication, friendliness, and professionalism are the best and most consistent I've seen. Would definitely stay at this property (or another Padre Escapes property) again.

Pros: We had a great time at Padre Escapes. The pool was steps away and the adult side was warm. Had a shelf for toddler to play in. The beach was a short walk/drive away. The place was spacious and the beds were comfortable. Kitchen was well appointed with pots, pans and dishes. Loved having a full size washer/dryer in unit. The only cons we had were: toddler pool was not heated, no extra pillow cases, we have a toddler and the patio gate was awesome but would of been nice to have a baby gate at the top and bottom of steps. This was also the first place we stayed at that didn’t have seasonings stocked in the cabinets.

Great condo. Love the location of this condo in the complex, right on the end so somewhat private with parking very close by. Great access to pool. Pool was heated, but could have definitely been a little warmer! Condo has all of the dishes, pots and pans you could need. Games and tv’s with Netflix and Amazon Prime we enjoyed. Washer, dryer, dishwasher, 2 full baths (one with shower, one with tub/shower). King bed downstairs, 2 queen beds upstairs, and full size pull out bed in a dresser in living room. This complex is 1 block back from beach, so easy walk over to beach. Overall, we love Village by the Beach complex and would definitely stay in this unit again!
