Studio Condo

This condo is updated and has everything you need to enjoy your stay on SPI. The host took care of anything we needed promptly, and made sure everything was stocked that we needed for an enjoyable stay. We had easy beach access and could walk to restaurants and stores. We stayed for 2 months and enjoyed it very much!

Return trip after 20+ years

My daughter and I drove from Arkansas to see Port Isabel and South Padre Island for the first time in 20 years. Perfect accommodations for us. The studio condo had everything we needed. It was super clean and comfortable. Would love a return trip...but not waiting another 20 years!

Exactly what we needed

Its a nice little spot, nothing fancy, nothing bad... exactly what we needed for a quick getaway. Don't expect to cook a big meal or lounge in luxury... Just a small space to grab some sleep between activities. Overall a great experience

Pictures don't do it justice

Great rental experience. The only thing I didn't like was the foam mattress (I need firm mattress). The place actually looks nicer than the pictures show.... need professional pics to show how nice it really is.

Nice little condo

Wife and I really enjoyed the condo. Condo was small but perfect for the 2 of us. Very easy beach access. We did not use the pool, but it looked nice and well maintained. We had one minor issue when the toilet tank just stopped refilling. One call and the problem was repaired in a timely manner. Overall we were extremely satisfied with our stay

Advertising is lacking accuracy

The place was small, floors were dirty and the bed and couch were dilapidated. Tired and not happy. Watch out for the board. We were threatened with a fine when my handicapped husband parked in handicap parking. The Jeep was on the red line.

Could have been a great experience...

The unit was not clean, The AC was broken, and communication and concern about the broken AC with the host was poor. A solution was provided several hours later only after I had already booked a non-refundable stay at another hotel. It seemed that I was not taken seriously. The location to the beach was fantastic and instructions for check in was easy. I hope the host will increase communication to resolve issues as this would have greatly improved my experience.
