Top South Padre Island Hotel Reviews

Courtyard by Marriott South Padre Island

8/10 Good

"We usually stay at a family condo when we visit SPI, but we thought we'd try a hotel instead. The check-in was quick. There was no hand soap in the bathroom, and I had to call for some. Parking was a bit inconvenient at times, since most of it is across the street. Housekeeping came very late in the day, and I just took some clean towels from her. The pool was clean and water temp conformable. We didn't try the breakfast since we have our favorite restaurants we like to visit."

Isla Grand Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Enjoyed the stay"

Padre South Hotel On The Beach

8/10 Good

"The staff was fantastic and super friendly. I gave it 4-stars because the rooms are dated (sofa very soft, mirror with corrosion, super old stove). The weekend breakfast is "meh" --- just junk food for the masses and only 2 hours a morning. If the hotel was updated it would be fantastic. The bed was very good and my partial ocean view was very good. Much quieter than the "rose" hotel at the other end of the island. Overall, very good experience."

Super 8 by Wyndham South Padre Island
