The location is great which I know is what we paid for, but the house is not great. Could not get from downstairs to upstairs without going outside which made us change sleeping arrangements and the downstairs group feel excluded. Couch was dirty and just slick on edges, only one TV upstairs. I know it said older, but was overpriced. Needs to at least put TV downstairs.

Very old condo
Water didn’t work on arrival. Washer and dryer were not available because of damage to garage door. Roof had damage and rain water started to leak in the home during rain.

The downstairs area has mice that get on top of the bed, also in your bags when you're not looking. This was not what we were expecting, We had to get another place.

Perfect location
This house is exactly as they say, an older house that is kept up and taken care of. It is RIGHT ON THE BEACH though the access has some brambles so walk carefully with flip-flops. There was nothing we really lacked having there and it was comfortable. Could it use updating? Sure, but we were told what to expect by the managers prior to booking so no surprises were had. I would absolutely rent again for a relaxing trip with the kids.

Horrible experience
We stayed here for 2 reasons. The walkable direct access to the beach and a home we could all be in directly together. Horrible experience. Would never stay there again especially for the price during off season. The bottom section shouldn't even be available to rent. No clear walkway to the beach from the back deck. Stairs were blocked off due to high plants. Grass was so high you couldn't walk to beach. Stickers all along path to access beach. Old rusted chairs , two broke after my elderly mother and cousin sat on it. Such a hazardous and dangerous situation. Gladly nobody was hurt. Downstairs was disgusting. Whole section reaked of mold. AC vent was only in hall way , no circulation or vents in either rooms. Room closest to back porch was so hot. Thankfully it was a breezy and cool weekend. Portable fans were in room but didn't work only one that was small. Restroom was gross. Black gunk on baseboards. Shower rods rusted. Black markings all along shower. Bed in one of the rooms was lopsided. The top and bottom sections are separated, not together. You have to walk outside and up the stairs to gain access to upstairs section. Had I known this we would've just stayed in 2/3 separate condos or hotel rooms. Top section was nice , could've used a few touch ups but was the best section of the whole place. If it hadn't been for the top section being nice we probably would've left. Fridge didn't get cold at all. They did have pots pans and silverware for us to cook with. TV upstairs worked. Not sure about downstairs, couldn't get it too work. Washer nor dryer worked properly. We had to ring out clothes because they were soaked. Had to dry clothes about 3 times. Unannounced maintenance man came in during our stay to changed our AC filters The vents and filters were so filthy , after he changed it looked like it had been there for months. Not sure exactly what caused this but after leaving and returning home , multiple family members found bites on them possibly from bed bugs , either from upstairs couch or beds. Horrible experience if it hadn't been for the top section and it taking us 6 hours driving to get there would've just left.

Disgusting
Property filthy and falling apart, black mold downstairs, shower curtain filthy, cockroaches and mice. Not enough towels for 16 people and washer did not work. Only plus was access to beach and view, but not enough to pay the rental price. The property should be demolished and rebuilt. I would never recommend and I believe we should be given a partial refund. STAY AWAY!!

Beautiful View
This property was what it said it was, Beach Chic. Our family loved the view from the balcony as well as the short walk to the beach. Plenty of room for the family and many great memories were made.

That View!
This place was clean. It sleeps a lot of people! It does need a lot of updating, but the price was right. The beach access was our very own. There were not many people in on the beach in that area. It was a wonderful stay away from others. There is a charcoal grill in the garage that we pulled out and used. At night we loved sitting outside on the deck and enjoying the view and the company. The staff at Rent On Padre were fabulous! We will be back!

Amazing location, cozy house
You just can't beat this location. The house is functional, and you can walk to the beach and numerous island shops, and the house has in-lot parking, so you don't have to worry about street parking. As noted by others, the downstairs is musty, and would not be good for those with mold allergies, and the accommodations are tight, but it's a great getaway location for those who can put up with those things.

Love that Deck!
The house is in a great location....it is right on the beach! Fabulous newer deck, although, it could use some new chairs. We just used our beach chairs. Lots of parking, you know how teens are, they want to drive their own car. The house was clean. That is the most important thing to us. It does look like it needs a bit of updating, but you can tell they keep it clean. We liked that there was space for everyone in our group. But that view from the porch, that was everything to us. Plus our own beach access. Thank you Rent On Padre for taking good care of us!

Great View
We had a great time. It is a quirky older house as described in the online listing. Everything worked dishwasher, washer drier ect. The lower level was a bit musty smelling. We only used the upper level bedrooms because I was not comfortable having either of my youngish children sleeping so separated from us. You have to go outside to get to the lower bedrooms and the washer/ dryer. We were fine only using the 2 upstairs bedrooms but it could be an issue for other familys. We have a small RV that we drove to South Padre. The driveway is very very long and would have been fine for even a much longer RV or several cars.
