Perfect girlfriend get-away. We went the first weekend in October and we had the beach to ourselves. So awesome to wake up every morning and see the beach from our kitchen and sit out on the patio drinking coffee. The unit clean and was recently updated with current paint colors and nice tile flooring. The beach was big and interesting. To the right is a huge naval ship and to the left a pier. Lots of great restaurants close by too . . . Blackbeards is a definite stop and Landrys and Joe's Crab Shack were fun, right there on the water. I highly suggest you venture to Snoopy's Pier ABSOLUTELY THE BEST FISH & CHIPS EVER, and if you crave Mexican you gotta drive just 4 minutes to Iguana's (in Portland). We jumped in the car one day and spent the day at the beach in North Padre. Just a 20 minute drive and well worth it. We loved staying at Elaine's condo. Best bang for the buck if you wanna stay in Corpus and get beach front! We will definitely be coming back. Thank you so much Elaine for your hospitality!!!

Booked the condo over labor day weekend and was able to check in at 12:00... good. The place had a terrible smell so we opened a door to air it out hoping that would help and went to lunch for a couple of hours. Back at 2:00 and the smell was still there. No way we could have stayed the night so we dropped off the key and I let the owner know. She was very nice but billed us for the night anyway. Well, that was our experience.

We stayed at one of Elaine's Condo's.........and let me tell you, she is the sweetest nicest person ever. She was very helpful and went out of her way to make sure that my family and I were very happy!! She really worked with us and met all of our needs. The Condo's are a little small but there were 6 of us and it was still perfect. Who goes to the beach to stay inside anyways? The staff in the front office was also really nice. It is in the perfect location right on the beach with 2 great seafood restaurant's within walking distance. We live a couple hours away so I am very happy that we found a place that we can return to on a regular basis. Thanks Elaine!!

I am a mother of 1 and went down to stay with Elaine's Condos and had the best time ever. Elaine was so helpful and kind when I spoke to her on the phone and gave me a great deal. She did warn me about the construction going on outside but the condo was beautiful. I had no complaints. I did have a problem trying to get in to the condo but I just called her and she ran right over to help me and was as nice as can be. I definitely recommend anyone wanting to stay at the condos to call her for the best experience for a great price.

Owner response:Thank you for staying with me. I am happy to hear you had a great stay. I look forward to hearing from you on your next stay.
