Good spot

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location to the beach. Pool is huge and well “heated”. Condo was very clean. I’m always glad to have a washer and dryer while being at the beach. Felt very safe exercising around the property by myself.

The condo was very nice and the pool was amazing. The only drawback to this place is the location. There isn’t a beach within a five minute walk. It was a five minute drive.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The rental was very nice, with more than plenty of space for 6 people. It was well supplied and had everything we needed. The plus is that the right outside your door. The only issue we had was that our room was not ready at check-in. But we were kept informed on status from Padre Escapes. Very responsive. Great stay!

Cozy condo

The condo was really cute, cozy, clean and just what we needed. It was in front of the pool, which was a nice size and a really nice poool to cool off. We were super close to the beach. We really enjoyed our stay.

Great condo and great location

We loved the condo and the location! The pool was so cute and quaint. The only complaint is it definitely wasn’t quiet and relaxing. We were able to swim and enjoy a quiet night on Thursday, however, the clientele of other units arrived and it became a huge party. Loud music, and our neighbors were clearly smoking marijuana. I’m not trying to be a “Karen”, but it was a rough group. I don’t even think everyone at the pool were paying customers. Only suggestion is having more security and regulations enforced. We did love the comfort of the condo. Thank you.

Great location- unit needs updating/deep clean

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our 4th stay at village by the beach. We love the location and the family friendly layout with the pool. This unit, however, was by far the most unkempt of all the units we've stayed in. The concrete flooring is dirty and needs to be resurfaced. The area rug in the living room is very stained and dirty as well as the chair and couch covers. There was hair in the refrigerator and other spots where housekeeping cut corners. It was a shame because we love coming to village by the beach, but this unit felt subpar compared to the others we've stayed in.

Rental needs updates - stained couches

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our third time staying at this complex (first time at this particular condo). We love the location, close to the beach and the pool is always fun. BUT this rental needs some updates. The springs in the sofa make some serious noises, it’s very worn out and uncomfortable to sit on. The white armchair needs a new slipcover as there are some very obvious stains everywhere and overall looks filthy. The living room rug was also visibly stained; we tried to vacuum it and during our attempt to clean it we saw the underside and I wish we hadn’t. It was just so disgusting. I wish I could attach pictures. We eventually rolled the rug out of the way since we have a crawling baby that we didn’t want touching it and called management for sheets and blankets to cover both couches. It’s just so disappointing to pay so much money for those conditions as it left a really bad initial impression. The rest of the condo was clean and we had a great time.

Great little beach get away

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed our condo! It was just the right size for our family and the kids were in the pool daily. Nice and close to the beach, you could walk if you didn’t have to lug a bunch of beach stuff with you. It was mainly clean, the only reason I gave a 3 on cleanliness was that the floors were dirty still. They looked clean, but my feet got dirty walking on it. That’s to be expected I guess with a constant flow of beach sand in there though. The kitchen was decently stocked, but I thought they should have some basics on hand (salt/pepper/cooking oil or spray) maybe I’m just used to Airbnb whos kitchens are usually stocked with seasonings. The beds were comfortable and bathrooms were clean. The property was well taken care of and the kid splash areas all were functioning. I would definitely stay again and bring friends to stay too.

Family-friendly beach vacay

Nice location right next to the pool. We enjoyed being that close to the pool, but the trade off was having to walk a distance from parking to front door of condo. For us, this wasn’t a bad trade off. We were also surprised at how quiet it was being so close to the pool. Security made sure the pool closed down at night and soundproofing in the condo was great. Even when the pool was busy during the day we couldn’t hear anything inside. Check-in and out was super easy. We only needed basic communication, as we didn’t have any issues. Beach was only a short drive away. Really appreciated the outdoor hose to rinse off sand after a day at the beach. Pillows sucked- very flat, but beds were comfy. Fold out couch was miserable, could be a torture device. But honestly, I’ve never known a fold out couch that was comfortable. We have come to this area for several years and stayed many different places. This was one of the good ones.

Weekend trip

everything was very good. The only problem was the area above the icemaker needs to be cleaned. Something was spilled there(looked like a soda) which caused some of the ice to look dirty. Otherwise everything was great!
