Beautiful condo right on the beach with two large balconies. Condo was well furnished and had everything we needed. Comfortable bedding and furniture. Good streaming features on the tv's. Good location.
Took the family to SPI for the first time and loved it! Great, quiet location with easy beach access. Amazing views! We even happened to be in town for Space X launch and watched from the balcony, although the beach would have been even better. Nice condo for a relaxing getaway.

Amazing rental experience!
Renting with SPI Rentals was a truly wonderful experience. Instructions were clear and there is an on-island office that's open most of the time in case of any issues. The property was exactly as described and was clean and extremely comfortable on top of having a completely stunning view. Thank you!

This was our 3rd time staying at the Inverness and although an older building, you cannot beat the views from this penthouse! To be able to see the sunrise and sunset/moonrise all from the balcony was incredible! We will definitely be back!

Lots of good memories made here with our kids.
Beautifully decorated condo with everything you need. Perfect location right on the beach with huge wraparound balcony. You have access to pool and hot tub as well. Condo is spacious and well maintained. Our dishwasher was broken but and a fuse burned out, but maintenance fixed both issues. Lots of good memories made here with our kids.

Very nice place to stay, would book it again.
Nice place, very clean and roomy. The balconies are great! Wish they had beach towels, chairs etc as well as a small cooler. If you travel by air you'll have to rent / purchase these items and leave there. If you drive bring them with you. Very nice place to stay, would book it again. Thank you.
Unit was very clean and spacious. Was updated very well however overall property was in need of maintenance and update. Could not beat the view from the wraparound balcony.

Place is nice, checkin sux
Facilities are very nice, the view is incredible. Having to check in online, at SPI rentals, and at the facility as well. Sux!
The condo was perfect for our group. Large and spacious. Very clean and had everything you'd need including all the kitchen utensils you'll need. They even supplied some S&P and cooking oil. Very nice touch.
This condo is probably one of the best we've stayed in in the 10+ years we've been coming to SPI.
Management company was very communicative and easy to deal with.
We'll be staying here again for sure.

The unit and location is great, and neighbors are friendly. The only issue is the smell in the master bath shower. It may be sewer or what's behind the tile, which has quite a bit of grout missing.

The view was amazing! Beds were very comfortable! Check in process was easy although inconvenient to check in at 2 locations. Only had one key fob which is difficult to get to the beach if your whole group isn't going together. Ran out of toilet paper and paper towels. The patio was amazing but your feet get filthy dirty (needs to be mopped).overall a beautiful place and would come back. Feel for the money, more toilet paper and paper towels should be supplied and if more then 2 people are staying a second key fob is necessary.

Wonderful #901
We had a great stay here! We came to spend Christmas Holiday and we were not disappointed. It literally is just feet from the beach. The accomodations were nice. Comfy furniture, swivel chairs were great to view TV and ocean! The beds were comfy and bedrooms were roomy especially the master. The wrap around balcony was wonderful and spacious! It was the entire breadth & width of the condo from living area to master bedroom. There were plenty of bath towels and hotel size shampoo & conditioners. E♥️

Great room and view but needs better maintenance.
The room was nice, clean, and as advertised. However the bathroom ceiling started leaking after a strong storm, causing large water filled bubbles in the paint. Notified front desk but management email was undeliverable. Elevators were inoperable during most of our stay. Great location, views, parking, etc. Just needed better maintenance.

SPI Stay
Getting information from SPI before the trip was like pulling teeth. They didn’t tell us about going right to the condo until I kept asking questions. They gave me incorrection information about getting from the airport to S Padre so we didn’t have transportation. Luckily there was a taxi van at the airport that would accommodate all of us. The condo smelled and we had to keep the doors open at all times.

Hi Kristy, thank you for taking time to send us feedback from your stay. We sincerely apologize for any misinformation our team provided regarding transportation from the airport to the island. We do try to assist our guests and answer any travel questions if possible, but it is always best to contact the transportation services directly to get the most accurate and up to date information. In regards to the smell, we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. The information has been shared with our maintenance team and we are looking into the issue. We are deeply sorry for any inconvenience this caused you and hope that otherwise you enjoyed your time on South Padre Island. Sincerely, Ashleigh T., General Manager
Parking is horrible if you drive a truck. Bring fans bc this place has no ceiling fans or overhead lights. The worst part was the smell! Every time you take a shower, it smells like a sewer. After a few days, it ALWAYS smelled like a sewer, so we had to go! They gave us another place, but it wasn’t oceanfront, and while they did compensate us for the difference, our vacation was already RUINED.

Hi Christi, we sincerely apologize again for the issues you encountered during your stay with the shower smell. Please know that since your departure, this has been resolved and we have not had any additional issues. We understand it was not ideal, but we had hoped that by relocating you to another condo and offering compensation, you would be able to enjoy the rest of your vacation. We are truly sorry to hear that this was not the case. We hope that you will consider staying with us again and allowing us the opportunity to deliver a better experience next time.

Overall not a good experience with SPI rental they called us on the arrival day saying that the room that we booked is not available, we can put you on another room. Then they called us again saying oh that room smell bad you wouldn't like it. They put us on the 3rd room and that room was not cleaned at all. We finally got another room the next day which was #901 it's was nice.

We hope that you can understand these issues are very rare and could not have been predicted or prevented. We are glad that ultimately you did enjoy the Inverness condo.

It was ok but probably won’t return
The condo it’s self was nice but the lack of a in the condo washer and dryer will be the main reason we won’t come back. The building staff was mostly rude leaving notes taped to our car doors about silly stuff like no front license plate, golf carts, or that our truck was too long was not necessary. No gate key fobs provided. Double charged us for our stay, took 4 days to refund. No bed spread on master bed. Small assortment of kitchen tools. No kitchen hand towels or soap. Stay was good but will probably choose another place next trip to South Padre.

Spring Break 2023
Area of condo was perfect and views were gorgeous. We would stay here again. There was a couple things that would have made the stay a little smoother. There was an issue with the keyfob needed to park and use the private entrance to the beach. SPI said Iverness had it, Iverness said SPI had it. SPI said they would find out where it was and call me back, but I didnt get a return call. If you stay, make sure they give you one. In the end, we ended up getting a loaner keyfob from the Iverness desk. Washer / dryer is a shared set for the building. It worked well, but costs $3.25 to do a load. So, take quarters if you plan to use them. Kitchen was stocked with everything except coffee cups. We honestly had a great stay and would stay again. Giving 4 stars only because I was frustrated with the handling of the keyfob.
