The condo was updated design and very clean. The bed was also extremely comfortable. The location is great, steps from the beach. My husband is allergic to cats and dogs so we booked this place because of the no pet policy but he did have a reaction, take that with a grain of salt. I would definitely stay here again. Quiet, mostly older adults, and calm environment.

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the updated design, cleanliness, comfortable bed, and great location just steps from the beach—it sounds like it was a relaxing stay overall. We do want to kindly note that while this property follows a no-pet policy, service animals are permitted in accordance with regulations, so we can’t fully guarantee that a service animal has not previously been in the condo. We understand sensitivities can vary and appreciate you sharing your experience. We’d love to have you back again in the future!

Not bad for a beach house

We chose this property because it was walking distance to the beach. Everyone we dealt with was super nice and the pool was awesome. We expressed some concerns about the stove and the cleanliness of the bathroom and they took us very seriously and assured us it was not their standard. Would stay here again!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Rm 132 was everything we expected and chose from online registration. Property was clean and nicely decorated. Amenities all complete except for a much needed blender to make our margaritas. 😂 We did notice one other set back....the pool. 2 plastic water bottles floating around plus young adults with glass beer bottles which really shouldn’t be allowed by pool area. Aside from that...a comfortable visit.

We like to come every summer with our kids to El Constance and we used to stay in this room too . Nice bathroom, nice kitchen nice ambience . The table I thought it was too small having in mind that we are 4 people in my family .It was hard to all eat in the same time . The only problem it was that we notice one of the drawer was not put together and when we mention it they were very prompt and called back to schedule a time to repair it .

Padre Escapes Review

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: We loved the El Constante 132 unit. Staff at the condo were great and accommodating. Upon our arrival, the power was out at the property from a storm, obviously at no fault to Padre Escapes. However, had we received communication from Padre Escapes that morning when the power went out at 10 AM (according to the AEP link that was later sent in a text from Padre Escapes for tracking the outage), instead of at 3 PM that afternoon, we could have postponed our arrival (coming from San Antonio so not too far) instead of showing up unknowingly to a condo without power and having to find a different hotel that night.

Small but cozy

We had a good time. Nice to be right on the beach. Pool was heated and I wish I had noticed that because it wasn’t good to swim except at night. Not sure why it’s heated in the summer. One weird thing that happened, the light in the bedroom kept cutting on randomly throughout the night two of the nights. Not sure why so it interrupted our sleep every hour or two. The person who answered my question Through the Vrbo app seemed a little rude as well and took 7 hours to reply to a simple question. Check in instructions weren’t sent until after 4pm as well.
