Thank you for the wonderful review! We’re so happy the home had everything you needed and that you enjoyed being just a short walk from the beach and so many South Padre Island favorites. It’s always nice when you can leave the car behind and easily enjoy the island! Hearing that you’d stay with us again means so much. We’d love to welcome you back for another great beach getaway!

Very happy with our stay

The apartment was very clean and spacious! I loved that the second bedroom had 2 beds and the second bathroom was very large. Parking is always a premium on the island and the two spaces for this unit are very long and easily fit a full sized car & truck. Location is good with many restaurants in a walkable distance and of the beach just 2 blocks away. We were very happy with our stay.

Apartment was wonderful

Everything was great. Only complaints are the master bedroom is in need of closet to hang clothes and better water pressure/shower head. Other than that, the apartment was wonderful.

Lovely home away from home, with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a very nicely appointed living/dining/kitchen space. The kitchen has all the tools you will need, including a toaster oven! The patio area out back with a grill is a super option, and the pool was very pleasant and fun for the kids.

This condo is #1 on our list for SPI, it was a beautiful well equipped condo. My family and I really enjoyed using the wagon and chairs for the beach ⛱️ that is literally a 1/2 block away. It's location is perfect, close to stores and several restaurants. My children enjoyed the pool and the board games. Overall our experience was Great, i truly recommend staying with SPI Rentals. They value their customers and are flexible if possible. I look forward on to booking again. Thank you SPI Rentals!

Inconvenience

Bed in spare bedroom was very poorly built and broke when son sat on edge of bed. Bed was holding on with one tiny screw. It took all day to fix and we had 3 different men trying to fix it. Not exactly comfortable leaving strangers in our condo while we went to the beach. Plus they didn't clean up after they left. Nothing was disinfected. As much as we paid in cleaning fees they should have at least sprayed lysol in the room. Dishwasher was broken too and couldn't be fixed. Dirty water leaked all over the kitchen.

Hi Anabell, thank you for taking time to leave us feedback from your stay. We want to apologize again for the maintenance issue that you encountered with the bed frame and dishwasher. While we were able to resolve the issue with the bed during your stay, we are truly sorry for any inconvenience this caused you and your guests. We appreciate your feedback regarding disinfecting work areas and will be reviewing this with our teams as well. In regards to the dishwasher, unfortunately, a part was required to make the repair which we were not able to get during your stay. We regret that we were not able to get the part sooner, but have since been able to make this repair. Thank you again for staying with us and allowing us the opportunity to address these concerns. Best regards, Ashleigh T., General Manager - SPI Rentals

Rain Dancer 2

First off let me say that the rental property team was excellent and very professional. They gave us a great price and some incentives to make our stay more comfortable. Upon arrival the condo is located in a great and safe area. The interior was roomy and very comfortable. All rooms were spacious to include the restrooms. Once we got comfortable, unpacked and started getting ready for dinner we noticed the lack of cleanliness. The dishes still had food on them, the towels had to be rewashed as they were still stains on them. Pans had food caked on. The floor had patches of sand. Living room was dirty with rice and other food on the carpet. The final issue was on our second day we found a colony of ants on the stove cook top.These issues were reported and the ant problem was addressed. We're a humble family and dont wish to bash your company, we just think if these issues are addressed you would have a top notch condo. Maybe a new cleaning team. Other than that the place was great and would consider staying there again.

Nightmare trip

5/31-Day of trip 3 hours in,phone call from spi rentals who rent property we picked isnt available due to a leak found by the hoa. We had to pull over with family to pick somewhere to stay. Wouldn’t have been an issue to pick something else through but had to pick a place through spi rentals and was quite limited in choices in the bracket they gaveus.Veryupsetting/Delayed us an hour. my autistic toddler was very restless and I needed to get back on the road. dilemma is when we pick a place it is fitted for the needs of all but especially our 4yr autistic son who is very danger prone when it comes to running off and water related places/ . So I need a ground floor when carrying him or he tries to dart and a place with the door knobs not handles because that is the safety lock covers I had brought. a pool with a gate like other autistic kids he is drawn to water and a big worry he will get out a door and go immediately for water. The 1st place we had was a no go door wise and also electrical issues and knats/gross smell. Was 2nd fl/big parking lot to cross. I was crying due to the stress of what ifs. my son already going out the sliding/handle doors. Moved to next place and it was clean/w door handles and pool gate but 2nd fl and full beds for hubs and I and two teens. Exhausted going upstairs for 2nd location. I tried Vrbo to give us something to fit needs and rep says only if we aren’t offered another by rental. We should get what we pay for to meet our needs. Was awful time

Hi Lori, We sincerely apologize again for the issues you encountered with your stay. As you mentioned, we were not able to accommodate you in this rental due to the HOA having found a leak and having to do emergency repairs. We are deeply sorry for the inconvenience that this caused you and hope you can understand that this was beyond our control. We did our best to find you alternative accommodations that would meet most of your needs and regret that they fell short of your expectations. We truly hope you have a better experience in the future. Sincerely, Ashleigh T., General Manager

accommodations

Accommodations were fine. Some noise in surrounding area but it all was quiet by 11:00. We would have preferred the Rain Dancer on Retama. No shower rugs - not a good idea! Would have been nice to have one blanket in case air conditioning was too cold.

Wonderful vacation!

The place was perfect for our family of 4. The rooms were very clean and the beds were so comfortable. A quick easy walk to the beach that was convenient for lugging all our beach necessities. The pool was often busy, but my kids both still found time to use it without anyone else there. We would stay here again and recommend it for families! Great location!
