We have stayed here several times and each time we leave with no complaints. The views from the balcony are absolutely amazing as well as having access to the beach immediately after stepping out of the garage. We booked our next vacation before this one even ended and are already looking forward to coming back to our little home away from home.
Just one of the many sunrises we have enjoyed from the balcony.

I absolutely loved my stay at this one-bedroom beachfront condo! The view was breathtaking — waking up to the sound of the waves and watching the sunrise right from the balcony felt like a dream. The condo was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The location couldn’t be better — just steps from the beach and close to great restaurants and shops. It was peaceful, relaxing, and exactly what I was hoping for. I can’t wait to come back again!

Another amazing vacation has come and gone and we have already booked our return trip in October. As usual everything in the condo was perfect the balcony being our favorite place to watch the sunrise in the morning and listen to the waves before heading to bed. We have been coming here for several years now and will continue as we absolutely love this place.

Beach getaway

Enjoyed escaping stormy weather in North TX for some beach time. There was a continuous breeze which made it pleasant. We enjoyed our beach walks and bird watching time. Our dog enjoyed catching his frisbee in the surf. There was some seaweed and a few jellyfish to watch for.. the condo was clean and has a marvelous view.

Perfect beach vacation!

We love this condo - this was our second year staying here. The view of the ocean, access to the beach, proximity to the bird & turtle sanctuary, all incredible benefits. The parking garage with guaranteed parking makes travel to multiple restaurants easy. The tidy in-house kitchen and near-by Blue Marlin market make eating in a delightful option. Thank you again to our very helpful host! We will likely return again next year.

Nice beach trip

The check in process was easy, as was parking. There are two elevators to make it simple to get to the condo. We were on the beach in no time with the beach access. We did not use the pool or hot tub. The condo could use some paint/updating, but we had everything we needed and were comfortable.

Beautiful Views

My wife and I stayed at the end of August and the Beache & location was awesome. The beaches, condo and town were everything and more of what we expected - definitely going to go back. For only being a one bedroom the Condo has a great layout which provides plenty of room for a mid-size family or a couple couples. Would recommend this location to anyone!!

We had an amazing stay at this Inverness condo in South Padre Island—easily a five-star experience from start to finish.The location is unbeatable—right on the beach, with direct access just steps from the building. Waking up to the sound of the waves and watching the sunrise from the private balcony was a daily highlight. The views were absolutely stunning.The condo itself was clean, well-stocked, and exactly as described. Everything we needed for a comfortable stay was provided, from a full kitchen to beach essentials. The bed was comfortable, the A/C worked great (a must for South Texas), and the Wi-Fi was reliable.The building was quiet and felt secure, and the rooftop pool and hot tub were a great bonus with ocean views. Parking was easy, and check-in/check-out was smooth and hassle-free.We really appreciated how close the unit was to everything—restaurants, shops, and activities were all within a short drive or walk.If you're looking for a relaxing beachfront getaway in South Padre, this place checks all the boxes. I will definitely be on the lookout for this rental next year!

Can’t beat the view of this property. Could use a fresh coat of paint but overall it was ok. The bath needs to be updated, especially the sink cabinet. It was clean and the bed was comfortable. The hosts food recommendations were awesome.

About the host

Hosted by Carol Bolstad

Host profile image
We live on South Padre Island full time enjoying the surf and kite boarding. When w4e started coming to SPI, we have lived in this condo in the winter and added the little things that make it more comfortable like a place to hang your keys when you come in the door and extra hooks in the bathroom for wet swim suits. All the paintings have beach themes to add to the island feel too. We live two block away from the condo now so can respond quickly if you need anything during your stay. We can often be seen kiteboarding in front of the condo after work.

Why they chose this property

South Padre Island has the island feel yet is convenient to get to. Its as far south as you can get in the west. It has the largest balconies on the island. All of them look directly at the water. You can play directly out from your condo and if you drop a penny over the balcony, it will land in the beach sand!

What makes this property unique

The sunrises and sunsets from the 9th floor are amazing. Being slightly higher and look down, you can see the dolphin in the water that you can't see from the lower floors.
