Wonderful kid friendly pool, beach directly out front and a paved nearly one mile walkway along the beach for those who don’t like the sand. We will be coming again soon.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The owners have done a great job remodeling the condo. Looks like the master bath still needs work. The sleeper sofa had a coil mattress that was very uncomfortable, needs to be replaced. Overall, the place was in a great location and the condo was very nice.

Perfect stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Absolutely loved it. Partial view of the beach, fully stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, right on the beach, pool well maintained, internet very functional, great cable. Better than we expected. Saw maintenance around all weekend, making sure the facility was clean. Only drawn back was no washer and dryer. FYI - coffeemaker was regular style and bring liquid hand soap if you want it. Came with bar hand soap, trash bags, toilet paper, one roll of paper towels, dish soap, sponge. We were very happy with our stay.

Nice view and strong internet

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. 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: The view was nice from the balconies - especially the main bedroom. The internet was strong and fast which was useful since this was a working vacation. The main bedroom bed was so high they provide a stool in the closet. I am 5'5 and I needed the stool to get in the bed. But since I get up during the night I was afraid I would not be able to step on the stool in the dark so I slept in the other bedroom which had a comfortable bed. But I would have preferred to sleep in the main bedroom with my husband. Checkout time is 11am. On the last day my husband was loading luggage in the car around 10:30. The code had already been changed and he could not get in. Luckily I was still in the condo so I could let him in. In addition the cleaners showed up around 10:15. It made the last day annoying. Would help to have TV directions. Never figured what one remote was for in the secondary room.

60th Birthday!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was 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: The house was the perfect size for my family. It was the ideal location, so close to the beach. The only difficulty was that when I woke up I had 20 or more on my right side. All over! It was incredibly uncomfortable. The next morning I had similar bites on my left side. It was sole from sleeping in the master bedroom. No one else was bitten like I was. My daugther-n-law thought the bites looked like bed bug bites. Otherwise the house was perfect!

Perfect, clean location

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: My family of 6 adults enjoyed our stay and were all comfortable. Everything was clean and the location is perfect - right at the beach. I only wished that the curtains were more light blocking, especially because the parking lot light was right outside of our balcony, and that a few more things were left in the kitchen - some dish soap, for one. It was just too far too bright. I also think the showers need some extra maintenance but it's definitely an older building. The hot tub and pool were well maintained and nice to hang out in. There is plenty of parking just know that if you're on the 2nd level, you will need to climb stairs with your belongings. Overall, this place is a great location on the beach and near plenty of places to eat. The staff I interacted with was also extremely helpful and pleasant. We'd definitely stay again for the price.

Nostalgia

Rating Details: The property manager was very 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: I've been coming to Padre Island and staying at El Constante since I was a little girl! It's the perfect location and have loved seeing all the renovations over the years. Unit 212 was perfect for our stay. It was super clean and what a great kitchen! Loved the decor as well! The only suggestion I would make is to upgrade the shower fixtures. Thanks El Constante and Padre Escapes for a wonderful time for our large group (we rented 4 units this trip)!!!
