About this property

FRESH BEACH FRONT CONDO WITH LARGE BALCONY TO SOAK UP THE OCEAN VIEWS MUST CPIX

Completely redone and now with two gorgeous convenient bathrooms - -Unit 303 has the best views in the buikdobg because it is a top floor condo that sits right in the middle and boasts unobstructed perfect views of the Sea. The unit is in a safe and family friendly cozy building that is first line on the beach with no gimmicks! Imagine yourself getting a view of the beach the moment you turn your key and walk in! You can continue dreaming away as you cook in the fully renovated Stainless Steel and Quartz Kitchen or sit in the lovely living areas to relax while enjoying the amazing views from all vantage points. Enjoy a glass on the nice sized balcony or fall asleep to the calming sounds of the ocean with a king size bed that has awe inspiring views of it in the master bedroom. Come as a couple for a romantic get away or as a family while the kids and other adults sleep in a separate room that has a very functional Bunk and bed arrangements to fit all. The second bedroom has a Twin XL (larger than a full mattress) over Queen Bed with a Twin Trundle right under, thus, offering several combinations possible. All in all the Condo can comfortably fit 6people but it can easily accommodate up to two families (8 total) We just ask that you inquire for this special arrangement. Whichever way you plan your stay the Beach is right there! Right in front of you to enjoy it and accessible through a short wood and sand path that leads you straight to it. The Dunes and Flora protect you from sand storms on your balcony and provide such a beautiful scenery.
We provide a plethora of beach toys as well as chairs and umbrella you can borrow. We bought this place and went straight to work on it, sparing no expense. Needless to say, the Condo underwent major renovations. It has been stripped down and EVERYTHING was replaced. Please note that our prices are based on what the brand new condo now looks like and has to offer in the end, compared to its previous state and also, others in the area. Towels, linens, parking, etc. are all included in the price per night) The VRBO reservation service, cleaning fee, tax are added to the final quote. A Fee per additional guest could also apply. You are welcome to see other units at the Continental to compare amenities, views, etc. Just know that each unit has a different owner and taste. Everyone is very nice and if you can't stay at ours maybe try in one of theirs :). From the images you can see we went for a modern and functional fresh look adding Quartz, Granite, Custom Cabinetry, Stainless steel and a maritime feel in the decor of our Condo. This is also a home for us so we did not cut corners or expenses on any needed repairs/updates and everything we did was done with functionality and the best intention. If upon reading the reviews you have doubts don’t hesitate to send me an email or look at other references. You may want to see our other property in Italy (we work and live there part time) but it also rents and you can gather our serious intentions from our excellent reviews there. The link for Tuscany, Italy is: VRBO Listing #376809
Or our recent piece of mountain heaven. Ski Chalet in Angel Fire New Mexico. VRBO Listing # 1252333
I guess one way to sum it up, is that for us, its all about the view and enjoying life, so we are confident you will feel the same way when you stay at Unit 303 at the Continental! We simply ask you to be respectful of our things as we welcome you to it. Thank you and happy beaching :)

Wonderful stay

We had a wonderful stay at the condo. The owner was very responsive upon check-in and even addressed where to find the parking permits immediately when we were unsure of the process. We were beachside and the walk was less than a minute to get our toes on the sand. It’s a great location, clean and had the most wonderful views. We will definitely be staying a few more times this summer!!!

Great location!

Loved being right on the beach. Condo was sufficient but lighting in main bath was very dim. Teens wanted to watch TV before falling asleep so they slept on the couch in the living room due to no TV in second bathroom. Make sure you understand this is a 3rd floor condo which makes for a fabulous view but if you are not fit hauling all your luggage, etc…to and from the condo is difficult.

Great Location

The location is great! Right on the beach, small other homes or condos near by- no large high rises. Great for sunrises! Beds are comfortable. Laundry is not in the unit- it is checked that there is laundry but you have to pay for it down the hall.

Amazing View

We had the amazing opportunity of staying in this beautiful condo. It felt like a much needed home away from home. Access and parking for the condominium were convenient. The ocean-side view is perfect. The first thing we did was walk the beach and stroll back on the bay side. The condo had plenty of board games and room to chat, play, and disconnect. I recommend this condo as your home away from home.

An Oasis

We had a wonderful time. The condo is beautifully updated with such designer high end features. Everything is so comfortable and pretty. The kitchen is very well appointed with everything you could need. The beds are so comfortable with great mattresses and cozy sheets. Best of all is the amazing view! We sat for hours on the balcony enjoying the gulf breezes and view. The beach access is very easy, walk right down the boardwalk and you are there. The owner was very friendly and easy to work with. We had a wonderful trip with many cherished memories.

Amazing condo

Loved the condo everything brand new beautiful view of the ocean. The owners are ver quick to answer your calls if something is wrong. The only 2 things that I didn't like was the walk to the beach didn't have a ramp so the sand was very hot so we went another way and it is very easy to tract sand into the condo other than that everything was perfect!!!

Everything was perfect except for the weather!

This little condo is clean and well decorated. Sits right on the ocean front with an easy walk to the beach. Central in S. Padre. Small pool. Deck across the back is small but has a beautiful view. The condo has everything you need for cooking and visiting the beach. Only problem with our stay was it was too cold to sit out on the deck! No fault of anyone.

Pick this Beach Condo! You will be Glad you did

After searching meticulously for the perfect place for our much needed beach vacation getaway, I found this lovely beachfront condo. It has the perfect updated decor, making the condo feel both beachy and cheery. Everything was clean and tidy. Nothing better than stepping out onto the balcony to enjoy the view and sound of the rolling waves. We also walked along the beach and pleasantly found it to be not crowded. Maybe due the time of year. Overall, excellent experience. Easy booking process, check in, and check out.

A Wonderful Time Had by All

This property was great in all respects. Easy access to the beach facilitated coming and going when we felt like it. The beach was not crowded. Sitting on the balcony watching the waves was a relaxing alternative, while our granddaughter preferred a dip in the pool as a change of pace. Parking was convenient. And, of course, the apartment itself was comfortable and well-appointed. No downsides. The five of us (three generations) thoroughly enjoyed our stay. I would recommend it without hesitation. Dave

Perfect Place for Our Mother/Daughter Weekend

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at SPI in this condo and will definitely see if it is available next year. My adult daughter and I spent the weekend in SPI (an annual tradition). One of our favorite places to have lunch/a drink/listen to music and has a great view of the beach is Wanna Wanna Grille, and this condo is a super short walk via the beach or sidewalk along the road. The condo itself is super cute, very clean and well stocked with the essentials. It is decorate bright and cheerful. I love how the balconies are built. You feel like you are out there on your own watching the sunrise. The beds are very comfy. Nice towels for the showers. The large parking lot across the street was really convenient. Plenty of parking spots. I have nothing but positive things to say about this place and hope to return soon.

Easter stay at beachfront rental

The building was not what we expected when we arrived. The building exterior and balcony rails need a coat of paint. The boardwalk was uneven and should reach the beach; we should not have to hike through the sand trail with debris in it to get there. Vegetarian by the pool needs much improvement. At the gate to the beach, the shower is in need of repair. The kitchen accessories needs improving, such as better quality pans, serving dishes, chip bag clips, ceram wrap/aluminum foil, cleaning spray, I am of the opinion that as long as the dishes have been cleaned in or gone through a cycle of the dishwasher, we should not have to put the dishes away. Also, we were in need of more trash bags than provided. On the positive side, the beds were comfortable and the unit was clean. We enjoyed the view of the ocean from the balcony. We appreciate the boogie boards and beach toys. Beach access was excellent. Ample parking. I know the location cannot be helped, but it was on a busy street and we had to exercise caution when crossing the street to reach our vehicle.

About the host

Hosted by Erika Pellegrino

Host profile image
We are a young and self made hard working couple with 2 kids that simply enjoy life too much and want to seize every moment.We both work endlessly to make our dreams and those of our children, come true. My husband works long hours at DELL and travels quite a bit while I own a Swim School in Austin and am a Drowning Prevention Specialist, teaching the ISR Method to children during Summer time.

Why they chose this property

We are all about the views and had been doing research for years to find the perfect beach place for us to enjoy but also share with others. The minute we walked in and saw the view, we knew. Similar to how we feel in love with each other when we met on this Island over a decade ago :)! The Condo itself needed to be brought back to this era and it sure has taken a lot of effort and money and time on our side to do so...but we like doing things right and I think we have vision for these sort of things. But, above all, we have the passion and dedication because this is a dream come true for us and not just some property that a rich investor might buy and let someone else repair and manage. I am a hardworking Drowning Prevention Swimming Instructor that keeps very busy during the summer (high season for lessons in Austin) so we can rent it for everyone else to enjoy while we can't. My husband is extremely hardworking and driven so we are honest people who get to fulfill our goals because of this. We hope you see that passion when you stay in our place.

What makes this property unique

There are so many that I have already mentioned but to RECAP:
BREATH TAKING OCEAN VIEWS from everywhere except bathroom and the kids bedroom which has Laguna Side view through its window.
Nice Sized Balcony to enjoy, relax or even eat while watching and listening to the sea and wildlife
EVERYTHING NEW! New Floors, New Kitchen, Living Room, etc. etc. when we say that the condo was stripped naked of its previous clothes we mean Butt Naked! We just finished replacing everything! Counters, furniture, tiles, basins, everything and we continue to make improvements here and there to always maintain it to TOP standards.
BUILDING is Quaint -- not a resort type which makes it more private and owner managed - we all have a stake in keeping it nice. Please be respectful of others
CLOSE PROXIMITY to a very nice fun Beach Bar (The Wanna Wanna) as well as many Restaurants and walking distance to gas stations for convenient basic shopping
