About this property

INCREDIBLE 9TH FLOOR PENTHOUSE VIEWS 30 STEPS TO BEACH


Incredible 9th floor views of the Gulf and the surrounding village!

Great views of paradise overlooking the gulf from this Aquarius beachfront, 9th floor unit. Watch sunrise on the gulf and soon Space-X launches from living room balcony. Located directly on the Gulf of Mexico. Sandy and I stay often in our units and update them constantly. No need for a rental car, you can walk to entertainment and great bay side restaurants such as Louie’s Backyard, Palm Street Pier Bar & Grill, Laguna Bob's and Daddy's. Shopping, water park and theater also close by. Just out the back door is miles and miles of white, sandy beach to walk, or you can relax around the large pool and hot tub, or if you must work, there is W.I.F.I. in our room. Jet skis, parasail banana boats, dolphin watch, museums and lighthouse are just some of the nearby attractions. The Aquarius is a gated beachfront complex with a friendly 24 hour management /security staff. The Aquarius also has a laundry room, a small fitness and sauna room and 3 BBQ areas.

View was worth it

This was a very last minute trip. I’m honestly not a fan of condo/hotels because I’m super sensitive to noise. We typically rent houses. I was surprised how quiet this place was especially since it was Spring Break. We all slept great. The condo fit our family of 4 perfectly. You can’t beat the view. Proximity to the beach was great, especially with kids. The heated pool was a sanity saver when the weather was not cooperating (hello 30 mph winds). Overall we had a really great stay. The building is in need of a little TLC but for the price it was a great spot to stay.

Beautiful view. This is my first time traveling to South Padre Island and I came from out of state. This unit is great if you’re driving in as it doesn’t have any extra amenities like shampoo/conditioner and beach toys/cooler/wagon and getting to the grocery store is difficult without a car. Next time I’ll be more intentional on what I pick for a longer stay since I’ll be flying in. Otherwise, it’s a beautiful unit in a great location. If you bring everything you need (food, toys, toiletries) then you’ll be good to go.

Great Location, Some updates (TV’s in the bedroom, beach towels, more than 1 roll of toilet paper and paper for guests, etc…) could make for a better experience.
