All new stainless steel (slate) GE appliances
Enlarged bathroom to increase space
Removed bathtub/shower combo and replaced with tiled walk in shower

The condo was very clean and comfortable with everything we needed to enjoy the beach. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to prepare meals. Because this is a corner unit the balcony had beach views from the front of the balcony as well as the side. We spent a lot of our time there enjoying the view. We would highly recommend this condo to friends and family. It will not disappoint!

Perfect in every way!

The location right on the beach was amazing! The balcony was spectacular- great furniture and what a view! Now for the condo - it was recently remodeled and is super beachy chic! We loved everything about it! By far the best we've seen. We will definitely be back!

All the reviews are true! This condo is absolutely beautiful- from all the decor and furniture to the breathtaking view of the beach. I’m so happy that I discovered it while searching the internet for places to stay while in SPI. Thank you Brian and Peggy Sue for making this condo the perfect vacation getaway spot. I highly recommend booking this condo for your next trip to SPI and hope we can return one day soon!

Amazing View!

The views from this condo are truly amazing! There are not many places where you can get a 360 degree view in all directions on the island. We were able to see the sunrises and sunsets each morning, and the fireworks right from our private balcony as well. The decor & style showed a true pride in ownership, and all the conveniences of home were though of and provided. We really enjoyed our stay, and highly recommend to future guests - you will not be disappointed booking!

Nicest unit

We have stayed in the Inverness 8 times. This unit was the nicest and bidets 1 bedroom unit we have ever stayed in. So many nice little added amenities…paper napkins, binoculars, beach chairs and umbrellas, games, plenty of toilet paper and towels (good quality), very nice beach towels, good range of kitchen utensils, all quality items. Overall wall decor was quite tasteful, but there were too many nic nac items covering the tables an taking up room on the floor using space for me to set my stuff.

May Anniversary Trip

The individual condo was excellent. Very well designed and comfortable. The patio was great to overlook the beach. Kitchen was perfect size and had all the tools you need. Only downfall was both elevators were out (but not the owner of this condo's fault). Not an issue until we checked out with all our stuff. And could use more than one mirror in entire place to help with getting ready with multiple people. But overall a place I would come back to.

Brian the host is a great communicator. Lady at the check in was difficult to understand. English was no Bueno and she acts like you have already stayed there and you know the drill. No and No. Luckily, she was the only negative. Nicely furnished, newly remodeled. Beach vibe in full effect. Great view from the living room and the large balcony.

Vacation at SPI

The condo was exceptionally clean. Brian messaged me and asked if everything was ok and if he could do anything. Replied that everything was perfect as it was. Anything you would need for cooking are provided. I didn’t cook as I cook at home and went out for meals. The view off the deck is spectacular. Sat on deck and had morning coffee and watched the sunrise. Beach was a little crowded but that’s expected this time of year. Anything you would need is close as far as entertainment or eating establishments. If you’re going to SPI I would recommend this place to stay as number one on your list.

SPECTACULAR CONDO - GREAT OWNERS!

SPECTACULAR CONDO - GREAT OWNERS! Beautifully updated condo. Very easy access to the beach. Brian and Peggy Sue, it is obvious that you guys spared NO expense on your renovations. The minute you walk into the condo you get the feeling you’re on 'island time'. From the colorful décor to the "wood" tiled floor! EVERYTHING was just beautifully appointed. You guys also paid attention to all the details from the furniture to stocking the condo with all anyone needs. Your condo was also very quiet which is what we were looking for. Thank you, Brian and Peggy Sue for the personal touch upon arrival! Thank you for paying attention to the reason we were there and always answering any questions we had in a timely manner. We also loved watching the sunrise from your HUGE balcony. This is the first time either one of us was sad to leave SPI and it was you and your condo that had us feeling that way! Brian and Peggy Sue, you guys are a class act! We would LOVE to stay in your condo again. Thank you for all you did to help make our anniversary, special. We can’t wait to get back to SPI and your condo. God bless you both!

Nothing short of amazing!

Everything about this condo is AMAZING! Let's start with the host; Brian was more than helpful upon our arrival and made it a point to let us know if we had any questions during our stay. Turns out we had a few and he was always quick to respond. The condo had recently been renovated and it is the cutest place I've ever stayed. Perfect mix of modern comfort with breathtaking views. The condo is a corner unit which affords a extra large patio with magnificent views. The bed was incredibly comfortable and the the shower was very well designed and beautiful. The Inverness (where the condo is located) is on the northern part of the island so it is a little less crowded/rowdy which was very welcomed. It is a good idea to have a car or golf cart during your stay as it is a bit of hike to eateries. I think Wanna Wanna was the closest and it was a few blocks down. The beach access is SO convenient. Literally the beach is right at your front door. I think the description says you could sleep six (2 in bedroom and 2 pull out couches) but I think that would be a little tough with just the one bathroom however it was perfect size for the 3 of us. It would be IDEAL for a romantic getaway. Thank you so much Brian and Peggy Sue for a spectacular vacation spot. The only negative is that we had to leave :)

This condo was fabulous! The views were just as stated. We enjoyed the quieter beach and the proximity to Clayton’s and Wanna Wanna when we wanted more noise. Getting around the island was easy from this condo.My favorite place was the balcony! Beautiful views and people watching from the sixth floor kept me quite entertained if we weren’t at the beach.Brian was easy to work with and answered all of my questions.

Easily the best SPI condo we have stayed at. We stayed at 2 others in Inverness that weren’t even close as well as others on the island. The unit was beautifully decorated and the kitchen well stocked. The host couple clearly treasure this unit and it comes through in every detail.

Great place with opportunities for improvement

The good: This was by far the cleanest, most well appointed condo we've ever stayed in. The views are spectacular. The beach is amazing. The patio furniture is fabulous (we just ordered the same chairs for our home). The inside couches & chairs are comfortable. The owners left a kitchen cabinet & drawer empty for our own food. Opportunities for improvement: There are SO many decorations, some which I'm sure are expensive & very cool. But it's too much. We don't like to move anything when we stay in VRBOs but there was no room on the tables for our own things & all of it is overwhelming. Decluttering would be a huge improvement. There is only one small mirror which is in the bathroom. It's too small for 2 people to get ready at the same time. We bought an additional mirror and hung it with a command strip off the slider. Adding another mirror would be helpful. The mattress is comfortable, but the bed is very wobbly & noisy when you move. I slept on the couch more than once just to get good rest. The facility: Good > Right in front of the condo, you can rent 2 chaise lounge chairs & an umbrella on the beach for $35 a day which we did more than once. Not good > The elevators didn't work regularly and are very slow. The pool is not heated and the water temperature was frigid. There are 2 small jacuzzis, but half the time they weren't heated. I do water exercise for health reasons so it was very disappointing & difficult not to have an option to swim.

Beautiful Beachfront Condo

My husband and I spent 3 nights at this beautifully renovated unit. The pictures do not do it justice! The unit was well stocked with anything you could need, from a large array of spices to thick plush bath towels and high quality bed linens. There were beach towels, chairs and umbrellas available to take to the beach. The view from the lanai was breathtaking. Brian was great to work with, answering our questions prior to the trip promptly, and checking in on us upon arrival and during our stay. We would highly recommend this unit and we plan to come back!

Hidden gem

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. We have frequented a good number and the attention to the soothing decor was unmatched. The “beach/“under the sea” theme added so much to the comfort and the experience of being beachfront. Even the balcony decor was amazing, as we spent hours relaxing, talking and listening to the waves. The property was also spotless. It would have been nice to have had a booklet of info with recommendations for local restaurants and things to do in the area. To be clear, not supplying this information did not detract from enjoying our stay. We highly recommend this property and would absolutely stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Brian

Host profile image
My wife and I got our education in Texas, got married in Texas, and gave birth to our daughter in Texas. Then I started working as an engineer in the automotive industry and we moved to Michigan where we lived for about 25 years. I retired from that job and we moved back to Texas to get away from the snow, and to be able to ride our motorcycles year round. We love South Padre Island and wanted a place for family to come visit. This is our home away from home.

Why they chose this property

We chose this condo for several reasons.

First, the section of beach in front of the building is less busy than other areas of the beach. Public beach access in this area is limited, therefore the beach does not get very crowded.

Second, this area of the Island is quiet and peaceful, but you can easily walk North or South for some excitement. Clayton's Beach Bar is only 0.7 miles to the North, and Wanna Wanna is less than half a mile to the South.

We especially enjoy the sunrise while drinking our morning coffee on the balcony. Since we are located on the North corner of the building the views up the island are fantastic, and you can even see the fireworks show every weekend in the summer.

The building recently completed a $2.5 million exterior renovation that includes new railings, new paint, tiled walkways, elevator improvements, and access gates to the inside parking areas.

What makes this property unique

Our corner balcony faces the water and gives views of the beach, and the island to the North. This is a great place to sit with a fresh cup of coffee and watch the sun rise over the Gulf. From the front door you can see the island and watch sunsets over the bay. During the summer, weekend fireworks shows can be seen from both the gulf side, and the bay side of the condo.
