We love the overall location of this property with the bay in back and very close to the beach. The family enjoyed the dock on the backside for fishing and use of the outdoor grills for cooking meals. Only complaint I have was the bed was uncomfortable.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We absolutely loved our stay! You’re not far from the beach, and there is a place call “the boat house” right down the street. The doc and pool are open at all times, and everyone is very polite who live there. We will definitely be visiting again!

Great little place on a canal near the beach

This is a double row of condos with a pool in between and a dock on the canal at the end. The bedrooms are upstairs with kitchen/living room area downstairs. Shower/bath is downstairs as well. It is pretty close to the Michael J. Ellis beach--close enough for me to walk the dogs there in the mornings. It had everything we needed and the management is incredibly responsive and helpful. It is billed as pet friendly, but just be aware that any HOA rules that apply to pets are strictly enforced. You can also contact the management for other pet friendly properties.

A wonderful "winter Texan" retreat:)

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: We've rented at this condo for several winters and enjoyed the management. They replaced a blender that died promptly and had HVAC service over immediately to remedy the air conditioner that had issues. The sofa is pretty soft and the cabinetry could be updated but we had a new washer and drier this year. The unit is only a short walk to the beach which we enjoyed almost daily. The opening of the Don Patricio channel should offer more fish moving into the unit's "back yard". The sunsets are awesome from the deck!!! The permanent residents in the neighboring units are very friendly. We were invited to their Fat Tuesday party again this winter. And Peter has been become my buddy...probably because I always have a doggy treat for him. We've already booked one of the units in the condo again for next winter:)

Issues with neighbors

The condo itself was clean and as expected for the price point. However, the listing didn’t include the HOA rules about no children under 14 ever allowed in the hot tub. We found out upon arrival after the HOA president immediately scolded us before our kids even had so much as their feet in the water. We were alone in the pool area, not interrupting anyone. She came from across the courtyard to confront us. She was not pleasant, and later made comments to other permanent residents about how she disliked renters in front of us while smoking cigarettes with her dog off leash in the common area (two violations of her own rules). We did not feel welcome. Padre escapes listened to our complaint and promised to update the listing, although, we were told the HOA rules have been in place for several years. Being that we stayed in the condo over a holiday, we weren’t able to resolve the issue during our stay. I don’t blame Padre Escapes for that, but staying on those conditions ruined the trip.

Location and property was convenient and clean. Great access to the beach and my son loved fishing off the dock in the back of the property. Check in wasn’t ready on time although it was less than an hour wait, we hung out at the beach until it was ready. We did come across a couple of roaches during the stay. The 2nd night of the stay the internet was down the entire day/night which was unfortunate due to the rainy weather that night. We had planned to just stay in and watch movies but with no wifi, we did not have that option.

Enjoy the property and location just not to fond of the ones who live their full time. They make you feel uncomfortable in the pool and make you feel like you can't enjoy yourself because you have to be quiet or they complain.
