Reviewer Comments:
We have stayed at El Constante more than 5 times now, we have always found little details that disappoints us, this time the only sofa in the living room was broken and management only left a sign underneath the pillows saying it was broken. Like I said little details since we stay there for the beach, not to sit on the living room. Which is why we always return here, the location is great, steps away from the beach and a few miles away from stores. As I mentioned in the title, the whole stay isn't always excellent, but it is definitely a good place to stay when visiting.

Reviewer Comments:
When my children were younger, we spent many summer vacations in El Constante #119. I have the most amazing memories here. The only reason I had not been back in some time, is that now I travel with my dog and I did not know until recently that the property has become dog friendly! Now this great place is even better! The bed is a little high for this now older traveler, but I love this place with all my heart. This is the perfect place for families or the more mature traveler. Even during Spring Break there was none of the craziness that you might find in Port A, and extra security was provided in the evenings. Thank you for all the memories and the many more to come.

Reviewer Comments:
We had an amazing stay at El Constante. The residents and workers at the complex were delightful. Loved the layout and cleanliness of the complex. The heated pool and jacuzzi are amazing. My one huge complaint would be that there is no usable couch to sit on in unit 119. I read on reviews that the pull out couch was broken which was fine but the couch itself sunk down toward the middle about 8 inches when seated. Impossible for 2 people to sit on comfortably which is unacceptable when your there for a month. The owner refused to replace when contacted by Padre Escapes. I would not rent this unit until couch is replaced!

The place was perfect for our family of three. We didn't need a big space as we spent most of our time at the beach and with friends. My only complaint is that the people staying next to us smoked outside their place and we could smell it coming and going and sometimes in our place.

The beach front room was not what I consider beach front. I had to be outside my room to see the beach. The room could use a refresh. It’s showing its age. I would recommend this property but would suggest bringing a mattress pad and some throw blankets
