Memories New and Old

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. 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.

My winter beach month in Padre

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. 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!

Average service

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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 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.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location on the beach. The condo was adequately stocked with what was needed. The couch was pretty worn and stained and the wicker type chair was not comfortable, but everything else was great. Working with Padre Escapes as the rental company is always 5 star. We use them for rentals all over the island.

Excellent location

There are so few properties around Corpus where you can walk to the beach! We even had a small view of it from the porch. The location was great, pool was lovely, and condo itself was perfect for our family. I highly recommend this spot. The only downside was loud upstairs neighbors, but that can’t be helped. Everything else was perfect.

Disappointing

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The rental was in a fairly good location. My issue was the beach. It was covered with sarrgasum seaweed. We were told it could not be removed but an article I read said once it hit the beach it could be removed. This is very gross and made our stay miserable! There are welps on my arms and legs and it's probably from that mess. We saw all kinds of nasty things in the seaweed. There could have been used needles, broken glass, or other hazardous things in the seaweed. It was so deep! But it's not your fault, I understand that. The room was fairly clean but really needs a deep cleaning. The couch needs to be replaced because it was the only seating and it was uncomfortable. Pool and hot tub were nice. Property was maintained faily well on the outside. Padre Escapes were very responsive to any questions I had pre-arrival. My advise to people wanting to go to the beach this year is to check with authorities or watch a beach cam to see condition of beach. My neighbor in condo next to me said she called the owner and was told no sargassum was on the beach!!! Sorry for the bad review but we were so disappointed that we left a day early. We even read the reviews before we chose this location and they were all very good. So beware future occupants!!

Lovely

My husband and I had a funeral to attend Monday and took a much needed respite with our little dog. I own a small janitorial service and was shocked there was absolutely nothing needed cleaning. Your cleaning staff does excellent work. And we enjoyed meeting our snowbird neighbors. We hope to return.

Perfect Getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Lovely beachside condo for 1-2 people. Condo was ready early. Upon arrival the ceiling fans were on, the temperature was set very comfortably and the tv’s were playing a soft jazz. It was an amazing presentation of the unit. So inviting and relaxing. Condo was clean, maintained and well stocked with everything I needed. I had treated myself to a solo getaway to read and relax on the beach and by the pool. My only minor frustrations were with the management of the property. Parking permits are issued and to be displayed in the vehicles, this does not happen. Others park there and when I called the office to say I had trouble finding a parking spot on my side, nothing was done. Pool bracelets are issued and not enforced. Not one person wore them, again, why bother? Anyone could be using that pool. Lastly, and this was the most annoying, people save chairs at the pool by throwing towels on them, sometimes all day and the management does nothing. This is a pool for everyone to use, first come first serve. Saving chairs to the detriment of others because someone wants a chair should they decide to go to the pool later is ridiculous. Management needs to handle this and the management office is literally 1 step away from the pool area!! Had to get that off of my chest. All that being said, the unit is great. Great location on the “end” of the beach, doesn’t get super crowded like other sections. Easy access to shopping and restaurants, Doc’s is my favorite casual dining spot on the water. Trying to go 1x per month this summer and will be returning. Rates for this unit are very reasonable comparatively. 👍👍

Perfect beach stay!

With in walking distance of the beach. Comfortable bed. A little confusing on check in when listing says you’ll receive check in information day before and we received it when the room was ready, but it was super simple to check in. Bring extra towels. There was 1 towel per person and with the humidity if you took a shower in the morning it was still wet at night. Make sure to take the trip to the jetty to see the sea turtles!
