Great location, beautiful views

This property is spacious, well-equipped, and perfect for a large family. Not only is it on the beach with some of the best views SPI has to offer, it’s also a great location within walking distance of restaurants, etc.

Beautifully equipped for family.

This condo was spacious and well equipped for our family. The views were phenomenal with 3 different balconies to catch sunrises and sunsets. We appreciated the many offerings such as beach chairs, umbrella, volleyball, etc. We met several other owners and all were friendly and ready with great tips for enjoying the island.

Family spring break trip.

Very nice condo. The pool was not kept warm was a disappointment though. Also be on the 10th floor was a little scary if there would of been a fire because they had the doors to stairs locked when we tried them so no exit except the elevator.

Beach Front Penthouse

We really enjoyed our stay at this location. The views of the beach were amazing. The place was nicely decorated and very up to date. All bedrooms were roomy and nice beds. There was plenty of towels including beach towels. The kitchen was well supplied with cooking items. The communication with the property manager was top notch and responded quickly to my requests. I would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic location and great views

Perfectly close to restaurants and shopping while still being quiet at night. Even the grocery store is within willing distance! The loft is a tight squeeze but the teens made it home and they had their own bathroom upstairs.

Family Christmas Vacation

This was our first time to South Padre Island and the condo was absolutely perfect for our family. We had 11 of us ranging in ages 3yrs old and up, the upstairs loft was perfect for the 4 teenagers we had. The spaces bedrooms on the main level were perfect for the rest of us. To be able to open up the balcony door and sit outside and listen to the waves crashing and watching the sun come up was picture perfect. Everyone at the property was very friendly and even before we arrived everyone at Frankie was easy to work with and very communicative. It felt like this was our 100th time there not our first. We will definitely be back and be (hopefully) staying in the same unit again.

Family get-away

Great for extended families or large groups. We had 12 people in our group that ranged from 81-12 years of age. Place is on the beach with a private entrance to the beach, around the corner from the strip, restaurants, grocery store, convenience stores, etc. Also has a nice pool, grills for cooking out, exercise equipment, private parking lot. The place had all we needed, towels, appliances, dishes, beach umbrellas, boogie board, etc. Definitely a great place to stay.

Nice place but overpriced

It was a nice place to stay. Only complaint is with the added tax, cleaning fees, host fees at the end of booking It was overpriced. The upstairs loft is for shorter people. Pictures made it look bigger than it was.

Wonderful location and superior customer service!

We stayed for 4 nights in the off season and had a wonderful time. The location was perfect. The condo views were amazing plus we had more than enough room to just stretch out and relax. The owners are 100% dedicated to customer service and were in constant contact with us to make sure we had a great vacation experience. We will definitely stay here again!

Amazing !

This property was stunning! So much space , and everything was newly renovated. We loved the three balconies, and the views were spectacular. We were able to cook for our large family (12 of us) with enough cookware , plates , utensils , etc…. Including a beautiful park area with 3 grills. Every bedroom had a TV with access to streaming channels. Rent this condo ! We loved it

Wonderful Family Thanksgiving

Perfect place for our family gathering. Six adults and two children had plenty of room and the views from the three balconies were amazing. The island weather was sunny and warm during the day and jacket weather at night. Even if it would have rained the whole time, the penthouse would have been the place to stay out of the weather and still enjoy our long weekend. We will definitely consider renting for our next visit.
