It worked like a charm to sit and breath some salt air and get some good vitamin D as well. We saw great sunrises and sunsets and the condo worked great for this!

Island Vibes - lovely condo
We just spent a wonderful week at Island Vibes - the condo was clean, well-laid out and very comfortable with a lovely view over the private pond (great fun watching the fish jumping in and out of the water) and the Gulf in the distance from the 3rd floor balcony. Booking and check-in were a breeze! Just remember that there is no elevator, so you will get your steps in going up and down the stairs. I would thoroughly recommend staying at this cute apartment.

Thankful to walk to the beach although it’s on the side where vehicles are allowed to go. Property was just what we needed as 2 adults - get Brooklyn Pie co. Delivered and go to the Surfside Sandwich Shoppe! Checkin and out was super easy.

5 Days in North Padre Island
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: Had a perfect stay at "Island Vibes" in NPI. The condo was immaculate and stocked with everything we needed. Hanging out on the balcony in the morning and evening and listening to the surf was great!! Even though it's a 3 story building with many units, we never heard anyone else the whole time we were there. We loved the pool and fully equipped gym. The proximity to some excellent places to eat was a bonus and the beach was within walking distance. We will definitely come back and rent this condo again!!!

Overall Pretty Good
Condo was nice and clean. However, it does have a musky 'old' smell inside but overall good. The stairs are a bit of a hassle. Otherwise, a good place to stay. The condo did not have any coffee or coffee filters which I thought was unusual, even hotel rooms provide those.

Perfect location for our escape!
This property was exactly as advertised! All was new, clean and neat on the inside. The location was perfect for our needs and although we were there during Spring Break, it was peaceful and quiet. We’ll stay here again. Two things I want to mention however, you need to take the stairs to the 3rd floor, could be a hassle for some folks and the stairs and the hallways have carpets, these were very old, very dirty and smelled very muggy. Maybe the Beach Resort could rather do tiles.......

Review for Beach Condo Rental
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: Our stay at the beach condo was overall quite enjoyable. The location was perfect, offering breathtaking views of the ocean, and the amenities were as described. The interior was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. However, we did encounter an issue with a significant number of ants during our stay. While it didn't ruin our experience, it's something that could be improved upon. We'd recommend this condo to others, with the hope that the ant issue is addressed for future guests.

Very comfortable, clean room and stress free booking!
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: The condo was perfect and SUPER clean! Has a full kitchen with stove, fridge, dishwasher, all the basic kitchen items, and a full sized washer and dryer. Has a small pond in addition to the beautiful pool and though it’s not ON the beach, you CAN see the ocean from the balcony. Stress free booking and very friendly, helpful, management company! There isn’t an elevator, but even considering that...I would go back again and would 110% recommend it!

Cozy but smelly
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a cute unit. Great view of the dunes Te you can see the water since it’s on the 3rd floor. But speaking of the 3rd floor, make sure you understand there is no elevator. The unit is in need of some maintenance but it’s hard to keep up a property right on the coast like this. The biggest issue is that there is a strong mold odor. I thought it might go away but it lingered through out our 4 day stay.

Fantastic Condo
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: This is a very nice condo. We stayed for a week to move our daughter back for summer college. It was the perfect size for 3 adults and a pet. The location was great, close to the beach and restaurants were not that far away. The bed was comfortable however the fitted sheet kept managing to come off at each corner at the top of the bed during our sleep. I had to fix it every morning but this did not damper our stay or inconvenience us at all. I believe the elastic in the sheets were worn out or the sheet was too big. The kitchen was perfect and had everything I needed to prepare a meal. I was a little surprised there was no dishwashing soap just cubes for the dishwasher. I am old fashioned and hand wash my dishes. Since we were moving our daughter back to TAMU we used her dish soap so no biggie. We really enjoyed our stay and loved sitting on the balcony both day and night listening to the waves crash on the beach, guest fishing in the pond and birds flying by.

Like a Two Star Hotel
I feel like I was in a two star hotel. The location was great, the community and view were nice and the floorplan worked. However, the unit was disappointing. First, it reaked of mold. The laminate floor was so loud and popped like bubble wrap with every step. Very little was provided in the way of supplies. You have a kitchen but bring everything for it, bring extra pillows and every toiletry. I like VRBO for a place that feels homey but, again, this felt like a two star hotel but with a kitchen. I'd stay at the complex again but not this unit.

Know what you are getting / Set expectation
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Traveled with the family which included 2 kids under 2 years old, its never easy. Not only is it added luggage/equipment its added work. In our case we were not told or we did not realize the appt was on the 3 floor of a building with no elevator. This fell short of an expectation we would have liked to have known. The property images do show it closer to the beach than all actuality. Other than this the stay was okay. The AC worked great which was nice and Padre Escapes was pretty responsive. While I would rent from PE again I would not rent this condo, not at this price anyhow.
