"Best in Class" Beachside Condo, Steps from Beach

Breathtaking views of sun, surf and sand! This non-smoking 1 bedroom, 1 bath condo was beautifully renovated in 2014. All modern appliances/features and updated, luxurious furnishings make your stay comfortable and help you feel pampered. Wake to an amazing sunrise over the gulf every morning from your private balcony. The soothing sound of ocean waves lull you to sleep at night and beckon you to the beach during the day. The Tiki Condominium complex has 2 large pools that are heated during the winter and are surrounded by lush landscaping.

Over 750 square feet, this home, can accommodate a family of 5 (2 adults, 3 small children or 4 adults very comfortably). Sleep comfortably in a King size bed in the bedroom and a Queen size sofa bed in the living room. The kitchen and bath have beautiful granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. The kitchen is fully stocked with necessities and is equipped with blender, coffee maker and microwave. Wi-Fi, 2 flat screen TVs, DVD player, cable with HBO and ESPN channels, linens/bath towels, and a washer/dryer are all available in the Condo for your convenience.

Water sports, beach chairs and umbrella rentals are available at the beach.

Water activities include Schlitterbahn beach water park, dolphin watching, boogie boarding, snorkeling and scuba diving, surfing and sailboat rentals. For the fisherman in the family, bay fishing, deep sea fishing, fishing at the jetties/pier/surf and fly fishing are all available. Birding and nature center, and sea turtle, Inc are right across the street from the Tiki, while beach horseback riding are also popular island activities.

Great location
This unit faces the hotel next door which is quite noisy when they have entertainment, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that you don’t hear a thing when the patio door is closed so it was never an issue. Loved seeing the weekend fireworks show from the balcony. This unit is very nicely furnished and the kitchen has ample dish ware. We enjoyed our stay very much.

5 day vaca on South Padre
Lovely and very clean condo. SPI Excursions was great for snorkeling. And must visit the Bird Sanctuary and see "Big Padre"the huge alligator event! Also enjoy a great dinner at Nautica. A small warning, on a holiday weekend expect very LOUD music from the party bar/pool that plays until midnight.

Perfect for couples
This condo was perfect for me & my husband. We only planned to stay 4 days but ended up staying 1 extra day so wecould actually enjoy the beach. Went the 3rd week of March & it was very chilly. The condo was very nicely decorated and had everything we needed. Check in was easy & beach was jut a few steps away. We will definitely rent this unit again!
