The room was very clean, the beach access was super convenient, and the pool area was a great place to relax throughout the trip. Every staff member we interacted with, from housekeeping to the pool staff, was friendly, attentive, and accommodating. One thing we really appreciated was how responsive housekeeping was. The hotel normally changes bed linens every 3 nights, but we requested service a little earlier, and they had no problem accommodating us or cleaning the room whenever we felt it was time. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would definitely stay here again on our next trip to South Padre!

Watching the sunrise from the patio was breathtaking.No need to drive anywhere. I loved the little laid back restaurant downstairs. The bartenders were friendly and they often had live music. They are also pet friendly. This is a family owned spot so don't expect the Marriott. But at the same time you get a pretty full kitchenette equipped with cups, silverware, plates and sink as well as the usual fridge and microwave. There was plenty of parking. If you can't find parking, there is another lot across the street. This spot is clean, welcoming and a perfect view. I will definitely return. The staff made me feel right at home.

The Palms Resort was good to my daughters and me from May 28-30, 2025…read more We had room #216 which was minimally decorated with geo shapes and some beachy items. Everything from the pull-out bed in the couch, to the the kitchenette, the queen bed, and the very small bathroom area was clean. Our Beachfront Queen Suite room for 1 adult and 2 children came out to $526.52. PROS The views of the Gulf, the friendly staff, the short walks to the beach, a cafe with a full bar downstairs that offers all three meals, and the existence of an outdoor pool were my favorite things. The overall property was clean and trash-free. No rowdy neighbors. It was peaceful both nights even with the restaurant directly below us. I was able to back my Jeep into the same parking spot each time even when the cafe was packed. CONS Our door did not possess the tight-fitting seal I wish it had. Ants on the balcony, crawling up the main entry door. Water bugs in the bathroom on the second night. Pool filters were not working. Worn-out boardwalk and decks. The place could use some maintenance and fixing up and bug control, but overall I was happy and felt safe. My girls were happy.

The hotel offers perfect views and direct beach access. Barry's food was both delicious and convenient, and the beach bar had a fantastic DJ--highly recommend it for a relaxing evening by the water. Our room was extremely comfortable, and I was impressed with the size of the balcony. There was plenty of parking, and the hotel is conveniently located right across the street from the Sea Turtle Conservation Center. The front desk staff were kind, friendly, and very helpful when we reported an issue with our shower handle. We would absolutely stay here again in the future!

I was literally told that it depends on the bartender what they decide to charge! And be careful not to get price gauged on your whiskey/water. I got charged a $2.50 upgrade for water "mix." It was refunded after I spoke to the manager but with no apologies. And actually, she only refunded me the $2. I had to request the .50. By this time it's was just the point of the matter. But DO take advantage of the food and drink "all inclusive" offer. It's a great deal!

I enjoyed my stay at La Copa. It is small but has everything needed for a beach hotel. It could use…read morea bit of an upgrade. The room and common spaces would benefit from some paint. The fixtures (tub, shower, balcony)in the room are outdated. I stayed in the King Oceanfront with Jetted Tub. It was probably one of the biggest rooms I've ever stayed in. The balcony is a little too small though, and there are only 2 chairs. Definitely could use a table and extra space for lounging and taking photos. The location is nice, an accessible path to the beach and about a 5 min drive to restaurants and shops. The parking lot does get full quickly but I appreciated that parking was included. The on-site restaurant was nice for drinks and dinner while lounging at the pool. I enjoyed the shrimp tacos and fish sandwich and everything is reasonably priced. I also enjoyed the included breakfast.

My family and I stayed here for two weeks, and I'm just going to say--the hallways felt pretty…read moreclaustrophobic and really tight. There was only one operating elevator for most of our stay, and our room key card stopped working around eight times. Each time, we had to go down to the front desk to get it fixed. The rooms weren't terrible, but there was mold growing on the AC unit. I didn't make a big deal about it since it was just a small patch. However, there were three holes in the shower, along with mold growing at the top of the shower on the ceiling. On approximately the third night, I lifted a washcloth and a big eyelash fell out of it--which definitely didn't belong to anyone in my family. Then, on the last night around 1 a.m., there was loud screaming, yelling, and banging. It sounded like parents talking very loudly and kids running up and down the halls, just screaming. It went on for a good 30 minutes and woke up my entire family. My dad called the front desk, but I don't think anyone actually came up, because the noise continued for another 15 minutes after the call. Overall, the stay wasn't that bad--you honestly get what you pay for. It was nice that we could just walk to the beach, but we probably won't be coming back.

The housekeeping staff did an exceptional job keeping our room clean and stocked with fresh towels. The front desk staff is efficient, helpful, and friendly. I'd injured my leg and wasn't able to walk. We flew down and back. After the fact, I realized my wheelchair could have been stored in cargo. My husband asked whether they had a wheelchair available. The clerk went out of her way to find one that I was able to use for the duration of our stay. The salt water pool is wonderful, and has many places to relax and soak up the sun. We stayed in October, so the pool wasn't very crowded. There were quite a few toddlers, and pre-schoolers...all closely watched by parents. My husband and I love watching and listening to children at play, so their presence never bothered us. There is a great beach bar just beyond the pool. There is also one next door called Clayton's. Both are perfect places to grab a meal, snack, or you can choose from an extensive variety of drinks. Sea Turtles, Inc. is located right across the street. It's a nonprofit sea turtle rescue and rehabilitation center where volunteers rescue, rehabilitate, and release those that have recovered. It was instrumental in bringing back the Kemps Ridley sea turtle from the brink of extinction. It's the largest of other such facilities in the world. So give yourself time to explore the tanks, and visit the museum to educate yourself about its history. We enjoyed our stay immensely, and wouldn't hesitate to book there in the future. Room prices are quite reasonable.

We stayed at the Courtyard Marriott and overall had a very pleasant experience. The room was really…read morenice, clean, comfortable, and well maintained, and the decor throughout the hotel was modern and inviting. A big highlight of our stay was Stephanie at the front desk. She was extremely helpful and accommodating. She made sure we received an ocean view room, helped us get an extra parking pass, and clearly explained where everything was located, including the restaurant. Her customer service truly stood out and made us feel welcomed. Unfortunately, the on-site restaurant was disappointing. The staff had difficulty communicating in English, did not check on us during our meal, and overall service felt inattentive. The bartenders' mixed drinks were not good, and breakfast options were very limited. There were no real protein options besides eggs with bacon, which was surprising. Because of the excellent room and Stephanie's outstanding service, our stay was still enjoyable, but the restaurant experience could use significant improvement.

We reported it and were moved to a second room, only to find more brown stains on the sheets there as well. When we asked about a refund because we no longer felt comfortable staying, the manager, Imelda, was rude and unprofessional. She told us the rooms were supposedly at a "discount rate" and non-refundable, even though this was never discussed when we booked the room in person. Instead of trying to help resolve the situation, she kept insisting the hotel was fully booked and that they would lose money. The issue wasn't just the stained sheets, but also the way the situation was handled. Cleanliness and customer service should be taken seriously, especially when guests immediately report problems upon entering the room.
