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.

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!

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!!!

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.

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.

We were pleasantly surprised with the amazing view from our balcony this year! The only negative for us, as we love to cook, is there were only 3 forks and a large serving fork for us to use.
