El Constante 126

Had a great stay at the property. Had some issues with some of the lighting and overall general condition of the property. Like the lamps were missing light bulbs. The microwave light didn't work. Air to the master bedroom was limited while the air in living room was very abundant. Some of the tile has cracks as soon as you walk in the door. Lots of hollow spots under tile in living room. Other then the small stuff it definitely fit the need of somewhere to sleep and being close enough to the beach.

Always love El Constante- but will definitely go back to the upstair units. The people above us sounded like they were herding cattle morning and night.
Other than that, all excellent��

I was very happy to stay in my rental. If you like driving onto the beach, this is for you. If you come prepared, you can enjoy driving on the beach within 20-30 seconds of leaving your unit, and you don’t even have to get back on the main road but for one small turn!

Through the years this has always been a great place to stay on the beach. Clean beach and the condo was clean. However the air condition did not cool well. The mosquitos were VICIOUS DUE TO RAIN, but not around the pool. A BIG concern was the issue of a COYOTOE(s) roaming the beach at night. DANGEROUS for small/medium dogs. Had a scare and luckily a couple staying in condo facing the boardwalk yelled out to warn me as I was walking my tow dogs!

- Annette G. from Universal City, Posted: 09/27/2022

Thank you for your review and feedback, Annette. We are happy that you enjoyed your stay but are sorry to hear that you might have encountered unfriendly wildlife on the beach. While this is largely out of our control, we truly appreciate you raising the concern and we have notified the proper team member to be aware of and address this issue. We also apologize about the A/C, but aren't able to find a record of this issue being reported during your stay. We've since reported it to be addressed, as well. Please feel free to call us anytime with anything needed, as we would have gladly addressed this for you so that you didn't have to contend with it for the duration of your stay. We welcome you back anytime and thank you for choosing Padre Escapes; we hope to see you again soon! :)

Always enjoy staying at El Constantine. The unit was a bit dated. The people above us sounding like they were tearing the place apart until 2 am each night. The insulation is non existent, otherwise I really enjoy staying here. We could have used a handicap rap for my husband to get our stuff to the beach.

- Kim S. from New Braunfels, Posted: 06/25/2022

Thank you for being a loyal guest with us at El Constante! I apologize for the noise issues you experienced, and hope this may not deter you from returning in the future. I know we offer stairs to the beach access, however, right down the seawall there is a ramp that may be able to assist your husband in the future.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

Had a great time except for neighbors above were up at 3 am running what sounded likes cattle up and down. Otherwise, unit was great. Very clean and we even got to settle in before the 4 pm check in early so thats always a plus. We usually rent a beachfront unit here but had last minute plans so booked a side unit. still great spot. literally 2 minute to the sand if that far.

- Rachel R. from Spring, Posted: 06/16/2022

We are glad you chose to stay with us for your last minute getaway, and were able to check-in early! Unfortunately, the noise transfer can be an issue, but hope this is an isolated incident. We look forward to seeing you on your next vacation.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

We typically enjoy our stay (this was our 5th) regardless of the circumstances. Customer service on site & on the phone is always amazing! The biggest issue was the bed; it was like lying on a very sturdy cardboard box that was lumpy if that’s even possible. The only saving grace for this unit was that we found the sleeper sofa had a 3" memory foam mattress. As it was just the two of us, we took the queen mattress from the sofa & put it on the king size mattress in the bedroom. We didn't get to sit on the couch unless we wanted to move the mattress back each morning. (I found a mattress complaint in the reviews dated 11/08/2021.) The king size pillows had regular size pillowcases (not very sanitary). The dishwasher smelled like sewer, and I had to wash most of the pots and pans before use. The kitchen sink water never got hot (not sanitary); no problems in the tub or bathroom sink though. Upstairs neighbors were very loud (heavy steps). Will not return to this unit.

- Gay E. from Bastrop, Posted: 06/12/2022

Thank you for your review, and being a returning guest at El Constante! We apologize about the condition of the mattress, and are working with the owner on having that addressed. Additionally, we will communicate your other issues with our housekeeping staff and maintenance staff to see how we can ensure this can be corrected for future stays. We hope to continue hosting you for your future stays.

I LOVE El Constante! Staff friendly, clean and beautiful rooms. I go every summer with friends and we have an amazing time. First time staying during off season ready to go into the heated pool, but it rained. Only disappointment was (not the fault of staff just our luck) place was pretty empty but we had someone one above us with heavy steps.. other than that our stay was amazing. I’ll keep going back. Thank you Taylor for helping me with my reservations. You’re the Best!

- Sonia I. from San Antonio, Posted: 12/22/2021

Rental condo was clean and quiet, we went midweek so not a lot of people around. Unit had average furnishings, TV the usual Padre Island problem- never known in the years we have been going there can one easily get good reception or findi a channel easily. Bed needs a new mattress a pillow top would make for a better nights sleep. The air duct in the living room needs painted - rust problem. Overall unit was clean, convenient, and office staff accommodating. Other people’s pets were not a problem as far as noise as there wasn’t too many people staying there. Plan to return for another short break.

- Frances M. from San Antonio, Posted: 11/08/2021

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback with us?we really value your input on where we can further improve. We will look into that mattress and A/C vent. I also checked into the TV and did not find any connectivity issues, but please do reach out to our front office should you notice this issue again so we can resolve it during your stay.

We've never been to Mustang Island before and needed a beach getaway. The property did not disappoint. We did not have any internet or TV for our 3 day stay but we weren't in the room a lot anyway. They were working with the internet provider and gave us a discount on our room for the inconvenience. We loved staying here and we will be back. Pool was clean and very inviting.

I have stayed at El Constante for years. This year I was there twice during the June and July. I love the condos, the location to restaurants and more importantly it is right on the beach where I don't have to walk over bridges to get to the ocean. Recommend to anyone

We had an issue with the AC the first night. We went to a local hotel for the night (management company said it would be midnight before a tech could be there and we didn't want to wait for the tech, then the repair time then the "cool down time" after an already long day - property offered no compensation). It worked well for the rest of the visit. Temperature is limited to 68 minimum. We purchased (and left for future occupants) a fan to help circulate air. It could have been a little cooler but the management company addressed what could have been a huge disappointment in a timely manner.

Long weekend getaway. Small family of 3.

- Stephanie G. from San ANTONIO, Posted: 08/06/2020

We know we took a chance co.ing during a tropical storm turned hurricane. Friday was great, Saturday the rain and wind came. We had a bad dripping leak on the ceiling. Maintece came and took pictures but never came back. We used all towels we had to soak up water. We couldn't even get extra towels because the office closed early. Saturday night the power went out. I was notified that my mom had a heart attack, so we left a day early. I haven't been offered a refund for our inconvenience. Not very good customer service but under the circumstances I understand, but feel we were left behind during a hurricane.

- Anna O. from Kerrville, Posted: 07/29/2020

We apologize for the inconvenience, unfortunately we didn't have staff in the office at the time of their hurricane. We hope your mom is alright. There was no way for us to know you had to leave to help her. Thank you for the feedback.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

We had a great stay at El Constante. The room was clean and well maintained. Property staff were all very friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to answer maintenance needs we had. One front desk woman came out in a rain storm to bring us a new dvd player when ours stopped working.

- Mandy B. , Posted: 07/01/2020

Me and my family loved it here location was perfect walking distance from the beach will definitely stay here again

- Valerie D. from San Antonio , Posted: 06/03/2020

Absolutely amazing

- michael b. from PORTLAND, Posted: 03/31/2020

My wife and I enjoyed all. The location is well just a short walk to beach or just drive on beach (don’t forget beach permit). Restaurants are all close driving distance. We will be back. Awesome two thumbs up.

- David E. from oak grove, Posted: 08/11/2019

Super awesome!

- Morgan C. from Waco, Posted: 08/05/2019

We had a good time during our stay. Can't ask for a better location on the beach. The unit was clean and had everything you needed. The property was nice, nice pool area and the staff was nice & professional. We would definitely stay here again.

- Laura D. from KERRVILLE, Posted: 07/20/2019

Too far from the pool & the sleeper sofa was awful. Never getting that room again

- Matilda M. from San Antonio , Posted: 07/17/2019

Thank you for the feedback, we will check on that sleeper sofa. Most guests who are close to the pool don't like the pool noise so it is very surprising to hear that you feel it's too far. It's really just a short walk away (50-60') and the beach is just a little further than that. Very surprising review.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

The rooms were a little high priced. The sheets were dirty in the master bedroom, by the time we saw them it was to late to call the office. There was not enough towels. The a/c did not cool efficiently. The location was good.

- Jeanette R. , Posted: 07/03/2019

Thank you for the feedback. First and foremost we apologize for the dirty sheets, we do contract with a linen company (for about 6 more months) so we will reach out to them about this issue. There are towel sets on the bed, in the closet and we always have additional towels available in the office for your use. It's the hottest time of year and with people in and out of a property all ACs can have a hard time keeping up, we'll stop by and make sure it's not a bigger issue though. Thank you again for the feedback.

Very Disgusted to meet another visitor there with a room identical to mine paying $100 less PER NIGHT

- Joe I. from Austin, Posted: 05/28/2019

Price is based on location and demand at the time of booking. Also if you book on a separate site you'll pay a booking fee charged by that site as well.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

I walked through the door to offensive odors. Not clean-smelled like the floor was mopped w/a wet dog. We came in very late and were rudely awoken by multiple loud footsteps and banging above. Construction above and complained but no action not even a discount offered.Needless to say it was not the “Escape” we were looking forward to. We have booked At El C for the past several years! Worst experience! But- grandkids live the pool! Dog hairs everywhere

- Anonymous from San Antonio, Posted: 03/16/2019

Thank you for your feedback. It had been several stays since a pet had been in the property, until you arrived with your pet. The housekeeper nor the pre-arrival inspector reported any issues with pet smells. We sent our head of housekeeping by once you reported it and she could not smell anything either but we still sent the housekeeper by to mop again. The contractor working above you was within the working hours allowed by the complex and fortunately the work is now complete on the property. Again, we appreciate your feedback and hope we see you back again soon.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

The location was great, we could walk the seawall or go directly to the beach. The pool was well heated and loved the provided towels that you could swap out when damp. The property was extremely clean and the furniture in good shape. The kitchen had great dishes, pans, utensils for cooking.

Great condo, very comfortable furniture and bed. Love El Constante location, very clean complex and great pool. Construction was going on but it did not disturb our stay.

- Anonymous from Helotes, Posted: 10/28/2018

We had a good stay. We have been staying at El Constante for over 20 years. The only negatives I have was I'd wished there was an actual broom in the unit to sweep out sand. And one washing mechine didnt work, however office gave us back our money and used a different one. The TV was hard to use, too many remotes with too many buttons to get it activated. Positives include; no door key to keep up with. Security cameras everywhere, pool maintenance seemed to be better. And I liked looking at the new mint green hardy board on the back complex.

- Anonymous from San Angelo, Posted: 09/13/2018

The office staff was very helpful and friendly with all our questions. Inside the condo, there still was dirt and sand behind the chairs and it was hard to sweep ourselves since the broom was old and worn down. The bathroom door had peeling paint. There were only 2 kitchen towels and they were not that good. On the outside, we could never sit on the patio because the chairs had something sticky on them that we couldn't get off. However, it was great to have 2 TVs! No arguing over what to watch after dark. And the living room had lots of room and the furniture was comfy. The condo was so relaxing and nicely decorated and just a short walk to the beach! Plus, there was plenty storage space. The pool was also awesome. Plus, there are security cameras that made a single mom traveling with kids feel better. Overall, it was a very positive experience.

- Cristina P. from Euless, Posted: 07/21/2018

Had a great mini vacation! The location was perfect and it is right on the beach. Every thing was clean and had a fantastic beach theme. The pictures make the pool and condo seem bigger than they really are. (Which is why it has 4 stars instead of 5). We had less room than we expected but we made it work.

- Andrea H. from NA, Posted: 07/03/2018

We apologize if there was any confusion on the size of the condo or the complex, it is a 530SF property. We've never heard that complaint before, perhaps it has something to do with your screen resolution. Thank you for your feedback, hope we see you back again soon.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

The unit was clean and well stocked when we arrived. The location could not be more convenient. No beach view but short walk to the beach or drive if you'd like because the road is right there. Super friendly staff made some great restaurant recommendations. The pool is sparkling and refreshing and the other guests were friendly and respectful of each other (i.e., not rowdy).

- Julianne B. from Pflugerville, Posted: 07/01/2018

Very clean and close access to the beach
Our stay was enjoyable and memorable.

- Richard S. from San Antonio, Posted: 06/27/2018

We had a lovely time on the island. We loved our vacation rental. It was super clean, reminded us of home, had everything we needed to enjoy our stay, and was within proximity to the beach. We definitely continue to book with Padre Escapes.

Relaxing always stay at El Constante.

- John G. from San Antonio, Posted: 05/18/2018

Everything was good except we were not told about the laundering of sheets and towels. We were at the pool and saw someone go in with dirty and come out with clean. Inquired at the front desk and found out we didn’t need to launder them.

- Janet S. from New Baltimore, Posted: 04/07/2018

We have stayed at El Constante many time and have always had a great experience. The staff was great. I booked my getaway during hurricane Harvey and they worked with me to reschedule my weekend when it was safe. I love the location and will continue to stay at El Constante. However, the couch bed and bed in the bedroom was AWFUL! The couch and bed should be replaced. Both were hard as a rock and we could hardly move in the morning. They did offer to move me to another property but we were not staying much longer and didn't want to move all of our stuff. They also gave us a blow up mattress but it was very small so we couldn't use it. Overall we had a good time but we were very unhappy with the bed's. I do recommend this property but the bed's need to be replaced or a bed topper should be provided. Also both sets of sheets had major stains on them. Great staff though and great location. Very excited to see the improvements to the property and can't wait to stay in an upgraded one next year!

- Ashley H. from Austin, Posted: 09/05/2017

Thank you for the feedback. Beds are something that one person my hate and the next person my love but the owner has added a 3" mattress topper to the king bed and a 4.5" Innerspring mattress to the sleeper sofa. We will address the stained linens with the linen provider as well. We hope we see you back again soon.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

The location was perfect! The condo was clean, organized, and had everything we needed for a hassle free getaway. The staff was friendly. We couldn't have picked a better place. We will most definitely be back!

Note: if you're renting this from Padre Escapes they don't tell you but you check in at the office of El Constante - not Padre's main office up the street.
I'll start with good: It's on the beach, the unit looks out (first at a parking lot) but primarily at the dunes which is nice, they allow dogs. The king size bed is large. The fridge was cold, as was the ac. The microwave worked. There is a car rinse right as you pull into the apartments which is a good feature. The pool was clear. Now, the bad. It reeks of mildew - under the sink you can see where they've replaced the cabinet bottom with plywood but apparently, they didn't fix the actual leak. The bedding was dirty - there was hair throughout the king-sized bed. I saw some small bugs (tiny, almost transparent, squished when touched) but didn't see any evidence that they were bed bugs, so hopefully they were something else (fingers crossed). The hide-a-bed was absolutely FILTHY, so good thing the other bed was a king b/c my whole family of 4 slept in it the whole time. However, that mattress is so bad my 3yr old was complaining about her back! Both my wife and I were basically crippled for the first few hours of the day after sleeping on the king. The bedroom door won't close without slamming it (needs planed), there’s filth in all the unit's corners and tons of crud under the bed. The mismatched blue couch and chair are old but serviceable - but after looking at the condition of the hide-a-bed sitting in them gave me the crawls.
Overall, this unit would have been fine if it weren’t so gross. We weren't paying top dollar and we were at the beach to go to the beach, not to hang out in a room. That said, the bugs, filth and smell of this unit was unacceptable and made my vacation VERY stressful. The fact that Padre Escapes doesn't tell you where to check in is extremely unprofessional.

- Thad W. from Austin, Posted: 07/06/2017

We certainly appreciate your feedback. We state in our rental agreement, on our website, in our app and anywhere that discusses check in "All check-ins are at our office located at 14945 S. Padre Island Dr. except stays at El Constante which will check-in at their front office located at 14802 Windward Drive." The cleaning issues are certainly a concern that we will be addressing. We appreciate your feedback and we will use it to address these issues. We hope we see you back to expereience a stay that is up to our normal standard.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

Rental and facility itself leaves much to be desired but it is right in the beach and we were able to bring our our pup so all in all we were happy. After all we were there for the beach. It would be nice if office might have a few toiletries and little things for purchase.
