I recently stayed at this beach condo and had a wonderful experience! The condo was spotlessly clean upon arrival, which immediately set a positive tone for our stay. It’s clear that the owners put a lot of effort into maintaining the space, as everything from the furniture to the kitchen appliances was in great condition.
The location couldn’t be more convenient—just steps away from the beach! We loved being able to walk directly to the sand and enjoy the beautiful ocean views whenever we wanted. The condo is also close to local restaurants, shops, and other attractions, which made it easy to explore the area without a long drive.
Overall, this is a perfect spot for anyone looking for a relaxing beach getaway with easy access to the shore and nearby amenities. Highly recommend!
The one negative comment is that the up stairs bedrooms were not as cool as the downstairs spaces but everything else was great.

We stayed here with our family and the location was great!! I was right off the beach and so close to the fishing pier. Everything about the location was amazing, including the services provided and quick responses to texts. Definitely recommend El Constante Condominiums #233.

This Condo location offered everything I was looking for a weekend beach trip. Located directly on the beach. Everything was as advertised. place was very clean, spacious for 1 adult and 2 teens, we all had our own sleeping space. You can walk right out on the beach, or drive 30 seconds to take your chair, cooler and gear. very nice pool with fountain, hot tub. Close to Packery channel for fishing. Plenty of local options for restaurants. Condo had all the kitchen items available for cooking. no issues with check in, or check out process. Front Desk staff were pleasant and helpful. We look forward to the next trip.

We really enjoyed the pool and beach. Next time we’ll stay in a room with a beach view from the patio. Our condo was clean, however the patio furniture was in great need of replacement.

We stayed from a Thursday night to Sunday morning. I have a young family and this worked great because of the cost and proximity of the beach. The condo was simple and inviting, easy to work with the kitchen space and making our own meals. Unfortunately there was dog hair everywhere. Clumps of light hair in corners and around the condo, our clothes were covered with it as well. Just showed oversight from tue cleaning crew of that specific unit.
Lastly, had an altercation with vacationers on our last night (Saturday). It was after 11p and they were playing music loudly, drinking, smoking, and being disruptive by the pool which was keeping me and my family awake when this is after hours for the pool. I first called the after-hours line and waited on hold with no success after 10min. No evening security, so I went down to ask them to please keep it down and the adults got into my face calling me names and inappropriate things. Others were out on their balconies and witnessed the incident as well. One individual asked where I was staying and tried following me so I took a different route so they didn’t know which room my family was in. Once I got back to my room, I called and reported the incident to the police.
Because of this incident my family and I will not be going back.we travel regularly and we loved the cost, location, and amenities, but do not need this type of altercation when trying to enjoy our vacation.
- Marshall D. from Fort Worth, Posted: 08/22/2023
Thank you for your review and feedback Marshall. Our cleaners work so hard and understand that people make mistakes, which can lead to some things being overlooked. However we are so disappointed that you had such a frightening experience with some of our other guests during your stay. Padre Escapes never wants our guests to feel unsafe during their stay. We do have security that patrols the grounds after hours to ensure the safety of our guests. We hope this experience does not keep you from staying with us again.

It was a nice place. We enjoyed staying there. Not sure if we would stay again. There was a stain (or two) on upholstery, the sofa sleeper was outrageously uncomfortable, and the cost was astronomical at >$500/ night, have mercy. It was hard to justify paying that much. Condo was remodeled well.
- Alexander B. from San Antonio, Posted: 08/01/2023
Thank you for your review! We are sorry to hear that you didn't find the sleeper sofa comfortable. Mattress comfort is a diverse subject, as each person might prefer a different level of firmness. We encourage you to give us a call and book directly in the future so that we are able to provide you with a more tailored experience. Each condo and complex is priced differently due to a large variety of interior designs, bed configurations, and locations, and rates do vary day to day. By calling directly we can provide you with the best possible rates and make sure you get a unit that is a perfect fit! We certainly welcome you back and thank you for choosing Padre Escapes!

Our extended family group has been vacationing at El Constante for most of the last 10 years (excellent beachfront location!) but this was our first time in this unit. The unit is beautifully updated, especially compared to some other units, and a good location for pool and parking lot access - not as far to lug all of our things when unpacking/packing! Washer and dryer were accessible which was extremely convenient and a few sand toys/chairs were also available. Only minor issue was a funny smell in the wash room and clogged disposal which were both easily resolved. El Constante office staff were wonderful as always.
- Rebecca W. from Cibolo, Posted: 06/23/2023
Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a sweet review! We always love hosting y'all's stays at El Constante and we are glad that when occasional issues do arise that we can quickly and easily resolve them! Thank you for being a fantastic guest, and we look forward to seeing you again soon!

We loved our stay here. Our place was spacious, clean, and a great view of the pool area. Great location on the beach which provided a great walk with soft, clean sand. A few places within walking distance and not far from Corpus Christi for shopping, eating, etc. truly loved our time and would stay here again!
- Colleen W. from Downs, Posted: 02/06/2023

From beginning to end our expectations were exceeded. Check in was easy and staff was friendly and accommodating. The condo was clean and well equipped, as well as the property. The beach was steps away. Will definitely be back.

Great time relaxing at the beach, and exploring the USS lexington . House was nice and comfortable. Pillows were horrible old and $3 walmart pillows. There was extra pillows but no extra pillowcases provided. Loved that the linens were washed and wrapped so we knew they were clean. I would recommend spending a couple hundred on new pillows to make it more hotel like provide options and extra linens for them . There was only one for the pull out and two per bed. Other than that great location , we didn’t hear neighbor noise at night. I also recommend black out curtains on the bedroom windows the pool and outdoor light shine through blinds like it’s day light all night long.

El Constante is in a great location right on the beach! You can tell the property is a bit dated, but it is overall well maintained. Unit 233 seems to have been remodeled not long ago.
The unit was well appointed and provided for what we needed. The sofa was sunken in and our bed was a bit too soft; but overall the unit was comfortable and it met our needs for a beach-going trip. As far as cleanliness goes, we did have to do some cleaning and disinfecting of our own before we started using things - these days, one must take all precautions (due to Covid19 and all)! After wiping off some surfaces we did notice dirt around, especially in kitchen and bathrooms. We also changed the AC filter because it was quite dirty already. Also, one of the showers upstairs was very slow to drain.
Other than these minor details, we had a great time staying at this unit, and enjoyed our beach escape.
Would stay again!
- Anonymous from ROUND ROCK, Posted: 07/27/2020
Thank you for the feedback we will be sure to address your cleaning concerns as well as the slow drain.
Update: Thank you for the feedback. As of summer 2021 this property is under new ownership. They have made several improvements to the property since purchasing it. We hope you will come back and stay with us again soon.

Nice condo, close to beach, but too expensive for the experience. There was a broken lamp taped to a shoe box??, there was poop on the bathroom floor..obviously the floor was not clean, so what else was not clean???, the gate to the pool was very dirty and never washed, yappy dogs next door, and the pool was not clean, lots of human hair, and it and the hot tub had a very noticable white film from sunblock. very gross! Compared to other Condos there, this was much better and remodled. Also, it states partial ocean view, that is a total lie! But there were three balconies, so that was nice.
- Nick M. from NA, Posted: 07/06/2020
We apologize for the cleanliness issues. Your description does seem extreme but that said we do all make mistakes and we would've gladly addressed these had they been reported during your stay. We will report your concerns on the pool area to the HOA. Thank you for your feedback.

We have a lovely stay but found cigarette ash under the rim of the half bath toliet, two empty water bottles under the master bed, and an empty shoebox on the 2nd bedroom balcony. Fortunately, I brought my own cleaning wipes to ensure our stay was clean but better inspection during cleaning can be done.

We were very pleased with the condo rental the view poolside was amazing to look at in the morning and in the evening time. We appreciate the cleaning of the pool it was very well kept up. So thank you to the pool guy who was very nice & friendly to the guest. However this time around the workers washing the cement around the pool area were very loud in the morning time. But overall it was an excellent stay.
- matthew b. from corpus christi, Posted: 06/12/2018
The kool decking on the pool has since been replaced so the noise is no longer a problem.

It was relaxing, enjoyable and family oriented. The rooms were super clean along with the pool & pool area, the pool was being very pleasing to the eye and enjoyable especially at night when it was cooler thank goodness it was heated. The hot tub was very nice. The people on the property were very nice and helpful. The weather was beautiful that weekend. We will definitely will go back to stay. The location was perfect we loved the boardwalk down to the beach. Overall, great get away experience.

The condo was in need of a face lift, refrigerator had rust spots on it, the seal was bad only one draw in bottom,the steps and upstairs needed vacuuming, bath upstairs had drywall mud left on cabinet and light fixtures, we washed light fixtures downstairs full of dust, plug on wall had no cover, light in kitchen had no cover also, construction was done during our stay leaving it hard to use condo because all the stuff from closet was put in kitchen could not access fridge or stove, electricity was put for most of one day. However staff tried to be helpful but there should be a check for what needs to be done in each condos before rental. Pool was very nice.
- John S. from Colon, Posted: 03/16/2018
This condo was actually sold to a new owner during your stay and they do plan to do a significant amount of updating in the coming months. There was also construction going on throughout the complex due to Hurricane Harvey. Thank you for the feedback.

The escalation in Cost to stay has risen too sharply. The interior is falling apart. Ive been shopping for a place of my own. Taxes doubled on Island properties. They thought the Schlitterbahn was going to add a boom to revenue, but they're parking lot is almost empty. Shop around!!!
- Anonymous from Roswell, Posted: 06/29/2017
??? Thank you for the analysis of our local market. I wouldn't say we agree with your assessment but your input is appreciated. We just took over managing this complex in May and we are currently working with the owners to upgrade the interiors of their units as well as the exteriors. Schlitterbahnn is a nice addition to our local market but everyone knows the beach is the #1 draw here and you can't find a better location to enjoy the beach than El Constante.

The Condo #233 was very clean. Our stay was the best we have ever had and we've been there on numerous occasions. The lady working in office was Christy and she has extraordinary people skills and great customer service. We will be back to El Constante
