We had a great time. Weather was amazing. Our only issue was my showers were Luke warm at best. The dishwasher door would not lock, so we ha d washed everything. The left front burner on stove did not heat. Pillows could stand to be replaced. Other than that it was great.

The room was okay, the dead fish smell from the kitchen was bad when we first walked in got used to it as day went on. The shower in the main room was TERRIBLE! You could hardly wash your hands from the trickle of water coming from that shower head and expect us to shower our whole body? Everyone used the other shower. Not happy. Coming to El Constante since the 90's first bad room. First & last time rending this room.
- Anonymous from San Antonio, Posted: 05/06/2024
Thank you for your review and feedback. We apologize for this inconvenience, as this is certainly not up to our normal standard. We will be certain to address the shower in the main room to ensure that it does not happen again. We hope to welcome you back in the future and encourage you to give our office a call to book so that we may provide you with the most tailored experience moving forward.

I've stayed here many times, this was the worst experience I've had. Both beds in the two bedroom unit were broken, soon as you say on them you were in the floor, looked under the bedframe and the they had the beds propped up with a single 2X4 block. The toilets would have to be plunged after every use, including "Fast uses". The experience was so bad, we left a day early just so we could get some sleep. Never again, stay away from 234

It's a slightly older place (1980s?) but it's in pretty good condition. Some condos could use updating. Right on the beach, but you need a car to get to stores. Friendly, helpful staff. We plan to visit again.

We have been committed to Padre for years. El Costante is perfect for us. The condo we stayed in could use a bit of maintenance. My only complaint.

Our unit was clean and sell stocked with a mish-mash of old dishes and cookware. The beds were comfortable and the TV/internet was fine. We had a poolside view and enjoyed some time on the balcony. We never spoke to or even saw any property managers but didn't need to. The automated system of communications was very good. We'll be back, but next time will shoot for a beach view.

The unit is older and can use some updates and repairs, but the location can not be beat. Check-in and out was a breeze and the host was easy to work with. We had a great visit to the beach.

Condo was nice. Grounds well maintained. Excellent beach. My only complaint is the outrageous cost for my 2 small dogs. Would rent this condo again. Miss the old was of more personable service. Everything now done online/text. Oh couldn't get grills to work which was a bummer for me. Was going to be first burger in 10 mo's. Great stay.
- Patricia K S. from Rockford, Posted: 11/19/2022
Thank you for your feedback! We understand how not having bar-b-que grills can be disappointing. Unfortunately, this was an unforeseen issue and shutting them off was for everyone's safety. We have repaired the issue and they are now up and running again. Pet fees do cover the extra cleaning involved and protects the unit's belongings. Please feel free to stop by the front desk and say hello next time!

We came to drop off our son at college and spent the weekend at this great location. We can walk to the beach and they're also pet friendly. This is our second time here and we will definitely be back.

It’s the perfect little beach condo to bring your pets!
Pool side is amazing (get towels from the office) The pull out bed was comfortable. The beds upstairs need to be looked at. The legs are cracked, we had to fix the bed while we were there. The mattress is fine though.
The kitchen utensils are completely random but I had everything I needed. Could use a new set of cups even plastic would work.
The AC worked great and all the ceiling fans were nice. It could use a deep cleaning and replacement shower curtain! Luckily you aren’t there to spend a lot of time in the condo!
North Padre Golf Cart rentals are the BEST!
One thing I love about this property is the gas bbq area, hoses to clean up from the beach and to clean the golf cart.
Thank you for a nice stay!
- Noel Y. from san antonio, Posted: 08/23/2022
We are thrilled to read you enjoyed your pet friendly unit! We appreciate your feedback and have informed our maintenance staff.

The condo was filthy, the tub was filthy mold & stained, it was filthy, the pillows were stained yellow, their was a filthy mop & broom left in the kitchen between the stove & refrigerator that was full of Hair. The back porch door was not able to lock. Very disappointed with that condo.
- Nancy F. from Bulverde, Posted: 07/01/2022
Thank you for the feedback, housekeeping is a tough job and we all make mistakes from time to time. Usually our inspectors catch this type of issue, unfortunately they must?ve missed it this time. We will address it with the individuals and make sure it is better going forward. We will also look into the back porch lock. Thank you!

We stayed there Fri- Sun. Nice location, but very loud, because of pool parties till 2am both nights. Not the best option when you stay with the little kids. Overall the place was clean, except balconies glass doors. They were so dirty that you barely can see through! Master bedroom bed was very squeaky, every time you turn the sound wakes you up and bad uncomfortable mattress. I’m sure there are nicer condos at this complex with the owners that actually care if their guests feel comfortable and want to come back. Not this one.
- Yana M. from San Antonio, Posted: 05/17/2022
Thank you for your feedback! We now have weekend security to ensure all guests are following rules and policies. I will inform the head of housekeeping about the glass doors and inform the owner of your mattress feedback .Thank you and we hope to host another "escape" for you!

Thank you, Edgar! We do see you made the reservation on 3/25/22. On all the recorded calls you ensured us you would arrive on 3/25/22 and would be staying for two nights. Padre Escapes charged you for the nights you said you needed. It was your decision to arrive on 3/26/22 instead and DID NOT INFORM us of this change until it was time to depart. We offered you to extend for a discounted rate and you denied. Please be sure when making a reservation you confirm your dates. Nevertheless, we hope you enjoyed your time with us as we know 3/26/22 had beautiful weather! Thank you.

It was okay but needed a good deep cleaning. We rented because it was pet friendly. We pay extra pet fee for cleaning and it smelled like dog pee when we opened door. Had to open doors and air it out.
- Anonymous from Hilltop Lakes, Posted: 11/26/2021

This is the worst place We have ever stayed at. It was dirty. The furniture is worn, frayed, stained and should have been replaced years ago. The chairs in the balcony should be thrown away. Never again.

It was nice. Our condo didn't have a broom or mop and if staying several days on the beach you know sand will come in with you. so we had to go buy one. I was scared to use the extra blankets and pillows because they looked just thrown in closets. And outside chairs were broken. Blinds were missing slats so outside pool lights would come in at night.
- Anonymous from Hilltop Lakes, Posted: 07/12/2020

iam sorry ilike a cleannkitchen.
the 2 couches were very dirty, I cleaned them as bet I could.
the dishwasher was good , the other winter Texans were very nice again the staff at padre escapes was very understanding and excellent all the time
this unit needs a good gleaning and some fixing up
this unit needs a good overhaul
the blinds kept falling down the kitchen cupboards were not clean I spent the first 2 days cleaning
the couches were dirty. even after I tried to vacuum and clean them; the washer did not work, but I used the laundry room t was great
the hot tub was full of kids and noisy we left early do to a family emergencey no refund was
offered, to bad not much else it is a well located place and the beach is always good
again the ladies at the desk tried and were so kind we appreciate them,but we will not be back.
finally we were called home early due to an emergency and asked for some refund. answer was no
.
the noise at night was constant especially the month of march
loud oarties and hot tub groups
too many children in the hot tub
very nusafe

We have stayed at El Constante for about 25 years. The staff and location are the main reasons we keep going back. Savannah McGrath is an awesome manager and she and her staff are always friendly and helpful. As a former hotel general manager in Dallas I know that the staff reflects the managements attitude so that says a great deal for Savannah. The room we ended up with because of the renovations did not have an unmatched view, just a view of the pool and the opposite condos. I understood that our room was being changed some months back so it wasn't a surprise. However, being on the pool was noisy and people on the weekends would stay well past the closing time of 10:30PM. Usually until midnight or later. Also, because of renovation the water was cut of for several hours 5 different days. Other than those 2 disappointments that were unavoidable by the staff, the stay was wonderful as always. Will be back.
- Pam P. from Euless, Posted: 10/17/2019
This is my second time staying at El Constante, first time was last year in a different room it was a 3/5 experience, but this time it really made me realize this will be my last time. The fact it was a pet friendly condo doesn't mean its okay to be dirty, since we as customers are paying extra fees because of that and because we care enough to pay so our pets can come with us it should have higher standards to avoid plagues,etc. Carpet was disgusting full of stains and sand/dirt from previous visitors. I don't know who is in charge of the cleaning ladies but whoever it is needs to pay attention before letting customers get into condo. Furniture was soooo old, dirty, full of stains, it makes me wonder where does the money goes since it seems it hasn't been replaced in the last 2 decades. Condo had an old people smell I had to buy some air fresheners. I dont remember my last stay being so bad, but this time was awful. Good thing I only spent mornings and nights. The only positive thing is still the location, the pool and grill area, other than that its not worth it.

Had a great time, location was superb, heated pool and hot tub made the colder than usual days very enjoyable. Being right on the beach was fabulous. Our unit was dated but clean and had most we needed and we enjoyed. Some repairs were needed and staff attended to them right away with a smile. Only issue was that this unit lacked some basic things that we had to buy and management said they'll see if they could reimburse us which they never did up to now. Still hoping. Being a month stay, an extra $ 70 or so didn't hurt but it should have been stocked better with basics like potholders, hairdryer, not enough glasses, dish drainer etc... were not provided. Unit should have been checked better for the basics. But overall, for the price, I'd rate it fabulous. People seem to come back year after year and we met a lot of the regulars who were all very friendly and fun. Nice cozy place. If we come this way again, we'd stay again and try to find a more modern unit but if not, we'd take this one again. Had a great month.
- Mark F. from Erie, Posted: 04/04/2019
IT WAS A GOOD STAY EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT WE HAD A ROOM FOR SLEEPING 6. THE 2 BEDROOMS UPSTAIRS WERE ACCEPTABLE. THE DOWNSTAIRS SOFA SLEEPER WAS A JOKE. THE MATTRESS HAD TO BE PUT ON THE FLOOR BECAUSE THE SOFA DIDN'T HAVE ANY SPRINGS TO HOLD THE BED UP. WE DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH LINENS FOR THE 6 AND WHEN I WENT TO ASK FOR BLANKETS AND LINENS THEY WANTED TO COME UP AND SEE FOR THEMSELVES THAT I WASN'T LYING. THAT'S WHAT PISSED ME OFF. WE DIDN'T PAY $1000 TO BE QUESTIONED ABOUT A FREAKING BLANKET, TOWEL, OR SHEET. MASTER TOILET WAS CLOGGED AND THEY NEVER SENT UP A PLUMBER.

We stayed for 2 nights during a weekday and spent $624. The cost is over priced considering the following: Master bathroom toilet leaked and had puddles of water on dining table downstairs, no additional pillow cases in closet where we slept on pillow cases without cover (gross)! Master bed "sinks in" when you sleep and squeaks, and I came home with bed bugs on my rights side of my body. If y'all are charging this much $$, then your service, product and amenities should with higher standards.
