"Nice Condo, Close to the Beach
The condo had everything we needed. Beds were comfy, A/C works great. Kids enjoyed the pool & watching the jumping fish from the dock. 2 Pets are allowed, but everything is pretty close quarters so you might need to walk them out by the road. Michael J. Ellis Beach is just past the Wyndam Hotel down the street."

"Padre stay
Had a blast and the place was perfect for a small family and fur babies. We were accommodated with everything we needed. Even a pool and spa. Thank you and we will stay again."

"Wonderful
Check-in/check-out was easy breezy, property was clean and just as described, dog area was tiny, mattresses were very firm, a convenient short drive to beaches and restaurants, view of sunsets off the docks was beautiful, catch and release fishing was plentiful enough for the kids with proper bait (we used dead shrimp with much success but *again*we weren’t fishing for whoppers or anything, just fun for the kids), other comments about the “local” residents had us cautious but we kept to ourselves and were respectful and cleaned up after our dogs without letting them bark and we had no trouble with the residents. Overall, this was an excellent experience and would recommend! "

"Our early winter break
It was a perfect place quiet nice people just a short walk to the sea wall and beach was there in Dec to mid January and the temperatures were just right not super hot and not cold around seventy degrees most of the time would recommend this place to anyone "

"Leeward
Was NOT dog friendly as far as a place for them to go potty. Long walk to dog area and it was full of stickers! Otherwise very nice place!"

"So So Rental, not worth the price
This property was not great for the price. The beds were hard and pillows flat. It also was not as clean as you would think, with the cleaning fees that are charged. the picture of the water is kind of deceiving, there are only two pier/decks for the complex."

"Totally worth it!
A beautiful house, super spacious, super convenient because it’s so close to the beach. I would definitely stay here again. I am definitely referring my friends and family to this house/residence! "

"Beach Getaway
We really enjoyed the location, really close to the beach and fishing on the pier. The kids caught a bunch of little fish we just released back into the water."

"Not a welcomed spot
This was our 3rd year staying at this complex and we all ways love it. This year was a little different. The people that live in the other units at this location seemed to be bothered. They made it very clear they didn't want the vacation stays there. There is 4 units that had permanents residents, and they made it very clear that we were not welcomed. Other than that we love the locations and amenities of this stay but unfortunately we will not return. "

"Great condo, horrible residents
The condo is great- Padre Escapes management is great. Unfortunately we won’t be staying here again due to the rude full time residents. We were confronted by 2 different residents complaining about our dog barking even tho our neighbors were home all day and never heard her. Another time was at 7am when we were all asleep (including the dog). These people sit outside and smoke constantly making the pool area unenjoyable. I was constantly on edge about what they would say to us next. It is clear they do not want vacationers in their “territory”."

"Pet Friendly and Great Location
We enjoyed staying at the Leeward Cove property. The location was great. We loved the ability to fish off the back decks. The condo was clean and nice. The pool was nice and not as crowded as other properties. It was convenient to the beach and other attractions. We love bringing our dogs, so pet friendly is alwasy a plus. We did have a problem with check in this time. We have stayed with Padre Escapes many times and never had issues. We were waiting outside the property a few minutes before 4 which was guaranteed check in time. We reached out and the management said we would be in by 4 but it still needed to be inspected. We waited and saw a staff member show up and leave. We waited several more minutes to get our check in instructions and finally had access to the unit around 4:45 pm. I feel like they forgot about our reservation and had to hurry to get the property ready."

"Nice gettaway
This was our second time renting this condo. Great location close to the beach and the shops. The pool right outside your door and the lighted fishing dock for night fishing was great perfect for our family of four. Would definitely recommend. "

"VERY nice inside.
the Condo itself was FANTASTIC. My two big things I look for right away upon entering are AC ad WIFI. Do those two things work? They did and they were fine the inside was really nice, had everything we needed plates, forks, knives, etc... The neighbors were polite and the back section of the property has it's own dock."

"Leeward Cove condo was so convenient to our stay on Padre Island
Our condo was clean, well-maintained, and Padre Escape does a wonderful job of providing customer service. They were prompt in replying to an issue with our cable tv service, regularly checked the air filter for the hvac system, and gave us regular updates on outages, weather issues, etc. We were very impressed with this. The occupants of the neighboring condos were all very friendly. We enjoyed our two months on the island...the surf fishing wasn't the best this winter but we enjoyed our daily walks on the beach and our weekly golf excursions to the Oso Golf Club. This was our fifth year wintering on Padre Island but our first at this condo...we've already booked it for next winter:) "

"Leeward
The rental was everything we expected. We brought our boat and docked right at the boat slips, very convenient. We hope to come back to this place on our next trip to Padre Island."
Nov 11, 2021 - Mike S., Ketchum, OK
"Great location!
This is a great location for fishing and tourist attractions. The condo is steps away from the dock for some night fishing.
The décor is very cute and the condo clean. Great having a washer/dryer and dishwasher.
I highly recommend this condo for a family of four or less.
Check-in and out was so easy. I would say the most convenient I have encountered over all the years we have been vacationing around Padre."

Nice"

"Great family getaway
This rental was very clean and we loved the layout. The property was quiet and hosted mainly families or Winter Texans so we enjoyed the peaceful stay. The fishing isn't the best but was great for our toddler and pre-teen to be able to sit out and catch little fish all night. We really enjoyed having the washer/dryer in the condo and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals and eat on. The pool and hot tub were a nice bonus as well!!"

"Old & Outdated
The unit was older & Outdated. Had a smoke smell throughout the rental. The property management people were fair & trying to accommodate me to another unit, but durning spring break was hard to find another. My only issue was the unit needed updating "
Apr 03, 2021 - Christopher J., Cypress , TX
"Good place to stay
Overall it was a great place to stay! The beds were uncomfortable. I would stay there again, but would definitely bring a foam mattress pad."

Second time to stay, noticed a few issues that need to be corrected-hot tub, fishing lights, wicker rocker chair. Will stay again. Great location."

"Awful vacation
Out of the 3 days that we stayed we had no power/electricity 2 of those days. Power was out was out 9 hours the first day and some of our food went bad. Then when the power went out again! Like really?! We did not get to enjoy any of the amenities inside the house, we could not do the simple things like cooking or making coffee. We had to stay outside because since no power meant no air conditioning it felt like a sauna inside the house. We have stayed in many different condos in that area for many years, we divided to go outside our comfort zone and try this new place and let me tell you it’ll be the last time we go. The pictures of the house look so good but when you are actually arrive all I felt was cramped in this small area. The pool was extremely small and it was also dirty and the jacuzzi did not work. "

"Not too happy
I have been renting with padre escapes for a couple of years now I love rentals for some reason I wasn’t happy with this one it was actually small and it smelled like cigarettes "

"kids first time to beach
over all really good stay, recommend change dead bolt on the door it took us almost 10 min to unlock on one morning its old and very corroded. The coffee pot needs replaced we had to go and buy one. other than that the visit was really great very comfortable.Close to the beach was great.We liked the dock area was great for fishing and relaxing in the evenings."

"Parking is the pits
Overall the property was in good shape. Nice deck and boat slips.
I was very disappointed in promise I received when leasing that I could park my boat trailer in the parking lot, which was not to be. I was told I had to park on the street by mgr. when I refused, based on what I was promised, he contacted Padre Escapes. I went to PE office where I checked in, and was told by mgr that I had to move my truck and trailer both to street, per HOA rules. I will never lease there again, because I was to,d different stories by different people, in effect to get my money but provide no solution for me. Plus, the PE mgr was very cocky in his attitude.
They advertise Pet friendly, but my dog had nowhere to go outside that wasn’t bare ground covered in stickers.
My SIL suffered a puncture wound on his foot one night while taking the dog out. There was rusty rebar sticking out of the concrete on property 1-3”. "
Jun 26, 2018 - Larry E., Bulverde, TX
"Perfect Spot
Condo was very clean & it is in a great location! Opening for the pool is right outside the front door, and the lighted fishing pier was perfect for stocking up on bait fish. The management company was easy to get a hold of whenever I had any questions. Would not hesitate to stay here again!"
Jun 23, 2018 - Damaris V., San Antonio, TX
"Great stay!
I booked this rental based off photos and reviews. I couldn't be happier with the stay. Check in and check out was a breeze. The property was cozy and located close to the beach than I expected. The bath towels that were supplied were brand new so we had little white fuzzies come off every time we used them, and we had a smoke detector start beeping in the middle of the night because the batteries needed changed. Other than those two things our stay way magnificent. I would definitely rent again. "
Jun 10, 2018 - Chad B., Edmond, Oklahoma
"Quick New Year's trip
We ended up spending more time in the rental that we had planned, due to the cold weather. With that being said, it was a perfect little get away for us. My only complaints are items that can not be helped. The shower head is low (very low), but had great water pressure. The other complaint was all of the burrs in the pet area, we ended up taking our dog out back by the water to go potty to avoid all of the burrs. Nothing that wouldn't make us book a stay here again. The beautiful fishing doc/pier as pictured, has yet to be repaired, but we were able to fish from the seawall. :)"

"Wonderful time
We came to visit family and they were able to come visit us and fish out the back door. It was really nice our stay was great. The only downside was the hurricane knocked the dock out so there are just boards. We loved our stay and the mgmt company was great as well "
Dec 29, 2017 - Kristina B., Mesquite, Texas
"Not as expected
The main reason we booked this property was for the lighted fishing pier. Unfortunately, I did not verify that it was still intact after Harvey.
The accommodations are adequate and clean.
The king mattress is quite firm. Extraordinarily so. We had a WiFi issue upon arrival. The Management Company sent someone out IMMEDIATELY and the issue was resolved quickly and professionally. Kudos to Management. "

"it was ok. not good, nor bad
The pool was hot and dirty. i have photos. the fishing off the dock was awful. good luck on catching anything nice (this comes from a man who lives next door). but as for the room it was comfortable and clean."

Very nice condo, loved it. Hopefully next time construction is done and will look even better. Could use a bit of cleaning under the beds for dog hair. "

Great location close to the beach. Property was undergoing a major renovation with construction workers and equipment all over. Administrative check in and out was first class. Tried to make coffee, but no filters were available. "

"never again
Mixed reviews on this rental. The complex is well maintained. The unit we rented was a mixed bag. Spotless linens shrink wrapped from the laundry, but on the cheapest, most uncomfortable beds I've ever encountered in any rental. The kitchen cabinets have picture frame edges that featured a rime of grey fuzz at eye level. Silverware and dishes were dirty. Since we were given 2 dishwasher packs for 4 days I assume that most people run the dishwasher w/o soap when they leave. YUCK! Starting a vacation by loading the dishwasher with all the silverware and glasses isn't my idea of fun. TV is a piece of junk. Wi-fi had very limited bandwidth. Float valve on upstairs toilet ran every 5 minutes, so we just kept the water turned off.
The property management company is in constant contact. Perhaps they could be in constant contact with their maintenance people and clean this place up. Also, stop assuming that most people will go and bring or go buy dishwasher soap and provide 1 package for each day's rental. I won't rent from this owner or management company again. And no, I didn't contact then while I was there because I wanted to enjoy my Thanksgiving holiday and not deal with property management issues while on vacation.

"Great Value for the Price
We enjoyed our stay and plan to stay there again. Great place for a family with pets. Easy walk to the beach. Great fishing dock on the canal in back. Boat slips available if needed. Inside was fine - a little dated, but very clean and quite. Pool is small but nice. Best price for a 2-bedroom condo."

"Nice Location f
Even though it was a rainy, we enjoyed spending time in the condo. When you drive up to the location it's a bit deceiving, the place looks out dated and run down, however the condo we stayed in was nice and clean and perfect for my husband, myself, two kids and two small dogs. The pool is very close to the condos, in the middle, and it got a bit loud with all the young kids in it. I was a little disappointed in the "designated" pet area and the grounds themselves were not well groomed and full of stickers. Actually there was no green grass to be found anywhere. Not very pet friendly. "

"Great for family and kids
I liked the fact that it had a swimming pool and in back of the property a pier for fishing. Since my autistic son really doesn't do to much fishing he really enjoyed the pool while the others enjoyed the fishing. The property seemed cleaned until I woke up and saw that the comforter had white stains on it and had not been cleaned. I called the office and Spoke to Jy (dont want to reveal name) I told him how disguisting and gross to wake up to something like that. He offered another comforter but we had already slept in it so it kind of defeated the purpose at that point. We just used the extra grey blankets in the closet. Upon check out I discovered receipts and some trash underneath the bed no big deal didn't hurt us but when you pay out of your pocket you really don't want to pay for a dirty comforter and trash under your bed. I guess this was overlooked by inspection. "

"If you want a comfortable and clean place to stay, this is NOT it
While at first look, the inside of the property looked like the pictures. However, as we got settled in, we found numerous things that we were not pleased with: 1. The fridge would not stay closed unless we removed the bottom shelf. 2. The air conditioning fan made an annoying, rattling noise while on, which was pretty much constant as outside temps where in the high 90s. 3. The ceiling fan in the main living area made noise while on, which again was pretty much constant. 4.The carpet upstairs was very stained and not vacuumed as there were coins and food on the floor around the bed. 5. When going to bed, we noticed stains on the pillow cases and mattress cover of the hide away bed. 6. The pillows were flat and uncomfortable. I had to go and buy two of my own as these were too uncomfortable. 7. The only comfortable furniture was the couch, as the wicker chair cushion was flat and uncomfortable and kept falling over when sat on. 8. There were bugs crawling on the floor in the bathroom and counter top of the kitchen. 9. The walls were dirty and in need of painting. This unit is much in need of updates and better housekeeping service. The only good point of this unit is the ability to fish off the dock and the pool was decent. I would not recommend this place to anyone and would not stay here again. "

"Summer Getaway with kids
It was very easy to rent and locate once we got there. The cottage was a nice size for our family. I wish there was a king sized bed in the master suite. The only thing is the big trash can on the outside of the property near the street was overflowing our entire stay."

"The Bates Review
Our vacation at your condo was very successful for our family. The location was perfect, easy access to the beach or anywhere else to the island. The condo was clean, plenty of utensils, linens and initial supplies. Thank you for allowing pets, our dog had the best time there playing on the beach. "

"Springbreak 2016
It was perfect for my family- we met some wonderful families while staying and loved the dock- if you spent your day at the beach, it was just a short walk or drive away. The condo itself was nice inside and fit our needs- my only complaint was that the hot tub wasn't working. Apparently it was before we got there, then went out. The nights were chilly, so sitting in the hot tub would have been wonderful. We will definitely come back to this place. "

"Leeward Cottage Cove
Close to the beach, clean, but needs upkeep. The tub didn't drain correctly, the kitchen sink has an issue when you turn on the water, and the upstairs toilet runs every 15 minutes."

"Great long weekend!
This was a last minute trip to the beach with my husband and two kids, ages 3 and 1, and out 2 doxies. Being last minute and also just a long weekend we didn't want to spend too much. Leeward Cove Cottage was perfect for out family! Super affordable, clean, pet friendly, and close to the beach. Everyone we spoke with at Padre Escapes was friendly and willing to help with whatever we would have needed. Would definitely book through them again! "
