We booked 2 nights for our SPI vacation. Once we checked in we ended up booking 3 more nights and spent our entire vacation at Padre South. All of the staff are so friendly, the place is spotless. We had 8th floor south, our view was amazing, kitchenette had everything we needed, bed was super comfortable. The place is older, but still very functional. We were there during off season so the place was pretty much like our very own beachfront property. We hung out be the pool for 2 days and never saw another person. The walk to the beach is super close, convenient & there are showers to wash the sand off. Restaurant next door, CVS & gift shops with in a block. There is also continental breakfast on the weekends. We are definitely coming back, but next time for a much longer stay.
