El Constante 132

Rm 132 was everything we expected and chose from online registration. Property was clean and nicely decorated. Amenities all complete except for a much needed blender to make our margaritas. �� We did notice one other set back....the pool. 2 plastic water bottles floating around plus young adults with glass beer bottles which really shouldn’t be allowed by pool area. Aside from that...a comfortable visit.

I was very pleased with the condo. It was cute, clean and just what we were looking for. I loved that the door opened right to the pool and we were right on the beach too. My only complaint was that during the night the bedroom light would randomly turn on multiple times each night.

- Ashley T. from Cleburne, Posted: 08/26/2024

Thank you for the awesome review and feedback. We are very happy that you enjoyed your stay with Padre Escapes. We welcome you back anytime!

Wonderful property and condo. Steps away from the pool and beach. Condo has modern updates and furniture is comfortable. Would stay again.

The rental was very well appointed with nice furnishings and accessories. The aesthetic was very pleasing for the beach. Wish they had a Keurig for coffee would have been easier. We had everything else we needed. There was a mosquito issue when we arrived they were swarming the front door, they were in condo also and bit us. We had to go buy bug spray at the local CVS and spray around the door on the porch. We called the management office and they chuckled said it was from rain, but everywhere else we went there were no mosquitoes. We were bit a lot and I had a huge bite on my face for the whole trip. It was not pleasant and they didn’t seem to care or offer any assistance.

Thank you for your detailed review. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the condo's furnishings, but apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with the mosquitoes. Unfortunately, due to weather conditions, it can be difficult to control bugs entirely, and we're limited to the HOA's schedule for spraying the grounds. However, we understand how frustrating this must have been, and we?ll work closely with the HOA to try to improve this in the future after heavy rain. Thank you for sharing your experience, and we hope to have the opportunity to host you again under better circumstances.

Been coming for 10 years now I love my room,especially since it’s been updated it’s Beautiful & comfortable, the only thing I would love if it had a lounge chair & also a good floor lamp for reading in the living room...I’ve already booked next year

- Rose M. from Andover, Posted: 04/12/2024

We've stayed at El Constante several times over the past 20+ years. You can't beat the price for a great location.

Thank you for your review! We love hosting your stays as you are always fantastic guests! Thank you for highlighting the level of cleanliness we provide along with the beautiful beachfront location. We look forward to hosting you again soon!

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

Very much liked the location and the complex was excellent. Pool was well maintained. Gas grills worked great. Excellent beach access. Only issue at check-in. We checked with the company as we arrived on the island at 2:00. They said unit was ready and we could check in but it would be an extra $25. Just seemed petty.

- Kyle T. from Overland Park, Posted: 10/24/2023

Thank you for your review and feedback, Mr. Tonjes. We are happy that you enjoyed your stay overall and that you enjoyed the beautiful accommodations! As stated in the rental agreement, we normally can never guarantee an early check-in before our regular 4pm check-in time. We now offer early check-ins by request for a $25 fee so as to better assist our guests in being able to plan their arrival times and their trip appropriately! For any future stay, please call us the day prior to your arrival or on your arrival date so we can provide you with more detail on whether an early check-in will be available! We hope to host you again soon. Thank you for choosing Padre Escapes!

We loved the El Constante 132 unit. Staff at the condo were great and accommodating. Upon our arrival, the power was out at the property from a storm, obviously at no fault to Padre Escapes. However, had we received communication from Padre Escapes that morning when the power went out at 10 AM (according to the AEP link that was later sent in a text from Padre Escapes for tracking the outage), instead of at 3 PM that afternoon, we could have postponed our arrival (coming from San Antonio so not too far) instead of showing up unknowingly to a condo without power and having to find a different hotel that night.

Thank you for your review, we are always looking to evolve and improve the guest experience, so we truly value your feedback.

This condo was wonderful. It was fully stocked with everything you need. It faces the pool but was never noisy. Pool was always clean. Pool bands were available but not enforced. Close to the beach and an easy drive there. Office staff was always friendly. I would recommend this complex and this condo.

It was a nice surprise to see apartment 132 totally upgraded . We like to come every summer with our kids to El Constance and we used to stay in this room too . Nice bathroom, nice kitchen nice ambience . The table I thought it was too small having in mind that we are 4 people in my family .It was hard to all eat in the same time . The only problem it was that we notice one of the drawer was not put together and when we mention it they were very prompt and called back to schedule a time to repair it .

- Antonina S. from San Antonio, Posted: 07/16/2023

It was an honor to have hosted such a wonderful guest! We are happy that our team was quick to assist. You all are welcome back anytime.

My unit had recently been updated & it was Beautiful... always love the location where I can look out & see who is at pool..Also just short walk out the gate to the ocean,I loved walking the seawall everyday...Heated pool & hot tub is great..The management always very helpful❤️

- Rose M. from Andover, Posted: 03/24/2023

Thanks so much for your kind words, Rose! You were an outstanding guest. We truly hope to welcome you back soon for more relaxation next winter! Thank you for choosing Padre Escapes!

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

We love El Constante! The room was immaculate, the bed was comfortable and the kitchen was fully stocked! The room was decorated beautifully! The staff at El Constante was so friendly and helpful. They provided us with extra towels daily and the common area came with coffee, puzzles, and a deck of cards which we borrowed! We had a short vacation but our experience was top notch! I look forward to staying at El Constante in Room 132 again soon!

- Nicole B. from San Antonio , Posted: 03/15/2023

El Constante love you, Nicole! It makes us happy that you were able to enjoy your stay with our friendly staff by your side, and all that our complex was able to offer you! We hope to see you soon with Padre Escapes!

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

On the beach. We were poolside so Everything was convenient pool, laundry room and office were right outside my door way. Everything was great up until lunchtime. Only 2 burners worked in kitchen. Apartment was very limited on cooking Utensils, there were only sauce pans,silverware. Disappointed on kitchen supplies. Otherwise, I would have given à perfect score.

- Sonia E. from San Antonio, Posted: 06/17/2022

Thank you for your review, and hope to see you for your next vacation! We will look into the unit's inventory to make sure it is up to standards in the future.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

Unfortunately when we got there the room was overpowered by smoke smell. The office put an ozone machine and smelled better. HOT TUB was a joke. Needs to be resurfaced badly, rough rough gunite. Was out of order half the trip then Colder than the pool. Had to flip eggs & pancakes with a butter knife. No spatula. Pans were old & scratched. Bed was way way too soft. Nice new sofas. Needs a new sharp potato peeler. Thank goodness for the short walk to the beach. No ice maker. No coffee filters. Have to change your own towels and trash bags. Close new IGA Grocery store. Overall felt we should have been compensated for the imenity hot tub couldn’t use & horrible smell of cigarettes but at least the staff tried to solve the problem.

- Cheryl R. from New Braunfels, Posted: 06/13/2022

Thank you for your review and feedback. We apologize for the condition of the unit upon arrival, and would have be happy to restock any missing items that went overlooked prior to your arrival; we will do an inventory to make sure it is stocked better in the future. The HOA is working on having the hot tub resurfaced this offseason, so we hope that is completed by your next stay to enjoy.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

Loved being walking distance from the beach and the pool was really nice. We expected to have noise issues with our room so close to the pool but our room was nice and quiet. We expressed some concerns about the stove and cleanliness of the bathroom and the front desk took us very seriously and assured us it was not their standards. Would stay again!

- Stevie B. from Burleson, Posted: 06/10/2022

We are glad to hear you enjoyed your stay! Thank you for reporting those issues, they were communicated to our housekeeping staff and maintenance staff to ensure it was taken care of. We look forward to hosting you again!

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

We stayed in this condo before and liked it, so we stayed there again. The experience was different this time with so many other guests in the units beside and above us. Partying late into the evening a couple nights. We are retired, so we probably won't stay in this condo again due to its proximity to the pool. We may try a unit that faces the beach.

- Teresa R. from Pflugerville, Posted: 05/23/2022

Thank you for your feedback. For the future, please make us aware of noise complaints so we may address them with the guests. For you next visit, give us a call direct to ensure you receive your returning guest discount for an OCEAN front unit . Thank you!

We took a group of seniors for senior trip and everything was amazing! The location, pool, and the staff. 10 out of 10

- Tonya P. from Graford, Posted: 04/29/2022

Thank you! It was so much fun hosting you all! Hopefully we can make this a yearly thing for your seniors !

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

Only improvement would be replacing the mattress or getting a topper it was uncomfortable. After visiting some of the other rooms the kitchen & bath could use updating.

- Rose M. from Andover, Posted: 03/12/2022

Thank you for your feedback. We will pass it along to the owner! We hope to host you again.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

Good. The water pressure was way too low.

- Anonymous from Katy, Posted: 12/13/2021

Always a great deal. I love the pool and hot tub and its proximity to the beach. Always a great stay.

Thank you for leaving us a great review! It was our pleasure to host you.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

We enjoyed staying in this unit. The sleeper sofa was comfortable. Just a few more upgrades and this condo will be completely transformed.

- Teresa R. from Pflugerville, Posted: 10/10/2021

The owner is working on some additional updates during the off season as mentioned, we hope to see you back once its completed! Thank you for choosing Padre Escapes at El Constante!

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

We had a GREAT time at our stay! It was clean, a great location, very friendly management, awesome AC, and updated furniture!! The CONS: the unit overall was very outdated (we would still return), and the bed was horribly uncomfortable. Super hard but bouncy...which meant every time we rolled over or moved, the other person was tousled. Even just a mattress topper would help!
Otherwise... I highly recommend!

- Kim H. from LITTLE ELM, Posted: 09/21/2021

While we are thrilled to hear you enjoyed your overall stay with us, we are sorry if your experience could have been better. We have many units here at El Constante and hope we can find you a more updated unit should you visit us again. We are working with this owner on some unit updates, thank you for your feedback.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

It was great overall, only complaint was the bed was very uncomfortable. Everything else was great!

- Gail H. from San Antonio, Posted: 08/13/2021

We will look into that bed, thank you for your feedback.

It was an awesome time to have spent it at El Costante. Now I know where I’ll be booking future vacations stays. Thank you’ll God bless ��������

It was a pleasure to have you! Thank you for booking with us again and we will see you again soon for another awesome stay at El Constante.

Had a great time. Love the resort.

- Samantha C. from Yorktown, Posted: 07/21/2020

We had nice two night experience with family in other condos as well. We did get delayed from checking in by a plumbing problem that needed to be corrected. After checking in we discovered that unit 132 was clean but WELL DATED. This unit should not be rented for the same rate as comparable sized units until it is updated with better furniture, plumbing fixtures and just a a general fix up. Other family members had very nice units and we felt like we were in the Motel 6 version for our unit. I would recommend the property but not unit 132.

- Harold I. from Fairview, Posted: 06/18/2020

Thank you for the feedback, this owner is actively working on some updates.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

Love the community feeling with a lot of events to engage. Also love the pool the few times it wasn’t warm enough it was checked & temp adjusted. I just wish my owner would update this was my 3rd stay for winter,Seems this room hasn’t been updated since the 80’s..I visited a lot of other rooms there that was much nicer.I think they should all be about the same upgrades in all. The office staff is great very helpful.

- Rose M. from Andover, Posted: 03/14/2020

Thank you for the feedback, we've been working with this owner on getting some updates done and they are actively working on it.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

We checked in on a Sunday; the property was clean and well maintained. However, the condo above us was rented(for the third year in a row) to a family who brought along their pet buffalo herd!! Never heard so much running, stomping, yelling, etc. We called the office and complained and it would stop...for a while! Secondly, the mattress in unit 132 was horrible. I had to get up every morning and sit for a few minutes until my back could support me standing up.

- Ron/Carole D. from Richardson, Posted: 07/25/2019

Thank you for the feedback. I'm surprised to hear the complaint about buffalo above you. That unit is not pet-friendly. Good thing those guests aren't always there with there buffalo. We will pass along your concerns about the mattress to the owner but that is not an issue we typically hear from this property. We apologize for the inconvenience and hope we see you back again soon.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

Very nice space to reconnect with you and the nature. The bed and sofa in living room were very comfy and allowed us to rest from many trips to the ��. The walking distance to the beach make my kids very happy. Every morning we went to the ocean and back in to the pool in front of the property . The location is perfect for our family with 2 active boys. Is the 2nd time coming to this room and we plan on coming back.

- Antonina S. from San Antonio, Posted: 07/22/2019

Thank you for the feedback, hope we see you back again soon.

- Padre Escapes staff, Posted:

First and foremost the furniture is outdated and the bed is uncomfortable..BUT that's nether here nor there!!The condo was clean and simple, limited dishware but do-able. A/C worked very well and there was hot water. The location is perfect, right by the pool. No complaints, but 1, upstairs,I'm pretty sure there were kids because you could swear they were sprinting back and forth throughout the night. And then again in the morning. And when leaving the condo, we have to make sure the door closed. But none of this warrant dissatisfaction. Me and my family had a wonderful time. Check in was simple as well as checking out! We will be coming back. Location was right on the beach. My only complaint is : there was no full body shower on property, only a foot shower to rinse off.

- Jamie L. from Austin, Posted: 06/25/2019

Wonderful stay! The room was cozy and perfect. The only thing I would recommend is instructions left on how to navigate the television. There were 3 remotes!! I ended up having to go to the office to have them show me how and which ones to use.

- Ashley S. from La Grange, Posted: 05/28/2019

The most friendly front desk everything I needed they helped me room was clean & comfortable.The Winter Texans are Great here they have alot of activities to keep you as busy as you want.Already looking forward to my room next Winter.

Great to hear! We're looking forward to having you back again next year!

We love coming to El Constante, have been coming for years! We notice though that some ammenities like coffee filters are not provided anymore, it's not a big deal but it would have been nice to know about it ahead of time. Also the place could stand a thorough cleaning. Other than that it is great!!!

Everything was really nice. Front desk personnel were helpful. Beach was just a walk away which made it really easy to go and come all day. We will definitely be back.

- Anonymous from Austin, Posted: 07/08/2018

We enjoyed our stay at El Constante at North Padre Island. The location was easily accessible the accommodations were clean and good repair. There was after hour adherence in the pool and security on the property.

- Martha R. from San Antonio, Posted: 07/03/2018

We go from 5 years with my kids and we love it

- Antonina S. from San Antonio, Posted: 05/23/2018

I really enjoyed my stay. Great location (right on the sea wall) & pool. The complex was going through a renovation creating a construction site feel (but it is nice to see the up keep happening) I do think the management should mention or post this. (reason I am giving 4 stars because of construction) Nonetheless, I really endjoyed condo 132 because I could relax/layout right in front of my door & steps away from the pool. I liked the long pool hours. The front desk folks are great and accommodating. The condo itself had a huge tv and huge bed which makes the stay even better.
I will be going back.

- Michael C. from Huntington Beach, Posted: 10/22/2017

Sandy beach; nice pool. Nice condo...VERY EXPENSIVE!
