Top South Padre Island Beach Hotel Reviews

Courtyard by Marriott South Padre Island

Courtyard by Marriott South Padre Island

8/10 Good
"We usually stay at a family condo when we visit SPI, but we thought we'd try a hotel instead. The check-in was quick. There was no hand soap in the bathroom, and I had to call for some. Parking was a bit inconvenient at times, since most of it is across the street. Housekeeping came very late in the day, and I just took some clean towels from her. The pool was clean and water temp conformable. We didn't try the breakfast since we have our favorite restaurants we like to visit."

"This house is amazing. We spent four nights there over Labor Day weekend. It was a perfect weekend. The house, the six bedrooms and six bathrooms the kitchen all of it was beautiful. It’s beautifully decorated and the view from the second floor, where the kitchen and dining room and living room are was amazing. We loved every minute of it.
