As it was our first visit to SPI, we could not have been more fortunate than to have such a wonderful place to hang our beach towels (so to speak) than this condo! Everything you could possibly need is there! Including a beautiful view of the beach and ocean!
I would highly recommend this to anyone and hope to be back again and again! |

Nick and Lana's condo at South Padre was the perfect place. It was one of the last condo's on the south end of the island, so it seemed the beach was more quiet. The view was perfect. The condo was extremely comfortable and so clean. We will definitely stay there again.

| WOW, what a wonderful home away from home. Everything you need has been supplied. Our family has stayed at several different condos for family vacations but have never stayed at anything as wonderful as this. You can not get any better than this. Thank you Lana and Nick you have done a great job. Jean Hall and Family |

Awesome Condo - it was perfect for 2 families - 8
people. the view was beautiful and the location on
the beach at the end of the island definately was a
plus b/c the beach outside the condo was private
access only - it did feel like a private beach even
though you could see all the people. We did the
Sea Turtle release one morning - that was very cool
and with our 2 3 year olds, we also did the Pirate
Ship Excursion out of Port Isabel - phenomenal -
kids loved it & the cruise was action packed for 2
hours. Worth the money and took lots of pictures.
:)We will go back next year to Nick & Lana's condo -
reasonable price and we loved it. Thanks! |

| The condo was beautifully decorated and well stocked. My family of 5 was very comfortable. I would and will recommend this condo to friends. The view from the balcony was beautiful. If you get a chance to watch a sea turtle release, go- it was amazing. The only knock I have would be trash on the beach. We went down daily with a trash bag to clean up. |

| We had a wonderful week in South Padre - Nick and Lana's condo offered everything we needed. The beach access was great and we liked how private it felt. We really enjoyed getting to know the "regulars" who winter in Texas. Our two families had plenty of space and had a very enjoyable vacation away from the Minnesota cold. Thanks! |

| My family and I had a wonderful vacation on South Padre Island, and we loved Nick and Lana's condo. It was clean, comfortable and provided everything we needed as well as many extras - my boys loved the boogie boards! Best of all was the view of the ocean - it was amazing! My memories of sitting on the balcony watching the sun come up over the ocean will help get me through the rest of this cold Canadian winter! Thanks Nick & Lana! |

We had a great five days in your beautiful condo. We were with 2 other couples and they all loved it too. The weather was great and we ate at many good places. One day we spent about 5 hours at the pool and hot tub. It was wonderful.
The only thing was that we could not hook up to the internet. But we were so busy, that wasn't that important. We would love to come back again. We had a very good view and the last day there we saw dolphins in the water from the balcony. Thanks again. |

| Lana & Nick, sorry we're just getting around to putting our comment on your site. Just wanted to say THANK YOU. We had a much needed quiet and peaceful Thanksgiving. The view is incredible and the access to the beach unbelievable. Everything was perfect. The only negative was the fact we had to leave. However, we're looking forward to going back as soon as possible. Talk to you soon! |

| We arrived just a little over a week after Hurricane Dolly hit the Island and weren't really sure what to expect. Even though the complex the condo is in sustained damage Lana & Nick's condo surprisingly had no damage and was great! The view is amazing and the condo very clean plus the kids things they have on hand were excellent to have! There were some issues we had to deal with (no elevator, loud generators running, big cords in lots of places and access to the beach not as easy as normal) but Lana & Nick worked with us to insure that we had a nice stay. We did have a good stay and pretty much had the two pools at the complex and the beach to ourselves - so nice! The Island itself was still working on the clean up so it wasn't crowded either. We had a wonderful family vacation with our three kids & parents and definitely look forward to returning again. You can't beat the view from the condo and the awesome beach! |

| Our vacation was cut short by Hurricane Dolly. The first 3 days were wonderful. The condo was everything we could have hoped for...so many extras and very clean. We can't wait to return. Luckily, we all made it through the hurricane safely and with no damage to the unit either. Nick and Lana were very gracious about our vacation being cut short. Look forward to going back and being able to stay the full week next time! |

| We satyed at Nick and Lana's condo from 4/7/07 - 4/14/07 and had a wonderful time. The condo was neat, clean, and had everything that Nick and Lana claimed it had. It was at the quiet end of the beach but if you wanted to be in the mix, take a short 5 minute walk up the beach. The beach was cleaned daily by the City of SPI. All in all it was a very nice place to stay and we had 6 adults with plenty of room. The two pools were clean and heated. Great Place! |

Our week in your condo was great. The weather was perfect for long walks on the beach and lounging by the pool.
Watching the windsurfers from our window and walking to the jetty to watch for dolphins in the bay was fun. We spent a day in Mexico shopping for bargains and in the evening discovered a great dance band "Pelican West" that plays nightly at the Radisson which is a few doors down from the Sea Vista.
What we appreciated most was the quiet atmosphere and the feeling of seclusion. No noisy crowds, just peaceful days and evenings to enjoy our family. It really was hard to pick up and leave. We would highly recommend this beautiful condo to other
families. |

We had an amazing time. The construction did not really bother us that
much. We had some light rain, but nothing to damper our beach time. The
condo was PERFECT!!!! what a wonderful place. It will look amazing when
they are finished with the renovations...we enjoyed the island quite a bit.
We spent a couple of days at the waterpark, did a Dolphin cruise, enjoyed
Scampi's restaurant...the guys got in 2 days of golf and LOTS OF SUN AT THE
BEACH!!!!
Thank you for being willing to share your place with us.
