Overall a great stay with issues.

The Bahia Mar is a nice, well kept property with security. Excellent location, further out from busy part of island but close enough for a run to grocery stores. Pros: easy parking, beach access, swimming pools, security. I would consider staying again but not in same unit. Our unit is outdated with old plumbing fixtures. Toilets slow flush. TV only worked in living room. A couple of days there were sewer or mildew smell in master bathroom. Ant problems in master bath. We had to buy Raid. Limited cooking utensils as well as pots and pans. No coffee maker- glass carafe was gone. Also, the property owner failed to notify us that there is construction below our unit. For 2 days, we had to walk through scaffolding with construction workers and equipment. Towel service was inconvenient. We had to drive to property office to exchange towels between 11-3. I'm not a big complainer but small issues like these are nuisance during vacations.

Overall nice for the island.

It was nice and close to the water for sure. Loved having a kitchen and more space than a hotel for the number of people we had. I will say a few things to expect. -mildew and moldy vents that also drip water - pantry ceiling dropped water down two shelves of pantry items -had a mildew smell -AC works well -nice bathroom -Cockroaches in the bathroom that came out at night -dishwasher - the check in building is also the “front desk” is a couple blocks away from the resort which is a bit inconvenient. -there was a pull out couch but no blanket anywhere so we had to go back to the front desk to get one. -There’s a broom and a mop but no mop bucket. Could use a vacuum or at least a mop bucket and soap because the floors get covered quickly with sand and there’s no rugs. -if you have guests staying nearby you won’t be able to get them in to visit. -pool hours are 9am-9:50pm wish they opened earlier! The hot tub was very nice and hot! -easy fast walk to the beach -you want linens or towels washed it’s .50 an item and you again have to drive them to the front desk. -No spices in kitchen not even salt or pan oil so if you get groceries add those! -one sharp knife that was supperrrr dull!! -enjoyed having most kitchen items needed -all tile was nice -sitting area by pools are great and the chairs and tables by the ocean! -loved the shallow plateau in the pool for the kids. -have to pay a fee the use the grills -hardly saw other kids here but did at the beach. -master bedroom was super bright at night and in the morning.

A little bummed

Pros- Great location, safe, not crowded, tiny beach view from master bedroom, enough space for my family of six. Cons- The sliding door on the balcony is very difficult/dangerous to open and it leaked A LOT of water during the storm. We had to use our bath towels to stop from flooding the living room. The water in both showers never got hot, which was particularly awful when we were cold and wet from running back from the beach in the storm. The toilets clogged super easily and we had to plunge them often. Last, the pans we used had the non stick coating peeling off, which made me feel uneasy cooking on them. We really enjoyed Bahia Mar, but we will not be returning to this particular unit.

This property is okay. It could definitely use a really good cleaning. Coffee pot was horrible. Made the worst cup of coffee I have ever tasted. Had to go buy one at store. Pools were nice. Beach area kinda small. Lush 15 acre garden is a little bit of a stretch.

Nice getaway

Great location, short walk to the beach, two pools if that's your preference. Added perk of gated community. Bathrooms have a little mold in the showers but the rest of the condo was in great shape. Would stay at this complex again.

Very spacious unit - perfect for grown teenagers and parents.

This was a great unit for the price. It was perfect for our family of two teenage boys - who had plenty of space in their bedroom and bathroom. We loved that it was separate and not close to our bedroom that was huge with a King size bed and a huge master bathroom with a great vanity. The outside balcony was nice with new tile. My kids loved running down to the pool and hot tub. I would highly recommend. I also loved that I came home with clean laundry....the unit has it's own washer/dryer combo. The kitchen was spacious enough to cook comfortably in and the counter seating and dining seating were great.

Truly a hidden gem.

This was our first HomeAway stay. It certainly won't be our last. We went to South Padre for a running festival and expected to stay in a hotel, as usual. But, the hotels in the area were less-than-stellar. So, we decided to browse the HomeAway listings in the area and found this property. For about the same overall cost as the hotel would have been, we were able to enjoy a very nice stay in a private condo on the beach with all the amenities. About this property: This is a very comfortable, clean, and spacious condo located on the beach. But, maybe the best thing about this place is the sense of having your own private slice of the beach. There is a very large private deck/boardwalk next to the beach that is furnished with various sitting areas (lounge chairs, tables, sofas, umbrellas, etc). My wife and I probably enjoyed this space most of all. This is a great place to enjoy morning coffee and evening cocktails, if you are so inclined. Near the deck area there is a very nice swimming pool and hot tub with beach views, as well. My teenage and young adult children preferred this area. The living space is a two bedroom / two bath apartment complete with separate decks for each bedroom. There is a common living room, kitchen, and dining area. The kitchen is setup with all the necessary items for cooking and cleaning. Overall, the place was immaculate and inviting when we arrived. It was nice to have separate living areas for the parents and older children. The apartment decks are spacious, but the ocean view is limited as the apartment sits behind other units. There is an ocean view from one end of the master bedroom deck, but otherwise the view is obstructed by other units. That being said, the landscaping on the property is very well manicured and easy look at while on the deck. A wrist band and parking permit are required for entrance to the grounds. This is monitored closely by onsite security. You never have to worry about stolen items, vandalism, or overcrowding of pool/deck areas. You rarely get this relaxing sense of security and privacy at a hotel. As far as activities and attractions go, there are countless things to do and places to go on South Padre; many of which are within walking distance of this property. I would definitely recommend this vacation home to a friend.
