I was literally told that it depends on the bartender what they decide to charge! And be careful not to get price gauged on your whiskey/water. I got charged a $2.50 upgrade for water "mix." It was refunded after I spoke to the manager but with no apologies. And actually, she only refunded me the $2. I had to request the .50. By this time it's was just the point of the matter. But DO take advantage of the food and drink "all inclusive" offer. It's a great deal!

The hotel offers perfect views and direct beach access. Barry's food was both delicious and convenient, and the beach bar had a fantastic DJ--highly recommend it for a relaxing evening by the water. Our room was extremely comfortable, and I was impressed with the size of the balcony. There was plenty of parking, and the hotel is conveniently located right across the street from the Sea Turtle Conservation Center. The front desk staff were kind, friendly, and very helpful when we reported an issue with our shower handle. We would absolutely stay here again in the future!

This is the absolute worst place that I have ever stayed. It's straight garbage. The staff is…read moreincredibly rude. Despite paying 80% when booking, which is what it asked for, they called as we were driving there, to tell us that we hadn't checked in and they need the rest of the money, and wanted us to give them our credit card over the phone - keep in mind that it was 11am, and before we could possibly check in. Beyond that, giving a credit card number over the phone is a great way to have a bad day, which was validated later. We ended up getting there, and it is a DUMP. I mean rotten wood, mold, peeled paint, nasty smells. Dirty common areas that were filthy the whole time we were there. The room had stuff all over the floors that hadn't been cleaned from the prior guests. When you are there, don't plan to sleep. They have nightly live music that is incredibly loud, and there is no part of the property that you can't hear it. People are drunk and yelling and screaming till 2-3am every night. No amount of ear plugs can enable sleep. Any questions of staff are met with disdain. The food is disgusting and I literally threw up from it the last night we were there. Drinks are the worst I've ever had. Didn't even bother to blend the Mudslide that I ordered. Keep in mind, that I like Waffle House, so for me to call this place terrible, it's legitimately terrible. Oh, and the TV stored my AppleTV login info, even though I fully logged out, and I find out yesterday that someone has rented $180 of movies this week that I am now having to fight.

My family and I stayed here for two weeks, and I'm just going to say--the hallways felt pretty…read moreclaustrophobic and really tight. There was only one operating elevator for most of our stay, and our room key card stopped working around eight times. Each time, we had to go down to the front desk to get it fixed. The rooms weren't terrible, but there was mold growing on the AC unit. I didn't make a big deal about it since it was just a small patch. However, there were three holes in the shower, along with mold growing at the top of the shower on the ceiling. On approximately the third night, I lifted a washcloth and a big eyelash fell out of it--which definitely didn't belong to anyone in my family. Then, on the last night around 1 a.m., there was loud screaming, yelling, and banging. It sounded like parents talking very loudly and kids running up and down the halls, just screaming. It went on for a good 30 minutes and woke up my entire family. My dad called the front desk, but I don't think anyone actually came up, because the noise continued for another 15 minutes after the call. Overall, the stay wasn't that bad--you honestly get what you pay for. It was nice that we could just walk to the beach, but we probably won't be coming back.

The fixtures (tub, shower, balcony)in the room are outdated. I stayed in the King Oceanfront with Jetted Tub. It was probably one of the biggest rooms I've ever stayed in. The balcony is a little too small though, and there are only 2 chairs. Definitely could use a table and extra space for lounging and taking photos. The location is nice, an accessible path to the beach and about a 5 min drive to restaurants and shops. The parking lot does get full quickly but I appreciated that parking was included. The on-site restaurant was nice for drinks and dinner while lounging at the pool. I enjoyed the shrimp tacos and fish sandwich and everything is reasonably priced. I also enjoyed the included breakfast.

We drove down from San Antonio for what was supposed to be a special weekend trip, but our…read moreexperience at Margaritaville was incredibly disappointing. This trip was on our bucket list because we had heard so many great things, but the reality did not live up to the brand's name. The Check-In Disaster Before booking, I contacted the resort to request an early check-in since we were driving from far out of town for just a one-night stay. I was told, "Rest assured, early check-in is available for a fee," which I gladly agreed to. We arrived on Saturday around 1:00 PM, and were given a key to the "last available room." When we walked into the room, there was a naked man inside. Shocked, we went straight back to the front desk. Instead of an apology, the clerk gave me an attitude and snapped that check-in wasn't until 4:00 PM. I explained that we had a pre-approved early check-in so we could change and enjoy the pool and beach, but she simply told us no rooms were available because they had given them to other guests first. Broken Promises & Poor Amenities While we were waiting at the resort restaurant to grab a bite to eat, a manager called to let us know a room was ready. To make up for the naked stranger incident, he promised us a free dinner. Unfortunately, that free dinner never happened--it was an empty promise. When we finally got into a room, it was sufficient, but the rest of the property was highly underwhelming: The Hotel Cleanliness: The entire property was very dirty. The bathrooms looked like they hadn't been deep-cleaned in ages. The Atmosphere & Drinks: The pools were overrun with kids who showed zero respect for older guests, and the drinks at the bar were sub-par. The EV Charger Situation: No one polices the EV charging stations. Despite clear signs stating "No Overnight Parking," people leave their cars parked there indefinitely, completely blocking anyone else from having the opportunity to charge their vehicles. Final Verdict We will never return to this location. Aside from our terrible customer service experience, South Padre Island is just too far of a drive from San Antonio for what you actually get. If you want a beach weekend, you are much better off driving to Galveston. You will get the exact same environment, but with far more options and better service.

We are only one night into what was supposed to be a relaxing resort stay, and it has already been…read moreone of the most frustrating hotel experiences we've ever had. From the moment we checked into our room, there were multiple leaks coming from the ceiling while we checked in and the ceiling of the elevators, creating an unacceptable and uncomfortable environment. To make matters worse, both the shower and sink water smelled strongly of sewage, making basic hygiene unpleasant and concerning. No one was able to shower, brush their teeth or even drink water. We were patient and understanding, giving the hotel ample opportunity to address the issues. They sent a random maintenance man to come "clean the drains" and acted dismissive and bothered by our request. By 10:00 AM, after the problems persisted, we requested a room change. Instead of taking immediate action, we were repeatedly told someone would call us back with an update. Those calls never came. We were forced to continuously follow up ourselves just to get information. By 4pm, they FINALLY told us that our room would be ready within 15 minutes. The replacement room is also a disappointment. We paid extra for a larger room with a specific view and bathtubs, yet the room we were moved to is noticeably smaller and does not match what we originally purchased. We essentially paid a premium for accommodations we no longer have. The customer service throughout this experience has been shockingly poor. After finally arranging a room transfer, the front desk informed us we had one hour to vacate our original room. Then, with ten minutes still remaining before that deadline, we were threatened that the transfer would be canceled because we were "not moving quickly enough." The complete lack of empathy, professionalism, and basic courtesy was astounding. So we were allowed to wait all day for them to rectify the situation but we only had less than an hour at ANY given time to get out when it best suited them? Not to mention, the workers walked into our room without knocking and walked in on us changing and gathering our belongings which is a huge violation. What makes this even more disappointing is that our group has provided this property with multiple room bookings and approximately 10 guests during our stays. Despite being loyal customers and remaining respectful throughout this ordeal, we were treated as though our concerns were an inconvenience. Between the leaking ceilings, sewage-smelling water, unexplained extra charges at the pool bar, failure to communicate, downgrade in accommodations, and hostile customer service, this resort has demonstrated a complete disregard for guest satisfaction. We will not be returning, and based on this experience, I cannot recommend this property to anyone. There are far too many resorts that value their guests to spend your money at one that clearly does not. What's ironic is that this place has so much potential of being amazing. Most of the staff is great, but solely MANAGEMENT needs a refresher on what the hospitality business entails. Especially Imelda.
