RESERVE 7 NIGHTS FOR THE PRICE OF 6 ALL YEAR LONG...

Our condo is better than new. Combined with a $2.5 million building renovation during the 2016-2017 winter, we did a complete renovation on our 6th floor condo. The view from the oversized corner balcony can't be better. Here's what we did during our renovation...

New porcelain floor tile throughout
New kitchen cabinets with soft close doors and drawers, stainless apron front sink, granite counter top, and glass tile back splash
All new stainless steel (slate) GE appliances
Enlarged bathroom to increase space
Removed bathtub/shower combo and replaced with tiled walk in shower
New custom built vanity with glass vessel sink and glass tile back splash
Ceiling fans added to bedroom and great room
All new furniture - including balcony furniture
Completely repainted

Photos detailing the entire project can be found on my Shangri-La SPI facebook page.

Great place
This was a great condo and extremely clean. It had all the kitchen essentials that you need! The deck and view are better then the picture and the owner helped us if we needed any questions answered.

Best Condo Right on the Beach
I have stayed in this building several times before but not in this privately owned condo through VRBO. The condo has been beautifully updated and decorated and has everything you might need. Check-in and check-out was a breeze and the owner Brian made sure we were all set throughout the whole process. Condo is right on the beach with amazing views. We will be back again soon!

Beautiful Beachfront Condo
My husband and I spent 3 nights at this beautifully renovated unit. The pictures do not do it justice! The unit was well stocked with anything you could need, from a large array of spices to thick plush bath towels and high quality bed linens. There were beach towels, chairs and umbrellas available to take to the beach. The view from the lanai was breathtaking. Brian was great to work with, answering our questions prior to the trip promptly, and checking in on us upon arrival and during our stay. We would highly recommend this unit and we plan to come back!

Nicest unit
We have stayed in the Inverness 8 times. This unit was the nicest and bidets 1 bedroom unit we have ever stayed in. So many nice little added amenities…paper napkins, binoculars, beach chairs and umbrellas, games, plenty of toilet paper and towels (good quality), very nice beach towels, good range of kitchen utensils, all quality items. Overall wall decor was quite tasteful, but there were too many nic nac items covering the tables an taking up room on the floor using space for me to set my stuff.

About the host

Hosted by Brian

Host profile image
My wife and I got our education in Texas, got married in Texas, and gave birth to our daughter in Texas. Then I started working as an engineer in the automotive industry and we moved to Michigan where we lived for about 25 years. I retired from that job and we moved back to Texas to get away from the snow, and to be able to ride our motorcycles year round. We love South Padre Island and wanted a place for family to come visit. This is our home away from home.

Why they chose this property

We chose this condo for several reasons.

First, the section of beach in front of the building is less busy than other areas of the beach. Public beach access in this area is limited, therefore the beach does not get very crowded.

Second, this area of the Island is quiet and peaceful, but you can easily walk North or South for some excitement. Clayton's Beach Bar is only 0.7 miles to the North, and Wanna Wanna is less than half a mile to the South.

We especially enjoy the sunrise while drinking our morning coffee on the balcony. Since we are located on the North corner of the building the views up the island are fantastic, and you can even see the fireworks show every weekend in the summer.

The building recently completed a $2.5 million exterior renovation that includes new railings, new paint, tiled walkways, elevator improvements, and access gates to the inside parking areas.

What makes this property unique

Our corner balcony faces the water and gives views of the beach, and the island to the North. This is a great place to sit with a fresh cup of coffee and watch the sun rise over the Gulf. From the front door you can see the island and watch sunsets over the bay. During the summer, weekend fireworks shows can be seen from both the gulf side, and the bay side of the condo.
