Overall it was a good experience. Pretty much everything you might need at home to cook is there, albeit a hunt to find it. Parking is excellent and location to beach superb. As for me, my house is kept significantly cleaner. We have friends who live on the island who also rent thier personally owned condo most of the year, and they also struggle to find competent cleaning services. For the price, its fair, but in the future, I will probably opt for a 5 star hotel suite instead.
Our family enjoys staying here because it feels just like home! The condo is roomy and spacious. Our favorite part is the swimming pool & outdoor area! Always a great time!
This was our first time in South Padre after past years spent in Arizona & Florida. We loved the location, just steps from the beach. The unit was exactly as pictured. The owners do a great job maintaining their property. The island had much to offer. We spent lots of time by the pool & hot tub, viewing the Space X launch, walks and games on the beach, dining in the local restaurants and listening to local musicians several times a week. The other renters were very courteous. Our family visited with their dog, Millie. She loved the long walks on the beach and being able to accompany us to some of the restaurants and music offerings. The management was quick to respond when we had questions. This will not be our last visit to the island!
Enjoyable and clean home. Great location for food, entertainment and the beach. Host communicated very well. Check in and out was easy. The kids had a good time at the pool. The overall experience was great, we had a good time.
Wonderful property, great location to the beach and activities, Amber took care of all of our needs and the managers answered promptly. We would def stay here again...
The Athena Ares is beautiful. The condos were clean and nicely furnished. The pool area was wonderful to have a backyard meal and dip in the pool. We had a generour area to walk our dogs and keep them safe. I would recommend these condos to anyone who would like an area for the whole family to rent all 6 condos or just 2 condos. Parking was great, we did not have to park end to end like some other areas require you to do.Thank you to the family, grounds keepers and house keeping for making these condos clean and welcoming.
As always Athena Aries was wonderful. Our stay was seamless with great communication from management and the condition of our condo. Thank yâall. Canât wait to come back again.

We enjoyed our stay at Athena Ares!! All the comforts of home. Everything you need for a day at the beach with a perfect patio to relax in the evening. Everything about this location is perfect. The beach is right across the street. Walking distance to several restaurants. Enjoyed our stay!!
The apartment was nicely furnished and well equipped with everything we needed.
Water pressure in master bathroom was low, and there were problems with guest bedroom shower.
Overall though this was a nice facility in a nice area of the island.
The condo was great, very clean and had plenty of room. My family enjoyed our little get away and enjoyed the pool which was very clean and very well maintained. The location of the condo was great, just a short walk to the beach where we all enjoyed the sand and water. I would definitely recommend this property to others and I see my family returning to this condo again.
Location canât be beat! Across the street from beach without all the blowing sands or dampness. We have been coming to SPI for 10 years for a winter getaway and This was our second winter here and the best equipped condo we have stayed in! Amber from the management company is very attentive to all of our needs and wants. Best of all is the heated pool and hot tub, and outdoor kitchen with tv. Great for gatherings and super bowl parties.
From check in to check out was effortless. Property was impeccably clean, my kids and i were very impressed with the setting. Everything to make this vacation a home away from home was as expected. Even when i called for assistance, the response was immediate. Will definitely recommend this property to my friends who plan to visit SPI. Location and neighborhood very lovely. Thanks guys for everything.
The location is great! We can easily head back to the condo for lunch or just to grab more digging stuff. Then it's just a 1-2 minute walk back across the street and we are there, in the water! We also love walking down to the Wanna Wanna Inn for fried shrimp, cold beer, and good music. When our family comes to visit, we stay in all of the condos and spread out. We get to enjoy being close together without listening to each other snore!
