Great stay at Lighthouse Inn in South Padre Island! The staff was friendly and welcoming. Special shout-out to Kim at the front desk for her kindness and excellent customer service. We’ll definitely be back!
The room exceeded expectations, and the staff was helpful and always made us feel welcome. It has a nice location near the beach, and I will definitely be back.
Everybody was cool and very friendly. Environment is just as expected and the amenities were great, the beach is very close to the property as said in the listing which i was very glad for. Definitely recommend bringing your friend or loved one for a small nice place to stay at.
While the staff was helpful, the towels were so threadbare, they were almost transparent. Additionally, the shower would turn cold after approximately five minutes. This place was far below excellent.
Although the Lighthouse is an older property, it was extremely clean and well-maintained. It has recently had upgrades that improved the aesthetic. It was a great stay at an excellent price!
Room was clean overall, so the cleaning staff is doing a good job. No breakfasts at all despite being heavily advertised and you must pay an extra 15 dollars to simply park your car on the property?? Front desk is open late so that could be helpful if needed. Overall not impressed but at least we had a place to stay for the night.
This place was very clean and looked to be remodeled recently. It was so nice and roomy. The mini split kept the room nice and cool. The only issue was that the walls are pretty thin and we could hear the neighbor’s conversations. Other than that, it was a nice stay next to the bay. You do have to pay for parking.
Great lil place to stay. Not far walking from beach or any shopping place. The front counter lady was absolutely the sweetest and very helpful with information regarding island. Toilet ran all night but really no complaints cause room was cold. Grab snacks and drinks cause outside machines dont work but rooms have a fridge and microwave.
We have stayed at this property a few times. Always very comfortable. The property is clean, well lit and secure. The parking lot is clean, easy to access and well lit.
