Cozy, clean, comfortable & convenient.

Perfect small but cozy studio apartment right on the beach. Our stay was absolutely wonderful. The only problem that we encountered Was that we left our jackets at home in Harlingen but the condo was perfect, the premise and common areas were clean and well maintained safe and secure. We had a wonderful time. We hope to be back.

This condo had everything we needed and was right on the beach. A little snug so I wouldn’t go more than 2 people. The beach gear was so helpful and we enjoyed our time there.

Hard to sleep, too much noise

The AC compressor was the loudest we have ever heard and the dehumidifier added to the noise by a banging sound when it went on and off. The only night we could sleep was when we lost power. I’d recommend both of these units be replaced before you try to rent this unit again.

Excellent location, clean grounds, and felt very safe. Our rental was very well equipped with everything we needed. Glitches with the AC and dehumidifier were the only downfalls, this could have been repaired quickly if communication with management responded.

SPI Florence condo

Nice, except the elevator (6 story condo) was out of order for a 12 hour or so period of time. Also, it sounded like the unit above was getting its tile floor chipped up. Hammering, jack hammering. Also, had to vacate the condo when the fire alarm want off. Malfunction? somebody said. Otherwise, really nice.

Perfect

My friends and I took a short 1 day turn around trip to spend the day on the beach. This was the perfect spot and the perfect accommodation for our purpose. Everything we needed was there, it was right on the beach and had a small kitchen for what we needed to use it for. Thank you so much for hosting us!
