The restraunt had amazing service and food, we ate there several days. The rooms smelled kind of musky. The rooms were very clean but bed and pull out couch were not very comfortable.

We loved everything about this cute boutique style hotel. It’s an older hotel but kept very nice. The cafe was so good that we ate there at least once a day during our stay. We will definitely stay here again!

Retro means old. Built in 1972. Posted pictures did not reveal true-to-life circumstances. It was very clean and neat. Staff were very nice and professional. Restaurant very petite, but the food is fabulous. Hotel just wasnt what we wanted or expected. Had a great location. No ocean view except at restaurant,pool or parking lot. An economy hotel.

Beautiful area. Great for walking. The rooms were small but quite adequate. Very quaint. My only issue was the listing that said heated outdoor pool. The pool area was nice, but definitely not heated.

Beach access was just steps away from of our room. Love the convenience of the restaurant downstairs. The food and staff are great! Room was very clean and property was calm and quiet. If I could change one thing about our stay it would be the pillows, which were very lumpy and not very comfortable. We didn’t think to ask for different ones, or bring our own. But we will stay again, when we re-visit South Padre.

The staff was very helpful when checking in. The Cafe has great food, staff is nice and a beautiful view of the beach. The cleaning crew was helpful and worked around our schedule. The security crew was also friendly! If it's too cold to jump in the ocean you have the heated pool. The location is great walking distance to several restaurants and bars. The room itself was very clean and the bed was comfortable. The building is an older building but everything worked fine! We will be back!

For being an old hotel the room was clean and no strange smell like other places ive stayed. Very comfortable, friendly staff. Food was good and did not have a need to leave the hotel so it was nothing but relax, enjoy the beach and watch the launch

The place was really cute and we got a nice room facing the beach. We stayed at the Palms because of the beach views & the cafe. Our only concern was that the coffee & breakfast at the cafe was not the greatest and it was really over priced for the quality.

I like the charm of small hotel and walking out to the beach. I do not like the busy, crowded parking lot. Views are not great making the room feel enclosed. Door to bathroom was in the way in a tight space and there are no area rugs by the bed and floor was too cold. The cafe is great but with limited seating. Second floor rooms have a better view because the 1st floor ones look out to the cars in the parking lot. The place is quiet at night and roomy with good sized refrigerator for those who stay longer. Clean and comfortable bed.

Older property. Could use a renovation but it was mostly clean, no bugs and everything worked. A/c was loud but worked well. Although has small kitchenette area, no cooking other than microwave. No silverware but couple plates and cups. There was leftover to go food in fridge but in fairness, I had a bottle of wine in there and didn’t see the to go container until about the third time I got in there. Restaurant on site and staff was great. I only had a drink so can’t comment on food. Set on beach side so easy to get in the sand. All drinks on patio and pool area must be bought from bar but prices were reasonable. Would not hesitate to stay here again as good value for money Bed was comfortable but pillows were not great. No ice machine but they sell ice for $3 a bag

Stayed here two nights, first off, the staff are excellent. Couple key points, the beach out front is packed with people all day long and many cart their way in from vehicles or across the street. It is not “private” in any way because there is a public access beach ramp in the parking lot that everyone seems to know about. The public restaurant/bar can be very crowded too. Food is good, but upper price range. The pool is full of sand from everyone washing off from the beach instead of using the shower out by the walkway. Saw kids flat covered in sand hopping in the pool to rinse off. Room is pretty small with damaged and dated furniture. Front living room, half wall, bed, half wall, bathroom, strange layout. There were absolutely zero utensils or plates in kitchen. Nothing to put food on for the tiny microwave. Tiny bathroom and toilet with very low water pressure, no room around bathroom sink. Tub had been converted to walk in shower years ago and needed a hard scrubbing, very low shower pressure. WiFi works but TV had constant buffering problems. DO NOT try to bring a boat trailer, tight parking is very limited. I would rate this place expensive for what it provides, it’s just old and needs a facelift.

The property is OK and the staff is really friendly, but there were mosquitoes in our room, and you can’t really go anywhere outside the resort without taking a taxi, which gets very expensive. The two restaurants on site are OK; the food is decent but pricey.

This is not our first time staying here and we love it. Pros: It's quiet and very peaceful at night. There's a beach access by it. There's beach & tent rentals at the access which is very convenient. The Cafe on site is also very convenient when you have a Baby. R The front desk staff are very nice. Downs: Our room 210 had a very hard king mattress but we stayed for 2 nights so it was okay but couldn't stay any longer as our backs were hurting. The parking is okay though visitors going to the Cafe take our spaces at times. Cafe doesn't give hotel guests priority.
