THE LOCATION — WALK TO EVERYTHING



Many guests choose Retreat on Pike simply because of where it sits on the island.



The beach access is located about 100 steps east at the end of the street, making beach mornings and sunset walks incredibly easy.

Despite being close to the island’s activity areas, the building itself remains a quiet small complex, making it a comfortable place to relax after a day exploring.



THE SPACE

This 2nd-floor condo features a practical and comfortable layout designed for families.



When you walk inside, the living room opens directly to the kitchen and adjacent private patio, creating a simple flow that works well for gathering after the beach.



While many South Padre condos in this price range can feel dated, this one is tastefully decorated, clean, and well maintained.



After a long day in the sun, relax with a movie night on the Smart TV or pull out one of the board games provided.



Just outside the patio, the community pool offers another great way to wind down or let the kids burn off their remaining energy.
