Hotels near Sisters Trading Company, South Padre Island

I had such a great trip here! My wife and I got married at the beach and we used this hotel for our wedding block. The staff was nice and helpful, rooms were exceptionally clean, and the breakfast was on point. It’s such a close walk to the beach, shops and food!

We have been to South Padre and stayed at many places, so this was not our first time by any means on the island. The staff were great, the pool was nice needs tile work and some updating yet very refreshing. We stayed 6 night and they upgraded us a bit because we did not like the first room. The room only has a small fridge not a full size like most condos do. The pool music selection was awesome yet they started it every day at 7am which is not too friendly to guests who would like to sleep in, I suppose if you were on the backend it may not matter but we want as best a view and by the pool if possible. The WIFI was horrible almost dial up speeds and they never got if fixed, luckily we don't need it very often on trips but my wife did have a small amount of work to do. The restaurant had good food, was totally under used though, very few in there. They also offered service on the beach. Overall its not a bad place at all, good location, nearby to a lot of places to eat and within walking distance of shops too.

Very good resort hotel, beautiful and convenient. The hotel is located on the south side of Nampa Island. Except for the RV campground in the southernmost park, there are no taller buildings. If it's not winter, the swimming pool would be nice. There is a boardwalk to the beach behind the hotel. The high-rise room facing south can see the starship base and launch tower. You can imagine how popular this room would be when there is a starship launching. At night, the lights of the Starship Base Assembly Factory and the strobe lights on the launch pad can also be seen on the balcony. This is a great housing option for starship enthusiasts.

This resort refused to honor my confirmed and paid for reservation that I booked in June of 2021 booked for May 2022 because the resort was purchased by Holiday Inn (one would think all confirmed reservations would have been brought up in their due deligence prior to purchase). I was not contacted until one week prior to our trip that they were canceling my reservation even though the lady told me they did honor previous reservations for other guests. Travel accommodations were already made and time requested off so here we are left to scramble to find somewhere last minute to stay. The person that contacted me made no offer of helping book a room with the Holiday Inn booking system and was overall very unhelpful. Extremely disappointing that such a large company would act with so little regard for paying guests.

This is going to be straight to cut. I took off from office to travel to South Padre and being an IHG Member , paid through my precious points to be at ”The Resort”. Lobby was effective and felt that I am going to be at a great place. I had forgone my salary for the vacation. This is just to say that this is the amount of effort , money and time I spent for this holiday. Check-in was smooth and then the ordeal started. The front office manager told us that this property is not an IHG property and still conversion. The room assigned was super dirty , doors would not work , had an awful smell and it was worst than a motel. To top it , I was supposed to pay the resort fees. I just told them that I was not interested and for the next 4 hours in the property, I waited , called IGH helpline to be kept on wait. Nothing happened. Thirsty and distraught , the person on front office offered help in finding me another room and did whatever best he could. On my return , I called IHG again and was given 500 points to my account and no resolution. I need my points back which I spent for this stupid holiday. IHG - You really spoilt my vacation to the extent possible. Lastly , people at the property are excellent , helpful but they cannot change the awful and nasty property. Do not , for god sake , penalize people like this. If you intend to really respond , do tell me an email ID where I can send reservation details - give me my points back. At the same time , reasonably saying - I lost my hours , gas , effort and time . Equals out I have called your lines multiple times but unable to get someone - I am your customer and tired , I wrote on TripAdvisor.

Great experience. Customer Service excellent. Eddie, Liz, Jerry to name of few made you feel welcomed and comfortable. Eddie is the b est. Sports fan and friendly. I read a review that someone took issue with Eddie wearing a NFL Team Jersey during Super Bowl. That helped create a festive environment, as many in attendance work their team fav colors. The crowd was approximately 80/20 or 70/30 for the KC Chiefs. The one-off review is just that....off base & undeserved. Let Eddie keep dong what he is doing....just having fun, enjoying his job, and serving the people. Entire Staff & Mgt is superb.
