| We just had a wonderful week's stay at Andy's condo and are already planning the next visit. We had a great time! Everything we needed was readily available. They even have beach toys and kites for the kids to play with while on the beach. We had a couple of minor issues, but they were quickly resolved by Andy. My family and I will definitely be back again! Thanks Andy!!! |

| We can say nothing but "awesome" for our stay at Andy's condo. It is beautiful and the views are gorgeous. We liked how you can see the ocean from one bedroom and the bay from the other. We took our granddaughter on her first ocean vacation to this condo. The condo is decorated beautifully, and everything is so convenient. The two pools are wonderful as is the general location. You couldn't ask for a better place to vacation on South Padre Island. Andy is great to rent from. |

| We were very happy to see that the condo was every bit what we were expecting. Sometimes you don't get what you expect. Andy has done a great job of making this condo comfortable like home. We were also impressed with how well maintained the building and grounds are. This is really a beautiful place for a vacation. We will be contacting Andy again. |

This condo is beautifully decorated inside and has the best views of the gulf sunrises and awesome sunset views on the bay side. LOVED IT!! It was very relaxing with everything and anything you could possibly need. Andy does think of everything to make everyone feel at home.away. from home!!
Our family enjoyed every day we spent there and we were sad to leave but take with us some wonderful memories that our kids will remember always.

My wife and I just returned from a few days at the Summit condo and it was even better than it was last fall when we also spent a few days. Andy has made several worthwhile improvements including adding more large screen televisions than anyone should use while on vacation at this beautiful location. Last fall we were run out a day early by the possibility of hurricane Ike hitting South Padre. Andy was just super about the whole thing and gave us a one day credit which we cashed in on this visit.
If you want to have a very comfortable and quiet stay at the beach, and you want to deal with a terrific owner, you can't go wrong with this place! |

| As folks who often vacation in the spaces of others, we'd rate Andy's Summit condo as one of the very best deals we've encountered from the Pacific to the Atlantic. Clean, modern, quiet, well-equipped, spectacular views, in the heart of SPI, and wide sprawling sandy beaches of world class quality every where you look. Hard to beat the two views from the 7th floor either. Sunrises over the Gulf and sunsets over Port Isabel. Found the staff friendly and attentive, especially Pablo. Will be recommending this vacation adventure to anyone who'll listen. Thanks, Andy and Cynthia. Are we really the 75th? (smile) |

| We just came back from Texas where we spent 2 glorious weeks with our 2 boys ages 9 and 13 in the Summit Condo. We all loved it. The boys loved the beach and the two pools. The one pool was heated and the other was more like a true Canadian pool a little cooler... on the warmer days it was great!! The condo has everything you need and is extremely well maintained. The island was also very welcoming. We also found a beautiful Baptist Church that made us feel extremly welcome on Sunday morning. We will definitely be going back. It is really worth the drive to South Padre. |

We definitely took advantage of the beach umbrella and chairs that Andy has in the condo. The condo has all the technology we needed with a television in every room and dvd players, wifi available. The grounds and pool were immaculate. We especially liked the heated pool We will definitely return soon! Thanks Andy! |

We spent hours perusing destination locations and accommodations on the VRBO web site to plan our family's spring break. By looking at the photo's and reading the comments on Andy's listing, we knew that we wanted to go to South Padre and stay at Summit #703. It is truly everything all the other guests have described.
We took our three teens who couldn't stop raving about how much they loved the condo and the location. Since older teens don't like to do everything with Mom and Dad, the condo, its amenities and location really provided diverse and fun activities with parents' peace of mind. The kids could be on the beach or at either of the two pools and we could see them from one of our two balconies; there were shops and teen-friendly eating establishments right by the condo that they could walk to; they loved having internet access so they could keep in touch with their friends; and with a large nice t.v. in their room, (besides the living room and master bedroom) there was no griping about who wanted to watch what. The gated property and friendly and professional security and grounds staff made us feel very secure. Andy and Cynthia were wonderfully gracious and accommodating.
We loved our stay and will definitely come again.

| My husband & I just returned from a 2 week holiday to South Padre Island. One reason we chose to stay at Andy's condo were the positive reviews we read beforehand as well as the pictures on his website. We would like to add that everything we read is true, the condo is lovely, amenities couldn't be better, the view is spectacular, his assistance was invaluable and always gracious, and the sound of the surf was very soothing. Anything and everything you could possibly want or need for your stay are here including beach chairs, umbrella, towels, & the kitchen is well stocked with everything you'd have in your own home including waffle iron, and margarita mixer (unfortunately we don't drink tequila so didn't get to use it!). The condo is in a wonderful location on the island and our daily walks down the beach were a pleasure every day. |

This condo is perfect!! We had 8 people staying there for a bachlorette party weekend and never felt cramped or uncomfortable. The condo provided all the amenities we needed - the laundry room is a HUGE plus!! They even provided beach umbrella, boogie boards and a cooler for those beach days. The view is perfect
Now for where to go...
The Dolphin Watch/Sunset with Fireworks was pretty neat, but we went with the most boring boat ever!! No music playing and I think our driver must have been intoxicated. There were better boat trips out there. We used the company at the corner of the bridge on the Port Isabel side. They also don't refund tickets - so be sure everyone will go when you buy.
Now we visited many of the restaurants, bars and shopping. If you don't go to the dolphin watch on Friday night, you can watch the fireworks from Louies (happening place) or the other 2 bars next to Louies. We enjoyed Tom & Jerry's - great, fun bartenders. Jakes was very low-key, but had awesome top-shelf margaritas and good food. Gonzalez's was great for shopping and they have a mexican restaurant upstairs. The owner was very pleasant and gave me some really great deals. I came home with boxes not bags of items. Overall our stay was incredible!! I recommend this rental property - most for your money!!! |

We recently returned from a 5 day stay at Andy's Summit condo. It was the nicest condo rental experience that we have ever had! First of all, the unit itself is beautiful, kept in excellent condition, and has some really nice features like the wonderful kitchen and its own laundry room. The master bedroom has a very comfortable King bed, where we fell asleep each night to the sound of the ocean. The second bedroom has two big beds and a second bath, so our kids had their own private domain. The complex is very well maintained, has great facilities, and pretty landscaping.
But one of the most outstanding features about staying at this place is how pleasant and professional Andy is. All of our questions and transaction details were promptly dealt with, and he truly does care about your experience. Our thanks to Andy, and we can't wait to return! |

We stayed at the Summit condo #703 for a week in May. We had an absolutely wonderful stay. The condo is decorated very nicely and all the furniture was very nice and comfortable. And of course the balcony had incredible views of the ocean. We have two little boys, ages 3 & 1, so we ate at the condo a lot! The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed and more. The beds were dreamy. Even my boys who never sleep through the night actually slept through 6 entire nights. Now that's a vacation! It was really nice having a king in the master and 2 queens in the 2nd bedroom. That is hard to find in a condo. It was also super convenient having a washer and dryer in the condo.
Andy also provided beach toys, boogie boards, beach chairs and a beach umbrella for us. It was so nice to be able to just walk to the beach with our two little ones. The pool was perfect, heated to just the right temperature.
We will definitely stay here again on our next trip to South Padre Island. Just the great customer service from Andy makes it well worth it. Thanks Andy! |

| My family just returned from a week long stay on South Padre Island, where we stayed in Andy's condo at the Summit. Andy has thought of everything to make his condo a home away from home. All you need is your personal things and groceries. It was wonderful. The condo was beautiful, along with the view of the Gulf from the balcony,which is off of the living area. There is also a beautiful view of the bay from the front entrance. The pool and hot tube was wonderful. You are close to shopping and just a few steps from the beach. Most of the shops and resturants are within walking distance of the condo. Andy has decorated the condo to really give you the feeling of being at the beach. Everything was just perfect. We would not think of staying anywhere else when we return to South Padre Island. Andy is a great person to work with. Why would you want to stay in a motel when you can stay in a beautiful condo, right on the Gulf with a beautiful view! Thanks Andy for sharing your condo with us! |

All we can say is WOW!! The Summit condo (#703) that our family stayed in over spring break (March 22-29, 08) was incredible! The condo was very clean and had everything we needed and than some. Andy and Cynthia were the best. Any questions or problems that came up were dealt with immediately. Andy gave us great information about South Padre Island before our trip, we were able to plan day trips and feel comfortable about where we were going from day one.

This was our first stay in Texas and I just want to comment on how wonderful the condo was. It is extremely well taken care of and so clean! The grounds are lovely and the view is breathtaking. Being that the property is very private and gated brings great piece of mind. Andy was so helpful in not only helping us plan our trip but making sure we arrived safely and that we had everything we needed. I would definitely recommend this condo as a relaxing and beautiful vacation spot! We sure enjoyed our vacation there and look forward to staying there again...soon! |

the view from both balconies on the 7th floor was beautiful. Andy even provided us a list of activities and attractions in the area. The weather was warm and beautiful for early November. Thank you Andy for the wonderful accommodation ! We are already considering to go back soon |

It doesn't get any better than that! The furnishings are stunning; however, the beds are what matters most...they match any of those at the high-end hotels.

Our month at your condo passed much too quickly, but what a beautiful month it was! Everybody had a wonderful time. We felt it was the most relaxing vacation we have had. It truly is a little piece of heaven you have there.
The view was great. We enjoyed all of the amenities inside the condo and in the complex. Thank you for checking frequently to see if we needed anything else. We can’t think of anything else to make our vacation more relaxing. You have thought of everything.
After reading all the reviews, our expectations were very high and I am pleased to say they were all met or exceeded. Talking with everyone after returning home the conversation always became "are we doing it again next year?" So I am fairly certain that you will be seeing us again next year.
Again, thank you for making this beautiful condo available. We all had a great time and we will see you soon.

| This condo is a premier place to stay at South Padre Island. It has so many extras i.e. televisions in each bedroom, lots of storage in the closets and dressers, well outfitted kitchen, etc. We so enjoyed spending the month of January there even though the weather wasn't the best this year. If one has to be couped up during inclement weather, this is the condo to be couped up in. It is very clean and lots of time and energy has been spent on upgrades and the little niceties in the decor made it a great home away from home. The grounds of the facility are very impressive and the maintenance crew deserves great kudos for the hard work they put in daily on the landscaping and pools. The Summit is definitely one of the best maintained properties on the Island. We were very pleased with our stay and it's at the top of our list for future rentals. |

The view is beautiful especially to someone from Wisconsin. I ran or walked every day on the beach. Andy sent an information package which was very helpful. Would definately rent from him again. |

My family has been vacationing on the South Padre Island for the past 8 years and have never had such a wonderful vacation experience as this past vacation. The condominium is conveniently located and the accomodations exceeded our expectations. The special attention to details made us feel at home. The views, Sunrise and sunsets from the condo were hard to leave behind. This one is by far the best. Owner made sure that we were extremely satisfied. We look forward to coming back next year and every year! Thanks again.

| This condo was one of the best we've ever stayed in. We spent Thanksgiving 2006 and we loved every minute of it. The kitchen was so well stocked we were able to cook a great Thanksgiving feast with all the trimmings! The view from the balcony was spectacular. And everyone slept great because the mattresses were great quality! All the little details helped make our stay perfect! Wouldn't change a thing! Thanks again! |

We had a delighful 4 nights at this 2 bedroom
condo in October 2006. It was a quiet season so we
rested, enjoyed the views from the balcony and
walked the clean expansive beach. The location is
central to many restaurants and shops. The owner
is attentive and cares about his property and
making his guests happy. I would recommend it to
anyone looking for an easy getaway from anywhere
in Texas. |

| This is a fantastic place to stay and we felt right at home. Super clean and close to EVERYTHING. In my opinion, this is the best deal on the beach for a place to stay and we'll definitely book the condo again. I close my eyes and still remember fantastic view from the balcony. The owner has thought of all the details to make this very special. The beds were very comfortable. Our kids enjoyed their own DVD players in their room. We could not believe how well stocked the kitchen was. This was our first trip to the island and the owner guided us very well to make the most out of our stay. We could not have done so many activities without the information provided to us by the owner. THANK YOU for making such a wonderful place available to us. |

Our week at the Summit Condo was really great. We were just about the only ones there and we really appreciated the quiet, relaxing time that we had. The balcony overlooking the Gulf makes morning time wonderful and the evening time even better as you look at the moon over the water. The condo was extremely clean and everything you needed in the kitchen was provided. We look forward to a future stay!

| We had a great time at this apartment in the Summit. The view of the ocean from the balcony is gorgeous. My kids love having their own TV with DVD player in each room. Beds are really comfortable and the kitchen is superbly equiped. The building was very well maintained and never crowded so most of the time we had the two pools for ourselves. The covered parking lot kept our vehicle protected from the sun and sandy wind from the island. Overall it was a memorable experience. We will come back in the future. Alan |

| We had a great time at the Summit. The condo was very nice and the beds were so comfortable. The location was very convenient and close to the beach. It was never crowded and we had the pool to ourselves most of the time. We liked that the pool in the back was shaded most of the day so our kids could still enjoy the water without being in the sun for hours. If you prefer the sun, the pool up front always had sun. The view from the balcony was wonderful and we spent a lot of time out there. We also liked the shade that darkened the Master bedroom so the morning sun didn't wake us up too early. Key pick-up and drop off was easy. Great place!! We'll definitely be back. |

| What a delight! We vacationed here in August and were extremely comfortable. The condo is spacious and very tastefully decorated, the complex and grounds are very well kept, and there is an awesome view of the gulf and the bay. There is great access to the beach and two very nice pools. Thank you for providing a wonderful relaxing setting for a tremendous family vacation. |

| We spent a week at the condo in late July and had a great time. The condo is spacious and comfortable and the view is great. We loved that the complex was smaller and had easy access to the pools and beach. Andy was very helpful and accomodating - more than any other owner I've dealt with in the past. We'll definitely be back! |

| Your condo was a wonderful surprise. The view from the balcony took our breath away. From the peaceful morning sitting on the balcony to the stroll on the beach in the evening, everything was perfect. There were 6 adults and 2 children, we were very comfortable. The beds were great,nice and firm, and the furniture was very nice. Thank you for a wonderful experience and making sure we were comfortable. Everything we needed was right at our fingertips. We can't wait to come back and stay longer this time. |

| Your condo is wonderful! The view of the ocean was Gorgeous from large balcony, living room and master bedroom. There was plenty of room for our family and some friends over. Each room was clean and tastefully decorated. Kitchen was well appointed with everything you would need to cook and serve a nice dinner for 6. The condo is just as lovely, and more so than advertised, so well equipped even down to the tiniest detail. There were even beach chairs and cooler for us to use. It showed owner’s care. Thanks for opening up your home, we felt right at home. We are the beach people and we have found our vacation home on the island. We promise to come back every year and stay here again. ... |

We have been going to South Padre every year for last 6 years. This year we decided to stay at this condo since it looked so beautiful and we are so Happy about our decision. The complex is best kept secret on the island. The complex is so well maintained. When we visited, we were only visitor in the complex but there were 4 maintenance men working on landscape, pool and around the complex every single day, which gave us an overview of how well managed complex this was. The pool was clean, water was right temperature and landscape was so well manicured. There were even security guards on-site.
The condo is even superior. It was nice and very clean. Me and my friends loved the rattan furniture. There was plenty of room for 8 of us. Everything in the condo was new. Owners have paid attention to every little details. The kitchen was better equipped than my home kitchen. There were beach chairs in the condo and even roller cooler to take to the beach. The decor was very upscale and we could feel the luxury from the moment we entered the condo. Mattresses were very comfortable.
There is truly million dollar view from the condo and balcony. The view was worth every penny we spent.
The owner was extremely friendly, honest and was very easy to work with.
We would be going to this condo every year and I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the island. |

| We stayed in this Summit Condo for 2 weeks in January 2006 and loved it! The owner was easy to deal with and had everything we could want on hand here to make our stay complete...Down to a waffel maker! The view was great (the morning sunrise over the gulf front balcony especially so!) and the heated pool was wonderful as the gulf was a bit cool this time of year! There was new furnature and a fresh coat of paint, and very clean! As an added bonus the beds were SUPER COMFY! It is those personal touches that make this a great condo...we plan to return again! crissy |

| We stayed at this place during Summer. It was a great experience. The condo offers great view. The private beach access and swimming pool on the beach is so convenient. Pictures do not do justice to the place. The place was significantly better than what we saw online. Extremely clean. Owner has taken car of every single small comfort one might need while being on vacation. Owner went an extra mile for everything we needed. He even called us during our stay to find out if everything was fine. We go to island every year and so far this was the best condo we have stayed at. We will continue to stay at this place every time. |
