Plenty of beds, everything you need for both in the home and going to beach. Having beach chairs and umbrellas was great! Little things like mosquito spray, sunscreen, beach toys, plenty of beach towels, all pleasant surprises.
There was even WD-40 in the closet which was used to lubricate the squeaky door! Kitchen fully stocked with pots, pans, dishes, and all the kitchen tools needed. Could use some Tupperware containers with lids.
The cleaning service needs some training as they don't pay attention to detail, but not "dirty". Bar glasses on open shelf are really dusty and dirty, there were dishes put away that were put up dirty, as in used, and not washed. Upstairs bathroom constantly smells like a sewer, think the pipes need looked at. The mattresses need to be replaced. Springs poke you and minimal support. All three downstairs bedrooms were horrible. No one's back is feeling good right now. Not sure on upstairs as the kids slept there and they didn't complain. Replace with tempurpedic and advertise that they are tempurpedic, you will have people rent for that reason alone! Internet is non existent. No matter the time of day or night. So bad that you cannot even watch TV. Had to use hotspot on the phone to watch one TV. Let the front desk know and they said there was nothing wrong with it. Negatives only given so they can be improved. Overall it was a great stay and would rent again (if beds replaced!). Thank you!

Great for extended families or large groups. We had 12 people in our group that ranged from 81-12 years of age. Place is on the beach with a private entrance to the beach, around the corner from the strip, restaurants, grocery store, convenience stores, etc. Also has a nice pool, grills for cooking out, exercise equipment, private parking lot. The place had all we needed, towels, appliances, dishes, beach umbrellas, boogie board, etc. Definitely a great place to stay.

This space was amazing! My cousins and I had a "Cousins Retreat" to reconnect, and this space allowed us to do that comfortably. Lots of space, gorgeous views and right on the beach! We had a truly wonderful time!

It was a nice place to stay. Only complaint is with the added tax, cleaning fees, host fees at the end of booking It was overpriced. The upstairs loft is for shorter people. Pictures made it look bigger than it was.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Penthouse Dahktari! This was our first visit to South Padre Island & The Aquarius’ complex central, beachfront location made for quick & easy access to everything on the Island & in Port Isabel.
The building is old, but extremely well maintained & lovingly cared for. Penthouse Dahktari is eclecticly decorated in a combination of modern functional & Tex Mex kitsch that played very well over our 3-week stay in the Condo with family. The views to the East, South & West are simply spectacular!
Penthouse Dahktari is well stocked with condo, kitchen & beach amenities. Everything is in very good to excellent condition. Furniture & beds are solidly built & comfortable.
We highly recommend Penthouse Dahktari for short or long vacation rentals!

This property was stunning! So much space , and everything was newly renovated. We loved the three balconies, and the views were spectacular. We were able to cook for our large family (12 of us) with enough cookware , plates , utensils , etc…. Including a beautiful park area with 3 grills. Every bedroom had a TV with access to streaming channels. Rent this condo ! We loved it

We loved this 10th floor Penthouse. Everything was perfect. 3 bedrooms plus a kids' loft. 3 bathrooms , full size washer and dryer. Beautiful kitchen with granite countertop with bar stools, huge dining table that's big enough to seat a large group. The decks with chairs makes it so easy to watch the sun come up over the gulf or to see the large ships and fishing boats. Walkdown to the beach with beach chairs, and umbrellas, toys, for the kids to dig in the sand and a cooler with wheels for your refreshments. This PENTHOUSE HAS EVERYTHING.

Perfect place for families with kids, beautiful views! Excellent hosts as well!

This place was more than we expected, it has everything; close to great beach access, close to town, pool that is shaded a large part of the day (great for kids). The condominium is larger than it looks, easily fit large families. It is so welcoming you feel like you have walked into someone's home. Mike & Bill are the perfect hosts. We heard from them 10 min after booking and got a response anytime within minutes. We are already looking forward to our next stay!

We had a great trip! The beach was close and the pool was great. This trip, the kids enjoyed the ping pong table and spent a lot time playing in the game room and pool.
Thank you for a fabulous time!

We enjoyed staying at this property so much! The view was incredible from the balcony, and we spent some time every day on the beach and in the heated pool. The kids loved every minute. It was the perfect away! Interactions with the condo staff were very positive and the owners were super helpful and available if we needed anything at all. The property was clean, updated, beautiful. They had everything you might want and need on sight. It was probably my favorite VRBO stay.
