I went and stayed the week before memorial day. It was great. This hotel is nice because it only allows guests older than 25 and is right on the ocean. The Cafe is pretty good too. I recommend the Turbo Pina Colada and Sashimi Tuna. :) more

The Palms was ideally located on the beach, clean, cheap but very small. My daughter is 14 months old and still sleeping in a pack n play. There is not much room to set up the pack n play in the room. When we did have the pack n play set up, walking room inside the room was minimal. The... more

I couldn't be happier with our stay here. The Palms is ideally located at about the center of the town, right on the beach - Gulf side. Service was good and the staff was pleasant. The queen-sized suite was spacious with bedroom area and sitting/kitchen area separated. Price was very fair. The resort's Cafe on the Beach had the best... more

This is a great little place to stay! It's mere steps away from the beach, they have a nice pool with a great cafe and bar facing the beach. The rooms are a good size, the beds are comfy, and the whole place has a relaxed, laid-back vibe. Perfect for a beach getaway! They have cable and wireless internet, too,... more

Good: Great location, clean room, nice TV setup. Not so good: Beds will hurt your back, A/C is loud with questionable effectiveness, Cafe is somewhat overpriced. more

I stayed here last year with my girls and we loved it. This year my husband asked me what I wanted for my birthday and this is where I wanted to go. It's the perfect little hotel, right on the beach, convenient shower to wash the sand off, restaurant, pool, staff has always been friendly. The rooms are nice, clean,... more

I have come to the Palms Resort for 3 years in a row, this last trip made my 4th year. I called and spoke to the manager when I made my reservation. I told her there would be 2 adults, and 2 children. About a week before we arrived I had to call and change my date of arrival, all... more

My boyfriend and I stayed 3 nights at The Palms on South Padre Island. It is much like a "50s" resort - rooms open to the outside, good cafe, relaxed people, small but nice pool, relatively few rooms, beach-front, and quiet. The rooms are simple, but clean and beach-style, with refrigerator and microwave. Walk 3 minutes to the beach. Great... more

This was my first time ever to South Padre island, so this review cannot be separated by my delight at the discovery of a new, wonderful place. The beach is beautiful, the water WARM and clear and clean. The small dunes and grasses reminded me of Cape Cod decades ago. We were at SPI at a quiet, peacefultime of year.... more
