“Jenna was very helpful from the reservation to checking in and checkout. We had a wonderful experience on a busy Memorial Day weekend but we felt as if we had plenty of privacy and seclusion from the island’s hustle and bustle. The hot tub was very hot and inviting! The pool was clean and refreshing with live music and entertainment from 3pm-2am! The Pina Coladas were delicious as well. They left a little thoughtful surprise to us in our room! Champagne and a love note! Very romantic experience and will definitely be back for more. Love the adults only aspect.“

“Clayton’s Beach Bar isn’t just a top-notch spot for drinks and good vibes—it’s also home to some of the best sandcastle action you’ll ever see! ?️? If you’re lucky enough to visit during Sandcastle Days, you’ll get to witness pro-level sand sculptors create mind-blowing masterpieces right on the beach. These aren’t your average sandcastles—they’re towering works of art that draw crowds from all over. ?✨

Along with the incredible beachside drinks and fun atmosphere, the combination of stunning ocean views and jaw-dropping sand sculptures makes Clayton’s a must-visit. Whether you're there for the live music, the sunsets, or to watch the pros work their magic in the sand, Clayton’s Beach Bar offers an unforgettable experience that perfectly captures the spirit of South Padre! ??

Parking: Plenty of parking out front.“

They don't have decaffeinated coffee. And 18% tip is charged in groups of 6 or more people. In general everything very good.“
