About this apartment rental
Beachfront 2BR 11th Floor Views, Saida Royale SPI
THE SPACE
The layout is exactly what a family or group of friends needs: living room and kitchen in the center, master to the left, second bedroom to the right, main patio straight ahead overlooking the pool, tennis courts, and the Gulf beyond. Having both bedrooms flanking the common area means two families or two groups can share the space with real privacy — it's a floor plan that holds up under the pressure of a big trip.
The kitchen has older black granite countertops — the appliances all work perfectly and the kitchen is fully equipped for home cooking if you want to save money and skip the restaurant run every meal. The eat-in breakfast counter practically begs for a morning taco bar.
There's a washer and dryer off the kitchen as well, a genuine convenience on any stay. A flat screen Smart TV in the living room handles movie nights as well as in each bedroom and the spacious living room is perfect for a family board game night after a long afternoon at the beach or pools
A quick note on the unit: Royale numbers its floors with a 9 prefix, so Unit 9115 is genuinely on the 11th floor with full elevator access. This is in the Royale Beach & Tennis Club — the 5th tower of Saida, originally all timeshares and now individually owned. The grounds are expansive, high-fenced with 24/7 security, and feel more like a resort than a condo complex. Saida has five towers total, which means plenty of other families and plenty of room for kids to find each other.
One detail worth knowing: Beach Kissed Rentals operates right in front of Saida — walk out, find two empty chairs with an umbrella, and they'll come over to charge you the $45 cash for the day. No hauling gear required & no pre arranged reservations required. The beach itself is open-container friendly (no glass), and BBQ on the beach is allowed. Note that Royale does not permit grills on the property nor patios itself.
Starter supplies provided included fresh, crisp & clean linens, bath towels, face and hand towels, soaps, shampoos, dishwasher pods, trash bags, coffee, filters, creamer, and sweetener — starter amounts only, not restocked during your stay. Beach towels are not provided; bring your own. If you plan to use the pull-out sofa or the airbed, bring bedding for those surfaces — we supply the queen airbed and pump but not the sheets and blankets for it.
FIVE REASONS TO BOOK:
11th floor sweeping ocean view — two private patios and a super high floor that is tough to beat
3 pools (1 heated, 1 Olympic-sized), 3 Texas-sized heated hot tubs, BYOB coolers welcome at the beachfront pools (no glass)
King in the master, 2 queens in the second room, sofa bed and queen airbed in the living room. Up to 8 guests allowed
Dogs welcome — up to 2 at $75 each, one of the better rates you'll find on the island
Walk to 10+ restaurants including Yummies (the island's #1 breakfast spot) and Kohnami Sushi right down the street plus Johnny Rockets, Russo’s Italian & more
SLEEPING (Up to 8 Guests)
Master bedroom: King bed, en suite full bathroom, flat screen TV, desk with ocean view — great for knocking out a little work with a view that makes it a tad harder to close the laptop when the time comes.
Second bedroom: two queen beds, full bathroom, flat screen Smart TV. Living room: full-size pull-out sofa bed — bring your own bedding for it — and a queen-size airbed with pump provided, also bring your own bedding. The 8-guest maximum includes infants and children.
PARKING
One off-street secure free parking spaces are included at no charge — free, unlike hotels on the island that charge per car. This unit comes with one space and there is no additional guest parking at the complex, so plan to arrive in two vehicles max. For a 2nd vehicle, free street parking is available on Gulf Blvd (a city-owned street), and the Post Office and Intermodal Transit Center are nearby backup options.
DOGS
Up to two dogs are welcome at $75 per dog — one of the better rates on South Padre Island. Dogs may not be on furniture, left alone to bark, or brought into pool areas.
SPRING BREAK
During spring break and Holy Week — roughly the month of March — the Saida Royale HOA charges a $25 per person wristband fee for guests ages 10 to 33. This is an HOA requirement, not ours. We pre-collect it after booking for your convenience and the wristbands will be waiting in the condo when you arrive. Outside of spring break and Holy Week, there are no wristbands
NEIGHBORHOOD
The south end of South Padre Island is where this unit sits — which matters more than it sounds. Crossing the causeway puts you here first, before the crowds concentrate further north, and the difference in traffic on a busy weekend is very real.
Right in the walkable area is some of the best eating on the island. Yummies takes the top spot on both Yelp and TripAdvisor for breakfast on South Padre — the line out front is there for a reason, and they also run a full-service coffee bar for when you need a proper start to the morning. Kohnami Japanese & Sushi is a genuine do-not-miss. Russo's Italian covers affordable, solid pizza alongside gluten-free and wine options.
Gabriella's is the upscale Italian dinner when the group wants a real night out. Johnny Rockets and Tropical Smoothie Café take care of the quick, casual meals. Calacas Taco Bar runs late for the nights when nobody can agree on a bedtime.
Within 7 city blocks there are more than 15 restaurants in total — a rare stretch of South Padre that genuinely earns the word "walkable."
Please note we have multiple units at Saida and can rent you more than one. Inquire — we would love to help you out! We actually can assist groups of up to 250 or more
High-speed WiFi is included throughout the condo; please note that Spectrum service can be spotty at times, so come prepared with a hotspot on your phone if you have must-do work as it can go down.
DISCOUNTS — JUST ASK
Reduced rates for off-season stays (September 15 – December 15), veterans and active military, and current Texas tackle football coaches (our sons play for Lake Travis in Austin — Go Cavs!). Send a message and ask.
POLICIES
Primary guest must be 23 or older. Guests under 23 may be considered with prior approval before booking and a substantial additional refundable damage deposit — reach out before you book. A signed digital rental agreement and valid photo ID are required before check-in.
You must read and agree to all house rules prior to booking — we are happy to answer any questions before you arrive. Strict cancellation policy applies. No smoking, no parties, no loud music at any time. The property is security patrolled at night.
SELF CHECK-IN & MANAGEMENT
Professionally managed by South Padre Trips — the #1 reviewed vacation rental company on South Padre Island, with 24/7 phone support. Office at 2600 Padre Blvd, open 7 days a week. Door codes are sent by text by 3 PM on your arrival day.
