This was our first trip taking our kids, ages 11 and 14, to a Texas beach. After reviewing several properties online, we decided on Suntide #1103 at Cinnamon Shores, and it did not disappoint. The condo is well-furnished, decorated in calm blues and yellows, with all the things you could possibly need on a vacation to the beach. The air conditioning was GREAT and, except for some small feet upstairs which we could hear running around during the day, it was quiet. The location is on ground floor, so no riding elevators for us, which was nice. Parking was ample for both our car and a golf cart which we rented in town. The condo was perfect for our family, with a king bed for my husband (who is very tall) and me, and twin beds for the kids, with everyone having their own bathroom. The kitchen was great to have; we even grilled out a couple of nights. The pools at Cinnamon Shorts are fabulous, and we enjoyed live music one night, which was really relaxing. We rented a movie one night, and we rented fishing poles and tackle boxes another evening, snagging a Blue Gill and a turtle (!) in the pond, which we promptly returned to their natural habitats. The location on the beach was also wonderful, not too crowded, but we did have to get our own umbrella and chairs set up by 10 am for a good spot. I would probably recommend just renting chairs and an umbrella next time, so we don't have to lug them to the beach, but it is doable. Also, pop-up tents were plentiful, and provide a lot of shade if you need more space. We grocery shopped at the local Family Center IGA in town, but honestly, the HEB Plus in Padre takes about the same amount of time, with a much bigger selection of food and other items, we will shop there next time. We had a terrific time at Cinnamon Shores and highly recommend Suntide for a family of 4. Loved it! I would recommend Suntide #1103
