What guests think

At Lighthouse Inn, travelers highlight clean, basic rooms and very friendly staff in a walkable, convenient South Padre location with good prices, while noting tradeoffs like limited parking and a small pool with mixed upkeep.

Several guests also mention well-lit grounds and a generally quiet, safe atmosphere. Common downsides include occasional pests, worn towels and blankets, small bathrooms with slippery tubs, inconsistent A/C or Wi‑Fi, and noise or construction near the property; the pool can be closed or need cleaning. There is no breakfast, though coffee is available, and plenty of dining is nearby. Expect a no‑frills, budget stay near the island’s main spots.

It was great! Very clean!! The front staff woman was the nicest person ever! So amiable and kind. Check in was easy. Room was very clean. Pool was great. We also found a place where we could watch sundown and put our chairs out; you could also fish and it was only a 2 min walk. So beautiful. Definitely returning

Memorial Day prices were ridiculous for this hotel. We booked 2 rooms, both seemed ok at first. One of the rooms had filthy towels, and the pillows on the bed had other people's hair which meant they did not change pillowcases. It is known for hotels only to do only a quick sweep in between guests, so at the sign of any dirtiness on the bed, rest assured it is one of those hotels. The other room wasn't as bad but it did also have dirty towels and there were mosquitoes all night long. Overall, the staff was friendly and the rooms were very modern, and the stay would've been great if it weren't for the cleanliness. I recommend asking for clean sheets and towels at the front desk if you plan to stay here.

Pros: I love the location of this hotel and the well lit parking lot. Pillows were great. :) Rooms are sound proof which is great with all the night life happening. Cons: TERRIBLE towels. The worst ive ever used. Please upgrade them. If anything needs upgrading this is it!! The bathroom wasnt cleaned very well. Toilet and shower needed a wipe down. Sink needed a cover over the drain, which was missing and smelt a little bad. :(

Excellent location. Room was clean and staff was very friendly. I had no issues with noisy people even though there was loud music coming from the place behind it, you couldn't here the music in the room The only thing I didn't like was it didn't have a coffee pot in the room. They had coffee at front desk, but it never is as fresh as having it in your room. I did not give less stars because of this as most places don't have a coffee maker in the rooms anymore. I definitely would stay here again.

The hotel itself was very good considering the low price we paid. Amenities were in great condition, no defects. The areas around the hotel were all at a walkable distance which was great because we didn’t have to use our car much. Only downside was the bedding was uncomfortable and scratchy, would recommend bringing your own blankets.

Nice place friendly staff only issue is the ac wasn’t the best room wouldn’t cool down at all not even at night. It’s stated the rooms are sound proof but not so much from the upstairs called and complained that people staying above us had kids running back and forth stomping around dragging the chair around until 12/1 in the morning for 2 days in row, not sure if they asked them to quite down or not but shortly after complaining the stomping seemed to get worst purposefully. Good atmosphere wouldn’t mind staying here again

You get what you pay for. We had very noisy upstairs neighbors that seemed like they were moving furniture around all night. We had a late check in and the front desk made it very difficult to check in because their “system” had a temporary hold on the Expedia reservation after I had called that morning to verify everything was good to go. I literally had to get our Expedia agent on the phone to walk the front desk person on how to except the funds from Expedia. It literally took him one hour to get us our room after we arrived at midnight tired from our 6 hour drive. The towels were gym towels. And they had no do not disturb signs so house keeping went into our room everyday without our permission. Overall the location is great. The inn is mid and I probably would not stay there again.
