The family-oriented Schlitterbahn Beach Resort offers mid-range rooms and plenty of fun in the sun and water. The beachfront property on the quiet southern tip of South Padre Island has a sprawling indoor/outdoor waterpark with tons of features that stay open all year. Seafood restaurants, a swim-up bar, small fitness center, and free parking and Wi-Fi are additional highlights. The 221 guest rooms are spacious and well equipped with microwaves and mini-fridges. But, bathrooms are cramped, there are no balconies, and reviews of housekeeping and upkeep are mixed. This is also a popular resort for wedding and other social events, thanks to facilities for up to 700 people. Note that water park day passes are available to the public. For something slightly quieter, the nearby Pearl South Padre is also on the beach and has a huge outdoor pool and full-service spa for similar rates.
