SOUTH PADRE ISLAND HOTEL TIPS

Tip 1 – Best advice we can give you: Beware of non-refundable hotel reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them.

Tip 2 – Read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation.

Tip 3 – When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Print it and take it with you, and don't delete the original email until you have completed your stay and know you have been billed correctly.

Tip 4 – The earlier in the day you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
