From the reservations, check in to check out we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We had ocean side camping with a fantastic patio. Lots of activities over the weekend and a great pool and easy access to town via bike trails throughout the week. SpaceX is right across the bay from us. My only suggestion , as they pick up your trash from your campsite, is to have set times for trash pickup. Birds.

We’ve been visiting SPI and staying at the KOA for nearly 10 years and it has evolved over the years! There have been so many awesome updates! While we were sad when Pier 19 burnt down, we are impressed with the new campsites. Upon arrival, there was a hiccup with the location of our campsite which was quickly remedied and after that, our stay was perfect! All of the employees rock!!

Thank you so much for continuing to choose us! We are thrilled that you like our new updates. SPI KOA is very lucky to have such fabulous campers and amazing team members. We can't wait to welcome you back again soon. Safe travels.

The RV lot that we rented was very spacious and near the water. It was quiet and all the facility was nearby. Trash pickup is just a simple matter of leaving it at the lot's edge and some staff will come by to pick it up. The same goes for propane bottle refill.

The best ADA site & facilities. Sewer smell & humidity a bit overwhelming a couple nights but that goes with island life. Property in amazing condition. Lots of friendly staff & amenities with good office hours & store offerings. Only suggestion is make it gated or add security. Some guy was cruising his truck with music blaring every hour the night we had to leave at 5am for a 7 hour drive !!!

It was our first visit to the South Padre Island KOA. We enjoyed our stay immensely; we won't stay anywhere else. I just text some friends of ours about your campground, and suggested that they should get a KOA login if they don't have one and stay at your KOA when they go to he island. Thank for the amenities and the cleanliness.

Always wonderful and our preferred RV stay place. This is a beautiful KOA and it surpasses any RV park that we've ever stayed at. Every time we come to South Padre we stay here because it's just so beautiful, everybody is so wonderful. Front desk and crew are the most fantastic people!

Park and staff are great, however I left there with an infestation of tiny ants in my motor home. When doing some work on my rig, I noticed them crawling around in the gravel/rocks. Later that day, I became aware they were inside my rig everywhere!! It seems the park could spray for the insects! I can't be the only one that has had this problem. For this reason, I could not recommend this KOA

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your feedback! We are happy you enjoyed the park and team. We apologize for the ant invasion. While we cannot keep every bug out of nature, we’re always glad to spray if notified during your stay. We will keep doing our best to make sure nature stays outside where it belongs.

Awesome!

Very enjoyable stay. Our site was a bit tight to get into but it was a pleasant site once parked. We will probably choose a site on the peninsula next time. The campground was close to many activities. Staff was very friendly and helpful. It would be nice to have a bigger dog park. Our dog loves to get out and run and this dog park was not large enough for her.

The improvements completed since January 2025 are exceptional. The new waterfront sites are breathtaking. Also the Recreation building with Activity room, Laundry, Fitness room, and bathrooms/showers are wonderful. October Halloween activities for families was fun to watch. What can we say, we loved it all. Many thanks to the staff

I came to the South Padre Island KOA to watch the rocket launch. The view was amazing! I brought a large telescope to view the stars at night from 3:00am to 6:00am. The lights from the second floor of one of their buildings interfered with my view. I asked the staff if they could turn off the lights and they did the next night. Viewing conditions improved greatly. Kudos to the amazing staff!!!

Loved our three night stay. Great location, clean, quiet, and our dog loved his walks around the grounds. Close access to the park and beach.

I gave KOA SPI a 5 star rating, but there are a couple things I think need to be improved upon. We had spot 96 which was ok, but I really was uncomfortable hooking up the water/ sewer and electric. The connections were literally at our neighbors front door. Yuk! Second I'm not sure why there is a $25 holding fee if the reservation are made months prior. Rates are among the highest already.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for your 5-star review! We’re glad you enjoyed your stay. I’ll check the pedestal situation to see if we can make it more comfortable. The $25 fee only applies if you select a specific site number. Thanks again for your feedback! We hope you come again soon.

hosts are very friendly and accommodating. Grounds are well maintained, pool clean and very nice. Excellent location and sites were functional and clean. Bathroom in East end showing wear; mens toilet handle is broke and you have to know how to "push in" vice toggle to make it work. Bathrooms were clean. Towel dispensers in women's restroom on east end were inoperable for the first few days.

The KOA South Padre Island is a beautiful campground and clean. The staff is very friendly and they offer delivery of items to your campsite as well as pick up your trash daily. They offer fun activities on the weekends. The park is quiet and and enjoyable. We will come back to KOA South Padre Island again. We stayed from October 3-10 in slot 320. It was perfect!

Love the new waterside sites. The glider rocking chairs were a great touch. We absolutely love this place and return every year. Only thing we didn’t care for were people liked walking behind the rvs by the water and fish behind rvs. Just bad rv park etiquette. We realize that is not your fault at all and not sure how that can be corrected. Besides that.. park is perfect!

We have been coming to this park for 25 years, and the improvements in the last 25 years is outstanding!!!! Just a beautiful park. The staff is the best and are so welcoming, we feel like we are at home. Thanks so much for being an awesome park.

Very pretty campsite. We got the last waterfront slot 306. Nice breeze, nice view of sunset on their rocker for two. Nice chairs to sit on. Apparently a lot of people like to fish in that side. There is a sign that they can't pass so they are not at your campsite, but they are close by. Once a family with 4 kids were loud. I was trying to enjoy the breeze and read. We had an issue that because we were a bit inclined down towards the water, our septic tubes were not angled enough. When we hooked up to leave, we moved trailer to street about 5 feet so we can do the dump. Lots of washers & dryers, small cold exercise room, I used treadmill once. They have a nice outdoor area outside of community center with a pretty gas fireplace. Pool looks nice, we didn't get in. Good Internet. They have 4 showers, with toilets. My gripe there is that there is no shade in the afternoon to wait for one to be open. At 4:30 pm, it was hot. I wouldn't mind a stand up umbrella out there. And I don't like how the shower water comes out to the toilet area. There is no shower lip and the shower curtain is short. They need a longer inside clear plastic liner maybe. Short drive to Isla Blanca Park. Cost $12 to get in. There is a nice long beach. They have a Pavilion with hot dogs, snacks & drinks. Another time we tried free Beach Access #4 because it had a restroom in the parking lot. But not much parking in these beach accesses, you have to go early. It's a 7 1/2 hr drive for us, so don't know if we'll go back, but we liked it. If we do, we might try a pull thru.

The KOA was nice whereas you are close to the beach. However, the sites are very tight. If you have a rig that is longer than 40 feet (our rig is 46 feet), avoid sites 114 to 116 (there may be more sites but these are the ones that we noticed). While they offer pull-thru ability, again, they are very tight. We were in site 116 and there is a palm tree that is growing almost sideways instead of straight up. This will pose a problem for any good size rig while pulling in. Another person had to come over and pull on the tree in order for us to pull the RV past the tree. This palm tree really needs to be cut down. Another reason parking in these particular sites are challenging is due to the amount of cars that park in the street. There are a lot of owners who will park their vehicles with half on their site and the other half hanging over in the street. This only adds to the tight feel of the park. Next time we visit, we will try the more expensive sites to see if that will be a difference. We were in one of the pull-thru sites with a patio and upgraded furniture. The price was $105 a night but the weekend is a bit more expensive and we paid $115 for Friday (we stayed from Sunday-Friday). The park offers a ton of activities, if you want to participate with any of that kind of stuff. My husband did visit the fitness center and said it was nice for what it is.
