DoubleTree by Hilton Corpus Christi Beachfront

The stay was amazing! The room was perfect, comfy, and clean. I loved how they provided necessities like shampoo, conditioner, and body wash to freshen up after such a long drive. It's incredible that it's 3 minutes away from the Texas State Aquarium! I will be staying here again!

Front desk was not hospitable during check-in. They gave me a lumpy bed with wrinkled sheets that looked like a 6- year- old made the bed. Balcony had no table. (Put your food on the ground). Balcony rails were bulky and white (hard to see any view through) After midnight when I got in bed the SHEETS were wet. I called front desk and complained. They cut me off and brought me new sheets and RUDELY told me I need to change out the sheets myself. I changed sheets and I went to sleep. I left the wet comforter on the floor since they didn't bring me a new one. I woke up hours later to wet sheets AGAIN....now the bed was wet, my hair wet. ALL my belongings damp or wet. I had to get on the floor bc of the damp mattress. Apparently the AC was putting out too much humidity. I went down and complained to the front desk. They apologized and told me to request a refund from trip.com since that's who I booked with. I asked did they note my issue in the system. Dude said YES. I immediately filed complaint with Trip.com and Double Tree said they won't give me a refund because I didn't complain to the hotel. LIES! I spoke to the front desk TWICE about the wet issue. NEVER AGAIN. Their bay beach is brown, nasty and full of jelly fish lined all down the shore. I saw over 40 jellyfish one morning. No joke. I'm told that's where they hatch. It's not a real beach. It's the bay. Go to Padre Island a few miles away with clear beaches (whitecap Beach is the best) or Emerald Beach Resort a few miles away with indoor pool and more of a family feel. I'm done with DoubleTree after they lied saying I never complained about my room.

I paid a premium price for an ocean front room. It was advertised with a beautiful picture of the beach and ocean from your balcony. Our room had the ocean view but you could not see the beach unless you stood on your tip toes or leaned way out from a wall. You could only see the ocean. This was a deceptive sale. I feel that I should be returned some money. The maid service was very basic trash and new towels/supplies. Three days they forgot to replenish different supplies and one day we had no service at all. The front desk got very used to seeing us for forgotten supplies. Pretty substandard cleaning service. The stay was ok but not for the price.
