We have stayed at this resort about 4 times, 3 times in our travel trailer and 1 using their cottage. I highly recommend this place as its very peaceful and it has great amenities! All guests we have encountered have always been very friendly as well as the people working the front office! I will continue using this resort every time we come down from Austin! Prices are also very reasonable, the sites are perfectly sized, and above all, its great having water, sewer, electric and even wifi connections! Overall I give this resort an A++++

This RV park had the most real estate per lot that I have ever seen! The sewer connection was on point for height and distance. Water had great pressure and the dryers did an amazing job drying all of my stuff quickly. They have curbside trash service (at scheduled times). Very little interaction with the staff but service was great each time. If I ever visit South Padre again, I'd stay here.

Tropical Trails Resort, although new, is an amazing place. Yes as a park in Texas it is going to be windy, but, rather wind than snow! We were here two weeks when we decided to rebook for next year. They have lots of activities to do, as always it is your choice to enjoy the activities, or sit by your site.||The owners and staff are truly engaged in all activities. It is great to see. Live bands, shrimp boil, happy hour with fun prizes, Taco Tuesdays, shuttle bus to south Padres Island for drinks, the list goes on! Golf course is only 15min away. Fishing and swimming in the Gulf of Mexico only 25 min away. ||Did we mention the sites are huge! Full hook ups, and best part, site garbage pickup. Just an added bonus. ||We are now Winter Texans! We leave in April 2022 after 6mnths of living the dream.||Next year we will definitely be back.

I don't normally write reviews but after reading the review posted by Dale Wilkerson I felt compelled to comment. While I was not present when his alleged incident occurred I can comment on what I do know. Dale Wilkerson obviously knows nothing about dogs. The dog he refers to is not a Bull Mastiff. Also, Bull Mastiffs are normally not overly aggressive and certainly not one of the most aggressive breeds. The dog he referred to (Abel) is very familiar to me and he is not aggressive to either people or other dogs. Dale obviously does not understand basic decency. To wait until after leaving the park and then trashing the staff is cowardly at best. If he truly believed the dog was dangerous to be around he should have reported it immediately. Obviously he was not concerned for his or anyone else's safety. My wife and I have been staying at Tropical Trail Resort since July. We have found the park to be well maintained and the staff is very friendly and helpful. They are pet friendly and the owner goes out of his way to make everyone comfortable and happy with their experience at Tropical Trails. I strongly recommend you disregard Dale's comments when considering Tropical Trails Resort. As a long term resident I can state his comments are simply untrue. We are full time RVers and this is one of the nicest RV parks we have stayed in.

We absolutely loved staying here! The owner and staff go outta their way to make sure things are kept up and clean. The front office Jan and Catrina and welcoming and friendly. I got to meet beautiful Abel he is a bundle of love. Looks are deceiving when you first see him. But no fear he’ll give you kisses and just loves to be petted.. Juan does an amazing job and is always willing to help make your stay as comfortable and accommodating to your needs, thus my pictures. We were allowed to plant trees and seed are area was provided with timers and hoses to water. We will be back as this is a family whom we miss!!❤️

I am sorry but Dale is not being honest. Shame on him for putting someones address on an open website. I have been in the office and the dog in question has never behaved in an aggressive manner towards me or anyone who has entered the office while I was present. Onsite staff is amazing and they work hard to make our lives here pleasant and easy. The owner and staff listen to residents and I feel certain that there would have been NO repercussions had he chosen to speak up while still living in the park. I for one hope that people will disregard Dales post. I am fully enjoying my stay here and look forward to meeting all my new neighbors who come to stay at Tropical Trails.

Nice RV park, a long list of rules that make the place nice, however the staff living onsite are not subject to the rules like the customers are. BEWARE!!! I entered the office and did not see anyone except for a large bull mastiff staring me down, he was unleashed. It was a Sunday afternoon.I am a grown man and could have probably defended myself, but had it been a child or a small adult, who knows. Aggressive breeds are not supposed to be allowed on the premises?????? I called out, and the office attendant came out in a panic, and immediately grabbed the dog by the collar. She was obviously surprised, and startled. This incident happened two-three weeks ago, and the park employee at space #84 still has the dog. Bull Mastiffs are probably one of the most aggressive dog breeds there are. SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED!! I did not complain before today because I was fearful of repercussions. I am checking out this week, for work!

Over the past year Tropical Trails was our home when we were not traveling, it is by far the BEST park in the RGV! The staff is friendly and extremely helpful! The amount of space you have is awesome! The pool area is fabulous! During the peak time of the year there are so many wonderful activities you will never get bored, always something to do! If you are ever in the RGV or if you are planning a trip down this way, call the ladies in the office and reserve your spot!

Clean, Clean, Clean. My 1st time visiting. Showers are clean, and spacious. Laundry room accepts cc or coin. This place is 20 mins away from SPI. You are not paying the high fees, and you have plenty of elbow room between pad sites. I will be planning my future vacays here. Thank You!!

This place is literally in the middle of no where. But we loved it. Very short drive though to all of your needs. Pool is big and nice!! The “Rec Room” was nice. They have a chef’s kitchen that you can use. That was lovely. Katie the receptionist was very helpful and such a sweetheart.

We booked for a whole month for our children to have a good time before returning to school. The website says they are family friendly. We had a wonderful first weekend, the place is amazing, lots to do, but for some reason I’m not entirely convinced they’re committed to the “family friendly” messaging advertised on the website. I’ll update my review at the end of our month stay.

We stayed at Tropical Trails from December through March and the weather is perfect for those looking to get away from the winter cold. Sites are spaced nicely from each other and are perfectly level. They have fiber internet hookups at each site- you can bring your WiFi router from home and be up on your own network in a couple minutes. I work remotely in IT, this is hands down the best internet service I’ve ever seen at a park. The owners are lovely and the staff is too. Juan is the best! We liked the Shrimp Boils the best, but there are a lot of activities planned in addition to the rest of the awesome amenities- heated pool, hot tub is awesome, gym, ping pong, shuffleboard etc. They also have the best Pickleball courts I have ever seen, and offer weekly lessons! My best Pickleball description - ping-pong on a half sized tennis court using a wiffle ball and a wooden paddle. It’s so fun. Monthly rates are very reasonable, I think the park just opened back up when we visited because of covid, so be sure to book in advance so you can get a spot. The only cons to be aware of: It’s a brand new park. It takes time/water to cover 150 acres in new grass seed. It will be muddy in parts. If you are a very light sleeper there is a train that runs by almost every night around 11pm. All in all, I would hands down recommend

I wish I could give this amazing RV Park a 10 star rating. What a beautiful, well-designed park! Everyone - Katie, Jan, Hill & Juan - was so super nice and extremely helpful when we got locked out of our motorhome (the handle broke). The WIFI is AMAZING, the pool beautiful, the laundry rooms and bathrooms convenient and well maintained. Lots of 'yard' between sites and all sites are flat, wide and paved. The roads in the park are all paved and named ~ nice, since it's such a big park! And, bonus.....the entire park is flat, so its easy to bike/walk/skate/play. Great dog park, conveniently located next to the bathroom/laundry building. The entire park is fenced and a gate for security. Brownsville is a great little town and we felt like the people who lived here really took pride in their surroundings. Love this town and LOVE this park! Highly recommend. We will be back!

Brand new Resort. Huge RV spaces with lots of room between rigs. Felt very private. Laundry, showers, bathrooms, fitness center are all state of the art. Level concrete pads. A nice pond in the back. Pool and hot tub. Gated and coded entrance, felt very secure. We spend three nights here for our wedding anniversary, traveling from Oregon to Texas. We stayed at a lot of places but Tropical Trails has to be the BEST we encountered so far! Thank you, and also thank you to the wonderful staff working on site! So friendly and helpful! Definitely highly recommend this park.

Stayed here for 2 weeks. Newer RV Resort. Level, concrete pads. Fantastic hot tub and pool. High speed internet, full hook up. Be aware there is an active train track on the backside of the park. I did not find it to be a problem. Mail delivery is accepted and we had no problems at all. Near enough to SpaceX Boca Chica and South Padre Island. Very close to the Palo Alto Battlefield.
