The Perfect Place for a Beachfront Class Reunion
Review From: NexTag Editorial Review, Jun 9, 2008
When my three best friends from college and I decided to have a mini class reunion for ourselves last April, we decided to head to our favorite spring break destination of years past: St. Padre Island. We all graduated in 1991, and we felt long overdue for Spring break. None of us had been to the La Copa Inn, but we'd seen it, and heard it was fun. And we loved the fact that it was right on the beach. One of my friends was so sweet: Her plane landed before any of ours, so she headed to Wal-Mart and bought four beach chairs to surprise us with! That was great, because it costs $20 to rent beach chairs! And we planned to do a lot of beachside lounging that week. As we already knew, there is not a lot to do on South Padre Island. That was fine with us - we just wanted a week of serious tanning and eating out. OK, and drinking a few margaritas. Our rooms (we got two doubles) were nice, they each had a view of the beach, and they had microwaves and refrigerators. The hotel's restaurant was great - especially the breakfast. The waffles are fantastic. We left the La Copa a little fatter and a lot happier, and we plan to do a spring break trip once a year from now on!
