This was our fourth stay and we had a blast! The condo was wonderful, as always. We had great weather and of course, the beach was clean and not too crowded! The only downside (which is not related to the condo) is that the wifi and the cell service is spotty, but I think it is the surrroudings of all the buildings, so that would be something to keep in mind if you need to be wired in... :) Sandra has always been awesome to work with and I consider her a friend. The condo is fabulous!!!!!!!!!!!!! Enjoy!

Owner response:Lori and her family has been great for guests. I enjoy them very much. I like to learn about the families that I rent to- it seems more personal than just a business transaction. I have made many new friends and never seen them. In God's word, we are to love our neighbors. and I love everyone as if they're part of an extended family. Thank you Lori for the kind response about our condo. Hope the internet is corrected soon. I will advise the Association about this.

We had a lovely time and really enjoyed the Condo. The Seacrest is a smaller complex which is what we were looking for and this condo was perfect. Sandra, thank you for being so easy to work with. We plan on renting this condo again next year. Bill & Pam Fatheree Mt. Vernon, IL

Owner response:Bill & Pam was really easy to work with. Our condo is good for small families or a girl's beach trip. I will greatly accept Pam's family again. Hope everything ok with daughter. The unit is directly on the beach and is great for sitting on balcony watching dolphin early am and late pm. Thank you for the opportunity to have you for a guest.

Sharon...The condo was lovely, it looked exactly like the pictures. Very well decorated, very clean, and had every amenity that you could want. We really enjoyed sitting on the balcony early morning, and late evening, and it was very peaceful. There was some oil on the beach, but only small amounts, nothing that you could not step over. Sunshine everyday, and pretty hot. Overall this was a great place to stay and you were very nice and very pleasant to work with. We really enjoyed going to the Naval Air Musem in Pensacola, FL. it was really fascinating to look at all the planes they had in there. It is worth your time to go see this place. Thank you for letting us stay at your condo, we made lots of memories for years to come. Thanks a lot The Hilliards

Owner response:Thank you for choosing our condo. I'm glad the oil wasn't a deterrent for your vacation. I appreciate you for sticking with your plans to come down to our lovely beaches. I hope everyone comes down and sees the way things really are. I enjoyed talking with you on the phone and invite you back. You were a pleasure. Sandra

Sandra, We had a wonderful time during our stay in your condo the last two weeks in January. The condo was exactly as pictured and very comfortable. The entire condo was very tastefully decorated and and provided a home away from home. We found the kitchen very well equipped for cooking when we weren't visiting the restaurants in the area. Thanks for the tips on places to eat, they were great. Even though the weather was, from what we understand, colder than usual, we had a great time walking the beach and enjoying the balcony on warmer days. We kept telling ourselves, "Well, at least it isn't snowing". We will certainly recommend your condo to friends and we also hope to return. Thanks again for a enjoyable vacation. Shari and John

Owner response:John and Shari were great guests and I enjoyed having them. I will gladly rent to them again and I hope the weather is better next time.

Hi Sandra...Happy New Year 2010!...just spent the past week here at your "little piece of heaven" and absolutely loved it! Such a beautiful and comfortable condo, and perfect access to SO many area attractions. The Christmas and New Years holiday season is a wonderful time to come down "when the coast is clear"....thanks again!

Owner response:David was a pleasure to have as a guest. I will gladly welcome them back again. Thank you for choosing my condo and I'm glad you enjoyed your vacation from the bitter cold.

A great condo - very clean, good location, nice view. Sandra is good to work with - efficient and pleasant. Note that the top bunk will only sleep a small person due to ceiling clearance, but the sleeper sofa is comfortable. We will return.

Sandra, Your condo was just perfect for us, it was everything you said it was and more! The view from our balcony (we saw lots of dolphins too)was beautiful, we wished we had booked a longer stay! So next time we hope to be able to enjoy your great condo, the pristine pool, and gorgeous beach for a full week or two. Thanks for all your help in making this a memorable trip.

Owner response:Mary, you were a pleasure to work with. A very pleasant lady and I am so glad you enjoyed the vacation. I'll be excited to have you as a guest anytime. Thank you

Sandra, We loved your condo. It was beautiful! We saw dolphins almost every day out in the Gulf. The condo was just right for a family of three. It was the perfect home away from home for us because of its central location. Thanks for having such a beautiful condo available for rent!

Sandra, I absolutely loved the condo. You didn't exaggerate in the least regarding anything. We managed to have some good days in between the rain, but I have to say that even on the stormy days, the view was breathtaking over the water. My 11 year old had the best time. Thanks so much for your hospitality. Also, the return of our deposit was very speedy. I plan on being in touch with you next year for another visit. It will be refreshing from now on, not to search for a condo online. I will always stay at yours from now on, if available!

We stayed at your condo from oct. 4 - 7th, 2007. it was very nicely decorated. although the water was rough and dirty, we still managed to lay out on the beach and relax somewhat. it was fully furnished and had everything we needed. will definetly keep you in mind when we go back there. thanks again, gaynell

Owner response:The water is usually not dirty, but there might have been a storm to bring in trash. I'm sorry it wasn't clear for you.

We stayed in this condo during the last week of June '07. We thoroughly enjoyed the stay. The condo was the perfect size for our family of four. The bunks in the hall came with linens, which other units did not provide. The unit was comfortably decorated and had all necessary amenities for cooking, laundry etc. The view from the balcony was great! The owner was very friendly and easy to communicate/do business with. We will definitely stay here again on our next visit!!!

Sandra, This was a great week thanks to you! The weather was beautiful. Your condo was also beautiful, comfortable and fun. We especially enjoyed sitting on the balcony & listening to the surf in the evening. We hope to do this again & again. Thank you so much.

Our first "real" vacation since our honeymoon 8 yrs ago (maui) and what a wonderful place to be!!! When I opened the door, I knew it was the right place. I love to paint and appreciate your faux finish. We came down with about 40 people and your condo was the nicest. I saw a few of the others. Next time we visit, I will request yours. Had a great time. Thanks soooo much for sharing.My 5 yr old loved her first visit to see the ocean.

Your condo is a wonderful, relaxing place. The decor is outstanding. You included all the little "extras" that are welcoming. We have been visiting Gulf shores once or teice a year for several years. Your "little piece of heaven" is our favorite. May God continue to bless you and your family.
