Wife and daughters went on a “girls” trip to the beach for a week. The place was clean, check in was a breeze, the only complaint from them was that they thought it was a bit closer to the beach. A fair walk, or paid parking for public beach access but otherwise enjoyed their trip. The home had everything needed, The host replied promptly with any questions. Would book again.

I’m in PCB twice a year to fish and take time for myself. I found this little gem and couldn’t be happier. It was quiet, across from the pool and had everything needed. Communication with the boat was easy and I will come back here when the next time comes around. I highly recommend this host and property! Close to Walmart and shopping and food places to eat. I’m very happy with this place and looking forward to returning

We greatly enjoyed our stay here! The home was ready for check in very early which was so nice. The home was stocked with everything you could possibly need for cooking or a day at the beach! The walk to the beach was not bad at all for me, my husband or our 3 kids. Very clean & the pool right across the street was awesome for my 8 year old!

We were right in front of the pool. Right down the street from the beach. Great location, beautiful area, friendly environment as I required assistance due to my lack of comprehensive skills. The property owner and the location staff were so understanding and guided me in the right direction. I'm grateful for the patience, I'm sure I made up for a good laugh.

Great! first trip as a family

The pool being right outside the front door was a plus with having 2 kiddos. The walk to the beach was not “horrible” for the kids😅 but once at the beach everyone had fun. The location of the property was nice, easy entering and exiting. Wish the heated pools were heated during our stay but unfortunately they were not. Overall great place to stay!

Just what we needed for spring break!

We definitely enjoyed our stay. I will say that the mattress in the master could def use an upgrade. I felt like I was falling in a hole all night long. The appliances are definitely dated. The microwave was a struggle but we managed lol

Home Base

This condo truly felt like home away from home. All nessesary accommodations were present and the property was clean. It was a little farther to walk to the beach than I had anticipated, so we drove a block over to beach access 40, and parked in the 12 a day lot so we didn't have to carry coolers and canopy so far. Walk would not have been bad without the large items. We thoroughly enjoyed retreating back to the nice cool house after a long day at the beach. Neighborhood felt very safe and well maintained. Greg was very prompt to respond to any questions we had during our stay.

Beach Resort

We enjoyed our stay at the Gulf Highlands Beach Resort Condo. We stayed in an older condo with limited updates but our price was reasonable for our accommodations and once we did our own cleaning, we were very comfortable. Our host was very accommodating and prompt with responding. Entry and exit into the gated resort was super easy and our host gave us everything we needed to keep it simple. The condo itself could use a few updates, but again, the price reflected that. Cupboards were a little overstuffed, but again the host is taking care of that! The couches were brand new and very comfortable. We had a heated pool right outside the condo, which was amazing. The Beach was gorgeous, also. The location is unbeatable.
