There are so many positives about this unit:
The easily reachable, helpful and informative owner/manager, Al Dewaard! Location - Beachfront, 4th floor (we didn't have to wait on the elevator at all, but could have climbed the short walk up stairs if need be), 15 minute walk to Thomas Doughnuts, short drive to Pier Park, Wal-Mart, Target and enough restaurants to please everyone.
Our party of 8 consisted of Mom and Dad in the master king bedroom, Grandma and Grandpa in the 2nd king bedroom, 2 teen kids in the bunk bedroom and 2 younger kids slept on the 2 sofas in the living room. This arrangement will work well until the kids are too big to fit on the sofas. The unit was cool and clean, and in good condition. The kitchen adaquately stocked, the appliances were up to date and easy to use. I spent lots of time on the balcony furnished with comfortable chairs and tables. We had great weather May 6-13 and spent every morning on the beach, in the water, walking or sitting in the included beach chairs. We spent every afternoon and some evenings in the north pool. It was heated and a lovely temperature. I also appreciated the new parking pass proceedure - do it on line before you arrive. No more trying to remember to keep the pass on the dash of the car. We had a wonderful, relaxing week. We give it a thumbs up rating. :)
