Excellent Location, Affordable Rate, Comfortable Condo

We stayed in Castaways 8B from 09.11.2024 through 09.16.2024. Things of note: the coffee maker is a drip coffee maker, there is a great blow dryer in the master bathroom, the water pressure was excellent, internet worked fine. The appliances and ice maker worked great. 8B was clean and quiet with plenty of pots, pans, dishes, and clean kitchen and bathroom linens. There were menus and money saving coupons in the kitchen—we saved money at restaurants and attractions. Castaways was clean and safe and the property was well-maintained. The beach was clean and the water was clear. There is a toy box on the property near the pool for toys—take one/leave one. I prefer the smaller, boutique feel of Castaways vs the mega condominium complexes. I would definitely recommend Castaways 8B and our host Ty responded quickly to my questions. It was 10/10 vacation, only steps to the beach and nearby to so much fun, food, and shopping.

Vacation 2024

We were happy with the condo and especially happy with its location to the beach and the restaurants. Everything was as shown on the website. Patio chairs needed to be replaced as well as the pillows. Other than that we would stay there again.

Rest and Relaxation

Good clean property. Excellent location close to everything. Short walk to the beach. Really enjoyed our stay. Parking lot is kind of tight and the elevator is unpredictable but all in all we would definitely do it again.

Just as expected

The condo was just as described, we had a wonderful time. The beach and pool were just steps away. Condo was clean, mattresses were a little rough but we all survived. Owners were very accomadating and got us in earlier than expected. Elevator was broken upon arrival but they got it back going quickly. Parking is very tight.

Family Vacation

The condo was excellent! It fit every checkbox we had. Plenty of room for everyone. The kitchen was well stocked with all the necessities we needed. The owners of this condo where very kind and quick to responded to messages. They seem to care about their guest and really want people to enjoy themselves. Only negative issue we had was the elevator. My 83 years old dad went was with us and the elevator was a hit or miss on working. He had to walk up 8 flights of stairs 4 times. Dad says this was keeping him young however, he didn't want to leave the room much because of this.

Location is perfect!

Family spring break with college freshman twins & their friends. Perfect location for the young adults to go the the Hangout, perfect walking distance to shops, restaurants, etc.. The condo is very nice and IMO nicer than the pictures show. It's updated and has a great flow. We didn't feel crowded at all and we had 7 people and could have had another with no problem. Bathrooms are large. Brand new elevator and never had a wait, even during spring break. We will book here again!

Fall break trip

We brought our teenage grandson and his friend for Fall break. The condo is perfect for kids and families, great beachfront property and a nice pool! We were within walking distance to The Hangout and several restaurants and shops. We all had a great time, Gulf State park is so close and so much to do there, too!

Perfect!!

The condo itself was amazing; exactly as described. So much within walking distance. A huge selection of “take a toy leave a toy” for at the beach. Only issue, which was not with the condo, was the elevator which would get stuck. Would definitely stay here again!
