Thank you for that review. We agree. It is a “shore thing”. The view from the balcony is gorgeous. Yes, please return. We would love to host you. Becky🏖️
Great property - exactly as described! The location was perfect and everything was clean and comfortable. The host was very responsive and provided all of the information we needed ahead of time. We had a wonderful experience and would definitely stay here again!
We had a lovely stay here. The view from the balcony was great! We watched 2 weddings on the beach, and a surfboard competition!! Mattress was great. Kitchen had plenty of pots & pans, but could have used a few more sandwich plates. We will absolutely stay here again!!
We got there and checked in without any issues. We have stayed in this complex before, this was our best experience. The hide a bed did not open but our 10 year old slept on the bunk beds.
It was clean, all the reviews were a great help in choosing this place!!

Perfect getaway for a refresh for my hubby and me! Condo was perfect for the two of us! It was clean and king size bed was comfy! Perfect location with beautiful view of the ocean and beautiful sunrise view! There is also a beautiful pier (from condo next door) that is lit up at night that provides a beautiful romantic nighttime view. We walked to Costal restaurant from the beach for an ocean view lunch! The owners answered questions very timely before our booking. We had no issues with checkin or checkout! Highly recommend!

Why they chose this property
Growing up, Becky and Chris, have seen a lot of the United States and the world. (We are military brats!) We have seen a lot of beautiful places. So when we decided to retire around 2010, we looked around the world to see where we wanted to retire. We chose the Gulf Coast! We love the white sandy beaches and the beautiful Gulf water! Then, we found a place on the beach with direct Gulf views! Now, we would love to share our beautiful condo, the Shore Thing, with you!
