Thanks, Stewart - I am so glad you enjoyed your stay at "Happy Hours". You can't get closer to the beach unless you are a dolphin!! I hope you can visit again soon!
Yāall this place is perfect. The location is absolutely spot on. Right on the beach and close to everything. The condo is so nicely decorated and the kitchen has absolutely everything you need for your stay. Everything is good quality and good condition . Iāve stayed at many VRBO locations and the kitchens are usually equipped with the cheap stuff. Sure added to our stay. The place was super clean and ready for us to just start having fun. We will definitely be staying here again!! The perfect condo for a family!!!! Would highly recommend!!!

Thank you so much, Priscilla! I am so glad you enjoyed Gulf Dunes 112 and all of the extras - it means a lot that you noticed! I hope you can come back to the beach soon and I would love to welcome you back to "Happy Hours"!
The unit was great, perfect for our 4 adults and 2 children. The location is great with restaurants within walking distance. The owner is great. We had an issue with the dishwasher, I sent a message and within an hour a maintenance guy showed up and fixed it. We would definitely come back in the future if we get the chance.
