Outstanding Gulf view! Excellent location to watch the beautiful sunset. Loved the beach accessibility. Loved breakfast on the balcony with waves crashing beside me. Very much appreciated the complimentary lounge seating. Unit was perfect for 2 people. Kitchen had everything we needed and more. The only downside, and I'm splitting hairs on this one, was the uncomfortable pillows. Will definitely book again.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the view! We do want to clarify a few points for future guests. The sheets provided are correctly sized for the bed, and we have not had prior issues with fit. Additionally, the furnishings, layout, and overall condition of the unit are accurately represented in the listing description and photos so guests know what to expect before booking. Regarding ice, we do not advertise or provide ice as an amenity, and this is not listed as part of what’s included with the stay. We appreciate your comments and will continue working to ensure expectations are clear and consistent for all guests.

The propery was very nice but communication with the host was difficult. Not sure if it was the vrbo platform or host. Was given incorrect code to enter unit and had it not been for employee on site would have been unable to enter unit. Apparently there was instructions at the office which i never received a communication about. Also would have really loved to have had an early check in feature as my travel plans had changed. Overall experience was good, beach was beautiful and very close to unit.
