Splash Beachfront Family Friendly Paradise - Water Park Lazy River & More

We enjoyed our stay. The voicemail for the phone number we were given to contact someone stayed full during virtually our entire stay. We were able to leave a message the first day about needing additional towels, and batteries for the various remotes. No action. The disposal did not work; we tried to report that but the voicemail was full, repeatedly. We called to say we had checked out at 7:00 a.m., but again, the voicemail was full, so we could not leave a message.

We had a fabulous stay in this condo at the Splash Resort! It was perfect for our family of 5, including 3 boys ages 11, 10, and 4. The condo was beautiful, clean, and quiet. The only noise I heard from neighbors was the opening/shutting of the sliding doors from the condo upstairs, but it was mild enough that I often just thought it was thunder! We loved opening all 3 of the large sliding doors in our unit, and just listening to the waves and enjoying the view. We spent LOTS of time on the large balcony of this corner unit (we did see dolphins, don't forget your binoculars!). The kids had a blast in the pools, playing in the waves & sand, eating sno-cones, and challenging each other to a game of air hockey. We took a gorgeous half mile walk up the beach to Thomas Donuts & Snack Shop (so good with lots of food options AND treats all day long, not just donuts!). The condo had everything we needed, but don't forget to bring enough extra paper towels, toilet paper and trash bags (we ran out of what we brought and had to buy more). Also, don't forget to bring some regular coffee filters and salt & pepper. Some VRBO's we've stayed at had these items (which may have been left behind by previous guests), but this condo did not. However, paper towels worked just fine for a coffee filter! All in all, this was a wonderful vacation, and we would definitely come back!

My ONLY complaint is the lack of communication about a late check-in. While the management company was very quick to respond to my emails, they still did not provide any specific information about what to do if you arrive late. I asked if the lobby desk would be closed at 9-10pm and what to do if they were. The response was, "You can check in at any time and are able to access your rental. You should find all the information that you need in your email and our app." We arrived late and tired after a LONG day of travel, but we had no idea what to do when we got there. There wasn't a circle drive for check-in like many resorts, so we weren't sure where to go. We didn't know to just park in the garage WITHOUT a permit. My husband wandered around all over the place looking for a desk to check-in to get our wristbands while the rest of us just sat in the car. We were tired and frustrated. We didn't know we could just go to our unit and get our parking permit/wristbands in the morning. There was nothing about this in the emails or app. Please consider adding more specific check-in info. Thank you!!!

Great unit! Thanks Panhandle getaways.

The condo was beautiful, spacious and more than we even expected. The view and balcony get an A+++ from me. My seven year old absolutely loved the water areas . Splash was truly the perfect place to take him having the pool with slides, lazy river, game room and beach. We didn't get to enjoy the beach as much as we hoped because algae was in really bad. Maybe next time because we all are planning on staying again as soon as possible. . The kid activities were awesome we loved the dive in movie theater and the build an animal (like build a bear) so be sure and take a look at what's happening during your visit. The kids really loved these extras.

The only thing that did disappoint was that there is not a bowling alley any longer . Thanks for a great vacation =)

Wonderful Condo. Be aware, however that dealing with Panhandle is not at all like dealing with the owner. Of the four agents we dealt with, not one could explain pricing for a period in excess of one month, nor could they agree on an amount. A request for an extension of our visit was met with no reply at all, also. Our microwave failed , so we spent two weeks without one.
