Hi,
We stayed at the cottage for 6 days and we had a very pleasant short vacation. It’s a great location, very close to the beach, restaurants, small convenience store. Thanks!

So glad you had a great time! It's such a cute place and convenient to everything. Come back again soon, the beach is asking for you.
We have been to this location twice and it is always pleasant. The Host/Caretaker is avery helpful and keeps the grounds in great shape. The pool is a nice amenity.

I'm happy that you enjoyed your visit(s) to Gulf Gardens. It really is a hidden gem on the beaches. Hope to see you again soon.
The cottage was easy to locate and easy to access. Everything was very clean. The entire complex is a hidden gem. The beach is just across the street, plenty of places to eat within walking distance. We loved it so much we rebooked before we left.

Thanks for visiting and then booking it again for the next trip! I'm so glad you enjoyed your visit to the hidden gem. There is so much to like about the place - heated pool, clean grounds, easy parking, beach across the street, plenty of food/beverage options nearby. Can't wait to have you back!
This was definitely in the top three locations we have ever visited. Very clean, friendly staff and we had access to everything we needed. I give 5 + stars. Thank you.
Property was very small but just right for 2 of us. Furniture was beautiful. Refrigerator needs replacing and would recommend all the woodwork be washed, very dusty.

Thank you for your kind review and input. I have notified our cleaners that the woodwork was in need of attention and it has been addressed. The refrigerator is next on the list. Thank you and I hope you'll come back for another visit soon.
Great location and very clean little cottage! Our only complaints were that we didn’t always have hot water (the manger said it was probably due to the staff doing laundry), no tv in the bedroom, and the heated pool was ice cold. But it was an overall nice stay.

Thank you for your review Susan and I'm sorry that you had a couple of hiccups during your stay. The pool heater recently needed some work, which is why the pool was cold during your stay. It's since been remedied. The hot water heaters have also just been replaced, so that issue should be remedied as well. I hope you'll come back for a visit again real soon!
Grounds and upkeep of place are very well detailed. Cottage stocked for comfortable stay; provided beach chairs and beach towels. Right across the street from beach, close to Johns Pass, bus trolley for beach runs down Gulf Blvd. and Uber is a convenience. No need for rental car.

Thank you for the nice review and info for future guests. I love this cozy place, too. The pool is wonderful (heated for the winter guests, too) and the beach is ever so close. I hope you'll make another visit soon.
Overall very nice property. Everything was clean with exception of the floor. Our feet were dirty on ths bottom whenever we were barefoot. Would have given a 5 on cleanliness otherwise.

I'm glad you felt it was worth the money. But, I'm not sure how check-in could have been deemed difficult. We haven't had any issues with guests checking in at any time. The unit is set up with a keyless entry system and directions for entry are emailed well in advance (including the door code). There is also an on site manager to help. If there is any difficulty whatsoever I'm available 24/7 to help as well, just a phone call or text away.
Pros
1. Nice pool, good parking, flowers, across from the Gulf.
2. Full kitchen, microwave, refrigerator, TV, comfortable bed.
Cons
1. Checkout time was too early at 10 am, standard is 11:00 am.
2. Needs paint, walls have holes, loose kitchen cabinets.
3. Two kitchen lights and the stove top light are burned out.
4. Dull kitchen knives are , no scissors, small bathroom

Thanks for the review and recommendations. A couple of points I feel I need to clarify. 1. the checkout time is clearly stated on all advertisements and on the rental agreement that was signed. Also, a request for a later check out time can almost always be accommodated simply by asking. 2. The entire unit was recently renovated/painted and the holes being referred to are tiny nail holes where pictures had been removed (not some giant holes in the walls). There are no "Loose Kitchen Cabinets". In fact, this guest somehow pulled the brand new bathroom vanity off of the wall, requiring a repair. 3. Kitchen light bulbs have been replaced. 4. New knives have been purchased. The bathroom is clearly depicted in the photos. Yes, it is compact, but very clean and serves adequately, with no prior complaints.
I take pride in providing a neat, clean and well-stocked vacation space for my guests and always strive to describe it accurately and provide recent photos.
Only thing that could have made the trip a little bit better was a ac unit in the bed as it got pretty warm in there

Glad you enjoyed your visit. Since it's a 1 bedroom unit, many times the guests leave the bedroom door ajar to let the cooler air in. But, we are looking in to adding a 2nd ac unit at this time. Thanks for visiting and hope you'll be back to Gulf Gardens #8 soon.
Perfect for a little get away.
The only complaint we had was not enough toilet paper.
No tissues. No dish soap to wash the dishes.
We bought them ourselves.

Glad you enjoyed your visit. I wish we could have earned a 5 star review and would appreciate knowing if there were specific reasons for a 3 rating. We want everyone to have a 5-star experience!
Clean property, good management, owner communicated effectively and took care of even a small confusing issue with a chair. We have stayed in this area before and love it. Money well spent! Top notch location and quiet. Only a 2 minute walk across the street to an awesome beach.
