Excellent family vacation
We recently spent a week at a Sandy Turtle - Gulf Place 3-bedroom condo. The location was excellent. It was directly on a beautiful beach with many restaurants located within minutes. The condo was immaculate and extensively appointed with everything we needed for our stay including beach chairs and toys for the kids. Additionally, the rental company was friendly and responsive. We would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful condo
Just like the pictures in the listing! Upon walking in you see a beautiful view of the pool and ocean. Everything was just right, so clean and well stocked. Great location and close to everything. Booking was easy and Sandra was a great host, making sure we had everything we need. Would stay here again!

Family trip
My family and I had the pleasure of staying in this unit last week and it was a dream! The unit felt luxurious and you can tell it’s been recently updated and was well stocked with kitchen items, soaps, paper towels etc which lasted the whole week and even beach chairs, umbrellas and toys for us to use which really came in handy. We had a wonderful stay and we hope to stay again next year!

Outstanding condo on the beach
Anna Maria is a beautiful beach and this condo is delightful. It is a pleasure to have your morning coffee looking over the pooll onto the gulf of Mexico. All of the appliances and furniture are brand new. The host, Sandy, is wonderful to work with. We are coming back next year. Tom K from New Hampshire

We’ve stayed in many condos and homes on the beaches in Florida and this one is the BEST!!
First off, Sandy is AMAZING to work with and makes renting from her so easy. The views from the condo are the best out of all the units at Gulf Place with the bright blue pool, framed with palm trees and then the ocean. The condo was super clean when we arrived and we were supplied with enough toilet paper, paper towels, dishwashing tabs, and laundry detergent for the whole week (which is nice because on most trips that’s something we have to buy). Every amenity has been thought of for you with an over-the-top stocked kitchen and bar (which we loved), board games, and beach chairs/umbrellas/toys. We vacationed with my family of four and my parents and everyone had enough space to spread out but it was cozy enough for great family time. We also loved the super comfy sectional with recliners. The ONLY con (which is a personal preference and won’t keep us from renting again) is that the mattresses are on the firm side…my hubby had to go to the chiropractor when we got home and my back hurt all week when I woke up. As for the property itself, the pool was immaculately kept all week, the grounds are well manicured and taken care of, all of the people staying there were very kind and friendly, and the deck with chairs sitting right out on the beach is a nice touch and not something I’ve seen other places. We have already reserved the Sandy Turtle for the same week next year we loved it so much!! Thank you, Sandy for thinking of everything to make a stress-free and enjoyable vacation for our family!

About the host

Owners & Host, Sandy Beach Vacay, LLC

My story will sound familiar.

For many years I was a software sales professional and “road warrior.” You know the
type (maybe you ARE the type). Bags packed all the time. Room service a given. Living
out of a suitcase as I traveled from client to client to install the latest IT solution or
handle the latest tech crisis. The pressure was on. All.The.Time.

Over the last 20 years, I logged more than 1,000 stays in hotels all over the country.
Along the way, I learned a LOT about what makes for a great “on the road” experience
-- from booking and check-in, to hospitality and customer service.

I also found that once I got home, I wanted nothing more than to head for the beach
where I could finally decompress and relax. There’s just something about ocean waves and the surf crashing onto a sandy beach tinted by a setting sun. It calms the mind. I began to think about creating a “home away” experience for people who could enjoy all the perks of being away while staying in a homey setting close to a beach.
I bought this investment property to enjoy with family, friends and to host potential guests..

I take pride in the unit having renovated every room and make sure it has all the state of the art amenities. Making sure you have a GREAT vacation in this premier condo is my #1 priority. You can reach me 24 x 7 for any questions or concerns.

Why they chose this property

We love the Gulf beaches and aqua blue water. Many restuarants and shops on this "Old Florida" island.

What makes this property unique

Free trolley that goes around the entire island. Trolley stop close to the complex.
