Loved our stay! We were sad to leave. The view and easy beach access were amazing, and loved that it was on the second floor so we could use the stairs or elevator. Balcony was a great place to relax and watch the waves. Clean, cute, super convenient location and easy to use the WiFi, etc. Nice AC, convenient laundry room right in the condo. Host had great communication.

The property was very nice and up to date. The floor could have been cleaner, condo could have been stocked better with a few bowls with lids. We bought a few kitchen towels and a bowl with a lid at dollar tree to donate. Overall the experience was great, on the beach, nice pool.

The pictures are an accurate representation of the condo.The beach view was as expected.The furnishings in this unit were not acceptable for the price. The mattress in the 2nd bedroom was terrible and sank to the springs—this was listed in a review from 2025 and still not resolved at our June 2026 stay. The refrigerator did not dispense ice or water to name a few issues we encountered. The host responded promptly when we told them of the issues. We were thanked for the feedback to improve the stay of future guests. I sincerely hope they address their issues but this did little to improve my stay.

It was okay. Nothing great, but nothing bad. Excessive sand left on the floor when we arrived. It obviously had not been swept up by cleaners. Only had one pillow per person and they were flat. The mattresses were worn out with sinking in the middle of the bed. Main bathroom sink clogged and toilet paper holder broken/missing. Main shower liner was moldy. Room smelled foul when we arrived but we resolved it by putting a lemon in the garbage disposal. Lower price for the area, but we were still somewhat disappointed.

The unit is worn and tired, if I am being generous, It needs an overall update and refresher. To add to that, the bed was broken in the first bedroom, but we didn't notice until time to go to sleep the first night, so that call was made the next day. They wanted to send maintenance out at 9am the first morning to assess it, but I asked for notice since that couple basically slept on the floor and were tired. They assured that they would, but they were knocking on the door at the same time we got notification -- so that couple got drug out bed with no notice. The broken box springs really weren't fixable, but they didn't want to go get us a replacement that day, so they had to just sleep the best they could and stay away from the edges and middle -- hard for 2 adults in queen bed. While they were there, maintenance had to fix the TVs in both bedrooms as well. There was a missing remote or two in one bedroom and the other had a remote but there was no back to it, so batteries were out of the question. Basically, no TVs the first night and morning either. Also, there was a smell of sewage on the balcony during the entire trip, which deterred us from spending time out there, plus one of the adirondack chairs was cracked and that was a little scary. This is all on file with management and maintenance, and we have pictures as well.

The home was very nice and clean. We had spectacular views of beach and gulf. We loved the idea of 2 pools. The main bedroom was great. The shower in one bathroom and tub in other is great. The second bedroom needs a new mattress. It was very uncomfortable as well as needing blackout curtains due to a light outside the window.

Nice condo; great location

The reality of the Tidewater condo was better than the website would lead you to believe. It's not fancy, but it's a nice condo with a great view. The only down side is the doors don't make perfect seals; if the wind and rain pick up the doors will leak.

Vacation with grandkids

The reviews were about right with the property. The furniture is dated and worn. The sofa bed was hard to pull out, there was a chip in the wall, the patio door lock in the living room is still broken, but they had sticks to put down for security. All in all it was a very nice and clean. We really enjoyed ourselves. The beach was fun for the kids, and they really enjoyed the pool. Watching fireworks from the balcony was an added treat.

One problem

I would like to see some increased monitoring on the vehicles in the parking lot. My trailer hitch was stolen from my truck. It’s not the money , it’s the aggravation of having to purchase another hitch. A new hitch will cost in the neighborhood of $50. Please have more of a presence in the parking lot of the property.

Nice Unit, but deceiving balcony view.

This unit at the Tidewater was very nice and comfortable. It was clean and stocked with everything we needed. The only problem was that the photo of the view from the balcony was completely deceiving. It showed a beautiful view of the beach and gulf (which is my biggest desire...a perfect view). In reality the balcony view (which is on the second floor) is directly over the roof of the indoor pool and fitness room. So...you are looking out at the roof then the beach and gulf beyond that. There were workers repairing the skylights on the roof during our stay, so I could not enjoy the balcony the way I like too. There was no privacy since I was eye level with construction workers as they repaired the roof. That was very disappointing. The photo from the balcony view and the description of the beautiful view need to be replaced to show future renters that the balcony overlooks a rooftop.

Dale, thank you for reviewing your stay it is truly valuable to our success. I will be updating our listing to reflect the construction on the roof of the indoor pool. (This is due to completed 5/15/21) We do have on our listing that their is construction going on, but not specifics, which is what I will be updating. I can understand wanting to be sitting on my balcony and enjoying the beautiful beach view. I hope this would not defer you from renting with us again and hope to host you in the future.
