Great experience on Perdido Key. The boatyard and bay setup across the street with the ocean front condo makes for the perfect setup! The condo was fully remodeled, clean and would stay again!

Nice condo, just as described. Beautiful view! Agree the couch is quite low and there were some kinks with the gate.

Hi Lisa! Thank you for your review. We're thrilled you found our property to be a hidden gem. We hope to welcome you back soon!

The condo was spacious, clean, and very functional. The condo’s beach access was even better! Considering it wasn’t prime time for vacationers, it still seemed as though the property is never going to experience an overcrowded beach due to its location, which makes this a prime spot. Only thing that was a bit of a hassle was the parking. The lot became full pretty quickly and we had to park across the busy highway in overflow parking, but other than that, it was a great place.

We’ve stayed at Wind Drift condos for well over 20 years now. This was our first stay in this unit. It was nicely furnished and very comfortable. Maybe the best we’ve had. Wind Drift location is about the best on the beach with nothing to the west side but a state park.

Great location and great condo. Bathrooms were a little dirty but this was only a minor issue. Sofa was a low height and not comfortable. But overall a great place.

We enjoyed our stay. Property was nice, area was very peaceful and relaxing. Beach access was very convenient with a wonderful beach. Communication was good. We enjoy making meals on our trips and were a bit disappointed with the quality of the kitchenware…very cheap. Additionally, we found many of the dishes not clean. We adapted but would like to see better.

We will definitely stay here again. Super clean. Furnishings and decor were lovely and current - not dated like a lot of gulf coast properties.
Kitchen was well appointed with appliances and anything you could need. We had an issue with the wifi that was resolved within hours of notifying management. They’re very responsive and on top of things. Highly recommend.

Everything we hoped it would be & more! Highly recommend!
We were thrilled to see just how big the balcony is! That is where we spent most of our time. Both bedrooms & bathrooms were very spacious, & the large, open kitchen flowing into the dining & living area was just perfect. Especially loved the bar set up & a full cocktail utensil set provided. The decor is nice & light, very serene. The walk to the beach is one the shortest we’ve ever had staying anywhere! HUGE plus! My only suggestion would be to add a full length mirror in one of the rooms.

Property was as described. Clean and comfortable. Entry to property is a little confusing as the email with the entrance code has a block for touchless access but I was informed that the touchless only works for long term guests. That’s confusing. The sofa is a little low . We were ok with it but I could see how more elderly or physically weaker people might have a problem getting off the sofa.We loved the balcony but had smokers nearby so it made the balcony unusable at times.

Hi Darrell, Thank you for your detailed feedback. We're glad to hear that you found the property clean and comfortable. We apologize for any confusion regarding the touchless access; we'll work on clarifying that in our communications. Your observation about the sofa height is noted, and we appreciate your thoughts on how it may affect others. We're sorry to learn about the balcony experience during your stay and hope it didn't overshadow your overall enjoyment. Thank you for staying with us, and we hope to welcome you back in the future. ~Sunny Regards, Luxury Coastal Vacations
