Thank you for the review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay & look forward to future reservations in which you can take advantage of the return customer discount.
We came down for one last trip before becoming parents. This first floor unit was so convenient and comfortable with an absolutely amazing view of the Gulf. It was a quiet property and the free beach service was a great benefit. We would absolutely stay here again.
Great location. Place was very clean. Point of contact was easy to deal with when reporting minor damage to a table upon arrival inspection. Beach was not crowded and the complimentary chairs were incredible. Plenty of parking as well. Would not hesitate to stay here again!
The condo was really nice, clean and comfortable. I was so happy to find a first floor unit and this one did not disappoint. Beautiful ocean view. Very quiet area of the beach. We had a great time.

Relaxing, great beach, need to replace the bed mattress, you can feel the springs in it. Only complaint.
Response from VrboOwner on 17 Sept 2023
Thank you for your review. I am pleased to know you had a relaxing and great beach getaway. We value hearing from our guests as this helps us advance our guest's experience. We look forward to having another opportunity to host you the next time you are in the area!
Just a weekend trip down to Florida and it was great. Much like other reviewers, we agree that it might be a bit dated, but nothing to complain about. The view was amazing! The response for the management group was quick and reliable. I love the key pad entry for the whole family so we don't need a physical key to keep track of during our stay. Parking was easy and convenient. Overall, we would stay again!

We loved our vacation, the condo was in the perfect location, and was overall in great condition. With a 2 year old we loved being on the first floor, made it easier to load up our beach stuff and go every day. Would stay here again.

This was a last minute trip for us so we were happy to find a place. It was adequate but nothing spectacular. The location is not the best. Seems very run down.
