Fantastic stay!

This was our second time staying in this condo and absolutely love it! Everything we needed was available for the kitchen as well as the beach. Loved the new tower with the slide and putting green.

Family beach teip

The condo was fantastic and exactly what we expected! I wish Turquoise would have allowed us access to the facilities prior to the 4:00 PM check in. This is not a reflection on the owners of the condo, we would just have liked to be able to get to the pool prior to checking in. Other than that, it was a great place and we would definitely consider coming back!

Perfect beach vacation!

My husband and I love everything about this condo. Check in was easy and Dina was so accommodating. The unit was immaculate and beautifully decorated. The views from the huge balcony are exactly what we wanted. The hot tub and grill on the balcony were such a nice added bonus. This was one of my favorite stays in Turquoise Place. I can’t wait to return!

Great trip!

We had a wonderful stay - even with a couple days of rain. The condo is beautiful and very accommodating to families. The resort itself has a lot of great amenities. The view - right on the beach - can’t be beat. My only suggestions is to replace the pillows - especially in the first bedroom when you walk in. And maybe more towel hooks in the bathrooms. It’s hard for a family sharing a bathroom to hang all the towels up. It was a great stay! We will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Dina Robison

Host profile image
My husband and I have been married for 37 years with two wonderful children, a beautiful granddaughter and a handsome grandson. Our son is a proud graduate from Texas A&M and our daughter is an LSU Tiger. We live in The Woodlands, Texas but are both from Monroe, La. This was the beach we both grew up and is where our heart is!

Why they chose this property

Turquoise Place offers everything we were looking for. We love all the amenities but what stood out for us is the summer kitchen on the balcony with a hot tub too and the fireplace in the family room. The lobby is absolutely gorgeous as well!

What makes this property unique

We love the Brazilian hardwood floors in all 3 bedrooms. It is also furnished with class and has a unique style. We enjoy our coffee in the mornings on our very private gulf front balcony and we love to grill at night with a glass of wine. Our balcony is unique because we have an elegant, white, stone top coffee table with a large, comfy, slip cover sofa which makes for a beautiful setting! Our balcony has a view of the gulf/beach AND the gorgeous pool! How special to have a grill, hot tub, and a large comfy sofa with four chairs, plus two lounge chairs all on the balcony to enjoy with family and friends.
