Excellent Experience!

Easy check in/out process. Parked and walked right to our room. Didn't have to stand in a line to check in/out! All resort amenities available for the guests. The Sky Bar sits over Front Beach Road and offers fun events each night. (Music Bingo, Trivia, Karaoke, Live Music, etc.) Great location! Pier Park is right down the street. The owner, Steve, responds to messages quickly. Excellent communication! Room was clean, well-stocked, and wonderfully decorated. Room rates and the additional fees/taxes are very reasonable, which is a huge plus in this economy! Highly recommend booking this unit! You won't regret it! Thanks so much, Steve! :)

Just as described / WONDERFUL!

My husband and I stayed for a week. The location is great, close to everything we needed. Parking is easy and feels safe. We took advantage of the beach every day and watched the sunset from the balcony every night. The unit is adjacent to the elevator but we heard absolutely no noise. There was also no noise from units to the side, above or below. The building and facilities have plenty of places to sit near the shop, Starbucks, ice cream/pizza place, lounge, and pool if you need to get out of the sun for a while. The in unit washer dryer was nice to have. The kitchen has everything you would need to cook a meal. Steve was super prompt to respond to questions. We'd definitely stay here again.

Loved this rental! Condo is on the quiet side of the building, away from the crowd. Easy access to the beach, which is stunning. We watched dolphins and rays from the balcony every morning. Condo is stocked with everything you need and more. The bed was very comfortable, we will definitely be back! Thanks Steve for letting stay in your beautiful condo!

Great condo!

We had a great trip to PCB! The location of the room was perfect! Close to the elevators and right by the beach access ramp. The room itself was nice and clean. Bathroom could use an update but it was still nice! The only thing we wished differently was to have 2 bathrooms instead of 1 🤪. The resort is really nice, we loved the Sky Bar and snack bar. We also liked that the resort doesn't put up a ton of rental chairs so there was plenty of room for tent set up. Steve was easy to communicate with and quick to respond, and checked on us frequently. We will definitely be back!

Room was great, resort… not so much!

Our room was great. Very clean and updated, but the resort is painfully laid out. Stairs, stairs and then some more stairs!! 3-4 of the 8 elevators were down during our stay. Luckily this unit is on the 5th floor and the sky bridge lands on the 3rd, but some in our group were on way higher floors. Parking isn’t adequate to accommodate the volume of guests that are there during peak season. Again, all these issues have zero to do with the host of our property. They were great and in contact with us the whole trip.
