This is the sixth time I've stayed in this building, but the first time for this condo. It was clean and the rental company provided everything needed for a great stay. They checked in with us few times to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The check in process was easy and everything went smoothly. I will stay in this condo again in the future.

Couch, recliner, beds, appliances, & bedding need updated. Love that it is dog friendly but cost is high for the unit compared to others. It was a last minute trip so very few options that were dog friendly, so took what we could get. Good location. Check-in went fairly well.

Beachfront condos that are pet friendly and have an indoor as well as an outdoor pool can be hard to come by! Be sure to reach out when you plan a next last-minute stay - we may be offering some discounts!

Great location on the beach, safe area, nice condo

Overall, we were very pleased with our trip to Golf Shores and our stay at the Caribbean condominiums. The location directly on the beach was nice and in close proximity to much shopping and restaurants. The condo floors could be cleaned much better as they are tile and tend to soil your feet and footwear in a short period of time Utensils and baking dishes. There is a variety, but not the easiest if you enjoy cooking.
