We are a fam of 6 that stayed for a week in the middle of summer. We have 4 kids, ages 5-15. We chose this location for a quiet vacation. We had a fabulous time! A couple of pointers: pack everything and plan meals well. The nearest regular grocery store is 30+ minutes away. While we love to shop local, the prices for every day items are steep. As for meals out, restaurants were incredibly busy with very long waits. We all enjoyed our trip and I measure the success by my husbandâs statement of-easiest vacation ever!
Pros
Full size washer and dryer were great
Kitchen well stocked-it had everything I needed
Fun, beach decor
Quiet location
Plenty of bath towels
Kid friendly-a little stash of games kept the kids entertained!
Wi-fi worked perfectly, lots of options on the TVs.
I loved the little outdoor area outside the front doors where we could neatly leave all our sandy items for the next day without bringing them inside.
Walk to the beach was easy
Beach was fantastic! Never too busy even in the middle of summer! And if you walk down a bit you can be secluded- very nice for our busy, loud kids!
Cons
Listing should read 1 King bed, 3 twin beds, and 1 futon. There was no sleeper sofa as far as I could tell. One twin bed is set up as a daybed.
I definitely couldnât view the ocean from the condo. The condo listing shouldnât be ocean front. However, the facility itself is definitely ocean front.
Only the master bedroom is dark. There are no blackout shades in the other 2 sleeping areas. My kids were up with the sun.
Cleanliness was just ok. Extra bedding for the futon, blankets on the beds, and pillow covers werenât clean so we washed them. Couch could def use a vacuum. However counters, surfaces, bathrooms, and fridge were sparkly clean!
It seemed difficult to find a place to stay this summer on the gulf coast so we took a chance on this little place, and it was great! The condo served its purpose, was priced right, the sand was white, and the water was fantastic! I can definitely see us coming back!
