Great location but smells like urine

This is in a great location, easily walkable to the beach and local eateries. However, the accommodations were just OK. The unit itself smells like urine, and when I let the management know, they simply suggested I “open a window” and did not apologize or offer any air freshener. We enjoyed our time, but the accommodations didn’t feel as nice as advertised.

Perfect Location

This property is perfectly located. It’s right across from the beach. There are great restaurants, ice cream, and shops all around! The property itself was clean and had just what we needed. The only downside was WiFi was nonexistent. We tried troubleshooting and even called Vacasa support for help. We were told the service was too poor to support connecting devices. The lack of WiFi made the TV unusable because it required a connection. We were staying during the week, not in peak season. We were never able to use the WiFi or the TV. It’s not the end of the world by any means, but they should be more transparent with how bad it really is in case people rely on the WiFi for work or require a TV for their stay. The elevator was out during our stay as well. It wasn’t an issue for us, but it might be for some (the property is on the 4th floor). Other than that, this a great, economical find that will set you up for an excellent getaway!

Great location!

The condo is in a great location and is very clean. It's a bit dark, even with all the lights on at night and the TV is ridiculously small. Currently, the elevator is out so if you have a lot of personal items to lug up to the 4th floor, you might want to make sure it's working before booking. It was not easy lugging up a large suitcase and cooler along with other personal items. The bed is comfortable but the pillows are terrible. You might want to bring your own. It is small but clean and the perfect spot for a short stay.

Clean. Across street from beach. Convenient. Restaurants within walking. Elevator alarm went off all day and into the late night. property managers were contacted 2x. Had to leave property because we could not sleep. Vacasa property managers did not help settle the issue after speaking with multiple people. The room itself was clean and comfortable.

Dirty

The room was very dirty. It appeared it had not been cleaned. Silverware was dirty, sheets had dirt in them, dust everywhere, remote had sand on it. Couldn't even get in touch with the management company to let someone know. Had to stay somewhere else with no help from them.

July 4 - 3 night stay

The location (very safe and across the street from the beach), decor, amenities, bed quality were all good. It has a lot of shops, restaurants in and around the building and a family friendly / artsy environment. The price for a tiny studio like this seemed very steep even for a long weekend…, considering it did not have a kitchen. *It would be nice if the place had 2 chairs in the balcony like many condos did in that building and 2 beach chairs vs 1. Overall a good place to stay for a 1-2 days.

Convenient but so busy

Nice to park and walk but beach was crazy even early, not much for space. Local food/coffee/etc. good but all very pricey. Our shower drained very slow and left you standing in water and we could rarely get the TV to stay on - station/service kept freezing. If you don't mind busy busy every where, you can park, walk anywhere you want and enjoy a social trip!

Location is awesome, room was ehh

The three stars is for the location of this rental. The location is awesome! Right across from the beach, restaurants and coffee shops right downstairs. Everything is in walking distance, which is fantastic! The room, on the other hand, could definitely be cleaned up and way better for the price. The paint is chipping off the walls, the end tables and there’s mold all over the bottom of the balcony door. The bed pillows were flat as a pancake and the sheets were itchy, completely polyester and not comfy. It smelt musty and we definitely weren’t impressed. It was one (very little) step above a motel 8.

Short stay on 30a

We didn’t have a good experience here! Not good instructions to work the tv. The tv froze constantly! The patio door was not secure. The fan made noise. The air conditioner made noise. The pillows weren’t good quality. The couch was worn out. We have a rental on 30a and our mgmt company would never allow those issues in our property.

Great vacation. All as advertised. 5 stars. Location and area amenities, top notch! Written TV instructions were inaccurate and signal required constant reboot. Front desk and maintenance were responsive.

Cute place and perfect location

I am in love with Gulf Place and Santa Rosa Beach. This studio condo was perfect. We parked the car when we checked in and never drove it again until we left. Everything you need is within walking distance.

Santa Rosa Beach

We had a nice overnight trip. My daughter and I had access to the public and private beach as well as the private pool. There was a great coffee shop, Pizza Place, the perfect pig, and a great restaurant on the same block. The only negative was construction right next-door as well as a super early check out and a very late check in. That made it hard for a one night stay.

Wasn't as expected....

There was no storage at all for our clothes....there was no dishwasher but they had dishwasher pods, there was nothing but Bthrm sink to wash dishes. Tv would not work, but they did send someone by to look at, we had already gotten it to play movies,was told everyone was having TV issues, not enough service for the amount of people. Sand was everywhere in our room, did not appear to have been swept. Would not stay in this condo again....but did enjoy the area and would choose another condo

Honeymoon trip

We loved the place! My husband and I stayed here for our first time on our honeymoon. Supper cute, beautiful view and clean just needs a little updating in the bathroom. The sink was slow to drain and shower head was dated. Great spot in town, walking distance to the beach and all the shops. Only complaint we had was the parking and TV. We were told there would be two reserved spots only to find out there weren’t any. Not too sure if our spots just got taken by others there shopping or if they were first come first serve but we had to park way out of the away several times. The TV worked it was just really slow and kept freezing up even after trying the trouble shoot but we aren’t there to watch TV, we are there for the beach so it didn’t bother us! All in all it was a great place and we will definitely be coming back!
