Great space & great location
We had a group of 3 adult couples, stayed 4 nights. The location was fantastic and there was plenty of room in the condo for all of us. My only complaints are that it was a little uncomfortable watching tv in the living room on one of the couches; we had to turn our heads to the left to see. Not a huge deal. The other negative was that the dishes were put away dirty. This was a pretty big deal for my family full of germaphobes. I feel like this falls more on the previous guests than anyone else though. Overall I would definitely recommend staying here and would stay again myself.

Nice family home away from home
I love this house and the setup it has, the pool is open late and the beach entrance is steps away. The only thing I don’t like is the parking fee.

Great place
A little smaller than it appeared but handled all eight of us perfectly fine. Usually there are umbrellas and chairs already in condo for guest use so we had to buy those, we left them for the next guests to enjoy. The wagon that was there was an awesome touch, made it easy to bring stuff back and forth to the beach. Overall it was a wonderful place and a very short walk to Hangout and Pink Pony. We highly recommend for a family.

End of hall unit
The property is the last room in the top floor. Stairwell and garbage chute are right outside. The condo location is perfect for walking to most places. Only downfall to being in that unit is you hear everything in the hallway and stairwell. Pictures make it look larger than it is. Still plenty of space and nice but not a large as it appeared in the photos.

I would book again
This was a great vacation for my family. We had 10 people, plenty of space and everything was great. We brought an air bed, knowing that all pull out couches suck, and everyone was happy. So easy to come and go from the condo to the beach to the pool. The beach was very nice, white sand, clear water, no problems at all. I would book it again.

Family Vacation 2022
Overall we had an amazing stay. The only complaint is minor. The place wasn’t super clean. The dishes had food stuck to it so we had to rewash pans and utensils. There was someone else’s socks behind the couches too. Not the end of the world. I would definitely go back and stay here again.

Family vacation
This property was exactly as listed. The condo was beautiful and very clean upon arrival. Check in and check out were a breeze! The only complaints I have is the dumpsters on the ground level were emptied very very early in the morning which was very loud in the front bedroom. There is also a bar across the street which has live music on the weekends. This probably wouldn’t be a problem if you don’t mind going to bed a little later. Overall I would still recommend this condo 100%. We hope to return to this specific one in years to come! It was perfect for our family of four plus my parents.

My review
The description of the amenities was not accurate. There was no jetted tub which was pictured when we were looking and the master bath did not have two sinks. It was actually very tiny for a master bath. Also, the pillow shams were dirty and smelled of perfume. When we walked on the floor in bare feet our feet got dirty. We didn’t know this when the housekeeping supervisor stopped by.

Better than expected
I have never done Vrbo before. The reviews were very helpful. This location was great. Good restaurants within walking distance and close to grocery shopping too. We went last week of august and it was not very busy. The place was clean and nicer than I expected. The pool was nice too. It is top floor corner unit overlooking pool. The view of ocean . I would definitely stay here again!

One of bed sheets had a stain on it. Sliding door needs to be worked on - very hard to open and close. Had an issue with the washer- did not spin water out. Very unhappy with Vrbo fee-way too high and will use someone else in the future

Great place with lots of room!
Just as advertised - beautiful space overlooking the gulf. We loved being on the top floor (no feet overhead). Short walk to the beach, great pool. The balcony might be the only place it falls short. The door was incredibly heavy, and the chairs out there were uncomfortable.
