Excellent Stay

The condo is amazing. Everything is full sized, works properly, clean, and nice. The place is extremely comfy and no shortcuts were taken. I wish I had another week to stay here. If you are thinking about booking this place think no more. It’s a win.

This property was extremely well kept. The bed was comfortable and there were plenty of blankets and pillows. The location was a short walk from the beach, which we enjoyed greatly. The condo was well stocked with anything we might’ve needed during our stay. I would definitely stay again.

Nice condo

The location is close to everything you might want/need. Pool and grounds were well-kept. Plenty of parking. Well stocked kitchen; plenty of dishes, silverware, pots and pans. Lots of good reading materials about the area. The couch is not comfortable to sit on. Some of the plastic storage containers for leftovers had bits of food still on them. Probably won’t stay here again, but only because there’s no elevator.

Rainy Lone Star Wknd

It was a bit hard to Maneuver thru the complex to find our building… (#5) No Clear Signs were visible… however we located it Finally, and it was easy after that. Loved the condo and the beach view was beautiful! The rain kept us in all day Saturday but it was nice to have plenty of TV options!

Perfect long weekend getaway

Tiki Time was absolutely perfect For the celebration of my girlfriend’s birthday! The condo is perfectly located within the island! amenities were wonderful at the condo and the beach was directly across the road! Only thing I would recommend would be to bring your own beach chairs. While they’re available to rent at the beach, it would be nice if they were provided at the condo. I would definitely go back and recommend to anyone.

Mixed review

The good…it’s a nice, clean place and convenient location. The property is also well-kept with 2 pools and a fitness center. The bad…property owner did not forward any check-in details until after we arrived on site. A text message sent 3 days beforehand was not returned and text messages on the day of check-in were returned an hour after they were sent. The unit was also lacking some basic necessities like soap and shampoo in the bathroom and we were provided 2 coffee pods for a 4-day stay and no cream or sugar. TV in bedroom also did not work. We were told to swap out batteries in remote but that did not work either. Meanwhile, we had absolutely no issues with the other unit we rented in the same complex and communication with that property manager was much better.

Ideal Location, Very Clean, Easy Communication

This was our second time staying here and it has been perfect both times. We could see the beach from the balcony and there’s a signaled crosswalk for crossing Seawall Blvd at the corner of the property. Plus the owner is quick to respond if you have any questions. Really ideal!

Wonderful property!

I couldn’t ask for a better place to stay! Kat has stocked this place with everything you could need. The wagon full of beach toys, body board, chairs, cooler and ice packs were so nice to be able to take to the beach. Our young children loved the pools so much. The unit was clean, the check in process was simple and the property was wonderful overall. We can’t wait to stay here again!

Tiki Time…nothing short of spectacular

Tiki Time is absolutely wonderful. The pictures do not do justice to this unit. We have stayed in several different units at The Dawn and this one has just become our favorite by far. The location within the Dawn is fabulous giving you a view of the first pool and the beach from the balcony. It is well cared for and there aren’t any blemishes from careless usage. It is very tastefully decorated and the furnishings are comfortable. The kitchen has everything you need, right down to ample glassware. I also want to give a special shout out to Kat. She is a very organized hostess and has thought of tiny details that really puts this one in a different class. She has actual decent bathroom tissue and quality paper towels provided. Not the typical ineffectual products that is the norm. I know this sounds insignificant, but I really appreciated it. She was attentive without being obtrusive, checking in to make sure everything was going well. The bed is a little on the firm side but comfortable. My husband has back issues, so this is our preference. We couldn’t have been more pleased with our stay and are looking forward to a return visit!
