Overall great place to vacation

Property felt nice relaxing and clean.absolutely love the location. The only problem is that we could not park on the right floor at our reserved spot or get into the downstairs door to the elevators because they gave us the wrong code. It was hard to get to our room for the first couple of days as well as bring our luggage up the flight of stairs.

Stay at the wharf

317 is a gorgeous condo. Great location. Huge balcony on the marina. The kids loved the Oasis with pool & lazy river. Family friendly activities & shopping in the evenings. Good restaurants without having to leave the property. We were I town for softball tournament & played at Foley so it worked great for us!!!

Excellent location and beautiful condo

If you're planning on attending an event at The Wharf this is the place to stay. The condo was immaculate, not sure I've seen such a clean facility before. The view is spectacular, it may not be beach front but we weren't there for the beach, just the entertainment. Plenty of bars, restaurants, and shopping literally within 5 minutes of walking out the door. Surprisingly the craziness downstairs quiets down at a reasonable hour. Unfortunately we missed out on the lazy river and pool area, just ran out of time. My only negative comment is from the viewpoint if I were the condo owner. If I paid that much for such an amazing condo I'd expect to have a reserved, covered parking spot, that seemed kind of odd but the fault of the builder/management company and not this listing. Ultimately, highly recommend staying here, you won't be disappointed.

Spacious, nice, exactly what I expected

I read the reviews before we booked & thought…I can deal with those things. Yes, a curtain was hanging, the ice maker broken but NOTHING that was a big deal. There was ice in the freezer. Some people are just more picky than others. We had a great time! Huge back porch, the rooms were at different ends of condo, so that was nice & private with two couples there. Grill fired up easy, bathtub in master was perfect for our 2 year old & I felt at home while I was there. You will also be on the 3rd floor which is a blessing because you walk straight over from assigned parking to your room. No need for elevator if you park in assigned parking. You have a great view of laser light show at Wharf from front balcony area. I’d stay there again for sure.

Enjoyed :)

Property manager was very responsive with questions. We enjoyed our stay! The only cons were that the property was not as clean as I would have liked if it was mine… toothpaste on bathroom walls…bedroom trash wasn’t emptied…. Deodorant lid was shoved down master sink drain….chips under the couch and socks under the dresser in guest room…. Jets didn’t work in master bath, no dish rag was left for us to do dishes with, there are no pot holders in the kitchen and no tv’s in either bedroom so the kids made pallets in the living room at night.

Wharf vs Beach side Condo

MS O Wharf area very nice. However, we would rather Drive/Uber to the area from a place with a close all day pool. Did not enjoy driving to pool everyday and not being able to enjoy all our own food and drink we prepared to bring. Also would rather have private beach/Bay access area close by. Condo was not stocked with some necessities needed. No blender, blow dryer, ice bucket, wine opener, or mixer. Ice maker broken! Go figure!!! Bath towels were very thin and small. Balcony furnishing filthy dirty. Drapes falling off rods in master and living area. Found peeled nuts under bed. I mean really!!! Vacuum cleaners reach under beds. GREAT WORKING A/C, FRIDGE, WINE COOLER AND OVEN. We are constructive criticizers and hope the next renters have a bit better info and experience. Ms J

Definitely Stay Again, It was SO NICE!

Let me lead with this, YES, we would definitely stay again and have already recommended it to other family members. If you are like me, I read review after review and thoroughly scout out a place before booking. I hope to help anyone with questions or concerns. This was a very impromptu trip with my 4 member family. Our kids are pre-teens and had no trouble sharing a room, so this 2 bed/2 bath worked for us. I will list the PROS and CONS, and please keep in mind, this is our experience and our opinions. PROS: Close to the Elevator, The key pad entry was so nice not having to deal with a front desk person, It has an outdoor grill (we did not use it, but will next time), the Balcony is HUGE, Balcony had 2 sofas (my son loved this area!), washer and dryer in condo, The balcony view was impressive, (my son liked watching the yachts and barges go by), decor was very neutral tone and beach themed, THE POOL, Oh my goodness, the Pool Area was like a tropical Oasis- It was NOT crowded at all (we felt very safe and comfortable letting our kids wander around), HUGE Master Closet to hide all your mess, Provided extra blankets in the closets, there were family games in the pantry closet (we added a set of UNO cards), fresh bouquet of flowers were on the dining table, the A/C unit was fantastic (it kept up with HOT HOT days), the kitchen was nicely stocked with pots/pans etc... CONS: Ice Machine was Broken (no big deal), Battery was out in the big clock in the living room (My OCD let that bother me), Only 1 TV (I REALLY wish I had known this- there are NO TV's in the bedrooms), 2 small rolls of toilet paper that lasted 2 days, Not enough bath towels and rags (I washed a load every day), only 1 Dish Towel (aggravating), Smoke alarm broken in guest room and left laying on the dresser, the Mirror in the Guest room was not connected to the dresser and it made me very nervous with my kids, The Jet Tub jets in the Master Bath was broken, The dryer needed 2 cycles to thoroughly dry heavy laundry, only 1 dish washer tab was supplied along with 2 laundry powder packs (I brought my own anyway), The living room light fixture had 2 out of 3 light bulbs out. All in all, NONE of the cons were deal breakers. They were minor inconveniences, that need attention, but would not hinder me from booking again. I will say this in closing, THERE IS A LOT OF WALKING INVOLVED. If you have bad feet or knees, you are in for some pain, but it was worth every bit!

Very clean, great pool, and awesome location

We didn’t realize just how great the pool was until we got here. The room was clean and just what we needed. I stayed with my husband and our 3 year old daughter. We were about 4 miles from the beach but didn’t mind the drive. The wharf also had events every night just outside our door, which we enjoyed.

Fun p

We have stayed at The Wharf quite a few times and love the atmosphere. So much for both kids and adults to do. There were several things on this trip that were very disappointing (not deal breakers but not what we have been accustomed to at The Wharf). No tv’s in the bedrooms, the master bedroom mattress was uncomfortable, and the grill/gas line wasn’t functioning properly. On The morning of checkout we were getting our stuff together to check out at 11:00 when we got a knock on the door at 9:55. It was the cleaning service and she told me check out was at 10:00 not 11:00. So I panicked and asked for 5 minutes and we would be out. Even if checkout was 10:00, I have never had my door knocked on 5 minutes prior to checkout time! First and foremost, this can’t happen. Checkout time was supposed to be 11:00. I left the host a voicemail and haven’t heard back. The wharf is a beautiful place, lots of things to do and we enjoyed the sunsets and watching dolphins from the huge balcony. Condo was very clean and decorated really nice.
