Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Gulfside complex was a lot smaller that we had stayed at before so I wasn’t sure what to expect, but from the minute we pulled into the parking lot we were amazed! There was a lady outside (I wish I’d gotten her name) we asked her about the parking and she was so sweet and helpful. She told us she had lived there 23 years, she even offered to spot for us pulling the truck in. The “smaller complex” turned out to be a plus because we never had trouble finding open beach chairs/unbrellas (the condo comes with free beach service) and the pool was pretty much always empty! And oh that pool! The rooftop pool was amazing! You look right out into the ocean from the pool, and we spent a lot of time up there since we had kinda yucky weather and double red flags on the beach during most of our stay! It’s further down the beach than we are used to, so not really anything in walking distance, but the location had its advantages because it was a lot less crowded and that made the traffic situation easier! I have no complaints and I’ve already been recommending this unit to my friends! Also, if you love fresh seafood, eat at The Shack. There were 4 adults that stayed and we had plenty of room. The balcony had a beautiful view, we spent alot of time out there, but also watched movies together in the living room. I could go on and on lol. A good time was had by all and I highly recommend this unit!!!

Great Location

The location was great, the rental was spacious. The rooftop pool was wonderful. Our unit had a Murphy bed which was a big hit with the kids. The check-in and out process was simple and hassle free. The only mild inconveniences at the time of our visit was the elevator not working for a short time, and the smell of our rental when we first arrived. The staff was responsive and friendly. Overall a great time!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very clean and the furniture was very comfortable. Beds are wonderful. The living area pictures are not correct. There is a new couch but there is not a loveseat. That made for limited seating for our party of four. There are only 2 chairs on the balcony so limited seating there also. Nicely updated bathrooms, except counter in master bath. Kitchen has not been updated but appliances were new. Nice set of cookware available, but there is not a crockpot. Cooking utensils provided were just the basics, but adequate.

Honest Review

This is a spacious, clean and mostly up to date condo. It's in a great location and bed is comfortable. The bathrooms are very nice and pool is beautiful with great view. The cons for my family: Kitchen is poorly stocked. There are no pitchers to make tea or any beverage by the gallon. The pots and pans are horrible. Very few measuring tools. The slide out mechanism for the trash can was not fastened to the cabinet. It kept falling into floor. The mattress is comfortable but the bedding is hospital bed grade. The sheets are like paper and the comforter has no weight to it. Luckily we bring our own blanket but will bring sheets if we stay again. The big rug in living room needs to be replaced or shampooed regularly. The unit was very clean except for this item. It is very dirty and needs attention. The rooftop pool is gorgeous and so is the view. The downside to the pool is that it appears to be the local watering hole for the seagulls. In 1 day they had left poop and feathers all around the pool. Honestly for the price I think it should have just a touch more of home to it. Not saying it's a bad unit because it's not. Not saying we wouldn't book it again. Just buy some decent bedding and stock the kitchen so people can cook some basic things and make tea or Kool aid.

Very nice condo and location!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was a very nice condo and location but had a few problems with my stay! The pool was closed for 3 days due to painting which really sucked. Then the elevator didn’t work off and on the whole stay. I have severe back problems and had to climb stairs almost daily! Other than that I guess would’ve been very nice. For the price I was very unsatisfied!

All great except-

The place was perfect location and as described. Note - bring ice if you’d like to go straight to beach. Plumbing pipes and couch both make crazy noises, all the time. Our only real issue was no one told us the pool was under construction during our visit. We were extremely disappointed no one notified us so we could look at other options or offered to offset some of the costs for an amenity we picked location for. (Roof pool vs those that sun is blocked out by building). I couldn’t imagine if kids had been with us. As disappointed as we were, I couldn’t even fathom how disappointed kids would be. The contractors blocked a lot of parking spots unnecessarily but luckily we got one each day.

Great location and would stay again

The location is great but the building is a little worn especially the elevator buttons that need fixed because sometimes they don't work.The roof top pool was pretty cool.Didnt swim but went up to enjoy the views. Arrived Christmas Eve and the door code did not work.Called the emergency number and was called back immediately and the lady was very nice and fixed it quickly.The condo was really nice despite a few dust bunnies but was not something major to us.The bedroom was nice and couch was comfortable and even pull out wasn't bad.Nice big TV and plenty of seating.The balcony had a great view but could smell people smoking pot daily.Only major problem I had was there was no cleaning products.They had packet of dishwasher soap and for washing clothes.But nothing to clean counter or the toilet.I knew about paper towels and brought my own along with extra toilet paper.The kitchen also had nothing like salt pepper or coffee filters which I was aware of.A bottle of lysol would have been nice. Bedroom had a huge rug rolled up and some trim along the wall that should have been removed but wasn't a big deal. The master bath was ok only problem was the lighting was dim. The other bathroom was nice. The kitchen has newer appliances but the ice machine made noise. Plenty of silverware but no sharp knives to cut or peel anything. I would stay here again even though there was a few negative things.
