Spur of the moment getaway!

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: We decided last minute to take a trip to the Gulf. We always prefer staying on Thomas Dr end and have frequently stayed at either Mariner West or East. We like the older smaller type family properties. Unit 307 did not disappoint. It was a very nice unit with wonderful updates where needed. Had everything we needed for our family of 4 including beach supplies. Mariner West is a very well maintained property with beautiful grounds and great proximity to the beach. Looking forward to staying again in the future!

Best place to stay at PCB if you want to relax

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed at the Mariner West for over 25 years. You just can’t beat it. We like the Thomas Drive area because it is not crowded like other areas. You have plenty of room on the beach and overall just a great place. We stayed in condo 307 this year and it was great. The a/c is great in this unit!

Great spot by the beach

We really enjoyed this condo. The manager contacted us before checkin to let us know how to get in, and there were printed instructions waiting for us. The whole experience was very easy. The location itself was fantastic. A private entrance to the beach, along with a very nice pool. The location was close to to the state park as well as all the places we wanted to eat. The condo was clean and spacious, no issues at all while we there. For the 2 of us it was fantastic. The back deck overlooking the ocean was the cherry on top. We will definitely stay at this property again.

Surprised

We had a great time at a surprising location. We booked last minute and expected less quality and poor location. We were pleasantly surprised on all levels. Great stay and best experience we’ve had in PCB.

Clean. Not overcrowded. Right on the beach!

I purposely look for properties that are smaller to avoid large crowds. This condo was perfect for our long weekend. Comfortable beds and a nice size living room with a perfect view were exactly what we were hoping for. We would happily stay here again.

A lovely stay

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: We really enjoyed this condo. It is much nicer than it appears in the photos. It is decorated nicely and is very comfortable. Our favorite spot was in the pretty rockers on the balcony. The views from the balcony of the gulf and the well kept property are just lovely. Everything here is kept clean and we'll tended. The condo was clean and fresh. The kitchen is outdated yet quite functional. We appreciated having two nice bathrooms to use and a private laundry room. The bedroom was nicely decorated but I think The beds were double not queen sized, but were comfortable. The management was always helpFul and friendly. The Mariner is a gem particularly for people who prefer low density properties. The other guests seem to value the Mariner and tend to be return guests like us. I would recommend this lovely spacious unit to others.

Vacation family get togather

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Owners need to work on kitchen supplies. Their dishes, utensils, etc., look like they piecemeal picked up junk at garage sales or thrift stores.They also need to update photos. My brothers had nicer kitchen supplies. Would rent a different condo if I decide to come back.
