Love this place! Indoor & Outdoor pools are awesome. Sitting on the dock in the back and watching the sunset every night is worth every second of it. Plus having a Whataburger for cheap & fast 24hr food nearby is a plus. It was our second time here and it was just as good as the first.

Stay was amazing! Condo amenities were perfect, location was great and price is unbeatable for what you get. Having the option of an indoor pool & outdoor pool was great, loved spending our evenings fishing off of the dock. Would stay again if in the area!

Really cute beach-themed condo. Nice view of water and street to entertain eyes from balcony. Also liked music from neighboring bar/restaurant patio on weekends. Enjoyed "dropping a line" from on-site boat docks each evening. Drive-on beaches are close and vast.

Cute Simple place

We were not able to check in until 4:15; a little bummed about that however, the property manager kept us informed the whole time. The apt was clean, bed was comfortable, and the ac worked great. The balcony view is of the Sonic drive-in. The pool was awesome and the view of the pool was great. Would stay here again.

great place for couples. Couldn’t get the stove to turn on so we ate out, but that was not an issue. Hot showers, comfy bed. Avoid holidays as young adults tend to flock here for the great low prices, but they do not always follow the quiet time of after 10 pm.

Great location, and overall a great place to stay! I do think the bathroom could have been cleaned a little better... There were hairs left in the shower, and on the floor. Not terrible but room for improvement. Kitchen was well-equipped too, which was a bonus. Host was great and very communicative!

Mid last century building. I’m sure it was great when first built. Shows its age. Parking underneath the building was great, being in the shade. The elevator is quite small but functional. The room felt a little damp but the dehumidifier kept going until it quit. The reservoir was full and I emptied it to have it run again. The a/c worked well and we enjoyed the cool temperatures. The entry door let quite a bit of hallway light in at night and the vertical blinds let outside light in. The Drive and Dive bar outside the window is noisy until 11 or so. The air wick plugin was empty but I didn’t see any refills. It is a good place for a couple to stay. I would stay again if I had to be in the area again.

Things to know negatives first there’s a THERES OTHER PARKING THE PARKING GARAGE THIS IS NOT FOR LARGE VEHICLES! No Wi-Fi, television is a little dated and small so don’t be a tv person. I fortunately am not so it didn’t hinder my experience of being able to open the door and take in the view from both sides of the canal! I would stay here again. I worked a lot but everyone here was friendly and courteous week and weekend. Great communication! CLEAN! friendly and soooooo peaceful adequate cleaning supplies and kitchen utensils!

Older building but condo was great.

I'll break it down into cons and pros: Cons: The building was built in the 1960s and definitely shows its age. This was not necessarily a "con" for my wife and I as we appreciated its character, but some may find it off-putting. The parking spot for the unit is very tight which will not pose a problem if you have a smaller car, but it was a tight fit for my Silverado. The majority of the building is not climate controlled, so be prepared. Pros: The condo itself is absolutely adorable. The decor screams late 20th Century which, again, my wife and I found very appealing. The owner provides a dehumidifier which is more than I can say for every other VRBO I have stayed in on the Gulf Coast, and it kept the room comfortable (just be prepared; you will have to empty the bucket multiple times a day. That's the Gulf Coast; is what it is). Owner was very open and communicative and answered all of our questions prompt and honestly. Would definitely stay here again.
