Book it!

We had such a good trip. The condo is in a great location, the pool deck has a perfect beach view (we spent more time there than on the actual beach), and our balcony was an amazing view! Looked just like the pictures. The host was very responsive and kind. The owner of the building has the cutest dog ever... shoutout to Lucky.

Cousins reconnect

The property is very beautiful and it is in a perfect location. The balcony and ocean view was perfect. The only downside was the lack of products such as toilet paper, paper towels, and trash bags. The bathtubs and showers seriously need upgrading. Our host was amazing and responded quickly to my text. I would definitely recommend this Property again.

Great location

Exceptional location! We had a mishap with one of the beds the first night but after one call, they fixed it the next morning. The owners were extremely nice & helpful. The only complaint is the floors were filthy. You couldn’t see it but after my niece ran barefoot in there the first 10 minutes, her feet were black.

Nice area, nice condo, but not far from needing to be updated.

All went well. Particularly like the size of the building, only 32 units which means no long waits on elevator, no crowd at pool, and fewer people trying to claim their “space” in front of the condo on the beach. Also did not have any parking space issues. Great location, close to HangOut, but not too close if you no what I mean. The teenagers loved it!

Amazing view and location!

Wonderful VERY spacious three bed three full bath condo on the top floor. Absolutely stunning views of the ocean front from the large balcony!! Kitchen is extremely well equipped, all of the beds were very comfortable, and the space was immaculately clean at check-in. Just a short elevator ride down and you are directly on the beach- there is also a lovely beachfront pool. the condo is exactly as pictured and if possible as even more spacious in person. Walking distance to tons of places to eat and short driving distance for lots of gulf coast entertainment. I would highly recommend and would absolutely stay here again – great space and an excellent value for the price!!

Spring Break getaway

Our condo stay was comfortable and roomy for our group. The unit itself could definitely benefit from some updates in the bathroom. The master shower handle was unattached from the wall and difficult to shut off. There was great water pressure though! The appliances were very outdated. One of the burners on the stove top was just hanging and unusable. The tray below was greasy and would produce smoke when the burner was in use. The view was beautiful from the balcony. Also, the owner was quick to respond to any questions and concerns we had.

Nice but needs a few upgrades!!

The unit was nice with a few exceptions, the showers all dropped when shut off, the beds had sand in them as if they hadn’t been changed and the twin beds creaked so bad it was hard to sleep. Plus you had to pay a fee for cleaning and still pull the sheets off the bed and pile towels in the hall. Overall it was a good experience with those few things that need addressed.

Tropical Winds 804

We enjoyed our stay at Tropical Winds unit 804. It was clean and very comfortable. The kitchen had all we needed to cook meals. The balcony was spacious and the view overlooked the ocean without obstruction. The only issue we had was the operation of bathtub faucets. There was a knob to turn water on/off and a temperature knob behind it. It took us some time to learn to operate it without scalding ourselves. I would suggest replacing the faucets with regular ones. Otherwise it was very comfortable and we would return to the unit.

Beware of beach!

We have small children with us so intended to put up a canopy. The beach behind this condo is very small and you cannot put up canopies above a certain size. So we literally had a canopy we could not use! We put up about six big umbrellas which took up more space. Big drop off getting to the water so if you have knee problems or issues walking this is not the place for you. Condo is ok and was reasonably priced. So if you just need an ok condo, this is it.
