Perfect place for some time away

This property provided great access to the Gulf. It is within walking distance of the pier. Also because of its proximity to the state park, it was less crowded than condos further west. Overall it was exactly what we needed

Great location with an accommodating household

The vacation home was small yet efficient. Beach access was great, and the pool was maintained well. The view of the beach from the balcony was great. We will definitely stay at this location again.

Short stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were very pleased with the condo. We would definitely stay here again. Only suggestion would be to make sure the lamps in living room work and update coffee pot to K-cup style.

No secure internet

If you are planning on doing work and logging into a private/ secure internet then this isn’t the place to stay. It is a great location and great views. I would suggest upgrading the patio furniture with anything but the plastic table and chairs.

Vacation

Ice maker took 24 hours to fill the tray. Sliding glass door did not lock. Overall was okay. Maybe look at chair rental company, paid $200 for chairs but sat far enough back that there were people setting up in front of us. Noticed two other companies had there's up closer so people could not block the ocean view

not as expected

There were dirty towels in the washing machine. There was a few dishes that were dirty in the cabinets. The TV in the living room was glitchy. The wifi did not work from the bunk beds or the bedroom. There was a lot of sand on the floors. It was so bad we cut our stay short and left after one night.

Somebody dropped the ball

We liked the unit itself .It was a little better than others we've stayed in at that building. We did have problems with the Wi-Fi coverage, lots of drop-offs and slow speed. Also, the balcony door lock is non-functional. But "somebody dropped the ball" the unit had not been serviced between tenants. It was dirty in numerous areas, the beds had not been changed, there were dirty towels in the bathroom, and the previous tenants parking tag was all that was available. We spent several hours arrival night getting these things corrected.
