Not as nice as other units
We have visited and stayed in a couple different units at Top of the Gulf. This one was dirtier and overall seemed more run-down than others we have stayed in before. Love the location. Will be going back. Just not at this unit.

The place was really, really dirty.
It’s cute but it was so dirty. We spent the first hour of our arrival just cleaning. The floors hadn’t been swept and it was really sandy.

824 Unit
This unit has black mold on ceiling and cloth furniture. Very outdated and walls are mushy with moisture. The Top of Gulf has some nice units, but this one was a dump.

Good spot for a short stay
Property was advertised. Room was quite cramped but we managed. Two adults and a three year old. Beach is close and good view out of the window of beach and city. There is not a balcony but there are plenty of common spaces. We only stayed two nights and that was long enough for the space....apt is dated and could use a sprucing up so it is not luxury but if you want sand, water, and pool for a reasonable rate and you don't mind squeezing in...the bathroom is tiny...
