Family trip
This property was so nice! The hosts did check ins every day through out trip to ensure everything was going smoothly and was available to answer any questions. The place was clean and decorated beautifully. The kids asked multiple times if we could stay forever. The pools were great but the balcony was our favorite. So many great memories were made here. Thank you for sharing your home with us. Highly recommend 10/10.

Lovely beach getaway!
This property has all of the things needed for a relaxing beach vacation. It is well kept with lots of amenities. The owners did an amazing job communicating with us to ensure a great time. We appreciate all of the "extras" that are there like beach chairs, towels, wagon, etc. I would caution that there is a LOT of walking as the property is quite large (from elevators to pools to beach and so on).

Great Family Getaway!
We were very happy with the stay at Sky High Beach Vibes! Traveling with a family of 5, two adults and three kids (5, 2, 2) the setup and amenities were perfect for us for the 5 days we spent in PCB. The only challenge for us while we were there was how busy the elevators were at certain times, which Stacy and Scott note in all of their materials. It really is true, and being on the 17th floor, just do your best to be patient and plan on using the elevators sparingly if possible.Beyond that, the property was clean, inviting and totally fit our needs and Stacy and Scott were wonderful throughout, giving us great advice on good family places to check out in PCB, making sure we had what we needed while we were there and being very clear on the needs for checkout. Overall, they were among the best hosts I've ever dealt with through one of these platforms and would highly recommend them and their awesome condo for your trip to PCB!

This condo is a 10/10! Owners are always available for any questions. Check in was a breeze. Once you print parking pass you are good do go. The condo is a cozy, homey, condo that had everything we could ever need for our family. The location was perfect. The beach was a close walk, restaurants were close and delicious, and the convenience of having Walmart nearby was awesome. We even had our groceries delivered the first day! I definitely would recommend this to anyone that is wanting a beach vacation! The coffee on the patio in the morning watching the sunrise was PERFECTION!

Home away from home
Me and my husband and three children (ages 10,8,7) stayed her during off season. When we got here we immediately wanted to hit the beach and found that the place comes with everything you need or may have forgotten to pack. Scott and Stacey also had a welcome basket with dish soap and laundry detergent along with other things you would forget to bring or otherwise have to go buy. Also when we opened the cabinets we found kid cups for our three little ones. We had family staying in another unit by different hosts and we could not stop talking about the differences we were experiencing in our stays. We didn’t have to run to the store for anything but food but they had to run out the first night just to do dishes.
Most importantly when we came back for the night with our kids, we felt nothing less than safe and secure. Thank you Scott and Stacy!

Excellent condo!
I would 100% stay at this condo again. Check in was simple, it was VERY clean, in a great location, and very well stocked. The owners, Scott and Stacy, were in contact with us before our stay to make sure the check-in process went smoothly. Scott was also in constant contact with us throughout the week. The Wharf had great amenities. We found that using the public beach access 32 and 33 was easier than using the hotel's beach access. Our family had a great time and we would definitely stay again!

Great condo
The condo was great and had everything as advertised. We didn't use the beach access next to Pineapple Willys, it was easier and less crowded to go to beach access 34 (no stairs for beach entry either) and they had chairs/umbrellas for rent at the beach. There is also a rinse off place in that area so that we didnt have to go all the way to the main pool area. We used the wagon, chairs and beach toys tjat were provided. The owners really made sure you were all set for a vacation! At the property there were several restaurants. Each pool was easily accesible. Our only complaint was an odor in the bathroom most likely from previous guests. We were able to rid of it with some lysol. Other than that the condo was clean and organized.

We loved staying in this condo it felt like a home away from home. Love the view from the balcony. Everything you need to get started on your stay was there to help ease the first day. The condo was very clean!
Only thing I wish was that service dogs were allowed, and check in time was sooner. But looking around the check in time is about the same as others. I just feel like we pay for a night that we don’t get to enjoy a whole day just paying extra for a night that you’re only able to check in at 4. By then your day is over almost.

Best Condo in LTW!
Highly recommended. We have visited LTW for 5 vacations now and the condo they call Sky High Beach Vibes is our favorite and most memorable. Completely clean and exactly like the pictures, it is a beautiful property. Unlike some other condos we have stayed in, this place has really nice, high-end furnishings. We also had a welcome basket waiting for us, with soap, detergent, and even muffin mix. And the kitchen does have a muffin pan. Also, a nice griddle which is perfect for French toast. The owners are also very responsive to questions. We got locked out and didn't know what to do, so I sent them a message and got an immediate response. They called maintenance and got us going. Thank you!

Warm, welcoming and wonderful location
We were traveling for a baseball tournament with our two sons. The condo’s location was a short minute trip to the sport complex, a 1 minute walk to the beach and a short drive to everywhere we wanted to be. Our hosts were absolutely wonderful. Our flight was delayed and they were able to walk us through late arrival and quick to respond to all questions. They were so kind and sweet. They offered us a few extra hours the day we left and what a kind gesture.
The condo was very clean, had so many extras to make the stay enjoyable and the beds were very comfortable. There was a beach wagon, sand mat and chairs we used as well as beach towels. We never had an issue and would absolutely stay again. Our stay couldn’t have been better
