Great location beachfront!

We love staying at Gulf Winds. It was busier than it had been in the past, but we could still get a great spot on the beach each day. We also loved being able to walk to Peg Leg Pete’s. The condo was exactly what we needed. The only negative that needs attention is the brightness of the bedroom at night in the downstairs bedroom. A set of blinds behind the curtains would be a great addition.

Excellent location, condo needs attention

Perfect location, easy parking, amazing access to the beach, quiet and deck matches the pictures and views! We had a mixup on some cleaning items but it was quickly fixed by Lisa, who cleans the condo and was extremely helpful and responsive. The owner has some work to do on the interior to bring this back to the luxurious penthouse status. The bed on the main floor is falling apart, both the mattress and the headboard. The light outside the bedroom window is still there, the curtain needs to be moved up to help minimize it. By night 2, we all slept upstairs as the mattress had left our backs in bad shape. The # of blankets and towels is sparse for the size of the property if you’re using more than the 2 beds, and the pull out couch mattress was unusable due to prior guests stains on it. Lightbulbs and clocks didn’t work (out of batteries) so just simple things that are easy to fix to bring this back to penthouse status. As rental owners ourselves, we would want to know to get these fixed and communicated that directly to the owner. We would definitely stay here again with these things updated or fixed!

Beautiful beach front location

We really enjoyed our stay and loved watching the ocean, sunrises and sunsets from the balcony. Only drawback was not having a coffee pot brewer. We made the tea kettle work for our needs. Would definitely recommend the property.

Great Location and Beautiful Beach

We stayed Sunday to Friday and we had a great time. We had plenty of space to enjoy the beach without encroaching neighbors. The only issue we encountered was some spotty elevator downtime. There are starwells on either end of the building, so that mitigated the inconvenience. The hosts were very gracious and responsive! We would stay here again.
