Great location
Great location close to everything! There was some construction on the balcony so we were unable to use that area, but we’re aware of it before we checked in. Also, we really miss the small business craft areas inside the condo common area.

Beautiful condo, great location
Love Gulf Place, so many things to do. Nice pool, can walk to restaurants and shops. Beautifully decorated condo, everything was new! Comfortable beds. Some construction on site, but was not bothersome at all. Master bedroom had excessive noise when upstairs condo flushed their toilet, this building tends to have a little more noise between units.
