Second visit
This was our second visit, and we love this property. It is clean and spacious. The walk to the beach is short and easy, and the beach is never over crowded. We also like the pool. The addition of a golf cart was enjoyed by all.

Family Vacation
Our stay was wonderful at this property and the hosts were extremely accommodating and responsive to our needs. The condo is very spacious and was very comfortable for our family of eight. We had plenty of room! The master bathroom’s double shower was fabulous for showering two small boys simultaneously after a long day at the beach. Our family also loved the arcade game table, boxed games, and beach toys, and proximity to all pools, corn hole, shuffle board, and the beach. The decor was lovely and the kitchen was very well equipped. We did experience a problem with the king bedroom sheets looking unchanged and feeling gritty the night we arrived. We slept on the top cover our first night. The hostess was extremely responsive the next morning when I corresponded and said this was not acceptable and offered to send the cleaning folks back. I chose to wash the sheets myself and we had a clean fresh bed that evening. A damp beach towel was found in the beach closet downstairs that may also have been overlooked by cleaning staff. The hosts were extremely friendly and prompt to make a repair due to a toilet issue. Alison and her husband are great! Lastly, I will mention there is no “dreamy view” of the gulf from the balcony, but we did enjoy the view of Gulf Place. We come here yearly, but this was our first stay with a large group and at Alison’s condo. We will definitely return to this home if our larger group gathers again. THANK YOU for a happy, and very memorable vacation!

Excellent beach vacation
The place was spacious, clean, and less than a 5 minute safe walk to the beach. Having a room to store all the beach chairs, toys, etc right when you walk inside is a game changer for a beach vacation. Alison was a phenomenal host. She was responsive and took care of anything I brought up immediately. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect Spot on 30A
Island Breeze was the perfect spot for our family vacation! We were a family of 6 (grandparents, parents, and a 4 and 2 year old) and we all had our own space. My girls LOVED the bunk beds, they were just old enough to be able to sleep in them. We were right next door in the secondary bedroom and I loved having the king bed and attached bathroom. The grandparents stayed down the hall in the primary bedroom and raved about the giant shower.
The townhouse was clean and had everything we needed. There are a lot of stairs, so just be prepared for that! Beach chairs, floats, etc were provided which was a nice perk. There is only a Keurig coffee maker so come prepared with k-cups!
The location is perfect, right across from the pool and a short walk to the beach. We loved being able to walk and get an afternoon coffee at the nearby shops. We never felt like we needed a golf cart or anything. Beach access is tricky right now with a lot of areas being blocked off for private access. We walked down to the public beach access at Ed Walline which was nice because there was a ramp if you have a wagon or stroller, showers, parking, and restrooms.
Publix and Walmart are just a quick 10 minute drive from the townhouse which was nice for making a grocery run. There are so many restaurants and shops to walk to and the rest of 30A is easily accessible by car (although parking can be tricky).
We would absolutely stay here again. Gulf Place is amazing!
