Comfortable
Don’t get me wrong we had a good time and made the best of our stay. Very cute condo. I had a few issues. It was supposed to accommodate 6. There were no sheets, blankets, nothing for the pull out couch that was so uncomfortable!

Beachy Getaway
We've been coming to the area for several years now, and this location was one of our favorites. The unit was fresh, clean, with all the amenities you would need for a beach vacation. Kristin was great to work with and very responsive when we needed. Parking was very convenient, and you really are steps to the pool and the beach. This unit in particular is also right above the laundry, which was handy. We've had friends stay at Gulf Winds in other units before and it's easy to see why.

Location was great plenty of restaurants within walking distance
and short walk to the beach
Met so many wonderful people who were also renting at the complex.
Although the swimming pool which we have access to had a lot of people who owned their units at this complex and they were not at all willing to include us in their group which was ok because there were plenty of other super nice people who were renting like we were and they were wonderful

Location location!
We loved upham beach and being able to easily walk to everything we needed! The condo was well equipped with everything including nice beach chairs maybe not the fanciest place we have ever stayed but location and comfort of the condo made it amazing! Great customer service from the owners as well. We definitely plan to return and this was by far our favorite family beach vacay and we have been on many. Thanks for letting us stay!

Great stay!
We really enjoyed our time at this property. Everything was clean, lots of towels and items for the beach, and plenty of room for 4 adults to stay comfortably. Location is incredible- right by a beautiful section of the beach with lots of restaurants around. We really loved it and would go back in a heartbeat.

Weekend Getaway
Had a nice weekend getaway with my friends from chilly Syracuse this spring! We enjoyed the mellow area, hour and a half trip to the manatees in Crystal River, the beach, Jimmy B’s live music bar and relaxing St. Pete Beach atmosphere.
Very family friendly area. Some partying noises Friday and Saturday nights in the other condos (expected.) Overall had a great time!

Great time at St. Pete Beach!
The owner was extremely easy to get ahold of and handled concerns promptly. The property was clean and had lots of extras for the beach, which was nice. We did forget laundry and dish detergent, so make sure to pick those up if you'll need them. Overall the beach, location and amenities were great!!!
