Very cute place for a small family! My kids loved the many heated pools option for the colder days. Very easy walk/bike ride to the beach. Love the gated community. Communication with the owner was fast and efficient!!!

The resort itself was constantly being worked on, which was great (painting, mulching, etc.) but the unit itself was much older than expected. We are not picky and it served its purpose but we wouldn’t stay in this unit again due to needing a remodel (kitchen especially).

We enjoyed our stay! The condo is a lil smaller than expected, but if you’re only using it to eat and sleep like we did, you don’t need much more space anyways! Only thing that could have made it better is the bedroom could use some curtains. The lights outside are pretty bright even with the blinds closed so curtains would be helpful! But would still recommend even without Thanks for allowing us to stay and have a fun family beach weekend!

We really had a great time. This particular property was at yhe front of the complex so it was further away from the beach. But, still within walking distance. However, the location of the complex is very close to a lot of things in town. Making everything very accessible. It didn't take long to get to anywhere. Overall, we loved it.

Great Getaway!

We loved staying at Gulf Highlands! The condo was exactly as described in the listing, very cozy and comfortable for 2 of us. Just a short walk to the beach - beautiful white sand and very clean - and an easy drive to all sorts of restaurants and activities! The condo is at the front of the resort property so your view is the main road, and gate access codes are granted to 1 phone number so that may be tricky for larger groups. Overall, we would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful little condo

We had a wonderful stay! The only thing that i can say wasnt 100% perfect, was there was still sand in the sheets, so I'm not sure they were all washed, and the previous people left cinnamon rolls in the oven that we didnt discover until we preheated jt for dinner one night. Communication with the property owner was fast and easy. We would love to stay here again next year. Thank you 😊

Cozy Family Friendly Getaway

We loved staying here! The kids enjoyed the bunks and the convenience of the property was perfect for us. It was cozy, homey, and just right for the four of us. My only comment would be to have a notebook with the WiFi, gate codes, property map, etc handy for guests. Not totally necessary, but would be a cherry on top!
