The property is as featured in the pictures in the listing. It is small but perfect for the two of us. It is right on the beach and we enjoyed sitting on the balcony on the cooler days.

Great condo
We loved the view from the balcony. The condo was well equipped with everything we needed. The only negative I have is the condo is on the 2nd floor next to elevators, so the noises from people grilling and getting on elevators is very very loud.

It was very nice. Convenient to the beach and restaurants. Down side it it’s super close to the elevator so it’s a little noisy.

The condo had everything we needed! You do need to bring your own supplies. The location could not be more perfect. We never had to go anywhere in our car. Hangout next door, Desoto Seafood couple of blocks away, Bahama Bobs next door. Souvenir City couple of blocks away! The only downside is the patio is not very private. Loved it here.

Great rental for two. Second floor, overlooking Gulf. Two minor problems but Celebrity Vacations host, Kelly, took care of immediately. We did not realize elevators were directly across from unit. Can be noisy and distracting late at night. Would visit again, but maybe further down the hall. Overall 4.5
