A factual review
First off I've never ever left a negative review. Let me list the good and bad and you can make decisions off that. The good -view can't be beat, proximity to the beach, nice pool, short walk to restaurants, host responded to my inboxes.The bad -microwave above stove doesn't work (I missed this on someone else's review) on day 2 opened utensil drawers to find mice droppings. Day three woke up to two huge roaches in the hallway flipped on its back but still alive. Dirty bandaid in guest bed sheets, upon arrival all the towels were dirty in a laundry basket, the host promptly came and picked them up to wash them for us. Overall I couldn't bare to make breakfast on my last day after seeing the roaches.i promise I'm not pickey I know its not a luxury place. I chose it specifically for the view and Beach proximity of which were important factors to me. I plan on leaving all of our bags outside my home while I bring things in to laundry and wash out bags outside because I'm scared of bringing home roaches. I understand that it's older.out dated.but the ingestions just were gross. Owner has mentioned tefunding the cleaning fee. I feel bad leaving a negative review but I wld have chosen another place if I had known.these things are fixable if owner cares to fix them. The good,

Great location right on the beach!
We really enjoyed our stay! The home is right on the beach and they provided the beach chairs we needed. There are two other units that had visitors while we were here and while we could hear chairs moving above us, it really was not a bother as you will want to spend as much time on the beach as you can. Such gorgeous views of the ocean as well from the main bedroom and balcony. The unit definitely is outdated and needs to be updated, especially the main bathroom but it was fine for our long weekend stay. The wifi did go out on our first night there but the owner was very quick to respond to our messages and get someone out there and fix it the next morning super quickly. The home is in a great location- we flew in from Michigan and didn't have a rental car so we walked the beach to where we needed to go. It is very close to some great local restaurants. The pool was nice but some of the furniture out there was starting to get beaten up a bit and needed to be replaced. Overall great stay and we had a great vacation- the beach is obviously the best part!

We had no trouble checking in! Once we opened the door it was like being in beach heaven! Very spacious unit plenty of room. The beach view from the deck was gorgeous! So easy walking down the stairs and straight out onto the beach! Would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful beach getaway!

Great view
The views were perfect of the Gulf and inner coastal waters. The condo was spacious with a nice chair and couch. For the price point it was a great value. We lucked out and there was no one else in the other units for most of our stay so it was nice and quiet. There is definitely room for some improvements but over all we were very happy with our stay.

Awesome Beach Vacation
My wife and I wanted a relaxing beach vacation and this house delivered that and more! From the back deck you have a beautiful view of the beach, the gulf and the sunset. From the front deck you can watch the sunrise and watch small boats passing through the channel. The house was great, too! Exactly what we were looking for. We already plan to book again.

What a wonderful little place!!
We loved our 2 BR unit!! We just got away for a long weekend and it was perfect. Just how we like it. It was clean and comfortable. Some might think updates are needed but we loved it- lots of that Florida charm you don’t see too often anymore. The colors were so beachy. We were right on the beach with our own spiral staircase down. There was a pool but it was a little chilly in November to swim. Otherwise our weather was perfect. The kitchen had everything we needed. The whole place has an interesting layout and was actually more room than we needed. The company was very prompt in answering our questions and were very accommodating. I would love to return to this property if we are able. So perfectly quiet and serene. ONE ISSUE- take the top apt because we did hear footsteps overhead continuously. I know that is something that can’t be fixed but if we were staying more than weekend I think it would have driven us crazy. Especially since the top unit is a 3 BR. That’s a lot of walking around. But I thank the owners and managing company for such a beautiful space to enjoy a quiet beach. Thank you so much⛱️☀️ Amy and Kevin

Wonderful beachside property
Property was clean and as described. While it’s a bit dated it’s still very Florida and quaint. View from the deck was beautiful and being a smaller building and being only 1 of 3 guests it was quiet and comfortable. Only complaint (as some others have said) is that you can hear every step taken by those in the larger family unit on top floor so if someone with little kids in in there you can expect running footstep noises early in the morning.

Just as it says, nice place!!
From the front balcony amazing ocean view, from the back balcony a nice peaceful bay view. My sister and I was very pleased with this roomy #2 Suite. Pool area was very inviting and relaxing. Just a few steps to the beach was fantastic! The only thing I found that needed attention was in the smaller bathroom . . . the toilet paper holder was very loose on one side and could have been easily knocked or pulled off. Having chairs and towels for the beach was nice. For the kiddos there were some beach toys. Only 1 boogie board though- having 2 would have been super!! I would absolutely stay here again!!.

This property was alot of fun to stay in! We are big time cookers, so it would have been nice to have more updated and healthy options for cookware and overall kitchen items, but other than that this property is one I will definitely use again as friends come to visit. The owner was very responsive and lots of fun toys to play with on the bottom floor, and you cannot beat that view! It is also in a prime location and plenty of stuff to do within walking or short driving distance!

Amazing views and location
This was our first time to the gulf coast and we will be back. I want to book this entire house for my whole extended family next time. It’s older, so don’t go expecting white farmhouse clean lines. It’s the quintessential beach house and is perfect. Basically private pool and beach, beach toys available, boogie boards and kayaks for the kids, life vests (a puddle jumper would be a nice addition), beach towels, hair dryer, linens and towels. We flew so it was nice everything was included. It would’ve been nice to have had some laundry soap already in the apartment, but no big deal to grab some at the store. Some of the pillows could use replacing but otherwise the beds were comfortable! The back deck was amazing for coffee drinking and Yahtzee playing. We had a blast and will certainly be back.
