Spring Break Trip

We love Gulf Crest and have stayed in this building before. This condo was in a great location for our family and the views were great. The condo could use some regular maintenance and a bit better cleaning on the gorgeous patio and windows looking out at the view. We did enjoy our stay here and would look at staying here again in the future.

Very nice place to spend time with family. Only thing I found wrong was there was no ladder to get onto top bunk bed. We had fun. The location was great, away from the big crowds. Very secure place! I will be back next year.

Paula was great! We drove through the night and were able to check-in early. The condo was clean and spacious. Gulf Crest is a great place for families with both older children (we had 3 high school seniors) and younger. Lots of activities within walking distance and a Wal-Mart too. Beach is gorgeous.

Clean, pretty and comfortable!

We so enjoyed our stay here and we will be back again! The place was comfortable, nice living room furniture with a comfortable pull out sofa bed, all the linens we needed. Close to the parking lot and close to the beach- since it’s only the 3rd floor. Beautiful view of the beach from here too. Paula was quick to respond and worked with us on our schedule and moving dates last minute due to weather. She was wonderful!

Perfect area for a beautiful view of the ocean and pool!

We love staying at Gulf Crest!! The pool area is always clean and security watches for safe playing for families with children. This condo unit was a perfect location. The kitchen does need some updating like the stove is old so the cooktop burners either cooks too fast or too slow and the oven temp is off too. The laundry dryer is set to shut off every 57 seconds with no notes to get clothes dry. The floors could have been cleaner upon arrival. Other than these few things...it was a wonderful stay. We would stay again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Spent 4 days here in March and had an excellent experience. Clean, spacious, spectacular view, good pool and facilities. Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. 3rd floor is just right. Feels right on the beach without being so close that people can look in. Huge balcony.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved that we could park on the 3rd floor and walk across the short walkway to the room and no waiting on the elevator. It was a quick in and out. The view is great and you feel like you’re right on the beach. The beach is close and was not crowded because the mega developments are further away. We found it convenient to drive to everything we wanted with nothing being more than 20 minutes away. Beds and furniture were comfortable. The manager was easy to get a hold of when we had a question. We would stay again if in the area.

I love Gulf Crest and stay there frequently. This was our first time staying in this unit and we will definitely do it again. Paula and her team were amazing!! The unit was lacking some essential kitchen supplies but Paula was on it and brought us everything that was requested. The room was clean and comfortable but tile floors are always hard to get super clean. The beds were very comfy and the kids raved that the bunk beds were too. The shower in the master bath was a plus too! Definitely a great stay and we will be back! Thank you Paula!
