Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amy P. 8 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Clean & cute This was a great property. It looks exactly like the pictures show. It was very clean and had great security. The only part I didn't care for was that we couldn't get more towels midweek and I wish somewhere it would have mentioned the bathrooms off of the lobby. We didn't find them until our last day & we're going all the way to our room from the pool or beach. So over all I give it a 9.5/10 and would stay there again!! ##### Amy P. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Deanna C. 27 May 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Girls' Trip We loved the property. Our view was beautiful amd our stay was perfect! The only thing I would have changed was the coffee pot. We could not get it to work. The filters were odd shaped and the inside of the pot was very black. Otherwise, perfect. The coffee pot gave us a reason to go to Starbucks! ##### Deanna C. Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Casey A. 22 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy #### Top of the gulf Overall is was just okay, I wouldn’t stay here again though. Our tv wasn’t working upon arrival. I advised them immediately, but didn’t receive a replacement tv until our trip was almost over. They replaced the tv while we were out and we came back to find a few nuts and bolts in our bed. Speaking of the bed it’s an old spring mattress that pops and creaks with two small flat pillows. The location and view was nice though. ##### Casey A. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Valerie S. 25 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Good, but not great. The location was great. The cleanliness was not so great. And there was prior water damage that was not disclosed to me before arrival. The warped walls and use of an dehumidifier were my clues. When i asked the proprty mgt about it, they were quick to respond and even came out to check on it but did not give an update after they came on site. The kitchen was wonderful. You can tell they invested the upgrades. The bed was uncomfortable and it could hvae used a dresser of some sort. Great for a quick getaway, not so much for longer trips. ##### Valerie S.
