Great Stay

We enjoyed our time here. This is the less busier end of the beach so it is a little more quiet. The condo was clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed for cooking our own meals. It was nicely decorated. Would stay here again.

Amazing location

We had a blast staying at this condo, everything was clean and well managed. If I had a question, Kim was very quick to respond or offer help. We loved the location and the easy access to the beach. The resort was nice and we really enjoyed that the condo overlooked the pool so we could keep an eye on the kiddos if they were down there with their grandma!

Our stay was amazing about 5 mins from the beach and it was super peaceful, Kim was amazing with answering all the questions one thing I will say is you do need to get the bracelets to use the amenities because the security guards drop by the pools and amenities to check and make sure you get you’re parking pass or they will leave you a note on the vehicle overall we will be back to this beautiful place

Year number two just as awesome!

This was mine and my spouse 2nd year staying and as always, as great as the 1st year. Property was clean. Could walk to the beach. Security. And plenty of extras on site ie tennis , swimming pools , tennis courts, and gym. I recommend to absolutely anybody to include a family. It sleeps up to 6. Very minimal complaints but also a part of it, the neighbors upstairs was in fact a herd of elephants. It was constant back and forth but kids , right? The drains ran a little slower draining this time but again maintenance and stuff happens. Speaking with the property manager has always been a breeze. She has even worked with me on rescheduling after a family emergency came up. We will be back next year. Definitely are only chosen spot to stay!

The place was great and had easy access to the beach. The owner was easy to communicate with. Just be aware there is a $20 per person extra fee for accessing the community amenities. That may have been stated on the listing but I missed it and thought it was worth pointing out. We still had a great stay though!

Quick change in Summer vacation plans

We were in a situation where we had to change our Summer vacation plans practically last minute. I was very happy to be able to reserve this location on such short notice. The price was great for the accomodations and location. Comfortable unit with very nice pool below. Very convenient to nearby Pier Park, lots of restaurants, shopping, beach access across the street from complex. We even explored over to Grayton Beach State Park and inland to other State parks. We were looking for a centrally located "home base" and this unit definitely worked out. We had a great time.

Nice getaway

The condo was nice and made due for what we needed. The only issues we had were the curtains in the main bedroom are very sheer so a lot of light came in at night so we had to put blankets over the window to black them out. Also the main bedroom does not get any air conditioning. There is a ceiling fan and 2 standing fans to help with that but the room being cooler would have helped us sleep better. Other than that we would consider staying here again in the future.

Nice unit, nice property manager.

The condo is in great shape. The master bed is somewhat weird, as you feel like you’re sleeping on a decline. We just slept at the opposite end of the bed. We didn’t buy the bracelets as we were only there for a day and a half, and our time was spent at another property with friends who didn’t have to pay for bracelets to be there. Honestly, the whole “pay for bracelets to be on property” is a scam, and will deter me from staying at this property, or similar, in the future. As the bracelet policy is more of a condo association, and not that if the owner or property manager, I’ve not considered this in the rating of the property, which I felt was better than expected.

Needs a good cleaning

This property has a great location but It needs a good cleaning. There was so much dust stuck to the ceiling fans that it was flying off when the fans are turned on. Dust and cob webs behind the bedroom television. Part of the vertical blinds missing in the bedroom so you get awakened by the early morning sun. During my stay I never could find the remote for the master bedroom TV. I really don’t understand how Kim can be a premier host with such a DIRTY place. During time of Covid the host should be taking extra precautions of making sure there place is clean and ready for renters. You can tell this place with the amount of dust hasn’t been cleaned since before Covid. Stay away if you have allergies.

Was amazing !

Absolutely loved the condo. Was clean. Spacious. Everything we needed inside to include towels, dishes, soaps, beach chairs , to having access to pools, fitness center, 10 min tops from everything, and could walk to the beach with out having to fight parking. I will be booking again next year for a week long instead of a weekend. The host messaged me back within minutes with answers to my questions, even though I over read them (which is my own fault) but she was kind, helpful, and courteous. I highly recommend! Will be booking again. Thank you so much for the peaceful getaway!
