This was our first time to the Gulf coast and we really enjoyed the beach. It’s a great beach for young children—soft sand, calm water that you can walk way out into, dolphins and stingrays swimming around, and tide pools during low tide. The pools on property were also excellent—very clean—we saw them out there daily vacuuming and cleaning the deck area. We didn’t get to enjoy the pools much because they were FREEZING. We were told the heaters has been turned off a few days before and it was definitely not warm enough overnight yet to turn them off.
The condo was fine—not amazing but fine. It has the very basics of what you need but nothing extra (which we have gotten used to when renting on vbro). I’d love to see some family games or movies available for rainy days, more silverware (we ran out well before we were out if dishes), and extra kitchen towels. The condo was comfortable in terms of space for a small family (3-5), but the beds were not comfortable (time for a new mattress). Checkin and communication was easy/excellent. The place seemed clean on the surface, but it wasn’t clean clean. I certainly wouldn’t say I won’t stay here again, but unless there are some easy updates done, I wouldn’t necessarily seek this particular unit again... and if we stayed in this unit again, I’d come prepared with more stuff from home. The beach and amenities are excellent—the condo itself is just okay.
