The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Clean, close to the beach, comfortable overall. We were really happy with this rental. The covered back porch was really convenient plus enough seating for everyone at the table out there. Loved that there were 3 king beds and I didn't have to deal with a high rise. Besides not having elevators to deal with, it was nice having an uncluttered beachfront. The company was easy to work with as well. I would definitely stay there again! ##### Tarantula This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### V N. 4 May 2024 #### Highly recommend Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful.

Reviewer Comments: My wife and I stayed here for an anniversary vacation. I highly recommend it! The place has great modern amenities (kitchen, bathrooms, electronics) and is decorated WONDERFULLY. One of the bedrooms faces the Gulf and has a window you can open to hear the ocean while you sleep. There's also a nice shaded deck with table and chairs you can eat on with the absolute best view of the ocean. ##### V N.

Reviewer Comments: This town home is a wonderful place to stay. We spent our week enjoying the uncrowded beach, which was great. As with any home on the beach be prepared to climb stairs. Home was well equipped kitchen & we loved the 3 king beds. We are looking forward to our 2 week stay there in October.KC was wonderful to work with & quick to provide extra towels & wash cloths to our group of 5\. Thanks Key Concepts for all your help including the help you gave with the beach chair rental company. See you in October. ##### Denise B. ### 6/10 Okay #### Chris C. 29 Sept 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy #### Mold/disappointed The property needs upgraded, the outside looks horrible, boardwalk number three initial when we stayed at had a lot of black mold, was moved to boardwalk number one. There was a little black mold in that one as well but not as bad as the number three. The floors were horribly dirty, the back deck seemed sketchy at best. I feel like I could have spent my money better elsewhere. Boardwalk number one could be nice if it was fixed up a little bit. The pool table was in bad shape, the pingpong table was falling apart. The underneath of the building was in very bad shape, a lot of spare pieces and parts. The outside of the building was rough. I made it a good time for the family, but seriously that will return to that location again especially for that kind of money. It was Florida, the hurricane missed us and it didn't rain all week so that was nice. ##### Chris C.
