Lots to like with this rental

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Being snowbirds, we love the location and the Tropical Winds complex. The condo itself is very spacious and comfortable. However, there are a few long term maintenance issues that should be addressed. For example, the refrigerator is missing an entire shelf and the furniture, etc. is starting to show it's age. The pots and pans are wearing out and probably should be replaced. We appreciated that the owner replaced the mattress in the main bedroom for us. With a little bit of TLC this would be a fantastic condo.

No Way!!!

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Upon arrival the outside looked run down and in terrible need of a refresh. The inside of the condo was just ok. Any worse and I would have run. Luckily we travel with bathroom cleaner so we stayed. The ice maker never worked and we called 3 times. Finally the service man decided to blame us for it not working. Other than opening to see if we had ice our group touched nothing. We tried ordering rental chairs for the beach and were told Tropical Winds does not allow rentals on their property. Don’t plan on renting. We had to go purchase chairs. The unit advertised currently renovated or refreshed and the couch was at least 20 years old. AC works but was very loud, washing machine works but was so loud you could not run and watch TV in the living area at the same time. Lots of molding spots on the ceiling and just a dirty place. We will NEVER stay there again. Dog poop in the elevator on 2 different occasions. Don’t mind your dog but please clean up. Smokers at the pool and on various balconies. I have asthma with a smokers trigger so that was concerning.

Tropical Winds is a great place to stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. 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: This is a great condo unit with plenty of space and the online description and photos are accurate. We enjoyed our two month stay and the people we met at Tropical Winds. This was our third time renting this specific unit. Be aware that there isn't a lot of beach in front of this complex. Beach restoration is planned for later on in 2023. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and cookware, but the refrigerator only has two shelves and the ice maker makes a lot of noise when it cycles. There is also a separate standalone ice maker which is a great addition. The beachside king bed could use a new mattress. Also the area rug in the living room is starting to show its wear. There is an excellent pizza place right across the street and nearby restaurants that you can easily walk to.

Good week at Tripucal Winds 601

Tripical Winds 601 was very good but not perfect. Close proximity to the beach, well stocked clean condo although the towels were hotel 6-ish. Convenient codes for access to condo and pool/beach but numbers were incorrect on info sheet. Exercise room consisted of one tradmill and access to it and pool bathroom wasnt easy. There was a hospitality room with a shortcut to the pool bathrooms near the pool but it was always locked. The condo had a stand alone icemaker in addition to the fridge which was great. Nice balcony but the neighboring condo buildings stuck out further toward the beach than TW did so there were limited views down the beach in both directions. The garbage disposal was locked up upon arrival. We were able to fix it but it is recommended that the cleaning crew check it between guests. The condo does not have storage closets for beach gear, only a pen to set things in and we had a couple of items get pilfered during our stay. Could have taken them to our room or just outside but too much of a hassle. Also, the beach was narrow in the TW area and no canopies were allowed, only umbrellas. The grilling situation was interesting as well. The 2 charcoal only pits are positiined so wind passes from the beach to between the buildings in that area and it sets up a wind tunnel of about a steady 30mph going right through the pit area. Overall good time and good condo though.

Paradise for a week

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent July 1-10 at Tropical Winds, unit #601. The condo was perfect! We did have an issue with the ice maker, but they came and fixed it immediately and we had no issues for the rest of the week. My ONLY complaint is, the elevator went out and was out for the entire day, in to the night, walking 6 flights with pool bags and beach toys wasnt fun!!!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Unit was very clean! Loved that it had an ice maker. View beautiful and beach great as it was small. Not far to walk to beach and not crowded. One elevator was plenty for the size of the condo.We had an issue with ice maker and once reported someone came quickly to repair. Only drawback was no beach chair and umbrella service available. However, there was service next door and the attendant was nice enough to put our chairs as close to our condo as possible. Pool needed some maintenance but we didn’t spend much time there.

Reviewer Comments: The condo at 601 Tropical Winds was nicely updated and we enjoyed our stay, We would definitely stay again if the beach itself wasn’t so narrow narrow and uneven to walk on. It was hard on anyone with knee issues.

Besides that we had a lovely time. Last, make sure not to forget to put your parking pass up in the vehicle or they will tow it regardless if you are staying there.

In spite of cancelled Shrimp Fest!

While I was a little apprehensive about just one elevator, the condo smelling a tad musty and the access entry to the pool and beach looking a little outdated, it turned out to be a great place. Not many steps to a beautiful beach!

Condo was great, beach was not.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We came down the end of July. We arrived and were excited, overall the condo was good. It could have been cleaned better I.e. burnt fries still in the oven, more sand on the floor than there should have been but that was an easy fix. The Condo is in a great location and the beach itself is clean, untilYou get in the water. I’m not sure how often this happens but there was so much algae in the water it made you not want to swim in it.

Family Vacation

Rating Details: The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Tropical Winds Unit 601 was as described. It was the size of unit that we needed for our family of 7. The location was perfect very close to all we had planned to do. Good supply of cookware. Some units never have enough cookware and this unit had the perfect amount and item needed. Very easy to get in and out of unit and complex. Easy access to the beach and pool area. Only thing I might change would be to have an area for overflow parking. With a three bedroom 3 bath unit it really need access to three parking spaces. That I guess is the only negative I had with the complex.
