Disappointed Outdated and CLOGGED

Place was very out dated, furniture was horrid and the plumbing was dreadfully clogged. The bed was terrible just a step up from blow-up mattress and the bedding was the same quality as in cheap and paper thin. The couch sounded like it was about to fall apart every time you sat on it. The bathroom was a nightmare. Everything was clogged. Nothing drained. You stood in inches of water to shower. The sink wouldn’t drain just brushing your teeth. The location was the only thing good, otherwise it was a massive let down. Pictures are hugely deceiving. Size was good for a couple but very disappointed overall. The 2 stars is for location and beach access.

Slight disappointment

Location is good and it was clean, however, the original listing said two bathrooms which is a must with 4 ladies, but it was only one. When I contacted the owner via message, the online listing changed but I never received any feedback. Second, you have to pay to park which I’ve never done when I’ve stayed in any location and then you aren’t guaranteed a spot! If the lot fills up you have to find parking elsewhere even though YOU PAID FOR A SPOT! Next, there is no WiFi even though it says there is which is hard with TEENS. Lastly, we knew we would be using the pullout couch, but it needs replacing horribly. You will be sleeping on springs. If you’re looking for a place for two, I say this is good, but for more than two people I warn against it.

Inaccurate listing

Listing says that the condo comes with 2 bathrooms, but there was only 1 bathroom. Also had in the information for the condo there was parking availability for up to 2 cars, but we were only allowed to park 1. Additionally the listing said that we would have access to wifi, and both the listing and owner noted that there would be extra linens, however neither were available for our stay. Listing also says the condo sleeps 6, but management noted we should have only have had 4-5 people in the condo. Lastly, after contacting the property manager about the incorrect information, I have not received a message back. Only putting 2 stars because the location is good and condo was clean, but the misinformation was a big factor in the low rating.

Great location but some issues

I’ll start with the good! The view from this condo is great and the location is also great! The condo is nice just very small. I can’t imagine having more than 2 people in this condo. The issues.. online it says this is a 2 bath condo, it is not. It also says checkin is at 3:00 but then my confirmation email says 4:00. I messaged the owner at 3:00 and 4:00 then finally received the checkin in around 4:20. This was frustrating because we had been in the beach a few hours and wasn’t able to find a restroom anywhere on the property (checked the lobby and pool area) so we were wanting in the room on time. Also when booking it didn’t mention that you have to buy a $25 parking pass. We bought it and parked in the spots that appeared to be for the condo but got a warning ticket that we were in the wrong lot. We had a few issues in the room such as no toilet paper at all at check in, the iron was broken in the bottom, the fan/light in the bedroom didn’t work, and as we tried to turn on the dishwasher when leaving it didn’t work. We still had a good trip and I did send these items to the owner hoping they will be fixed for the next renter.

Great condo

Condo was just as described. Right on the beach and easy access to and from the beach. Only downfall is being by the elevator. It’s nice when wanting to leave quickly, but not when people are up and running down the hall at 6 am and loud right outside bedroom window. Wifi does not work. But overall it was everything we needed. Nice and clean and near all the restaurants and shops. Would def stay here again.

Nice place and excellent location

Nice place, but the cleaning crew hasn’t been doing their job, stove was dirty and couch had crumbs on it and old gold fish in the pull out, but overall was a decent stay. Pull out bed mattress is shot, so maybe bring an egg crate or something to pad it with and blankets for pull out because there was none. The view and beach access was excellent and the grounds are kept clean and close enough to bars and restaurants you can walk.

Good location

Pros: Location is right on the beach and has a great view. The decor of condo is nice. A/C works. Washer and dryer in condo made it easy to keep up on laundry. Restaurants are waking distance. Cons: The bed and pull out couch were very uncomfortable. Only one blanket in the whole place (on the bed) and no extra blanket for the pullout couch. Vrbo listing said they would provide beach towels therefore we did not bring our own, but there were no beach towels when we arrived. Check in rules said not to use the bath towels for the beach so we just drip dried when we went to the beach or pool. We could not access the wi-fi. We sent a vrbo message to the property manager and called and left a voicemail for them in regards to the beach towels and wi-fi and did not receive a response. Would stay here again but would bring extra blankets, beach towels, and our own pillows to make it more comfortable. Would not plan on having access to wi-fi.

Host profile image
We are so excited to open our doors to you for your vacation in the Gulf!
We fell in love with the area when we first visited over six years ago!
We loved it so much that we decided to take the leap and invest in our future with the purchase of this property.
The Gulf brought us such peace and joy with each visit that when we finally decided to tie the knot, we did so right on the very beach in front of this condo! Bringing our families and lives together where it all started made it the trip of a lifetime.
The Gulf has quickly made its way into our hearts and has made leaving it harder with every stay. Wisconsin’s white winters have nothing on the Gulf’s white beaches so… we packed up and moved down! We are able to accommodate our guests every needs ourselves while living our dream life together in paradise.

Why they chose this property

Our condo is located just steps from pristine lining the gorgeous Gulf of Mexico. Guests can kick back and enjoy unobstructed views of the Gulf from private balconies without ever leaving your Condo.

We enjoy Gulf-front outdoor pool for swimming or sunbathing, and a grilling area. Convenient proximity to shopping, dining, amusement parks and even a nearby zoo. State pier located within walking distance.
