Fantastic view and balcony! Downside, TV service in the condo did not work. Contacted Vacasa several times, was told they would send to management to rectify for us. This NEVER happened!! We should be refunded a portion of our stay due to the troubles we had! Just want to sit down, relax and watch the news and no TV! If you use an insulin pump or anything that depends on WiFi, it is verify spotty.

Missourians mother/daughter vacation

This was a much needed time away for me, my 2 girls, and my youngest girl's best friend. We didn't want to leave! This condo was nice to come back to after a day on the beach, out shopping, sightseeing or whatever the case may be. It was like a nice and cozy home away from home. And the view from the balcony was amazing. Refreshing and relaxing was had by all of us. I definitely recommend this place.

Great gulf view, easy beach access

This property had everything we needed for our family Spring Break vacation. Very clean, everything functional. Loved the corner condo as it gives more of a beach view and natural light. Would stay again. Excellent property and host! Thanks!

Family getaway

We were able to check in early, without issue. Condo is HUGE, dpace everywhere. Only "issue" which didn't hurt the stay, is the beds are the old style mattresses that are not comfortable and the couch/chairs are older and not the most comfortable to sit in. Outside of those, everything else was great

Great view and roomy

The size was great, the furnishings were nice. The kitchen could use some updating. The balcony was big. End unit was close to elevators and had extra windows. Bring a heating blanket if you come in the winter, the heater needs attention. It’s definitely great for a large group.

Awesome for family vacation

We stayed a week and were very happy with the accommodations. The condo is roomy and had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. I especially enjoyed the fact beach chairs and umbrella were provided, making it much easier with a 5 yr old. My only real complaint is the bathtubs could use some updating.. tubs a bit stained/dingy.. otherwise everything was perfect!

Great location, needs some updates.

We loved the location of this condo! The balcony was the best, and easy beach access! However, the condo furniture/decor is dated. The mattresses are like sleeping on bricks, they are extra firm and not comfortable at all, there was a foam topper in the closet, but it looked dirty so we did not use it. The AC unit never got the condo below 73/74 the whole week, the filter looked like it had not been changed in a long time. The floors were not very clean, something was spilled/sticky under the recliner in the living room, there was a sponge mop we were able to use to clean that up.

Would come back!

Everything was super nice and clean! The pictures do show beach chairs and umbrellas but we did find out when we got there that they are rentals. We rented chairs and an umbrella 2 of the 3 days we were there at a good rate. Our WiFi was not working the whole trip which was a down side since the connection was not the best. We sent to the company for it to get fixed and no one showed up. Other than those two things and some minor staining on the furniture everything was great!

Harris family review

We arrived around 2pm and tried to check in but couldn't. So to kill time we went and had lunch. Got back to the condo at 330 and couldn't get in. Waited in the car until 3:55 and we were able to access it. Overall nice and spacious place. 5th floor with a great view right next to the elevator. Great location, it was clean, and very well maintained. Only complaints, and they are minor ones, but different shower heads in showers. easier sliding glass doors. And comfortable beds. Some of these are preference based so I get it, but nobody is perfect. Overall great place and will book here again.
