Excellent Stay
The condo was clean and well maintained the beds were comfortable and the view from the balcony was amazing. We will definitely stay here again if available on our next visit. The host were easy to communicate with.
Condo was wonderful in all aspects. Gulf front, very welcoming, with a great view of the gulf. Very short walk to the beach & water. In the heart of all the fun, shops & restaurant/bars. Would definitely stay there again!
We really enjoyed our stay. I had to communicate with the Host a few times over a small plumbing issue in the guest bathtub. It was resolved before I could even say not to worry. Extremely quiet for a condo, which was nice with a 3 month old. Check in was easy, good balcony view, excellent beach, entire condo was comfortable. We would stay again, given the opportunity.
The local owner provided his phone number for any issues we may have. Best check in and stay we have had. The coffee maker stopped working, he brought us a new one. I have been going to the gulf for years, best condo I have stayed in. One suggestion, If you grill over fill with charcoal, the all aluminum out door grills do not heat up as good as steel.

Great condo and stay
2nd year at this condo! Again, super clean, comfortable and fantastic view. Jason always makes the checkin process super easy and can be reached any time needed. First year at Shrimp Festival. Super busy and luckily condo far enough away from the festival that it was easy to get back to condo. Super clean beach and great indoor/outdoor pool/hot tubs!
Note during Shrimp festival long waits at restaurants and lots of detours. Go early.
Enjoyed our stay so much and will always book with Jason & Sonya for future stays!
I booked this condo for my daughter and I while we were in town for her volleyball tournament, and we were both beyond happy with my choice.The pictures are exact, you will not walk into any surprises. The master bedroom has a very comfortable king bed, tv, ensuite, spacious closet, and lots of drawer space. Best feature was having a sliding door out to the huge balcony. The 2nd bedroom has a queen bed, tv, closet, lots of drawer space and ensuite privileges. There is plenty of seating between the dinning room table and breakfast bar chairs. The living room also has plenty of seating, and a large tv. The kitchen was very well equipped, and everything worked perfectly. Did I mention the balcony is huge? There is a table with 4 chairs, and 2 lounge chairs. The view of the ocean is perfect and unobstructed. Truly an oasis. Check-in was easy with keyless entry, and appreciated, no lineups or security offices to deal with. The condo has plenty of parking and very friendly security guards on duty. The condo is also very centrally located to restaurants and shops.The owner was friendly, great at communicating, and very informative. We had a wonderful experience and will definitely be back.

What an amazing place to stay!!
This was a great getaway! Everything I needed was there! It was well furnished and felt like “home!” Great views of the sunrise and sunset from the balcony! Excellent service from Jason with recommendations! I will be back!!
Overall condo was as advertised. View from 5th fl was beautiful. We were able to meet our host Jason. He was very nice and helpful with local info. Will definitely be looking to book here on a return trip.
We loved our condo! It was just the right size, clean, easy beach access, and loved it! Everyone was nice and the owners were great! They sent us great places to go and eat and do things at. My family and I will definitely be coming back and staying here again!
