This place is amazing!!! The condo has been updated and the view is fantastic. The unit was very clean and tidy and stocked well, there was nothing we needed. We will definitely stay here again.
Great location, property and host! Easy check-in, property was clean and quiet. Great view of the pool and Gulf. Terry was prompt in answering any questions, offered a discount for adding two extra days to my stay.

Great place and great location
The condo was very nice and looked to be recently remodeled. It was very clean and right on the beach. The views from the living room and balcony were fantastic. The owner was responsive and easy to contact. It was great finding an oceanfront place that was dog friendly. I would definitely stay here again if I'm in the area.
The gulf view was the best, you could hear the crashing waves in the condo. I looked for months trying to find a condo that would allow our fur baby to stay with us, and I am so glad that this condo checked all the right boxes. We well defiantly be back. Thank you!!
It was a fantastic experience from the beginning to end! The property manager was always quick to respond! They were very gracious and helpful! We arrived a little early and the manager was quick to respond. They quickly checked to see if the condo was clean and if we could check early! This was such a God send because we have been traveling over 10 hours with a English Mastiff! He was ready to stretch! I can’t say enough about how incredible the experience was! Thank you!
As always, it was a pleasure staying at this condo. Great location, amazing view, great pools (included indoor heated pool), clean and close to many restaurants.
We absolutely loved our stay at Dogs Stays & Gulf Waves!! We will definitely be back!

We had an amazing stay!
This condo was perfect for me, my husband and our dog. We found it to be clean, neat and tidy. The beach view from the balcony is one of the best and nice that access to the beach is so close and easy. There are no negatives, this condo is an excellent choice with no regrets!

The best getaway from the hustle and bustle!
We arrived for a 3 night stay to a very clean and organized condo. Spacious enough for what you need and a beautiful patio right on the beach and above the pool. The condo has everything you need. Appliances were of good quality and everything worked perfectly. Will definitely stay again!
You can tell this Condo has been updated and decorated. A short walk to the beach. We really enjoyed our stay here. Terry’s Vacation Rental Company is definitely a good rental company to use. We had an issue when we first got there and as soon as I contacted her, I received an answer right back. They really work with you and made sure everything is as it should be. Thanks for everything.

Very Dog Friendly, Great Location, Great Condo
If I could live in this condo I would. Easy to get to, quaint yet perfect for 2-4 people, especially with kids and dogs, and everything worked well. Beach was easy to get to with plenty of room. Pools were clean and fun for the kids. Quiet evenings. Clean and well stocked. Patio setting was perfect for watching the pool and beach. Plenty of seating for dinner outside. I traveled alone with my child and dog, and I felt safe the whole time. Well lit at night for dog potty breaks. Security was great. Working with Terry was great. Easy to communicate with and helped with any questions I had. Laundry, kitchen and entertainment gadgets worked perfect. We loved it there.

Beautiful place!
Everything in the condo was updated and new from floors to granite. The second floor balcony overlooks the ocean, and you can hear the waves crashing. Everything was just as promised, and we absolutely loved our time there.
