  : Easy booking process on line and we had to book quickly as our previous lodging arrangement fell through unexpectedly. Great location on the beach and the accommodations were clean and what we were hoping for from a comfort and ease standpoint.
  : Property needed a little updating, some of the baseboards in the bathrooms were in need of repair. Some lounge chairs on the beach would have been nice too.

  : Location and balcony view was great. Size of the unit was awesome.
  : Baking sheet for baking pizzas or cookies, an electric griddle or something similar to cook several items at same time for a bigger family. Elevator was out for awhile, being on the 8th floor, it was a hassle. Could use a refresh on furnishings and update in the kitchen and bath.

  : Clean, very spacious condo. Excellent huge balcony. Great view. Kitchen appliances all working / updated. AC / heat worked well. Clothes washer was good…Master bedroom w/ balcony facing the Gulf fantastic.Shared facilities: Good: Heated indoor pool (relatively small), not heated outdoor pool (adequate). Fair: 4 fitness machines - all worked.
  : Clothes dryer was weak.Condo could have provided more paper goods, more regular towels and extra towels for the beach.TV remote batteries all needed changing. (Called for assistance, spoke to manager re: one TV’s connectivity problem. No one ever came to help, nor followed up). Two back bedrooms facing the elevator/parking lot had no outdoor access/could not open windows/had slight musty, mold smell; not enough ventilation. One of two bathrooms’ fan did not work. Condo did not pay for/include beach chairs. $40 day use fee for 2 chairs — separate company. Would be nice addition if condo owners stashed a couple beach chairs in closet for use.Email & in-app correspondence were contradictory re: parking: “Free parking for 2 vehicles / $50 parking fee includes 2 vehicles.”Water was shut off for 4 hours, 10am-2pm one weekday due to renovations. Was given 13 hours notice via text msg. Mild inconvenience.Negatives / Room for improvement / suggestions:Lacking: - ice machine- vending machines- common lounge area- complimentary coffee / tea would be nice- in-person concierge / manager- include beach chairs- include more towels in general - add more hooks in bathrooms & bedrooms- include coffee filters

  : The property was in a good location with a wonderful view and access to the beach. There was an ample supply of towels and plenty of hot water.
  : The sleeper sofa was extremely stained and dirty and there was no bedding for it. The apartment is dated and could use an update—rusted refrigerator, etc. the living room ceiling needs painted. There was no way for everyone to view the living room tv together without sitting on the floor. Add should state nothing is provided.

  : DIDN'T KNOW THEY SERVED BREAKFAST. IT WAS GREAT. WE WERE EVACUATING FROM HURRICAN IDA. FAMILY ENJOYED THE POOLS AND ACCESS TO BEACH.
  : THEY WASN'T ANYTHING THAT WE DID NOT LIKE. CAN'T SAY MORE.
