Nice but Small

We had a nice stay. The view from the balcony and the living room is spectacular and its right on the beach. The convenience of location is great. Know the area in the apartment is very small if you plan to spend any time in it. We enjoyed ourselves.

Clean and nice

It was very nice. Convenient to the beach and restaurants. Down side it it’s super close to the elevator so it’s a little noisy.

Birthday Get Away!

We celebrated my wife’s birthday over the weekend and absolutely loved the place. When we came in, we found a small surprise for my wife’s birthday!! It was very cute and she loved it. Condo was very clean and updated. We had no issues whatsoever. We will definitely stay again.

Location Location Location

The condo had everything we needed! You do need to bring your own supplies. The location could not be more perfect. We never had to go anywhere in our car. Hangout next door, Desoto Seafood couple of blocks away, Bahama Bobs next door. Souvenir City couple of blocks away! The only downside is the patio is not very private. Loved it here.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Everything was great. However, the mattress for the bed is terrible. Very uncomfortable and both of us had trouble sleeping and woke up sore. Needs to be replaced. Towels were also old and sandpaper like. Other than that it was great but would stay again until mattress is replaced.

The room was wonderful. Everything was clean and nice. The bed in the bedroom was the most comfortable sleeping I have ever had in a VRBO. The view of the ocean was great. Walking distance to everything. I recommend this space for your trip to the Gulf Shore.
