Much needed maintenance

The condo needs a lot of maintenance. Cabinets didn’t stay closed with the trash can could not open the dryer with out pushing the bifold door the water barely came out of all facets the bed with the bunk bed was so loose could not use the top one and the cooling in that room was bad barely came out. Would not stay at that condo unit

Nice Unit

The unit was fine, but there were issues with the property. There was only one working elevator and the pool was closed for two days. Other properties rented to people who had teens who where arrested for underaged drinking. It was not the owner's fault, but there were issues with the property and those who rented other units.

Great trip for family of 6.

We had a wonderful stay at this unit. Our group consisted of two adults and four children (ages 4–11). Having stayed at several different condos over the years, we found the layout of this unit to be among the best for accommodating a larger group. The children especially loved the bunk beds, which added to the fun of the trip.The only minor drawback was that the sliding doors to the bunk room offered limited noise insulation, making it a bit challenging when the adults stayed up later than the kids.Each bedroom was equipped with a large television, although we hardly used them, as we spent most of our time at the beach and exploring the local area. The furniture and beds were all high-quality and sturdily built, and the recently renovated bathrooms were clean and modern.We also appreciated the well-equipped kitchen, which included plenty of cookware and solid cutlery—the best we’ve encountered in any rental (though the knives could use a bit of sharpening).Overall, we were extremely pleased with our stay and will definitely keep this unit at the top of our list for future visits!

Million dollar view.

My family & I loved this condo. Very spacious for 2 adults & 3 teens. All the comforts of home & very clean. View was amazing & only a few steps to the warm gulf waters. We enjoyed the pool & hot tub. Hosts were quick to answer texts & calls. We would definitely stay here again.

could have been better for the price

this unit needs to be updated. the floor was really dirty. the patio furniture was old and rusty in some places. the water pressure was horrible. beds were very comfortable. no kitchen towels or dish cloths. missing enough forks and spoons. I don't know, I think for the price it should have been more equipped. also, not told the pool and hot tub was not working for the first whole week. that ws really a bummer... oh well.

Great Family Vacation

We were a family with 3 generations aged 73-15, this property was wonderful for us, great sleeping arrangements with comfortable beds. Beach was amazing and pool and hot tub were great too, many great restaurants in close proximity. The clothes dryer was broken but the property manager had somebody out to attempt to fix it ASAP and when it couldn’t be fixed, the owner replaced it by Tuesday. We understand things sometimes break and really appreciated timeliness of replacing the dryer. We will definitely return! Thank you for a wonderful week.

Beautiful place right on the beach

The condo was as described right on the beach. We enjoyed everything about the stay. There are a lot of great restaurants nearby and the beach is beautiful. The only downside is the unit is right across from the elevator which you can hear moving all night and there is a light outside one of the bedroom windows (easily taken care of with ear plugs and a sleep mask).

Beach, pool and best view!!

Very nice condo that's right on the beach and has a pool if you don't want the beach. Restaurant right across the street is so convenient and there's a really cute ice cream place you can walk to as well. Our only complaint was the sink in the guest bathroom; problem with the faucet and water sprayed out all over when you turned it on. And the kitchen needs more silverware and coffee mugs. Definitely will return! Thank you!!!

Amazing Beach Vacation!!!

Beautiful view and sunsets, very nice beach and pool. The beds were very comfortable. Would be nice if beach towels were provided. The kitchen was great except needed potholders and washcloths. I got some at Walmart and left them. Also needed more food storage containers so I got them and left them there. Added some sand toys for my grandsons and left them. The beach wagon was very nice to haul things to the beach!!! Faucet in quest bathroom sink is in need of repair, but was usable.

Fun in the sun!

The condo was clean and had an awesome view of the gulf. Beach chairs and umbrella in closet on the balcony was a plus. Also nice balcony furniture to sit and drink your coffee on in the morning. I found the water pressure in the master bathroom so bad you could not use the shower and the toilet was also hard to flush because of it. The TV in the living room did not work even following the directions that were left for it. There were 3 other TVs that worked.I would return !

Always love our visit!

I have stayed in this condo 6 times already!! Each time it has been clean and comfortable with amazing views! It really feels like our second home..we know where everything is. Yea sure it may be a little outdated but who cares. It is on the beach and the sunsets are celebrated each night with days by the shore. We are barely in the condo except for a good nights sleep (by the way the bed is amazingly comfortable as are the pillows). When you go away you want to feel as though you are truly somewhere else and the beachy furniture which may be a bit outdated is perfect for that! The washer and dryer worked fine for us and we never closed the drapes even on the sunlight because the condo was always cool and we wanted to see the ocean from the top floor 24/7!! The only thing - the last two times have had way more children than usual which did present a lot of noise for us oldsters. Even late into the evening (11:00-midnight) They were having a great time but the pool and hot tub are basically unusable due to the amount of children. It was ok - we just went on the beach but it would have been nice to enjoy the pool area as well. I highly recommend this condo - it has always been a thrill for me!

Wonderful Family Stay

We had a wonderful week in Indian Shores staying in PH#3. Views were stunning and building and pool area were clean. King beds were very comfy. Plenty of bath towels. Only issue we had was parking because the assigned space for unit was in garage which was closed due to construction in there. There were many pool and sand toys in balcony closet, a couple camp chairs which were on balcony but would not fold up to put in carrying bags. No umbrella or cooler. We added a few sand toys and float items to closet. There was a hand pump in laundry closet to inflate pool toys which was great! Kitchen was well stocked but lacked anything plastic to feed children on which we were traveling with. Everything was glassware or ceramic. We left items we purchased in cupboards for next guests. Hope they stay there:) One item of note bedroom with bunk beds is smaller than it appeared to me when looking at pictures and because of its location in front of unit right off front door by door and window on walkway it’s louder and it was quite warm in there (maybe provide a fan?) Also, it only has sliding louvered doors right on entry way which means room was the noisiest to anyone coming or going and children did not sleep well in there. One other suggestion would be to add a lamp in living room. It would be great especially as it gets dark at about 7-7:30 now and to read by instead of using VERY bright overhead ceiling fan light. When we needed assistance we received response promptly. Service was great. We would definitely stay here again!
