I cannot say enough nice things about this property. We had easily accessible parking, clean & comfortable accommodations, an amazing view of the beach from the balcony, all needed utensils to use the kitchen & grill, a ping pong table as well as accessories to make beach time more relaxing. Parvenah was an amazing host. Communication was great and she is so nice. Very highly recommended. I noticed some mentioned the traffic out front. It is busy, but it is not distracting. However, if you prefer more quiet, there is a balcony and yard in back that is calmer and has more breeze.

The host was great…the place is well decorated and plenty of space. We cut our stay short because there was too many steps to climb. If we were going to stay for a week we could have lasted but we were supposed to be there for four weeks…too long of a time knowing we had a climb…our host did ask if we wanted to move one level down but again it was too much for us to handle.

Sorry you had to cut your vacation short. Many of the houses on the island are elevated. If you had let me know that you just had a medical procedure i would have teminded that you chose the top floor unit and that is written in the description. I did offer you the larger lower level at no additional charge that would have been one less set of stairs. Thank you Parvaneh

Holmes Beach Condo

This was such a nice condo, really spacious, great location across from the beach. We really enjoyed being able to walk across for breakfast in the am at the beachside cafe and music each evening at sunset. We had everything we needed inside the condo as well, including W/D, well stocked kitchen and beach items. Close to every kind of restaurant you could want too! Thanks for a great stay!

Beautiful week on the Gulf

Perfect accommodation for our family of four. Spacious living area and bedrooms. Location is very busy, but it worked out well for us. Our teenage sons had some places nearby to explore. Grocery and several places to eat within walking distance. Beautiful views of sunsets over the gulf. Would definitely stay here again.

Thank you for staying with us, we appreciate your Review yes there is a lot of stairs, especially when you’re on the top level so you’re two stories over the garage, but the viewers are worth it. Glad that you enjoyed yourself and we hope to see you again soon.
