Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The was nice and clean however there are a few issues in the room that needs some attention and upgrading. The secondary bathroom door was very hard to open after you closed it. It would get stuck and a couple of times our granddaughter wasn’t able to get out of the bathroom without her dad forcing the door open. The mattress in the master bedroom had big dips in it and a big hump right in the middle and was very uncomfortable. The TV in the living room was very old and outdated could’ve been better with a smart TV. Addressing these issues could have made our stay much better!

Thank you, Carla, for sharing your thoughts with us. We’re glad to hear that you found the space nice and clean, but we truly appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention. It’s important to us that every guest feels comfortable and at ease during their stay. We’re sorry to hear about the issues with the secondary bathroom door and the mattress in the master bedroom. That shouldn’t have happened, and we understand how frustrating it must have been, especially with your granddaughter involved. We also recognize that having an updated TV can enhance the experience, and we’re committed to making improvements where needed. Your feedback is invaluable as we strive to provide a consistently comfortable environment for our guests. We’re on it and will ensure these matters are addressed promptly.

Excellent stay

This oceanfront condo was perfect for a family of 4. It is in a great location, clean, spacious, the kitchen is well stocked and there is great communication from the Vacasa company. We loved the 2 beach chairs and umbrella that came with the condo. The gym is small but usable. I’d stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay. The property on the beach is alway a plus. The place was clean. My only complaint is that They were under construction to renovate the property, so the balcony was closed. Other than that everything was great. Will definitely recommend this property and will go back

Great place to stay

This was a good room, except the master bath toilet needed worked, which was. The AC fan just outside the master BR was loud. It sounded like something was loose. No coffee pot to make coffee, but was resolved by a new coffee maker.

The balcony picture is untrue. It shows 6 chairs on it. It could barely have 4. I was disappointed that the picture of the balcony next door was used to advertise in this ad.

The cleaning team is not doing their job properly. The floors were filthy. The souls of our feet wre black. I sent a picture of my sister's feet shortly after our arrival. Received a reply that they would be back in touch with me and never heard from them again. Other then that, all was well.

Dirty

All of the floors were nasty like they hadn’t been cleaned in weeks. There was still sand all over the floor. Two beds had stains. There was dirt and hair in the master bathtub. We purchased cleaning products ourselves and cleaned it. There was a lightbulb out in the guest bedroom, which I replaced. There was a knife and an old pan that the handles were falling off that they did replace. The dining table and chairs weren’t the same as pictured. The dining chairs had to have cushions put in them so we didn’t sink down in them. Some of the walls and baseboards were very dirty. It was right over the pool, so you could hear the kiddos getting loud. The best thing about it is that it was in a very good location and it was easy to get to the beach. I won’t stay there again.

Overall a great stay would give 9/10

Pros: space and layout of condo, decor was nice, view was unbeatable, communication with Vacasa was excellent, easy check in and out without too much to do to get ready to go. Pod and drip coffee makers. Beds are comfortable. Cons: condo was clean but could use a deep cleaning (bottom of pantry had leftover popcorn, tile table could use a vacuuming, shower grout had mold under it and the edges needed wiped) lots of pots and pans but nothing else to cook like oil or even salt and pepper. Beds are noisy. Biggest con to us was if we wanted our beach chairs on the row where we could see the ocean I had to go out around 7:00 and claim them. It says 9-5 but they get set up earlier. Otherwise you got the ones in the back row where you had to look between other umbrellas to see the ocean. Our unit had a washer and which was amazing but the listing was very clear that only coin operated machines were available. Knowing there was one in the unit would have greatly reduced the amount of clothes we packed. It was a nice surprise and I hope the listing has been updated. This was our first trip to the panhandle so we had a lot to learn. We really enjoyed the deck and the beach..we spent most of our time in these two places.
