Great view!

This unit was great for our family. The view of the beach was great and you also had a view of the pool. The location in the building was perfect because it is located next to the stairs. We had plenty of room for everyone to spread out and everything we needed was included. We will definitely stay here again. Awesome place!

This was a great condo for us - 3bedrooms each with their own bathroom. There was plenty livingroom area with lots of comfortable seating and the kitchen was spacious as well. Kitchen was well stocked with plates, glasses, flatwear, etc. Beautiful pool and sunsets from the balcony. Our ONLY issue was Hurricane Isias. We had to evacuate the premise the day after we got there. We were able to return for the last 2 nights before we left, and we had a great time while we were there. No one can control the weather (well, yes we could - but it may be too late!) so it was disapointing to have to evacuate for four days. We made the best of it, and I would return to this property ANYTIME - hurricane or not!

Clean, roomy, easy access. When I arrived, I found three very minor things to complain about... rental company had 2 of them addressed 1st day, and the last a day later. Excellent service, friendly, prompt, good communications. Check in is 4pm, on site office closes at 5. If you don't make that window, you have to use a temp parking tag the 1st day. Made me a bit nervous, but it was fine. Getting a parking tag at the office was quick and easy. Beach is great. Beach service, condo included 2 chairs and a useless umbrella... too short to actually get under. Pool is fine... 5' max depth. We didn't use grills or exercise room, but they looked fine. Fishing pier is 2.2 miles east. Breakfast place a few hundred yards west is excellent, but pricey. Few restaurants on the island, what's there is pricey. The Shack, on the other side of that bridge, has the best seafood we found. Gulfarium - go while you still can, most of these places are gone these days. It's a bit dated, but worth the time... again, a bit pricey. Sensing a trend here. Main headache was the bridge onto the island. Construction, lots of traffic... took an hour to get 3 miles back onto the island after dinner on the mainland one night. Hopefully, that'll clear up when the new bridge is done. Hurricane Isaias blew into town two days after we left. Didn't impact us at all, but I understand it got pretty ugly. Here's hoping the place made it through in good shape. I'd be happy to book this condo again, next time we vaca to the Emerald coast.

Best Condo we have ever rented!

We loved everything about this condo! With 6 adults, it can get a little tight but we had plenty of room and loved that each room had its own decent-sized bathroom! The kitchen is well stocked with lots of pots and pans. There were a couple of baking dishes too! The unit is just as described in the pictures!

Great place to stay!

We stayed in 2003 and were very happy with the accommodation. The condo was clean, comfy & the beach was amazing. Ease of check in & check out was the best experience we've ever had & we didn't have to do a bunch of work when we left. There were just a few easy requests that took only minutes to complete. The cupboards were stocked with all kinds of utensils and really everything & more than we needed. The resort is kept clean & you can tell management takes pride in their facility. If we get to visit this area again we will definitely be back!

Delightful

Great condo! The living area and master are spacious. Other 2 bedrooms and kitchen are small but fine. Full size washer & dryer! Nice view but it feels almost like sea level so next time I’d stay on the 3rd or 4th floor for better view of colorful ocean. Fitness area is very small and doesn’t open until 9am. Pool doesn’t open until 9am (you literally cannot get in before). Close to lots of restaurants. Very nice condo.

Islander Resort

This was perfect for my entire family. We had 3 kiddos under the age of 4, 3 sets of immediate families, and PLENTY of room. The views were gorgeous. Our second floor room looked directly at the ocean. It's a sweet, quiet place that was just perfect. The condo was really spacious for my handicapped father as well. The ONLY thing I wish would have been different would be for there to be a pull out couch/sofa bed. You've got to stay here! It's wonderful.

Cats!!!!!!!!

We were not aware of cats being in the condo previously. It should be disclosed to renters. My daughter is allergic to cats and didn’t have a great stay. We had to keep sliding doors open and air off.

Tropical depression

With a tropical depression in the Gulf, we could not enjoy the beach. Double red flags five of the days we were there and seaweed the other days. I know you have no control over weather or seaweed, still disappointed. The condo itself was very nice, enjoyed being able to see Gulf, even if could not get in it. Grandkids kept wanting to know why I picked this week if weather was going to be bad, told them didn't know when I made reservations.

Thank you so much for your reservation. We appreciate your feedback and will always try our very best to make your vacation as perfect as it can be within our control. It is unfortunate that there was bad weather during your stay. I wish we could change that, but obviously we cannot. As much as we appreciate your reviews of our property, we do ask our guests to leave a rating based on the actual property and not the weather. Again, we appreciate your business, and hope to see you again next year.

First of all I would like to thank the people involved in reserving this condominium. We're given instructions week or two before we even left Kentucky had no problems throughout our stay the interior of the condominium was absolutely beautiful loved the mirrored walls so that you could see the ocean anywhere you looked in the living room very clean found everything we needed from kitchen ware to bed linens we were well taken care of I kept looking for somebody to come in and cook for it lol guess that didn't come with the package sure appreciate everyone who is involved to make our summer vacation so wonderful I took my three sons 21, 19and 17 and they thoroughly enjoyed It. I can't wait to come back next year thank you again to everyone involved.
