Great location

This is a great location. Close to everything from attractions, restaurants and shopping. The beach access is awesome and the views are spectacular. The only thing we found was the bed was a bit harsh for our liking. We also found in many others of these types rentals some spices, coffee left over from other guests. Not a deal breaker just was odd to fin nothing for cooking. I understand it maybe for safety reasons.

Mom & Daughter trip

I stayed here with my teenage daughter for a short weekend trip. We arrived very late but was still able to message someone about questions I had which was great! The place was clean and looked nice. There was enough basics pots, pants and dishes to make and eat food. The pool was nice and clean and wasn’t over crowded. The location is nice because I love being right on the beach. It’s also close to a gas station and stuff to venture out and do. Our bathroom light flickered on and off all weekend but I let the place know when we left so hopefully it’s fixed now. Great place for a couple People to stay and enjoy the beautiful beach.

7th Floor Condo on the beach & close to shopping

The criteria that we used to select accommodations were to be on the gulf, be close to the pier, and total cost. During the selection process, I didn’t realize there was a 3D tour available and I didn’t read the individual reviews but, I did look at the individual photographs. I did consider the overall rating. After we returned home, I did take the 3D tour and read several of the reviews. After checking in Vacasa asked us to rate the cleanliness of the accommodations. We rated it as a 2. There was some food at the drain in the kitchen sink, there was mold at the tub – tile interface, and some of the bathroom corners were dirty. After we checked out, Vacasa sent me an email asking us to review the accommodations but, it didn’t work. I contacted them but, Vacasa never emailed a link that worked. The view of the Gulf from the window was excellent, the location was convenient, the bed was very comfortable, and the Vacasa Office staff were polite. The anti-slip pads were still missing from the bottom of the tub which made the tub slippery. The tile – tub interface needed to be cleaned and caulked. The shower rod was rusty. Enamel was coming off the tub. The bathroom was dusty and needed a deep cleaning. The bed frame blocked part of the TV screen if you were watching TV while lying in bed. The unit was not well lit. We would not stay there again.

Short getaway

This studio was good value for a short weekend getaway, and it served its purpose of having a place to lay our heads at night; however, it would not be ideal for a longer stay as the condo does need some TLC. There were a few areas needing patching and painting on the walls and ceiling. Some areas in the bathroom of rust and in need of re-caulking. The shower head was very noisy, as well as the bathroom fan. The bathroom sink also didn’t drain well either. In addition, it was supposed to be a smoke free property; however, someone was smoking cigarettes and something else and it would filter into the condo and it was very unpleasant. Also, the listing says beach service included; however, it was first come first serve basis. So had we not gone downstairs at 7:30am to secure chairs, we would not have had any. The listing should be updated to say - beach chairs included on 1st come, 1st serve basis. Some additional niceties would have been a long mirror outside the bathroom for checking outfits, etc. Overall, it was good value for the money and the time we were staying, but definitely could use some attention.

Non smoking facility???

My biggest complaint was occupants a few floors down were smoking marijuana on the balcony. It trailed upwards straight into our room. I’m sure ours wasn’t the only one that was affected. Our rental agreement stated “no smoking on the premesis”. When we called to complain the HOA manager was downstairs and said “it’s okay to smoke on balcony.” When did the balconies not belong to the “premises”?? So multiple times, the smell was so pungent that we could taste it and totally changed my opinion about where we stayed. We stayed in this same location the past 2 years and loved it. People who have rental agreements need to be told that smoking tobacco and marijuana is permitted on balconies so patrons like me will look elsewhere. Very dissatisfied

Perfect

Everything about this place is perfect. •5 min walk to a store. ●$6-$10 dollar ubers with little to no wait to get to restaurants, attractions, activities. Just far enough away to be out of the way. Not to far to be in the mix of everything. •Uber eats will deliver anything!! •Movies and drinks on site. •A great beach setup with chairs and umbrella. U can rent boards and floats and stuff also. •The staff that we did see where EXTREMELY nice and helpful. •My favorite check in ever. •Don't really need Cash for anything. •I didn't have to see or even talk to a soul.. •Could use a new mattress, but honestly I slept just fine!!!

We enjoyed our stay.

We enjoyed our stay. It was a nice studio apartment. Only complaint is...as with any time at the beach you will get alot of sand on your feed, which we did so I went to store and purchased a out door mat to help with this issue. It was there less than than 24 hours when someone removed it. We went to office and spoke to manager...he listened to us and then we were told that outside mats are not allow. They are removed and deposed of. My complaint is that they did not let us know so we could pick it up so we could bring it home with us. However, over all we did enjoy our stay.
