10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Jun 2025
A friend and I stayed at this spacious, quiet 2nd floor condo May 11-18, 2025. Everything was great, no complaints. Easy access with keypad upon arrival and good communication with management. Pictures are accurate, VERY clean and comfortable. I wish I would have used the heated pool more; it was wonderful and the water temperature was perfect. Easy access, a couple of blocks, to the beautiful beach. Beach chairs, umbrella and towels are available at the condo if you want to use them. Saint Armands with many shops and restaurants is around the corner. I recommend the Columbia Restaurant, very good food (but more expensive than some other places.) They had the best Key Lime Pie. We rarely drove anywhere, one time to Publix grocery store on Longboat Key and another time to Siesta Key to take a dolphin tour. We were fortunate to have great weather, low to mid 80’s during the day (humid of course) and 70’s at night. Construction continues on the first floor condos in this complex.

6.0 / 10.0Average·Nov 2022
We have visited this property many times over the years as always we love the location proximity to St Armands and Lido Beach which is important to us. Unfortunately this most recent visit presented missteps. 1. 1st day - AC was not working although quickly rectified it is managed remotely therefore the occupants cannot adjust the AC on their own so we froze at night and were moderately comfortable during the day. Occupants need to be able.to adjust the a/c according to their needs. 2. Majority of the beach equipment in the equipment closet is worn and broken; one working umbrella and two nice chairs the rest of the equipment should be discarded. 3. It is customary for vacation rentals to offer full size toiletries for their guest - NOT tiny starter kits 4. Lighting in the condo should be updated: several lamps didn't have bulbs. 5. Better pillows must be offered; ours were flat and tired. 6. This visit the spa and pool were dirty during majority of our visit. Pool cleaning service should be more frequent when more guests/residents are present.
