10 / 10Outstanding·Apr 2026
Fantastic week there, unit was generously sized with a well-equipped kitchen. The lanai was wonderful and our tween spent hours just hanging out there. Our son fished the pond and looked for turtles and at the birds, also spent hours on the IC dock. Great spot for coffee or wine while he fished! The unit was very clean and the neighborhood as well. The amenities were great- grills that we used multiple times, nice pools and pickle ball courts, I wish they had a set to use at the house though. The beach items in the garage were very helpful too- especially the carts. The walk over to the beach is pleasant and certainly easier than parking!
8 / 10Excellent·Mar 2026
The host was very communicative before and during the stay. The condo was fine, clean and well appointed. A Keurig would be nice to add. Our only complaints are low quality paper products, no facial tissues, broken window blinds, and a missing pole for the beach umbrella.
10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
We had a wonderful stay! The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. It’s in a perfect location—just a short walk to the beach and close to restaurants and shops. The home is very family-friendly, with great amenities including access to beautiful pools and tons of beach gear—chairs, umbrellas, toys, and more. Everything was so convenient and well thought out. The owners were incredibly attentive and quick to respond to any questions, which made our stay even better. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!
6 / 10Average·Mar 2025
The neighborhood is great! Both pools easy to access. Trolley stop is close, & beach access convenient, although a bit of a walk to the sand. Unfortunately, the unit needs some work. Upon arrival for our 2-week stay, we noticed the lanai was filthy, the cushions old & faded, mold on walls & sliders, broken screens, stained placemats on table, & a rug in tatters. iTrip did send someone to re-clean that area, but it still felt dirty. Pics are outdated. Beds & living space were clean, plenty of closet space; the bathrooms are great. The kitchen has a few warped pans, & one back burner on stove doesn't work. Most of the in- & under-cabinet lights are burned out. Most of the window shutters are broken. The placemats on kitchen table are also torn. The walls are pretty beat up, especially 2nd bedroom & kitchen. The dryer probably needs the vent cleaned, as it took awhile to dry anything. Bring your own dishtowels, as there was only 1. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, but didn't use the porch or kitchen as much as we would've liked. I'd recommend another unit in Gulf & Bay before this one.
