💬 Exceptional Host Care

Welcome to Top Shelf, a beautifully updated top-floor, corner condo in the heart of Gulf Place. With incredible Gulf views, private beach access just across the street, and everything walkable, this condo is ideal for couples and families up to 4 seeking a calm, crowd-free 30A experience.

The Space
Top Shelf is thoughtfully designed for beach living. The condo is cozy in size and best suited for couples or families of up to four who plan to spend their days at the beach and enjoying the walkable area.

Storage space is streamlined, and many guests choose to pack lighter or use hallway wall space for luggage. What the condo may lack in square footage, it more than makes up for in location, views, comfort, and convenience.

Condo very clean . Great view of beach and sunsets. Kelli very helpful, great communication!
10 / 10Outstanding·Dec 2025
The condo was very nicely appointed and had a very nice view of the beach. We knew it wouldn't be a clear view, but still it was nice. We appreciated the chairs & umbrellas on the back porch. Location was great with restaurants and markets nearby.We could have used better directions to actually find the building however. It would have been very easy to say it's the first blue building facing the road, go around to the back, and it's on the 4th floor to the right. With all the emails the owner sent over a period of 2 months (something like 17 emails) this was the only thing not explicitly covered. Lots and lots of do's and dont's in those emails, too.

Great view of the beach. 4-5 minutes from leaving our door to sitting in the sand.The pool in the condo was closed for resurfacing, and we were not aware until we arrived. It would not have changed our plans and there are other pools on the property--but it should be disclosed.
