Third time staying here. Great property and fabulous beach. Thank you for supplying umbrellas and beach chairs. Easy walk to great restaurants too which was a plus.

We enjoyed our stay. Location was great. Apartment is spacious and very well equipped. I only has a suggestion to fix some of the little things like the doors of the cabinets, caulking around shower, shower head pressure and other minor maintenance things.

Reviewer Comments:
We have stayed here before, in this unit as well as other units. Always a good experience, so didn't hesitate to book again. This time Unit 1 was in need of an update and a thorough cleaning. It's a great setting,with a beautiful view of the Gulf, so if it's cleaned and maintained, it would be really nice...just a little disappointed this trip. Property manager was friendly, but we didn't really want to spend our week having the unit worked on.
