Great Location, Great Service!You can’t beat this location! We loved watching the sunrise from our own private bayside deck (or down at the condo’s dock) and walking just 5 minutes to the gulf side for the sunset.The gulf beach is beautiful! It’s a bit rough on sensitive feet until you get closer to the water, though. You can spend hours searching for shark teeth, seeing thousands of shells, or simply swimming in the water or laying out on the beach. Just make sure to set up your beach chairs directly in front of the Sunburst condos, as the neighboring properties own the beach areas in front of their buildings.Listing clarifications: The unit is on the bayside (the listing made it look like the gulf side), and the "private" pool is shared by the Sunburst complex, not private to the unit. I asked the host about these beforehand, so we knew what to expect, and they mentioned updating the listing. Regardless, the pool was clean, never crowded, and my kids loved it!AC & Service: On our second night, the AC struggled, and the indoor temp climbed to 84F. I contacted the property manager, Chris, who was fantastic to work with. He immediately sent technicians out. While the AC struggled for the rest of our stay, Chris was incredibly accommodating and even provided fans to help circulate the air.Overall: Because of Chris's great communication and the unbeatable location, I would definitely recommend this unit, assuming the air conditioning has been fully fixed!

This property was in a perfect location between Lemon Bay and the Gulf (we stayed on the Bay side). Unit was spotless and had everything we needed to cook all of our meals. Nice touch that there was bottled water, In Kind protein bars and a bag of chips waiting for us! Also, there was a small issue with the A/C but Chris with the VueStay Management Company quickly addressed it - great customer service! Highly recommend this property!
