Exactly how it looks

My wife, two teenagers, and I really enjoyed our stay. The kids enjoyed their own rooms and bathrooms. The furniture was comfortable with views of the Gulf from the living room and even better views from the balcony. Easy access to the beach through the pool area.

Great Vacation

We had a wonderful stay. The condo was clean and safe and had direct access to their pool and beach front. We really enjoyed the living space, kitchen, and the 3 bedrooms with their own bathrooms. Jimmy and Terry were great to work with when we had questions about how to use the fan remotes and the new digital lock on the front door. We will recommend this condo to others and will hopefully stay there again.

The condo was beautiful. The view from the balcony was absolutely stunning. We saw the dolphins playing in the water. The sunset was amazing. Only down side was there wasn't a frying pan kinda hard to make food without one. All in all we had a great time & will definitely be back.

Great location

Overall we had a great trip. The smaller size of the building meant we didn’t have to wait for the elevator and there was plenty of parking. The condo was very roomy, my kids were happy to each have their own room and bathroom, that is hard to find in beach listings. There was plenty of seating and we never felt cramped. The unit itself could benefit from some updating in the kitchen and master bathroom.

Family Vacation

Mr. Garrett, was very easy to work with. The booking and paying for our stay was very easy. The condo was clean upon our arrival. We had 5 adults, so the 2 queen and 1 king size beds worked great for us. The balcony was a little small, but you are at the beach, so not much time spent on the balcony😀. We would definitely stay at this location or another one of Mr. Garrett's properties.
