Wonderful

This is such a lovely condo. The location can’t be beat! You’re directly on the beach - views of waves, sand, sunsets, and dolphins. The furnishings are very nice. The kitchen is small, but completely usable. There are stairs - the only drawback for anyone with ambulatory issues. It’s simply an awesome place to stay.

Great stay close to beach

Close to beach with direct beach view. Place is nice with covered parking. Kitchen was small and off to itself. The two bedrooms are upstairs with two full bathrooms and one half bath room down stairs. Every one complained about the sheets too small, I had to pull them out from bottom of bed, they were just tucked way under mattress. All in all a good vacation spot.

Have stayed in this unit several years and love it. The unit needs a new washing machine but we made it through the week. Also, we had a small child with us and I think it would be better to have less items that are glass. All of the tables are glass. It would be easy for them to be hurt.

Great location

The pictures indicate that the townhome is a lot bigger than it actually is. Kitchen is very small and not well stocked. The washing machine did not work and the dry cycle on the dishwasher was broken. The beds need to be replaced in both bedrooms. However, despite the faults the location is amazing and the unit was clean and the complex was quiet. Pool is very nice with the deep end being 9 ft! Our girls trip was relaxing and exactly what we needed. Note: there are 15 stairs to get to the unit and another 12 to the bedrooms. This was not a problem for us but might be for someone else.

Great View on the Beach

Gulfside Townhouse #40 is a great place to stay. Split floor plan allows those who go to be early or sleep in late to not be disturbed by those downstairs watching television, cooking, or eating. Balcony is nice with a great view of the beach. Reserved parking is wonderful.

Nice place overall

Listing states sleeps 6, that’s a bit of an exaggeration, 4-5 at most is more accurate. We had a group of 5 and sleeping was crowded. Very nice place inside but housekeeping was lacking!! I did an initial video walk-through on check-in and there was stuff under one of the beds and 1 toilet was not flushed 🤢the dining table had not been wiped and the carpet on stairs had stuff everywhere on the top 3-4 steps. There was a box for a newly installed thermostat laying in the bedroom floor and the paperwork for install was on a nightstand. The handle for fridge was not secure so opening was a bit tricky. The towel bar was broke off wall in 1 bathroom and was laying under the bed. The internet went out at one point. Access to the beach is amazing! The view is amazing in this unit! The pool is well maintained and clean! The photos of the unit make it appear much larger but overall I would recommend (⭐️7/10). I do believe for the size & lack of detail with housekeeping, the unit was a bit overpriced for our 5 night stay.

Vacation

We had a wonderful stay here. There is plenty of room and it was super clean. The closeness and access to the beach is great especially with kids. We did have a problem with the windows leaking during the hard rains on a couple of nights. Anything that was in the floor was completely soaked. That definitely will not stop us from coming back. Thank you for a great stay.
