Awesome stay

The condo was perfect for my little family of 4. I loved that the complex was smaller than all of the others we’ve stayed at. The beach wasn’t overly crowded either so that was a huge plus! Meryl was awesome at getting back with me super fast when I had a question. We will definitely be using this unit again.

Great Stay

We were in town to take a family member who has recently been put in a memory care facility to multiple doctor appointments each day. After running around all day it was so nice to come back to this wonderful condo. We sat on the deck and enjoyed our view as we made many phone calls to family members with daily updates. Condo is also located close to many wonderful restaurants!!! I recommend Bahama Bobs which is just down the street. The host was very friendly and helpful when we had questions.

Great Time!

We enjoyed our stay. Upon arrival, the condo was very clean. We didn’t even feel sand on the floor (if you know, you know). Everything was nicely decorated and cozy. The main bathroom was smaller than I thought it would be but it was doable. We stayed the end of April/beginning of May. The complex was not crowded and the elevator was very fast and convenient. Communication with the owners were great. We didn’t need anything during our stay but when I did reach out they were fast to respond. Check in and out were a breeze. We accidentally left my 4 year old daughter’s new mermaid doll under the blankets in the bed and half way into our drive home I received a phone call from them offering to mail her home. That was very sweet and thoughtful. When we go back, I will be definitely booking with them again!

Nice Place to Stay

Three of us stayed for a week at the end of May. The unit was very clean and comfortable. Main bathroom is quite small but is nice to have the sink outside of the toilet and shower area. Well equipped for an extended stay. Beautiful view of the beach and water. We spent a lot of time on the patio and found that the pool area can get quite noisy especially when people decide that everyone needs to hear their music as well as having to smell the smoke from a unit below us (which clearly wasn’t cigarettes). Ty and Merrill were great to work with.

Perfect beach weekend getaway

I appreciated the updated unit and the quality of the towels, bedsheets, furniture, etc. Our stay was comfortable and clean. The unit had the essentials. Getting around the condo was super easy. Gulf views were stunning, awesome beachfront. Hosts were quick to respond and so kind. Perfect for two people, could add another 2 and not feel crowded. Only rec I have for the host is to have a dining table out on the balcony to eat meals. :) Highly recommend to stay here.

Great Stay

Very enjoyable stay. The condo was very clean, the bed was very comfortable, the check-in process was easy, and our host (Meryl) was very responsive and easy to contact. The condo was minimally stocked (no condiments, laundry soap, storage bags {ziplocks}, etc.) but I'm sure it isn't set up for long-term stays. I would definitely stay here again - we enjoyed ourselves! The weather wasn't cooperative - hurricane effect winds and rain - but nothing anyone can do about that.

Comfy, Clean Condo

we enjoyed our stay. clean and comfy condo. the balcony was very large, the provided beach towels were nice as were the extra blankets. The master bathroom is pretty tiny and there is no pantry, but we made it work! The condo building was small enough we never had a long wait for the elevators. There were some bugs in the kitchen… but being we are on the beach wasn’t too big a deal. the pool is very small but we didn’t plan on spending time in the pool area, so didn’t bother us. owners were easy to communicate with and quick to respond. there are restaurants within walking distance (.5 miles) to both the east and west which was convenient.

We had Sophun at our Sophun getaway

There were no surprises, however, I wish I would have known that the balcony rails were spaced out wide enough that my daughter could fit through. We weren't able to spend time on the balcony without having a grasp on my 15 month old. The toilet looked like it wasn't finished being cleaned when we walked in. I am sure it was just an oversight.

Property is very well maintained and very clean. Ty and Meryl were very accommodating and let us check in a couple hours early. The view of the Gulf from the balcony is amazing! The beach area, pools, and BBQ areas were not crowded and were nice and clean. The property and surrounding area was quiet and we had a nice, relaxing time. I would rent this property again in the future.
