Beach retreat!

So much room for personal time and plenty of space for the family together. Nothing beats going out the back door to the beach! Very clean and check in and out was a breeze.

Great quiet spot on the beach

This house was amazing for our larger group. Plenty of room for everyone. The beach was beautiful and not crowded at all. We got to see dolphins everyday. Would definitely stay again.

Great beach getaway

The townhome is beautiful and exactly as shown and described. We had everything we needed for our stay. It’s a quiet neighborhood but not a far drive to the restaurants and boardwalk. The views are beautiful. Check in and out was easy and the management company responded very promptly and kindly to any questions we had. I would definitely recommend for a family vacation.

Great Stay

Location was perfect! House was very nice and clean! Only complaint was the AC didn’t keep up very well but still cool enough to manage. We would definitely come back!

Perfect Location & Accommodations

We absolutely loved being on the beach and everything we needed was at our fingertips. The house was beautiful and was well appointed. The kitchen was fully stocked with all we needed to cook our meals and the dining table was big enough to sit our family of 8 comfortably. We will be staying again next year.

Thrilled with our stay!

This was the best vacation rental we’ve found yet. Beautiful, well furnished townhouse, very clean, with beautiful ocean views. Very comfortably accommodated 6 adults with 4 small children. Elevator from garage super helpful for luggage, groceries…. Hot tub in great working order. Shared pools were great and not crowded. Close to boardwalk and restaurants. We will go back!

Fantastic Condo

Updated Condo with every comfort of home! Spacious with great floor plan and our family loved the elevator for convenience from the garage to the upper floors. It was very nice to have a garage large enough for all of our cars too. Beach access was great! Just a short walk and the private beach area was never crowded. The only con was the internet service was not very reliable and didn’t work throughout the week. There were some repairs that needed to be completed in the ceiling over the dining table where it looked like there had been water damage but it did not interfere with our stay. Would definitely recommend this unit and we plan to return again in the future.

Very clean and spacious

Very nice. Plenty of room for everyone. The stand alone ice maker didnt work and neither did the ice maker in the fridge/freezer but the maintenance crew brought us bags of ice as we needed them, which was great

Wonderful beach location

The property had all the amenities we wanted, plenty of room to spread out, a large garage and even an elevator. The only issue we ran into was a leaking dishwasher that also had a derailed basket. Although a nice man stopped by, noted a broken seal and said the repair company would contact us, by the time they did, it was too late to do us any good.

Great trip!

We had 12 people and mostly teenagers and adults. Added in a couple of air mattresses for the little ones and worked out great. House was beautiful and most friends nearby ended up at our place for game nights and cooking. My only complaints would be that there are no window coverings in the master. It’s beautiful at first but then you get woken up at 5:30am every morning by the sun it is not so beautiful anymore. If curtains were added would be perfect. Thermometer was preset to get pretty hot during the day. We figured out how to fix settings thank goodness and all was well. Elevator was finicky, but also very helpful. Back sliding glass needs a little work. Kids couldn’t open and even grown men had to use two hands and muscle to open. Other than those few things I will say it was loaded with niceties and beautiful. Location to beach couldn’t be beat. I would like to see them add some updated chairs and umbrellas to their house stock. Most chairs had tears and falling apart. Hated to buy more and have to leave them there.

Excellent with few exceptions

I am a native Floridian and have seen every beach in the state in my life. I live in Miami now. Pensacola Beach is THE BEST beach in the state, so any property directly on the beach automatically makes it 3 stars. This place is as good or better than the pictures make it look. This was a family vacation with 9 people between 2 years - 54 years and everyone had a great time. The views, quick access to the beach, kitchen and overall living quarters are amazing! The elevator is a HUGE convenience. I'd definitely stay here again. EXCEPTIONS: I don't want to sound like I'm just complaining so I want to reiterate how great the overall experience was. However, if you are comparing beach front places on Pcola Bch you notice this is a higher priced unit. If you are like me, you expect to pay more to get "the best". The first 3 days the Wifi (which you must have to use the AMAZING Sonos sound system) worked fine, then it went out. I texted and emailed the management company (you can't speak with anyone) over the next 1 1/2 days and they finally sent maintenance. They kept telling me to reset the modem, which I advised appeared to be locked in the owner's closet. Once they sent maintenance, they had to remove the hinges from the closet to get in. We reset the modem, it appeared to work, but sadly didn't. Overall, a VERY frustrating experience. BTW - our cell service was non-existent inside the unit (good for safety, bad when no wifi). Another issue is the lack of blind/drapes in the master suite. It gets daylight at 5:45am in Pcola in the summer. IF you want to sleep in on vacation it's not very likely you want to sleep in the master suite. And lastly, the A/C resetting itself to 79 degrees periodically can cause some hot temps in bedrooms unexpectedly. Be sure you learn the cycle and manually reset so the place stays cool. If you've never been to Pcola Beach you will LOVE IT!!

Family Holiday Week

I have been searching for 8 months on the right place for my family to come here from Wis for a solid week. It had to meet requirements; close to the beach, elevator, Hot tub, pools, lots of room, and HUGE kitchen an large garage. This place had it all. My mom had mobility issues so the elevator came in very handy along with stocking up the kitchen and luggage. The sunsets/sunrises were the best. I slept better than I did at home. The Kitchen in this place ROCKED! We cooked some gourmet meals that required a few people in the kitchen and no one got in each other's way. There was a separate bar and still a very large living area. The second frig was convenient along with the washer and dryer especially during a ext stay. Not to mention the upper level master bedroom with beautiful bathroom. The bathroom has a tv, seamer in the walk in shower, large tub and plenty of counter space. Lastly if you needed anything all the Staff at GCG was excellent! They were always there to support you. In ending I would Highly recommend this rental to entertain a large group, family visit or a 3 to 4 couples get away.

Needs updating and better inspection

The is a beautiful place and could have been 5 stars if the hot tub worked, the dishwasher wasn’t falling apart and the refrigerator door worked properly. For being inspected I’m surprised that the hot tub was allowed to pass with only a half full tub of cold water and sand filled seats. It wasn’t even operational. After calling maintenance, we were told that friends of the owner would know how to fix it, but they never showed up. The weather was not great this weekend and we we’re really counting on using that tub! I feel some restitution is in order. Also several items in the kitchen were not clean prior to our arrival and the soap dish in the master bedroom was full of dry soap scum. It’s a real shame. The unit could be heavenly here.

Rainy days better than no days at the beach.

The hand rail was filthy in this day of disease transmission flu like sicknesses was a massive over sight by the staff and management. Management offered to have the cleaners come back in but we had cleaned up already. I mean it was filthy sticky obvious black finger prints and smears. I sent picks to staff of the rags I used to clean up. No directions as the ingnighter doesn’t work on the barbecue or lighter left for me to light the gas. The handyman came prepared and was perfect for the job helping me get the old unit going and it worked great. The gas did stay on even though I had shut it off at the burners so for someone that doesn’t know to shut it off underneath this is a serious concern. The glass doors take Herculean effort to open and close and leak even bad enough that the carpet was wet over to the bed in the master by the time we left. It rained sideways for parts of two days. I am allergic to mold and was showing signs mold was present in the space by the time we left. That could have been from the tons of rotting sea weed on the beach however. I would test these units quarterly if I were you as a cover for any liability. Some grout was missing in the first floor shower threshold. There are electrical lighting issues flickering lights in the middle bath and control with the dimmer in the main living space was not effortless. The dimmer makes arcing sounds and may need to be changed. Security was great location was great the two and half days in the sun was great the storms were great the night sky was great the Appliances and TVs the ice machine double oven dishwasher beds towels sheets comforters blankets all great ( the water filter in the fridge was s l o w . There were no directions on how to use the sound system but the managers responded within the hour with directions. I’d give the entire stay a B+ We are thankful for the use of this unit and it was one of our better most relaxed enjoyable locations if only the weather had cooperated. Kind regards Patti and Andrew
