The location was great. Near shopping, food and the beach. The condo was updated but needed so maintenance (floor, towel racks and closet doors). Property management was poor. Very unhelpful. We reported a homeless person camping near our vehicle on the property and was told that WE needed to contact a local shelter and that it was not managements concern. The property was also not very clean. The floors have not been swept and mopped properly. Hair in the bathroom floor, visible dirt on cabinet handles, fridge handles and sink. There were also crumbs under the placemat on the kitchen table.

Nice and Fragrant
Nice small condo facing Gulf Blvd and public beach parking. Not a lot of amenities for cooking, just the bare basics. The Condo had at least 4 electronic “room fresheners”, which were overpowering.

At the Beach
Condo decorated nicely. Comfy Bed. On the beach where cabanas are available. Small pool. Pool chairs need updated. Condo is located right across the street from Publix, Dollar Tree, and restaurants. Easiest to walk as the road is super busy.

Perfect getaway
My husband and I found this to be a perfect spot for our vacation. The unit had great, beachy decor and was very clean & accommodating. The building is in a great central location and within walking distance to pretty much everything you could need. The pool area is a bit small but we prefer the beach, so that wasn’t really an issue for us.

Excellent place to stay!
The bed in the master was comfy and the kitchen and bath were beautiful. My only complaint was the sliding door sticks and the tv didn’t work. The internet was weak and I worked remotely for the week so that was an issue.

Nice condo on beach
We enjoyed our stay here. Very clean condo that is right on the beach. It is close to the grocery store and several beach bars/ restaurants are within walking distance. Second full bathroom was a plus. The use of the beach chairs was nice also. Will look to stay here again in the future.

Property states it sleeps 4. You should be specific that this means 2 adults and 2 children.
We had 4 adults, the Trundle bed was only large enough to sleep 2 kids. Do not rent this place if you have more than two adults. The water heater worked occasionally. Out of the 4 nights we spent, we only were able to to take two hot showers. The maintenance company that the water heater is too small for the number of appliances, and only one faucet could be run at a time. Maybe the owner should consider upgrading this so that the guests can have hot showers. Feel like a refund of some sort should be offered.

St Pete beach condo.
The welcome basket was a nice touch. Great condo. Unfortunately it did not have a view of the ocean but the building is on the beach. We did have a problem with the cable. Teaming worked with us to fix. Overall very pleased.

amazing beach property
we loved the condo. it was perfect for my family of 4. The bed was extremely comfortable and the pull out couch was great for the kiddos. loved being able to walk right on the beach. we also spent a lot of time at the pool as well. everyone that stays there was so friendly. the sea turtle right across the street was wonderful for breakfast. the location of this condo was perfect. close to amazing restaurants, Sandbar Bills was in walking distance which was great for night drinks and the kids could play in the sand. we will definitely be back again! my only minor complaint was when we were gathering up to leave, the cleaning lady was waiting outside our door for us to exit. I understand we were close to check out time. however, it just seemed rushy.
