Three night beach vacation
We chose this property for our quick 3 night beach vacation.
You can tell the condo complex is a bit older. However, this unit is nicely remodeled and had all the basic amenities. My kids really enjoyed the pool and the community game room.
The view of the gulf from the primary bedroom was great. Also the boardwalk out to the beach was nice, although we really only used it for quick shorter walks on the beach during the mornings or evening when it was cooler. We drove out to the beach for our longer stays in order to haul all our beach stuff (shade umbrella, beach chairs, cooler, etc). We might have been able to load it all up in our collapsing wagon and walk, but I think it would have been a difficult haul back after a long day of fun (and heat) at the beach.

Nice place
We had an issue with the door handle but the property manager had someone out to fix it promptly which was great. I felt the ad made the ocean view more accessible than it actually was and the balcony was overcrowded with chairs but I would definitely stay here again.

Great location!
It was so close to the beach! A short walk. We loved the pool and game room. It was great after exhausting ourselves on the beach to return to a calm pool. Anyone who was done swimming just played games. We ordered pizza one night and had it by the pool. Great family time!

Older property but great remodel
Family of 5 staying a long weekend for a beach getaway. Very comfortable and nice upgrades in the condo. Pool is great and game room is a plus. Our 4th time in this place and will return. Wish we didn’t have to get a key and that door has code instead. Only complaint.

Port A 2021 Beach Trip
We stayed this time for 4 days and it rained heavily for 3 of those. The weather is nobody’s fault but the back units of where we stayed were flooded up to our knees in the parking area. We had to park up front and haul everything to our unit each time we left. We made a call about the issues and were told someone would come out to pumped out the water but that never happened. We then got scolded for parking up front in a parking spot that was seemingly labeled for our unit but in reality, wasn’t.
The pool and surrounding area was more beautiful than the pics due it justice and would be a great rental for a small wedding or family reunion. There was a recreational area with game tables and living room type set up as well as a nice play area for the kids (we didn’t get it use this section because it was underwater too but I can imagine it would be awesome and an added bonus when the weather permits).

Great little getaway spot steps from the beach!
This is a great place to stay with your family! It is about a five minute walk to the beach on a private boardwalk. The boardwalk is narrow but we were able to easily navigate a double jogging stroller and beach wagon.
Pros:
- super clean property.
- private boardwalks to the beach.
- nice pool.
- bunk beds were great for our kids. We have twin toddlers and brought a bed railing for the bottom bunk to help trap them in at night.
- kitchen had all the utensils, pots, and pans needed for cooking.
-they provided makeup remover wipes, and extra toiletries which was nice!
Cons:
- this unit is on the third floor and there is not an elevator. It was tough taking everything (including our toddlers) up and down those steps.
- we chose this property because it had a great little playground pictured as well. That picture is outdated because the playground no longer has a slide and looks like it’s falling apart.
-our parking area was flooded a bit from the rain.
- we couldn’t find a regular kitchen broom anywhere.
Tips-
- bring your own trash bags. The ones provided rip very easily.
-bring your own iron if you need one.

Great for kids
Very clean and comfortable and perfect beach access. The walls are thick, so you don't hear noise from other condos. We will def stay again!
My wishes for the property: it would have been nice to find simple pantry items like oil and sugar; beach towels and/or a washer/dryer would be nice.
Overall, we loved it!

Beach condo perfect for our family of 5
This condo had 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and a great location to beach and town. 3rd floor balcony has 6 chairs and view of beach. The pool was nice and clean. There is also a game room onsite with Ping pong, foosball, and air hockey.
