The condo was every bit as wonderful as promised and shown in the online photos. Everything we could have needed was supplied, including bath supplies, dishes, serving bowls and cookware. The well-equipped kitchen included a countertop oven that handled roasting, broiling, and air-frying when the full-sized oven wasn’t needed. The standout here is, of course, the proximity to the sugar-sand beach and emerald water of the Gulf of Mexico, both on extensive display from the open-concept main room and the wall of windows in the master bedroom. First-floor access to the beach is an easy walk to the walkway over the dunes. In season, a couple of beach chairs under an umbrella are provided free of charge and set up daily by a service.While the well-appointed condo, beach views, and proximity would be sufficient to make this unit a standout for a vacation, it’s the attentiveness of the hosts of this condo that seals the deal, as other reviewers have noted. From the quick responses I received to questions before our arrival to the comprehensive communications I received when roof maintenance threatened to disrupt our stay, the hosts kept in contact with us, providing updates on the work, even going so far as to send pictures of the progress and completion schedule, as well as contacting condo board members on site for reports. Their attentiveness, concern and efforts regarding the situation and addressing our concerns went above and beyond our expectations.
