    I didn’t like 1 room with bunk beds and full bed. In all was nice.

    We loved this condo! Plenty of room for us and the kids. Having a 3rd bathroom is such a time saver when getting ready to go out! We will definitely consider staying here again! Thank you!

    The condo is just lovely with lots of amenities. The beach is beautiful and just a few steps away. There was some construction and painting going on around the building while we were here, but it was manageable and the crew was very nice and accommodating. We would stay here again!

    We enjoyed staying here and are likely to return. The only complaint would be loud construction work every day beginning around 8:30am.

    We were not given the checkin code ahead of time and I couldn't reach the property manager finally VRBO was able to reach them after multiple attempts. I also messaged 2 days before checkin asking for an early checkin and never even got a response. The inside is nice enough but the furniture and rugs are worn and dingy. The walls and ceiling in master bedroom/bath have dust hanging off them and mold growing on ceiling shower. For the price we paid I expected better. We still had a great time and the location/beach is wonderful. They just need to do a deep clean and consider replacing furnishings as they get dirty.

    We love staying at Wind Drift because of the location. It is a short walk from the condo to the water. We also love that it doesn’t seem as busy as a lot of other condos. There’s no building next to it, so you have lots of room to spread out. My only complaint is that this room had some areas that needed to be deep cleaned and the rugs were pretty dirty. Loved the ice machine and my kids LOVED the bunk beds. Overall it’s a great unit.

    Very good overall! Just a couple of minor maintenance issues. Loved the ice maker. Would rent same unit again!

    Condo was very nice and clean. Arrived to what was advertised! No overwhelming items but some small frustrations with the online payment system for parking. Back bedroom closet to the entrance has a window that does not block the glaring light at night and the beautiful balcony overlooking the beach had no working light…

    Property mgr. was very helpful and kind. The condo itself needed some cosmetic repairs and updates. The photos on VERBO made it look so new & lovely- which wasn’t quite the case. We had difficulty with the code for opening the gate into the parking lot on a couple occasions.
