Sterling Reef 1401 - Beachfront, Pools, Corner Unit, Sleeps 8! Free Activities!

Good beach view and lovely beach. Condo itself was very pedestrian/corporate and outfitted with hotel like furniture. This was exactly what was advertised and it exactly met expectations at a very good price. The beach is awesome the town of PCB is a second or third rate Destin. The best part of the condo is its 4 minute walk to the fishing pier.

Nice place to stay.

The location and overall grounds of the condo were perfect. It was centrally located to many activities, the pool area was amazing, and the beach was perfect. The hitch to this trip was the overall experience of the condo. Upon our arrival it was clean but after only an hour in the condo our feet were black from the floors being so dirty. When you looked closer you could tell it was lightly mopped. In addition the beds were horrible. The mattresses where extremely uncomfortable having us contemplating leaving early. You can feel every spring in them and are jostled every moment of the other person in the bed The other mind blowing portion was that some of the beds were only made with sheets and no comforter (thicker blanket). When asked about it the property managers stated that they do not communicate with the cleaners so they would have no idea. They did offer to bring them to us but seemed inconvenienced and were not kind nor apologetic of the situation. Overall the cleanliness of the condo was not a place I would book again. When you consider the price for the condo for a week the beds and cleanliness were less than mediocre at best. As a family of 7 those are important factors for us while traveling but may not be for others but this was my take on our experience and review.

When we arrived, the security guard informed us that we had to pay a 50 parking fee, which was not disclosed on the front page. When we entered the house, we realize the floors had not been cleaned so we decided to check the bed linens which were also dirty. The kitchen and one bathroom was clean. One bathroom was dirty. Contacted panhandles and they could not get sheets out to us until 11 PM that night. Cleaning crew would not be able to come until the next day so we went to the store and bought a mop and cleaned it ourselves. The next morning, the elevators broke and we had to walk down 14 flights of steps. Finally got one elevator working, but it was a disaster with only one working elevator and a large unit so we walked down the steps most of the time and waited 20 to 45 minutes every time to go up. Will never stay here again.

Enjoy it. Nice place

Subpar, kitchen, air conditioner, filter and air conditioner were filthy, broken towels, missing, lightbulbs, rusty, shower rods, beds were missing pieces, popcorn, falling off the ceiling, standing water with mold in the air conditioning, closet, mold on the walls, air conditioning closet. The condo in the people were very nice but lack of communication with the host and the unit needs to be updated and gone through maintenance is definitely drop the ball

Overall we had a good stay. Couple of minor issues that can be easily corrected: 1. None of the bedroom doors lock 2. The sliding glass door to the balcony in the living room is very difficult to close Big issue: the elevator! There are only 2 elevators which is not adequate for the amount of guests that stay in the condo. Otherwise everything is just as the pictures look. Absolutely gorgeous view and the unit was very quiet.

The property was listed as the West corner of the building, which it was not, it was on the East corner. Huge difference! The kitchen supplies were a joke. We even had to purchase our own toaster. There was not enough silverware (4 forks) and the same with plates, etc. This place claims to have room for 10 people! The remote for the TV in the main BR didn't work and it wasn't batteries, we replaced them. The dishwasher was difficult to get started due to a touchy door. The dryer took two hours to dry anything because the vent in the outdoor ceiling was overflowing with dryer lint. I could go on and on but I think I've made my point. And then as a farewell gift we found a live cockroach in the kitchen! This place needs an overhaul!

Very nice trip and good place

My friends and I paid over $2600 to stay here. It honestly wasn’t super clean, especially the bath tub. There were several holes in the walls and ceiling. We received 5 towels upon arrival when we had 10 people staying. The elevators broke down our week here. We were on floor 14 & had to walk down & up 16 flights of non-air conditioned stairs every time we wanted to go to the beach or pool area. One elevator finally worked again but we had to wait an hour + for it & get smooshed with 17+ people on it because everyone was so tired of waiting. Our WiFi didn’t work & neither did any of the 3 TVs in the condo. We reached out to the property management about all issues & they did little to nothing for us and we got zero compensation for all of our inconveniences. Sadly, I feel the need to leave a poor review so others can see! We will not be staying here again. I’d rather stay in the cheapest motel than climb 16 flights of stairs multiple times a day. It made going to beach seem not even worth it. We are very disappointed.
