About this property
2ND FLOOR UNIT OVERLOOKING THE POOL & GULF!
Welcome to The Tides at Tops'L 203
Keywords: Tops'l Sandestin Condo Vacation Rental
The Master Bedroom is Beautiful! With a large King Bed overlooking the gulf!
The Guest Bedroom has plenty of sleeping with a Twin Bed and a Twin over Full Bunk!
At The Tides @ Tops’l. If you’ve never made your way to Tops’l you don’t know what you’re missing. This place has everything. Beautiful beach. In fact rated best by Southern Living. And if you can’t trust them who can you trust. Incredible views. Close to golf. Starting Sept 3rd the resort will be modernizing their elevators, one elevator will be down at a time as they get this done.
The Tides are part of Tops’l Beach & Racquet Resort which is smack dab in the middle of 52 beautifully landscaped acres bordered by the Gulf of Mexico and by Topsail Hill State Preserve. WOW! There’s 600 feet of private, sandy white beaches. There’s a ton of stuff to do here, with the daytime activities and nightlife of neighboring Sandestin and other noted communities to the west, and a nature preserve for quiet and solitude to the east. Tops'l provides the best of both worlds.
And if that weren’t enough, Silver Sands Outlet Mall, one of the largest in the US, is less than 5 minutes away. Sandestin's popular Baytowne Wharf is just across the street to the west with shops, excellent restaurants and entertainment on the bay. Concerts on Wednesdays and family movies on Thursdays are popular family outings on the lawn at the Wharf. Sandestin's recently developed Grand Boulevard Town Center, nearby to the east, has upscale shopping and many excellent restaurant options. There’s so much to do here you won’t be able to fit it into a week’s vacation. So stay two!
You must be at least 25 years of age to rent this property. During Spring Break , the minimum acceptable ratio is one (1) person 25 years of age for every two (2) persons under 25 years of age.

Condo was not very clean. There were dust balls in every corner. The freezer was not cleaned out from the guests before us. There was mold on the walls and ceiling of the master shower. The master bath also had a ton of rust. The unit was very outdated. On the good side, the resort was very nice. And you couldn't beat the view.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the cleanliness and condition of the unit did not meet expectations. This is not the standard we aim to provide, and we will be addressing these concerns with our housekeeping and maintenance teams right away.
We do appreciate you mentioning the resort and the view. We’re glad you were able to enjoy those aspects of your stay.
Property is great. We love Tops’l ( The Tides building ) but this unit is dated and needing repairs / upkeep. Kitchen cabinet broken, mold and rust in master shower and bathrooms. Not sure when it was occupied or cleaned last. Dead bird on the patio furniture had been there a while. No curtain in livingroom ( I didn’t notice this in photos prior to booking ) was a little odd. People seeing in at night made us little uncomfortable. Host was prompt to reply via app during booking and prior to check in answered questions we had.

The condo was very nice, exactly how it looked in the pictures. The view was amazing, the balcony overlooks the pools and is very close to the beach it makes you feel like you’re sitting at the pool. Would highly recommend this property and will most likely book again in the future

Thank you for your feedback. We’ll be sure to review the kitchen appliances and overall updates needed for the condo. We appreciate your stay and comments.
Our family enjoyed this lovely 2nd floor condo’s beautiful views of the ocean and pool. The beds were comfortable. Quick access to the beach and amenities. Would definitely stay here again. Only drawbacks: couch has dirty upholstery, cooking pans need replacing, coffee filters should be standard.

We’re glad you enjoyed the views, comfortable beds, and easy beach access. Thank you for the notes on the sofa upholstery, cookware, and coffee filters. We’ll review these items with our team.
We’re familiar with this area, so the location is always great. Only a couple of negatives, a couple of beach chairs would have been great and living room had no drapes.

We’re happy you enjoyed the location and overall stay. Thank you for the suggestion about beach chairs and living room drapes. We’ll review with the owner.
This condo served us perfectly. The location is excellent overlooking the pool and ocean. The master bathroom could use some updating but it was definitely clean. Walking distance to a couple restaurants on the beach. No check in process which made things so easy! Our family will remember this fantastic trip!

We’re happy the location and amenities made for a memorable trip. Thank you for the feedback on the master bath and for noting the easy arrival process.
I've stayed on the premises multiple times and it was great as always. My only reason for not rating 5 stars is that the WiFi password did not work and I received no response on my multiple inquiries to the host regarding it.

We loved our vacation at this condo. The location on the 2nd floor was great, we didn’t have to wait for the elevator every day. I wouldn’t recommend this condo for anyone with smaller children as there is no kid friendly kitchenware: plastic plates, bowls, cups, etc. Overall great space! The resort is incredible and the beaches are gorgeous!

We’re happy the second-floor location and resort worked well for your trip. Thank you for the suggestion about kid-friendly kitchenware. We’ll review options to add those items.
My favorite part of this unit was it’s open space living room/ dining area. The sofa and chaise lounge were so comfy the kids slept on it every night. Great location and views. We have no problems at all! I would definitely recommend staying in this unit.
