Christmas family vaca

Resort pool area was nice and easy access to beach with skywalk. Couple suggestions would be to update some of the stained bedding, couch pillows and supply hangers in closets. Resort manager was very responsive and accommodating!

Great vacation!

We absolutely enjoyed our week in this condo! Clean and beautiful. Rooftop views are perfect, we had a couple issues with the access code not working but quickly taken care of by host! The only suggestion I would have is some updated nonstick cookware. We would definitely revisit this property if it’s an option on our next visit!

Heron PH 08

It was a lovely condo & we enjoyed our stay. Everything was very clean. The check in did not go well as the code we were given did not work and we were forced to stand in the hot sun with all of our things for 20-30 minutes until someone texted us a new code to try that finally worked. No one in maintenance would actually pick up the phone to actually talk to us which was annoying just text. This was 4 pm on a Tuesday afternoon- not after hours

Condo in need

It started with an incorrect door code that was easily remedied, the water heater was broken, also remedied, the refrigerator was out..should have been 33 or so degrees...was 60...wifi out, we fixed before they could, lot of duct tape holding things together. carpet duct taped to floor...doesn't appear to have been updated since the 90s..everything was "minimum" I really hate leaving reviews like this, but C'mon!!!

Nice, but creepy

Strongly suggest owner remodel the master. Skylight allows anyone with access to the roof (all other PHs) to clearly see entire bathroom and half of bed (just frost the glass at least!). Also, fully open clear glass shower to rest of master bedroom is inline with nudist colony theme. Black is not the best color for facilities. Will NOT be staying at this PH again.

Nice Condo in a Great Location

The condo was clean, comfortable, spacious, and in a great location. We enjoy staying in FWB because it’s not as touristy as Destin. The Lazy River, pools, and hot tubs were a big hit with my adult children. The property manager was friendly and met our needs. The master bedroom was spacious and comfortable. The king mattress was firm which was a big plus. The other beds were mostly comfortable. We had one on the sofa bed the first night but he said it was too uncomfortable and slept on the floor the rest of the time. The kitchen was stocked with the things we needed and Publix is just down the road. Parking was was and the views were great. We had a great time. Thanks!

Don't do it

Such a disappointment. The refrigerator / freezer does not work and according to maintenance and reading a past review - the owner and management company had full knowledge before we arrived. We lost several hundreds of dollars in food. The hot tub on the roof does not heat and had sand in it. The grill was torn apart. The jacuzzi tub in the MB did not work. The contract they ask you to sign ensures you are just out of luck.

Loved rooftop hot tub & grill

We usually stay ocean side but liked the view of bayside with all the palm trees around swimming pools. We loved the rooftop hot tub in the evenings as well as the gas grill which we used quite often. Wish there was a high table and chairs up there so you could sit higher up and look at view. The condo itself was nice, different furniture than what the original pictures shows, the kitchen had all the utensils that we needed. The bed was comfortable and I liked the openness between the master bedroom and bathroom. Sliding door from living room was extremely difficult to open and close so we kept it closed and just used the one in bedroom which wasn’t a problem for us but could be for someone else. We would definitely stay again. Condo was ready early for us and check in and check out was super quick & easy.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was clean and well maintained. The roof access had an amazing view of the Bay and the Ocean. The property was well maintained and the pools offered a lot of entertainment for the family. We had 8 prink bands but only 7 blue bands were supplied when there was supposed to be 8. We made it work, however I sent an email to let the facility know and I didn't hear back anything.

Didn't want to leave

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We are locals and needed a place to stay while we had some work done on our home. I was very please overall with this condo and the location. The office was very helpful and super friendly when I called. Overall the condo was clean with the exception of an end table and a tissue on the plantation shutter....not sure how it got up there. We loved the hot tub on the rooftop and enjoyed some beautiful sunsets and were able to see 2 fireworks shows. It would be nice to have a high top table and chairs on the rooftop so we could sit and enjoy our wine. The lounge chairs weren't conducive to that and allow us to enjoy the views. We would definitely consider staying here again.

Best February ever!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent the month of February here. It was so nice getting away from old man winter. The month started out a little cool because of that terrible cold front that hit Texas, so we felt some of that. It improved dramatically after that. The best part about the unit we stayed in was the rooftop patio, complete with our personal hot tub. We had the morning sunshine coming in our unit and if we didn’t feel like heading to the pool, we went up to the rooftop patio to catch the sun for literally the whole day. The large and smaller pools were heated and clean. Everything about the unit and the resort could be summed up as CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN! The beach is a short walk, and there is a boardwalk across the street with restaurants and bars. We’ll definitely be back.
