Great Time

This is the second time we have stayed at this property and it has been great both times. It is a great unit with three bedrooms, a beautiful ocean view, and a huge patio area. There are 30 units in this condo complex and this one is clearly the best one. Would happily stay there again next year.

The gulf shore location was ideal with beautiful views and easy access to the Gulf beaches and waters. The 3rd floor condo did not have access to a working elevator and the stairwell doors were improperly propped open. The beauty of the location offset the inconveniences mentioned above.

Awesome property on the ocean

The accommodations in this unit were awesome. Beyond our expectations. The unit was spacious and clean. The patio was amazing. We spent most of our time on the patio watching the sunsets and listening to the ocean sounds. We all enjoyed our vacation. Great R&R after the holidays. Thank you to the DeVores for sharing this bit of paradise with us. We look forward to returning soon.

5 Star Vacation

My family and I had the most wonderful time in this beautiful beachfront condo. The building is a secure building, the condominium is an end condo which means you only have neighbors on one side. The view of the beach is to die for and the patio/porch was amazing. The unit is beautiful and exactly what we wanted. We were looking for a vacation spot without all of the commercialized rides and attractions that are so overwhelming at other locations. We needed just relaxation of the beach and swimming pool. Although, if attractions are what you like, this location is great since there are many attractions with a 20 mile radius. I cannot say enough about the owner, Denise. Talked with her on several occasions and she went above and beyond any VRBO owner I have ever dealt with. I WILL BE BOOKING THIS SAME CONDO OVER AND OVER AGAIN TO CREATE WONDERFUL MEMORIES WITH MY GRANDCHILDREN. THANK YOU FOR SHARING SUCH A WONDERFUL PLACE!❤️

Fantastic time had by all!

Our stay at The Rose was wonderful. The property is as pictured and described. The positives include: communication with owner was timely and Denise was responsive to issues as they came up. The air conditioning stopped working while we were there, but it was taken care of within a couple days. We needed extra towels and Denise had the housekeeping staff drop some off. As others have mentioned, there is no closet in the master bedroom, which was a minor issue. I also think some of the pillows are due for replacement. The beach is gorgeous and just out the door. The patio absolutely made the vacation for us. You have a spectacular view with comfortable seating and dining. Writers are correct in saying you cannot use the propane fireplace ; however, we placed 5-6 electric candles from the Dollar Store on the “fire” table and the effect was beautiful. Hope we get the chance to stay again. Thanks, Denise!

Nice beach views, but slippery floors.

We were very happy with the fact that it had a beautiful beach view, and a big patio to relax on, eat meals on throughout the day and watch the beautiful sunsets. Unfortunately, the property didn't completely work for us. As soon as we arrived, we noticed that the floors were comprised of very large and shiny tiles. They were a slip hazzard, especially any time the floors either in the inside or on the patio would become sandy or wet. We ended up having a few slip and falls and bunks on the head. Due to this, someone always had to watch over and walk after our daughter during our whole 2 week stay. Also, the entry way from the beach to the property entrance is also very slippery when wet. We also fell there a couple of times and saw other guests of the building fall too. Another issue we had, just like another renter mentioned is that the conditioner unit stopped working properly to cool the unit. We waited a couple of days, thinking it would reregulate on its own, since arriving it was working, but it didn't. So we called the owner and she had someone come out after we reached out to her in about a day and a half. The air conditioner man mentioned there was a leak, they filled it and left. It could potentially be a problem for future renters as well since the cause of the leak wasn't fixed just filled in with fluid. We also had 6 beach towels, when there were 8 of us staying. Said we would get some more, but never did. Also had different workers a couple times come during our stay to do things at the property, so that caused a slight inconvenience. Other than that, the views of the beach are great, and the pool is nice to have for rough ocean days.

TAKE PICTURES OF ANY ISSUES

Warning--take pictures of ANYTHING that is even slightly out of place in the house, as owners have blamed us for so much that we have not done. I’m providing the list below so you can note for yourselves if you choose to stay here: Here are all issues upon arrival A painting above the fireplace has cracked glass. A doorhandle to go outside in the master bed was screwed off. The towel holder in the bathroom broke the very first time my husband pulled the towel off of it. There was melted wax on the wood next to the TV. Some of the decorative balls on the coffee table have become unwound. The sink would not drain in the guest bathroom. We did contact the owner about this but they still tried to charge us for it. The rug in the living room was disgusting. Every pillow had large yellow drool stains all over it. Sheets in the master were stained. The air filter was absolutely grime-filled. I had to sweep up about 15 or so tiny dead bugs on the right hand side of the fireplace. The cleaner broke the kitchen sink drain and we were blamed. It was working when we left. Here is all of what we had to purchase on our own during our stay Air filters Plumbing solution for the sink that would not drain New pillows for all beds as the ones int he house were vomit-inducing. Sheets for the master A new broom because the ones that were there were useless with all of the sand. Here is what we did mess up (things happen, right?): My daughter’s pink shirt bled into the bath towels-- we replaced the two that we thought were bad-- we have been charged to replace 8. I broke a Mikasa wave bowl-- I bought a replacement on my own and had it shipped to the condo. No one would have even noticed it was gone, but we’re decent people and we respect the places we visit. I've NEVER had an issue with anywhere we've been. We also had the wrong checkout date in our head (silly us, I know), but we were out within the hour once we realized our mistake. The cleaner was able to start cleaning while we moved out, and she was really flexible and said she had plenty of time to clean multiple times. There was also Red Tide during our stay, which meant dead fish all up and down the beach, all of us were coughing terribly, and my husband, we found out, is allergic to the toxin. I guess we were pretty naive in shrugging our shoulders and handling things ourselves or considering things wear and tare of a rental property. It came back to bite us at the cost of $235. Unbelievable.

Wunderschöner Urlaub

Wir hatten 3wunderschöne Wochen. Die Wohnung ist sehr groß und gut eingerichtet. Die Terrasse ist unbeschreiblich schön, sehr groß und schöne Sitzgelegenheiten. Das beste ist aber der Sonnenuntergang direkt vor der Terrasse. Der Strand ist sehr sauber und nur wenig besucht. Für uns war es der perfekte Urlaub.

Stunning sunsets and water views

We had a wonderful 2 week visit and even the colder and windy days couldn’t take away from the view. Kitchen is pretty well stocked with utensils, pans and dishes. The unit was nice and clean which we appreciated! There is an indoor fire place but not sure if it’s able to be used, I didn’t ask but it would be good to know for the next time we visit if we have some chillier days. Maybe it’s electric or gas. The Patio is huge!! Once again weather didn’t cooperate to use it much but next time! Denise was in touch and very sweet. We would recommend.

Great Location/Unit Needs Some Love

We are very familiar with this area. The physical location of the unit is wonderful - close to great restaurants, the PIE airport, things to do, etc. Unfortunately, the pictures shown in the listing are dated and do not accurately reflect the current condition of the unit. It is in need of a thorough cleaning, minor repairs and replacement of broken/worn items. In addition, linens and towels need to be replaced. Items that are not disclosed in the listing: there is no closet in the master bedroom; while the deck/patio is huge and a great view, there is literally no privacy from other residents; the firepit shown cannot be used (we bought a propane tank and were informed by an unidentified resident that this was illegal). The listed "new sanitizing process" is not being followed. Money needs to be put into the property to bring it back up the "top notch elegant property" it may have once been.

Two Weeks in Paradise

This was our second year at The Rose and we had a marvelous two weeks. The condo is lovely, well kept and spacious and the huge patio overlooking the Gulf is an added bonus. The grounds and pool are well maintained and shopping and restaurants are close by. The gorgeous beach and Gulf waters gave us hours of swimming and fun in the sun. We are already checking our calendar for a return visit next summer. Thanks Denise🏖
