The location is the best thing about this place at only .5 from pier park, it was walkable for us and we didn’t have to sit in front beach traffic. There are a few things that will help your stay be more comfortable, but remember, you get what you pay for.
1.) Do not try to contact host through the VRBO app. He will not respond, so ask for his number or go through VRBO help to get it.
2.) If you get cold easy, or like more than one pillow, then bring your own bedding.
3.) Bring your own bathing towels as well as beach towels. The ones provided are stained and smell sour
4.) If you need a particular cooking utensil, bring it as well. The condo has basic stuff like a pot, frying pan and baking sheet along with plastic spoon and spatula but not much else. Also there are ZERO paper towels and coffee filters provided, so pack accordingly.
5.) Bring a system to hook to one of the small tvs if you want to watch tv in the evening. Neither tv/remote works very well unless a game system is plugged in to stream on. The tv in the front bedroom is smaller than a computer monitor, so it wasn’t really useable while kids were laying in bed.
All in all it was a get what you pay for place, but they obviously aren’t putting money back into it at all and a few things were outdated but the bed was comfortable and it had a great location with a view of the beach.
