Inside was great, balcony is rough

The check-in, communications, and inside of the room were all great. Though the listing shows a different view and the AC on the outside looked horrible. The view was of the next buildings kid pool but the listing shows just sand as the view. The room is great but there needs to be updates for the listing and that AC NEEDS to be fixed.

Not the best, but not the worst. Very small. Building is old. Very limited view of gulf. Balcony could use some updates. Elevator was out of order upon arrival. Parking is difficult, not many spaces and very close together. Pools were ok. There are only a few tables with shade around pools. Kitchen ware is limited, few utensils, cups, etc. Unit was ok for the two of us.

Rooms fine have stayed in this room many times what I have an issue with is the hoa manager whose name is Austin. A pipe fell from the roof of the parking garage and did almost 6000 in damage to my car he said don’t worry get two estimates we will take care of it. After nearly 3 weeks of getting a run around he stated they aren’t responsible due to park at own risk so anyone who stays at this property beware they won’t stand by what they say. Was fine when we was there but now that I’m 9 hrs away he’s changed his story after saying get the estimates then it was get the car fixed and send me a final invoice which no way in hell I’m paying 6 grand plus another 900 for rental car without any guarantee he was gonna keep his word. So if you stay at any of the sugar beach rooms or any owned by Steve Earle beware cause he’s no help in the matter as well after telling me give me some time I’m working and I’ll get back with you. So if you want a cheap room for a week that literally 60 secs from room to sand this is the one for you just don’t expect the hoa manager to stand by his word in case something happen to your car during your stay

The Room

The physical room itself was good. The bed was also very comfy. The reason I’m not giving this place 5 starts is for 2 reasons. One, the balcony view picture needs to be updated due to the fact the new hotel is next door and takes a lot of the view away. Second, the last night we were there a huge roach can out from under the stove. We would stay here again if given the chance.

Sugar beach condos are older, yet this studio condo has been updated very nicely. If you read reviews about construction noises, construction is over! We’d stay here again.

Nice little getaway !

My husband and I enjoyed the condo. We've stayed at Sugar Beach a couple of times, but this unit was our favorite so far. Steve is absolutely wonderful! Quick to respond and everything we needed was provided. Close to the beach and getting in and out was super easy. We will def book this unit again.

Great as expected

Everything was good. This was our 5th time in this unit (8th year @ SB). We know what to expect. On a separate note, unrelated to the unit, if you use the beach chair service, tell them you will tip at the end. The vendor is no longer ABC, which offered excellent service and was very attentive, offering to move the umbrellas frequently. The new vendor only made the rounds to check on their customers on one of the five days we paid for their “service”.
