This place was amazing for the location, beaches, condo! We had the best vacation here and will definitely be back to this condo! Enjoyed walking to pier park and eating oysters right across the street. Elevators were super fast and the facility was not over crowded. Loved the remodeled condo too!

ELEVATOR NIGHTMARE

When we arrived at property, we unloaded our luggage and made our way from garage to property. We were greeted by long lines at only two elevators that were operational. We waited approximately 50 minutes in 95 degree heat before we could take elevator to 16th floor where our unit was located. There were only two elevators operational our entire stay and needless to say it was nightmare the entire week. The unit that we stayed in was ok but not worth the price charged. One would expect much more at a premier property. Furnishings were some what outdated, ceiling fans looked like they hadn't been cleaned in quite some time and two of the bathrooms had mold in the corner of the tiles. In addition the unit did not have its own internet router and the only wifi available was through the complexes open system. My family and I visit PCB at least one week per year if not more. i can safely say this was our first and last time to stay at Aqua.
