This is a much older studio. It was very comfortable for me and my husband. I could see that it would feel crowded with more than 2 people. Overall it definitely needs some upgrades and a little TLC but even with that I would stay here again. The reasons I will return include the area which it is located is less crowded; the pool and patio areas at Top of the Gulf are very nice and clean and it is evident that they are dedicated to improvements; the elevators are fast and staff are very helpful. They are also very dedicated to security. FYI the individual units do not have balconies however there are large sitting areas with comfortable chairs facing the beach on all floors. These were nice open areas where you could sit and look out at the beach. We had a wonderful stay.

We knew coming into the property that it was somewhat outdated, what we didn’t expect was a uncleaned shower, molded shower liner, rugs not vacuumed, stained sheets, dirty dishes, and everything coated in dust. We appreciated the abundance of kitchen appliances/ dishes and plentiful linens. The whole place just needs a good cleaning too to bottom, even simply wiping down doorframes, cabinets, and lightswitches/outlets that have dust and stains caked on them would make the place look a lot nicer. It could be a very nice property, just needs to be kept up with in a decent manner.

Paradise vacation.

I loved everything about these condos! The wonderful breeze through the hallways and balconies. There were so many private/not private special sitting places all around the pool! You can branch off from the crowd and sit with a group and chit chat. The pool was spacious enough for everyone! So close to the ocean! There was a snack bar, concession vending machines, ice machine, etc. the condo was super clean and looked exactly like the picture. It was the best vacation of my life! I will going back repeatedly year after year!

Very poor condo

When viewing the pics of the condo we thought we were in for a treat with the futons and bed. Could not be further from the truth. The bed was as hard as the floor. One futon had a split in it. The other was hard and uncomfortable. The door lock did not lock at first. The entire first day it would not stay locked. The kitchen was straight out of 1950. During a rain, the hallway outside of the condo was ankle deep in water. The pool and beach were nice. I would not recommend this place to anyone. Extremely disappointed especially for the cost of the rental.

I had to get another hotel room for my daughter, grandbaby, and cousin. The lights did not work properly and ac was very loud in all it was horrible. The security guard at the front was absolutely rude and I could never get intouch with the property manager or owner of the condo about this matter.

Was nice for a short trip. Wasn’t told how to get into the room. When we did get to the room it wasn’t ready and the microwave and tv wouldn’t work. Never heard back from owner on how to get in. Wasn’t told about how to check out till after we left. It was in a nice location and the overall place was kept clean.
