Condo was a great spot for the price! Our 4 and 7 year old boys slept on the pull out sofa which worked great. Loved the decor and loved the big bed! Kids loved the kiddie pool and we loved the easy access to the beach! The lady that worked in the condo building store was very nice and helpful as well!

The condo was perfect for my adult daughter and I for the week. It was extremely clean, had pots and pans for all of our cooking needs, ample space in refrigerator and freezer. There was not a dishwasher and we had to keep up with filling the ice cube trays each night but no big deal. It was right on the beach with gorgeous views. We enjoyed the beach daily and pool. We were surprised to find a beach chair and umbrellas in the storage area as well as some toys and sand bucket. The location was convenient to everything, walking distance even, especially Hershey ice cream and pizza. I would stay here again. The resort had guaranteed parking for one vehicle which was piece of mind. The resort was quiet and very well maintained. Wonderful vacation!!

We really liked Top Of The Gulf. Our studio was just as described in the ad. Clean with a modern beach feel. Excellent view of the beautiful white sand beach and pool. Management went above and beyond our needs. The employees on the property were exceptional!
I will definitely go through RealJoy again!

Beautiful place with an amazing view. Easy access and people in office were friendly. Only thing I would suggest is a headboard for the bed so your pillows don't keep falling on floor, and moving the bed and couch around. Other than that I would go again tomorrow! And recomwvryoen

This was the first time I have ever seen the beach and I am nearly 50 years old. This was also my grandson's 8th birthday present from us. The property was just as described and they went above & beyond to accommodate our requests. I have no complaints and will definitely book again. I already miss it!! Thank you!!
Rodney, Thank you for the 5-star review! We're so glad to hear that your first beach experience was perfect and that you were able to celebrate your grandson's birthday with us. We look forward to seeing you again soon for another unforgettable stay. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
This was a great property. It looks exactly like the pictures show. It was very clean and had great security. The only part I didn't care for was that we couldn't get more towels midweek and I wish somewhere it would have mentioned the bathrooms off of the lobby. We didn't find them until our last day & we're going all the way to our room from the pool or beach. So over all I give it a 9.5/10 and would stay there again!!
Amy, Thank you for the 5-star review. We're delighted to hear that you had a great experience and that the property met your expectations. We hope you'll join us again soon. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.

We loved the property. Our view was beautiful amd our stay was perfect! The only thing I would have changed was the coffee pot. We could not get it to work. The filters were odd shaped and the inside of the pot was very black. Otherwise, perfect. The coffee pot gave us a reason to go to Starbucks!
Deanna, we are pleased to know that your party enjoyed a perfect stay in this studio unit with a beautiful view. Please accept our apology for the coffee pot. We will forward your comment to property managers so that they may make sure that this issue has been taken care of. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
Thank you for your feedback. Weâre sorry to hear the property did not meet your expectations. To clarify, the listing accurately advertises two queen bedsâone being a traditional bed and the other a sleeper sofaâand this information is clearly shown in the photos and description on VRBO. We always encourage guests to review all details before booking to ensure the property is the right fit. We thank you for the photos you sent us verifying that the unit you booked was advertised correctly with 2 queen beds and the laundry facility down the hall. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.
Overall is was just okay, I wouldnât stay here again though. Our tv wasnât working upon arrival. I advised them immediately, but didnât receive a replacement tv until our trip was almost over. They replaced the tv while we were out and we came back to find a few nuts and bolts in our bed. Speaking of the bed itâs an old spring mattress that pops and creaks with two small flat pillows. The location and view was nice though.
The location was great. The cleanliness was not so great. And there was prior water damage that was not disclosed to me before arrival. The warped walls and use of an dehumidifier were my clues. When i asked the proprty mgt about it, they were quick to respond and even came out to check on it but did not give an update after they came on site.
The kitchen was wonderful. You can tell they invested the upgrades.
The bed was uncomfortable and it could hvae used a dresser of some sort.
Great for a quick getaway, not so much for longer trips.
Valerie, Thank you for the 5-star review. We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear you enjoyed the kitchen upgrades. Next time, let us know if the unit is not as clean as it should be and we will send a new cleaner out to make it right. Our records indicate that we assured you that while the walls had not yet been repaired, the previous leak had been repaired by the HOA. We hope you'll join us again soon for another getaway. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
Almost perfect. Hair dryer was missing. The sheets for the pull out bed were the wrong size. Other than that, it was fine. Clean room and the design was good.
