    We had a wonderful time! The condo was lovely with amazing views of the Gulf. Great layout for a family with two teenagers who want their own spaces. Would definitely recommend

    Great experience. Owner was very responsive. Had an issue getting inside with the code we were given initially but got it resolved fairly quickly. Beautiful condo!! Elevators go down constantly which is very frustrating. Took about 25 minutes to get down to the ground floor to grab something out of the car. It’s not the owners fault but the building MUST upgrade their elevators. Technician said he’s there almost everyday and they keep “putting a bandaid on it” but they need to be replaced.

    Great 3-bedroom condo; ideal location, perfect size, beautiful view, and well appointed features. Our family enjoyed our time there and we definitely recommend. Only complaint I have is that the listing stated two master bedrooms with king beds and while there is a clear master bedroom with a king beds, the other is a well-pointed room with private bath and queen/full bed, still with an amazing view. That was really our only challenge and we were able to make it work with the living room pull out bed.

    We enjoyed our stay at the Whale Rider. The views were amazing! The condo was fully stocked and clean. We enjoyed waking up to the ocean every morning. The only thing I would recommend is a sleep mask. The bedrooms have no curtains. We would definitely stay again!

    This apartment was perfect for our trip. The location was great, the place was clean and comfortable, and the host was very accommodating. We would definitely stay here again. The place was very equipped, this was a plus for us.

    This was one of the nicest places we’ve ever stayed. The beds were so comfortable, the decor was well thought out, everything was clean, and we loved how stocked and organized it was. They thought of everything you’d need while staying here. We didn’t have to rent chairs or an umbrella because they had those for us as well. There’s a rental stand right on the beach, if you’d rather go that route instead. We loved the shower in the Master Bathroom. It was luxurious and had amazing water pressure. The washer and dryer were top of line and got our clothes done quickly. It’s on the 12th floor which offered a perfect view especially with the large balcony and very comfortable furniture. There were so many beach and bath towels too which was nice. Bahama Bob’s and The Catch are within easy walking distance. We also walked to The Hangout and back without any troubles. The family’s favorite restaurant was The Sunliner Diner. Publix was pretty close by too. We would definitely stay here again.
