Had a wonderful stay at Top of the Gulf. Perfect location on the beach. The condo itself is an older building, but we had a wonderful stay. We stayed in a privately owned condo and when we went to get the parking pass the clerk at the desk asked how much we were paying and compared their rate. Only a... More

I did something I don't normally do - I booked before reading reviews. You can imagine my concern afterward! I have to say though, the experience totally depends on the unit. We stayed in unit 821 and I thought it was adorable. It was extremely clean. The floors (tile) looked brand-spanking new. The futon cover (pretty brown microsuede) looked new.... More

We stayed in room 511. It was a dump. Motel 6 I would imagine is a 4 star compared to this place. Grossly OVER PRICED and FILTHY! No toilet paper, had to go out and BUY some! Bath faucet wouldn't shut off. Called Housekeeping for the unit and NEVER GOT A CALL BACK. Advertised as an OCEAN VIEW...if you want... More

I rented privately from Shane Bailey and he did not disclose fees ahead of time for parking ($15) and armband requirement. The condo was a dump-pee stains on the bed and tiny tv-water stains on the ceiling. Poorly patched holes in the wall. Hole in the bottom of Sheetrock in bathroom. Everything is old and decrepid-found hairs that were not... More

Top of the gulf is in a pretty good location minus the massive construction on Thomas dr. The condo we got was very poorly maintained leaking windows soaked the carpet, ac vents were making a horrible sound throughout the whole building. Stained up carpet, smallest bathroom ever. We literally had to leave the door open to use the toilet it... More

The day we checked into the condo the toilet flush was no working and we were 4 of us . Me , my hysband, my mom and my kid. There were only 2 towels and they mentioned... More

My husband and I wanted a quick weekend trip while the kids were with grandparents. This was a great price so we were looking forward to going. This condo is the standard for the saying "you get what you pay for". The building is very old and needs lots of work to be brought up to the standards most people... More
