Very nice condo for good price. VERY responsive management company! If I have any suggestions they would be to provide a better equipped kitchen (every thing was CLEAN, just a bit too tattered), and invest in a bar height table and chairs for the balcony so that your guests can sit outside and watch the water while enjoying coffee or an afternoon cocktail. The set there now is regular table height and allows for no view. Even with those two suggestions, I would stay again.

Lovely condo having most amenities needed. Views are very special. Only reason it doesn’t get 5 out of 5 stars is the “beach” was a disappointment; the pigeons come each day and land on balcony and leave behind their many droppings and the “nature walk” was closed the entire time.

My feet were black at the end of the day from walking barefoot on the inside floors. Looked swept clean but obviously not mopped. To be fair, this is true anymore for lots of condos. It’s never as clean as my house. The “beach” is a joke. It’s a muddy lagoon. The nature trail was closed & likely will be for some time as permits are involved for the little bridge. Would have been nice to have a kayak included for something to do in the lagoon. The pool was heated but not enough. It was too cold for me to use it. My HOA keeps our pool much warmer. I did not see anyone else using the pool while we were there. The interior is nice enough but lots of touch ups (paint) are needed, especially around kitchen cabinet knobs. We had a plumbing drain leak, but those things happen and refrigerator water had a very slow leak, with a small puddle when I arrived. They did warn about the bed being high, but I don’t have mobility problems so I wasn’t worried. Turns out because I’m short (4’11”) I couldn’t get in it and had to use a step stool at night. Not a huge problem since one was in the closet, but definitely a surprise. They should maybe say you need to be taller. lolThe balcony faces north, so I was disappointed we had no sun there. Also, pigeon droppings on balcony & table. Clubhouse area is outstanding for amenities. I enjoyed sitting on the balcony and reading. The highlight was looking down and seeing dolphins swimming right below us.

The place was absolutely beautiful—truly a hidden gem! It had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The views were breathtaking, and every person we encountered was warm, friendly, and welcoming.The atmosphere leans more toward a mature crowd, mostly retirees.While the surrounding area outside the resort is a bit run-down, the resort itself is very secure with gated access and feels like a well-kept oasis.Everything on the property was fresh, clean, and well-maintained. The pool was crystal clear, and the tennis and pickleball courts were in excellent condition. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to unwind!

Nice place

The actual property is nice. Just like the pictures. No mop or other tools to do spot cleaning though so I suggest bringing your own especially if you are brining kids. Poor communication with property management. Was not warned that the pool would be closed during our stay which really took fun away for the kids

Great view

Stayed here to visit family. Building 3 is the farthest from the beach and pool but not too bad. This is a small beach and it can be kind of mucky. The second day was better probably because we stirred it up. There are a lot of leaves and grass in the water. Niece said it was a grass flat. BUT there is sand and sea water. Pool is really nice. The king bed in the room is pretty high. Shell’s seafood restaurant is worth the drive!! All the sinks had hand soap and dish soap in the kitchen. There were 3 hair dryers and a curling iron provided. Good view. Enjoyed seeing and hearing all the boats. Nicely updated condo. There are some chairs on the beach. There were also a couple chairs an umbrella and tennis and pickle ball rackets in the condo.

Beautiful views- not much for teens to do

The place is cute with gorgeous views (except you can see right in the neighbors living room from the balcony) the tenants were nice but almost all in their late 60s-80s. Not many families so our kids didn’t meet any other kids. Great fishing and can see dolphins on the bay. Inside needs a little work - dishwasher and kitchen sink leaked . Master toilet was wobbly and tub didn’t drain properly. And bathroom door didn’t latch - also a painting was poorly mounted near front door and would get hot when opening- we moved it durning out stay sp it wouldn’t get damaged . Honest review - beautiful views and well kept up property. Definitely an older crowd

We were visiting the area to visit family and attend a baby show. The location was perfect for our needs. The property was very nice and the view from the 8th floor was worth a million dollars.

Spring Break Getaway

We try and find different cities in the Gulf Coast area every spring break and found this location in Hudson. The condo (8th floor great view) was a great size for my wife and two daughters (17 and 22) who made the trip. We were looking for Pickleball and Hiking as well as the Florida sun. We hit on all 3 these. The residents and other guests were very friendly and if you are looking for an older group this is it. Might have only saw a handful of under 50 the entire stay at this resort. Unfortunately no walks along the Gulf beach in the morning or at night as you will have to drive a ways to get this. However, the pool was heated and they have a great game room for the complex with lots of activities. They even had a talent show one of the nights that we attended. Overall a great stay that checked a lot of boxes.

We enjoyed our week here. My husband and I worked here for the week and was perfect for our stay. The second bedroom we used as an office and fit dual 27” monitors on the table. Beautiful views from the balcony and front entrance. We saw manatees and dolphins during our stay. We enjoyed playing pickleball and walking through the canal neighborhoods each day. Our favorite restaurants were Inn on the Gulf in Hudson, Catches in Port Ritchie and Estuary in downtown New Port Richie. Would definitely recommend staying here for the views.

Wedding and family time

My friend and I were in Florida for my niece's wedding and to visit my friend's dad. At the designated time I received the check-in material. The check in process was seamless; please note the actual address in the email was NOT the actual resort address. But it wasn't too hard to figure out that the 3 large buildings within a residential/marina neighborhood was where we needed to be. The condo was as advertised; very clean with a spectacular view of the Gulf from several different windows. There was plenty of room for the two of us with comfy beds, nice linens and towels. We were disappointed to find out that the pool was off limits during our stay. The location was about 45 minutes from where we needed to be, but it was in between both so it worked out fine. There are lots of places to eat, get necessities and it's easy to find a beautiful beach to visit. I'd recommend this place; just be aware you may not have all the amenities available.
