We really enjoyed the Gulf Crest condos. The complex and the grounds are pretty nice. I did notice one elevator was acting up, as mentioned by another reviewer, but the other elevators seemed to be working just fine. The pools are really nice, though a bit sandy since they're right off the beach. We enjoyed the hot tubs as well.... More

I am sorry to hear that your stay at Gulf Crest this time was not a pleasant experience. I would like to address the issues that you had. If they would have been reported to the office then we would have taken care of them immediately. The elevator was down for one day and was scheduled for maintenance that same... More

We stayed four nights December 25-29. Unit 1902 through VRBO. Very easy owner to work with. Great place and location - a little off the main drag but also very nice in that respect. You can be anywhere - including pier park shopping area in under ten minutes. Pools were awesome - heated pool - very nicely heated for a... More

We arrived at Gulf Crest on July 24th. We have stayed here before in a three bedroom condo and loved the location and the layout of the condo. We stayed on the 22nd floor in a 3 bedroom on the end. No luggage carts to be found had to lug all belongings up by hand via three very hot trips.... More

We had a family reunion vacation at Gulf Crest, and rented over 10 rooms. I speak for all 15 plus families - it was great!! The negative reviews are completely undeserved and credited only to the fact that complainers are more likely to write reviews than those with positive experiences. The rooms were clean, spacious and well decorated. The pools... More
