We needed more time! The weather was fantastic. The pools and beach front were spectacular. The only negative I could possibly say is the pools are not within walking distance of the house. This is easily overcome with some kind of transportation. The house was beautiful inside and check in was a breeze.

Great place to stay before our cruise!

Our family consisted of 5 adults and 1 child, we were very comfortable. Sherry responded quickly to all inquiries promptly. Had issues with the elevator, however we were informed that a new one would be replaced within 2 weeks of our visit. Amenities were great! Enjoyed lazy river, club pools, and beach. Only minor detail I would add is to include more wash cloths. Would definitely book again! Thank you Sherry!

Magnificent!!

This property had it all! The owners have thought of everything! So well stocked and clean!!! The patio and the views were amazing and perfect sunset/bird watching. The A/C blew cold and the owners have provided fans in every room. The property amenities were wonderful as well. You do have to purchase a wrist band but it is worth it! We figured out you can drive on the beach at the Beach Access 36 or you can walk across the dunes at the resort. It was just a long walk with so much stuff. We hope to stay here again that’s how nice it was.

Yearly girls trip

This condo was beautiful! Lots of room for all five adults. It would easily accommodate two families with children. The views from the large balcony were perfect for our mornings. The pools were relaxing and clean. The private beach was easy to get to and was also beautiful and relaxing. The restaurant and bar had friendly service and the sunset from the rooftop bar was breathing! The condo had all the amenities necessary to make our stay pleasant. We did stop for groceries before stopping at the condo. I don't recall seeing a grocery store close by so I am ad we did. It is a hike to either pool or the beach so you will need to either rent a golf cart or drive your car.

This was our second time staying at Pointe West, but first time at this particular unit. The condo was perfectly clean and very well stocked. Plenty of room for our family of 4 adults and 3 kids between the ages of 5-9. Pointe West is a great community with the multiple pool options and a nice beach that's not too crowded. Highly recommended.
