This is our third year staying at GSP! I haven’t had a bad experience yet! The condo was exactly as described. Had plenty of dishes, a crockpot, coffee maker, and toaster! Was very clean. We enjoy all the pools while we are there. Would definitely recommend!

Great Location and Place for the Price!

Great quieter location with a beautiful beach area and plenty of pool options. This was a great place for our family of 6. Owner was responsive to my questions. The condo size was small for a family our size, but for the price feel like it is a great option! Be sure to bring extra supplies as there is just one of each item (toilet paper, dishwasher pod, coffee pod, kleenex). There is a Dollar General close by. Great location to be away from the business but close enough to enjoy all the area has to offer!

Family Vacation

The only reason I am giving this a 4 star review is because we had to provide the little amenities. Toilet Paper, Napkins, and Trash Bags to name a few. Overall the property was amazing and the condo was beautiful. It was a little snug for a family of 5 but it worked just fine. Would definitely go back, will just be more prepared next time.

Excellent experience

The following are the highlights, as too many great things to say here: locale, the condo was clean, nice decor, great amenities within the condo to include a completely equipped kitchen with everything needed for meal preparations. All appliances worked flawlessly. Very comfortable and appealing accommodations. Short board walk to an excellent beach with miles of white sand and leisurely walks. Short distance to Fort Morgan, and several trails leading to the seashore nearby. Short drive to a seafood market and to a Dollar General store. My only recommendation would be to include a broom and dust pan (and maybe a mop?), as we would have liked to sweep some of that sand we had velcroed to our feet and shoes regardless of how careful we were! Overall a wonderful condo and beach stay and would highly recommend to anyone wanting a quiet beach getaway, especially to avoid the crowds at Destin etc.

We stayed with 4 kids under 9. As someone else said, it is small, but it works. There are bunks in the hall, the couch pulls out to a full bed & of course there is the bedroom. There's a full kitchen, stocked with basic pans & dishes, so bring some groceries. Our condo felt like we were staying at a friends, which was nice. The hot tub isn't hot, just barely warm, so don't get excited about that. But there are plenty of pools, plus the indoor pool, and of course the ocean. We brought kites & we all enjoyed flying them on the beach. Bring plenty of beach towels. It was a nice vacation.

Spectacular Sunrise and sunsets on the beach!! October 2024.

Although beach was a short walking distance, will get a beach front unit next time. Somewhat noisy with neighbors above and beside me. To be expected since it was the shrimp festival. Beach buggy does not work and the furniture needs to be cleaned. Overall, satisfied with stay.

Fantastic Family Vacation

We took our 4 kiddos on their first beach vacation. Perfect set up for 2 adults and 4 kids. Condo was the perfect size and a super sorry walk to the beach and swimming pools. Balcony view of the ocean and waves made for great time doesn't having coffee in the mornings. Owners were beyond helpful and friendly when looking into potential bad weather and even assisted us in tacking an extra night onto our stay. Thank you for giving us a space to make long lasting memories with our family.

The Bare minimum

The property was very small. Smaller than the pictures. Condo was dirty and sand was everywhere. No broom or cleaning supplies to clean up other than a wet swiffer sweeper.condo had 4 bathtowels, 1 trashbag, 1fry8ng pan, and 1 dishwasher pod. Main Pool was crumbling on the edges. Concrete and tile. Pool firniture was absolutely disgusting. Moldy and dirty and rusty. Condo came with two rusted out beach chairs. This condo and the whole property needs a deep clean and an update to amenities.

What a wonderful place for the family!

We stayed here as a family (2 adults, 3 kids- aged 6,9,16) this past week and it was amazing! There was plenty of room for all five of us in the condo, and plenty to do within walking distance, that we weren’t in there very much! The property has six pools! There is a large indoor pool and hot tub in our building and it was amazing to have during the storms. The outdoor pools were all great as well! For the adults, there is an adult only pool in front of the building, next to the beach. Speaking of the beach, it was beautiful! You must go out there for the sunsets, too! The little guys loved having an ice cream shop within walking distance. They also serve delicious coffees! The iced sea turtle is divine! Sassy Bass is a cute bar/ restaurant attached to one of the building on property. They serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We ate there a few times and it was great! There are also basketball and tennis courts right near our building! The owners have thought of everything to make this cozy place home. I loved that the end tables in the bedroom, as well as the bar tables in the living room had extra outlets with usb ports. That was highly convenient with everyone’s devices. The bathroom had storage bins and towel hooks for everyone’s stuff so the family could stay organized! I thought that was a great idea! The condo was super clean and inviting when we walked in! Check in and out were super easy. We would definitely stay here again!

We really enjoyed our stay at Escape to Serenity! The condo is clean, cozy and stocked with everything you need. I loved the full size kitchen, and we made good use of the beach cart and chairs.
