Great house and location. We will book it again next year. Pool was perfect and the ocean was fantastic. Houses around it didn't have an elevator and the neighbors were jealous for sure. If you are on the fence....book it. We had a great time.
Joshua - Posted: 8/1/2026

The home was wonderful. It had everything you could need. The kitchen had everything you would need to cook just about anything. The view was great and the area was very quiet and family friendly.

Really nice place to spend quality time with the family, loves the heated pool

This was the perfect house for our family for the week. Location was great and relaxing.
Samantha - Posted: 10/17/2025

Property was very well kept and modern. Location was great. Staff was very helpful when the elevator had an issue and just had one of the inner doors not closed. Maintenance came right out for that. It could be finnicky but we got the hang of it and it was nice to have, especially when bringing stuff in and out for the stay. Views were nice, close to the beach. Pool was great as well, not deep but deep enough that you could float around in it. Would definitely stay here again!
Chantal J. - Posted: 8/14/2025

Spacious stay in a great location.

The home was spacious which was great. The location was perfect and had a boardwalk to the beach which was nice. The pool was a nice sitting pool, not great for swimming. The home was clean but did have dishes in the sink when we arrived and trash in the garbage. We just assumed they forgot to clean that up. It is better to call the property managers if you need something rather than text. It is easier to contact them that way for a response. Overall we had a nice stay and even stayed an extra night.
Katie - Posted: 7/1/2025

Thank you for your detailed review, Katie. We're glad you enjoyed the spacious home, perfect location, and boardwalk to the beach. We appreciate your feedback about the cleanliness and communication and will work to improve those areas. We're happy to hear you had a nice stay and chose to extend it. We hope to welcome you back again soon!

Thank you for sharing your feedback, Felicia. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the elevator being out and the ant issue in the kitchen. We also appreciate you letting us know about the missing dish towels, slow freezer ice production, and lack of extra blankets. We will address these concerns with our maintenance and housekeeping teams. We hope to have the opportunity to improve your experience in the future.

Life is short

The house is amazing! With great views and plenty of cozy accommodations for the entire stay. It’s just a short ride from the famous raw bar in Indian Pass. The nearby lagoon is awesome for fishing and catching blue crabs. The pool was nice and warm even in the cooler November weather. We definitely have plan to stay here again!!
Anonymous U from Casper Wyoming - Posted: 4/29/2025

Thank you for your kind words! We're so glad you enjoyed the stunning views, cozy accommodations, and nearby activities like fishing and crabbing at the lagoon. At Experience Gulf Coast, we’re committed to creating immersive and relaxing vacation experiences year-round — even in November! We can’t wait to welcome you back for another memorable stay!
