We had a great time at this house! We had 3 families with 5 kids between 6 and 8. It was great being so close to the beach and the pool was perfect! We will definitely be back.

We absolutely loved our stay! The location was beautiful, and we practically had the beach to ourselves. The beach was easy to access, and the wooden dock was especially helpful.The home was exactly as pictured; clean, beautifully decorated, peaceful at night, and spacious enough for our family of nine. The beds were comfortable, and the water pressure in the showers was fantastic!The pool quickly became one of our favorite spots when we weren’t at the beach. The kitchen was easy to navigate, and the large dining table gave us plenty of room to sit and enjoy meals together as a family.My only suggestion would be to upgrade the pots and skillets and provide a few more size options, especially for larger families. Other than that, we had a wonderful experience and would definitely stay here again!

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.

Hi Joshua, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at Life Is Short! We're so glad you enjoyed the house, great location, private pool, and beautiful ocean. It sounds like the elevator was a nice bonus too! We especially love hearing that you're already planning to come back next year. Thanks for the recommendation, and we can't wait to welcome you back!

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.

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!

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!

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!
