Our stay at Idle Wave was fantastic! The property is clean, nicely furnished and provides a beautiful view of the Gulf. Everything you could possibly need for your stay is provided, including beach gear and every detail has been attended to. Our teenage sons and their friends enjoyed the downstairs area while my husband and I occupied the loft area. We could not have asked for better beach access to both the gulf and the bay. We would definitely return to this property.

Perfect for 3 Generation Family Vacation

This is a beautiful condo with amazing views of the Gulf. We brought my mom with us and the loft area was perfect for her. We love being able to walk to the beach. The kitchen and bathrooms are stocked better than most places we have stayed. Can't really walk to anything besides the beach but the drive is short.

Wonderful

We enjoyed our stay. The ocean view was wonderful. The condo was very nice and clean. We loved the clear water and white sand! Very relaxing to be on the beach during the day and play Uno in the evening and enjoy the view. We would also go watch the sunset from the canal. We loved it! Thank you!

Good host, clean condo

The condo was very clean and in a good location for families. We have small children and it wasnt too crowded. We stayed the first week of August and the sound was actually more rough than the gulf side. But the location was great so the beach wasnt too crowded. Communication was great with the host.

We had a girls trip to enjoy soaking up the sun. This was more like a home than just a condo. Next time we book it we will know to only bring our clothes. This beautifully decorated home was fully stocked. And had an icemaker that actually worked!! And Good beach chairs for customer use. The location was away from all the hustle and bustle of the stores/restaurants but the trolley took us right there. (Only runs til Labor Day weekend). Therefore it was a peaceful beach time! Not over crowded one bit!! At night seeing the moon and stars off the balcony was breathtaking. Wildlife spotting was also plentiful .At first I was bummed because it is across the street from the beach, BUT the walk was literally less than most wooden walkways connected to a beachfront. The owners communication with us was always easy and quick.
This appears to be AI, but it is not. Low lights b/c of turtle hatching timeframe. Just WOW-
