I accidentally left with her pillow case. The bed linens need to be replaced and pillows too. We went to Wall Mart and bought new pillow cases to use. When I left I took one of hers by mistake. I need to know how to return it. She is outstanding with any concerns we had. The Toliet broke and she had a plumber there in 30 minutes. Kitchen well stocked. Furniture great! Deck furniture wonderful. We will go back!

Amazing stay, easy check in and great communication! The beachfront ocean views were absolutely breathtaking and we loved having balcony access from both the living room and bedroom. The condo was spotless and exactly as described. Extra comfy bed & lots of extra amenities (*only 2 rolls of t.p).Security was a huge plus!! They actively checked wristbands, monitored beach access, and enforced parking so there were always spots available. (It’s worth noting that if you are there during spring break Clayton’s and Louie’s nearby can get busy and a bit loud, but honestly, it wasn’t bothersome inside the condo at all. If anything, it added to the fun…we enjoyed the music and a little people-watching from the balcony!) Chairs, etc for the beach were a great bonus!We loved it so much we extended our stay and were so thankful that 208 was available. Overall, a great experience and we would definitely stay here again!

The condo was very beautiful and clean inside. The only issue we had was we lost internet to condo for two nights and the toilet was barely flushing and then stopped. I messaged the owner to let her know so she could get the amenities fixed before the next person visited the condo. Loved the close access to the beach and despite previous reviews, we really cannot hear the bar on the other side of the hotel next to us. The hotel next to us did play music but they wrapped it up by 11 o’clock each night. The the kitchen, the bathroom, and the bedroom were very nice and looked brand new. The pictures on the website don’t justify how beautiful the condo was. We enjoyed our stay and will be back.

A True Gem

What a great place to stay. It is exactly as described, very well appointed and very tastefully decorated. We had everything we needed to comfortably enjoy our stay. The location is perfect. We would have our breakfast on the deck and listen/watch the surf. Couldn't have asked for anything more. Definitely a place we will visit again and its location on the island was perfect for us. Thank you for taking the time for being so thoughtful and gracious.

Quiet Party

My husband and I booked this property as a birthday weekend getaway. The condo was beautiful and clean, with a great view of the ocean. It was steps away from the beach and had two clean, warmed pools on the property. The property was right next to a big bar and we were left undisturbed, with the doors closed you wouldn’t even know it was there. We were able to enjoy the music from the balcony. The view of the sunrise was spectacular and we will definitely be visiting again.

Working with Waves

We’ve been coming to SPI every year after school is out to spend a week, dogs and kids, working and playing at the beach. We’re so fortunate to have remote jobs and we try to take advantage as much as possible. Wake to the Waves was our favorite by far. Cheryl and the crew at complex was super responsive. The unit was clean and well stocked. The pull out and bed were both comfy. The view was awesome and we all enjoyed breakfast and dinner on the porch overlooking the gulf. Looking forward to booking Wake at the Waves again!
