"Beautiful condo. It lists as beachfront and it is, but you can’t go to the beach there. It’s a fishing beach. Also, lots of construction around the condo. Many codes to learn to get around and an elevator was non functioning. The condo was beautiful with everything needed. Curtains and sheets were a bit old and worn but the place was lovely."
Allison
Customer Relations Representative
Gloria, We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that you found the condo beautiful and well-equipped. This property is beachfront. However, the listing clearly states, "* The beach at East Pass is built up on a seawall and is for sunbathing only, public beach access is next door." It also states that, "Property improvements are taking place next door." We're glad you enjoyed your time on our beautiful beaches and we thank you for choosing RealJoy.

"Beautiful condo & view - This condo has the most beautiful and updated furniture & decor, and it is so comfy. The view is perfect. The harbor and gulf all on one. The master bathroom is also a huge hit. That mirror 😍 the only downside was the elevators being out for a couple hours one day during our trip and we had to take the stairs but great vacation overall!"

"Wonderful Stay - Pictures don't do this unit any justice, it was gorgeous! There was nothing like waking up in the morning and looking out to the ocean view from your balcony. The unit was very clean and we had no problems at all during our stay. There were multiple codes for doors and elevators, so it was very great security at this unit. I do wish that this property were pet friendly, as we did miss our little Yorkie during our stay very much. This unit was across from marina from where most of the restaurants and boardwalk were, so every night we could see the lights and hear the music from there. (We were not kept up by the music, you could hear it from the balcony but not inside the unit.) I highly recommend this unit!!"

"The views from this condo are spectacular… Don’t miss every evening as the sun goes down and the lights come up on the canal. It was truly breathtaking. The beds were very comfortable and the condo is very clean. Communication from the property management company was outstanding. We enjoyed every minute although it was very stressful to have to have a code to get into every door and every gate. You could not leave the property without having paper on you with all of the codes because your phone might go dead. The three pools further north of the condo were very nice for swimming. Overall, we very much enjoyed staying here."

Customer Relations Representative
Ashley, Thank you for the 5-star review of your stay at East Pass. We are happy that you enjoyed the evening views and were comfortable. We're sorry about all of the codes. Most of our guests prefer them to keeping track of keys. We appreciate your acknowledgment that we're good communicators and are glad you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for choosing Realjoy.

"Cute condo with a beautiful view. Everything was clean and well put together. Location is convenient to the boardwalk and plenty of shops and restaurants close by. It was cold so we weren't able to enjoy the beach. But we went to Floyd's , Margaritaville and ordered pizza from Landsky's which was delicious. We would definitely rent this condo again. We really enjoyed ourselves."

"Tranquility - We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in 407. We were looking for a last minute, comfortable and relaxing getaway and it was just that! The view is absolutely gorgeous! The furniture, inside and out, was very comfortable and the beds were amazing! Management was very helpful and went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. The only thing I would improve on is having one code for everything instead of individual codes. Other than that it was perfect!!"

"The place was great and the location was great. Just wish we had picked a better/warmer time of year. Room very neat and clean and we did appreciate the gift basket. My advice, is to make sure you read all the info they send to you about the entering the building, I did not and was a little confused. It is gated, so you you have a gate code, elevator code and room code. Plus a code to enter the pool area. We used Lyft more than Uber to get around. Lyft was more reliable."
