We really loved this condo! It was in a convenient location. It was right on the gulf with absolutely beautiful views. There was covered parking with easy access to the floor for loading and unloading. It was just a short walk to the beach and pool. The condo itself was clean and a great setup! We had a wonderful stay. The checkin and out process was seamless, all done through text and/or email.

This unit is ideal if you park on the third floor (top) of the garage (some portion is covered on top, some not). From the garage you can walk just a short distance to the unit. If you need to go to beach then you would need to ride elevator down, which is right around the corner. Unit was clean, pictures shown are accurate. Spouse thought the beds were more firm and slightly uncomfortable. Beach is clean, water is clear. Some exterior building maintenance on the walkways is being performed during the day but nothing extremely noisy. Second time visit, would return. Property Management Co was easy to work with.

From check in to check out we had a great experience. Beach Manor 309 was lovely with the perfect location and views. We enjoyed the pools and also took advantage of the grilling area. Gibson provided great service with prompt responses for all of our questions and needs. Because of this I highly recommend and will use them in the future.

Gibson Realty was great to work with for our last minute Condo is as pictured (the real view out to the beach is even better!). The amenities (pools and outdoor restaurant) were perfect. Just be sure to ask if there is maintenance going on at the time of your stay — we got to know the painters and sandblasters pretty well crisscrossing through their gear but all nice and not really a big deal for us. Overall a great experience..

This specific unit is ideal. The third floor has a spectacular view of the gulf and sand dunes with a balcony to enjoy your coffee in the morning. Parking on the top level allows you to walk directly to your unit without having to use the elevators, which can't be beat. This building is the last high rise next to the park and the beach to the left is virtually empty. We had absolutely ideal weather and will definitely be back.

The condo was nice and the view was great. The only negative were the uncomfortable beds.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Thank you so much for your review! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us, but are disappointed that you found the beds to be uncomfortable. Saatva mattresses are considered a premium mattress, and were just purchased last year. Finding the right fit for everyone when it comes to beds can be tricky. The owner has tried very hard to find a mattress that accommodates all body and sleep styles. We're sorry that the mattresses weren’t up to your expectations, but are so happy that you had a wonderful stay overall. We hope to welcome you back soon!

Location was great! The Condo had everything we needed plus so much more. Parking is so convenient from the 3rd level, you just unload your bags & walk straight to the condo. Skip the elevator & your just steps away from the front door of the condo. The free bike rental was a nice surprise even though we didn’t have time to go. Very happy with our stay & look forward for the next stay here

This condo was very comfortable and clean for our week stay on Miramar Beach. The staff was very responsive to requests as well. The view from the living room and balcony was excellent, as pictured. The facility was very family friendly as well, with a couple of pool options, along with an easy walk over the bridge to the beach. I would highly recommend, and would say there's a very good chance we rent again! I would also add, it's the last of the high rise buildings on this stretch of beach, so if you're looking for a bit less crowded space, this is it!

We are so glad you had an excellent stay and enjoyed the facilities. We look forward to booking you again in the future!

The view is everything! Modern decorated & beautiful condo in an immaculate, gated and beautifully landscaped resort community. Publix grocery store is a five-minute drive away. We loved eating our breakfast at the hightop table and chairs in the dining area and looking out at the ocean! The balcony can be accessed from either the living room or the master bedroom. Our only suggestions are to upgrade 1) the beach umbrella to one that is sturdier and can withstand the wind, and 2) the bathroom towels. Management communicated well from arrival to departure.

I rented the Beach Manor #309 and the place was exactly as described. The view was fantastic. The patio was very small but the view outweighed that aspect.

We had every amenity possible and on top of that comfortable beds!! The inside of the condo was spotless and even offered a washer and dryer. everything is so close by, shopping restaurants! Louis Louis was the best restaurant by far! We also rented bikes! I would rent from here again and again!! We will be back in the fall! Thank you for going above and beyond!!

I took our three boys (15,18,21 yrs old) to Tops'l for July 4th vacation. We have been to Tops'l before but we had not stayed in Beach Manor. Condo is spacious, great location, easy access from covered parking lot. Obviously these units are not new and there is some wear and tear but not enough to cause concern. The only concern with this unit is the lack of draining in the showers. Other than that issue, we were very pleased with the unit.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Oh no! We are so sorry to hear about the showers. We would have been happy to fix that immediately for you, had we known. You may always call us with any issues or concerns, that's what we're here for. We're happy to report the showers have been taken care of now, thanks for the heads-up. We're happy y'all enjoyed your holiday and the condo. Come back & visit again soon!

Excellent. We stayed at the same location 2 years ago with our son and his friend. Very impressed then. This time just the two of us. Loved it. Exceeds expectations & lovelier in person than in pics - and the pics are beautiful. All the details, the activities, the LOCATION. You guys think of everything. We used the party fishing boat coupon and had a great time. Crew and captain knowledgeable and helpful, boat very clean and well organized, saw dolphins, met some folks from Waukesha, caught fish, and ate some of the fish that night - that the captain cleaned. We were on the Destin Princess. We saw a movie at the local theater and went to the Donut Hole - their key lime pie is a MUST do! We just get one to go. EDEN STATE PARK was beautiful. Only $4/car. Gardens, trails, history - loved it! Sunsets from our patio were spectacular. Worked out in the Fitness Center regularly. Soaked up the sun on the emerald coast.
Thank you for a wonderful stay!

We were very pleased with Beach Manor 309. The unit was clean, beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with cooking and storage utensils. We also used the sofa bed and still had room to get around the sleeping teenager. The Big Daddy free bicycle rental in Blue Mountain was a very nice extra. We biked over to Seaside for lunch and shopping. The only thing that was a problem was parking our oversized truck (F350 FX4); too large for the parking garage with only 6'5" clearance. So bring your smaller vehicles... ha ha! The balcony is a little on the small side, but it was still a nice place to hang out alone. I would highly recommend this unit. A VERY BIG THANKS to Emily ***** for getting us into this unit!!! Sorry we didn't get to stop by and visit.

WOW! What a great review! This warms our heart to hear our hard work and focus pays off for our guests!

The rental process was so smooth. I used the phone app for everything and never had any issues. I would rent from Gibson Beach Rentals again. Now about the condo. Beach Manor is directly on the beach and is a very clean building. As for the condo, photos do not do unit 309 justice. The unit had been updated and was absolutely beautiful. Everything was very clean and they had the small things for us to use that we didn't think about, like beach chairs. I think the biggest positive for us was the deserted beach. I highly recommend both Gibson Rentals and this condo for a smooth and enjoyable vacation experience.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Beach Manor. The condo is quite nice, and the view couldn't be better. Everything was as expected (clean, maintained, and QUIET). The bathroom and kitchen are very functional and no complaints, but the owner did mention intention to renovate soon after our stay, which was late Oct 2016. Again, there was nothing wrong with the bathroom or kitchen--just a little out of date. Gibson rental staff were very responsive. We could not download the app for check-in, but they notified us by phone the day of check-in, several hours early, that the condo was ready and provided all information accurately and conveniently. I would certainly recommend staying at Beach Manor and would stay again myself. The beach is only steps away as well as 3 pools, a steam room, hot tub, and the nature trail on the grounds is nice for a quick run. I would highly recommend making use of the free bike rental. It is through the owner who was very nice and told us exactly where to go on the scenic bike ride through miles of lovely beach towns.
