Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Thank you for this kind review Jerome. We're pleased to see you enjoyed your stay in this beachfront condo and its prime location close to many amenities. We love seeing that you received the true Gibson Beach Rentals 5-star experience we strive for everyday. We truly hope to have you stay with us again in the near future here on the beautiful Emerald Coast!





We just visited 1206 for a long weekend. We have stayed at Beach Manor several times, but never 1206 and this is definitely our favorite! The condo is clean and well-maintained, plenty of storage in the kitchen and bathrooms. Well laid out and a beautiful view from the balcony. We will definitely be back! Also, Gibson beach rentals is amazing to do business with. They have the best customer service by far on 30 A!
Property Manager Response:
Thank you for the 5-star review, Michelle! Our Gibson Beach Rentals teams work diligently to give you the best vacation experience and we are thrilled to hear we delivered! We can't wait for you to stay at Beach Manor 1206 again!!

Hi Mike, Thanks for the kind review. We truly are located in a very friendly community. I see that you left a lower rating for 'cleanliness.' I just want to let you know that you could've called the Gibson Beach Rentals office to have an ambassador come and fix something for you or to schedule a cleaning during your stay. We hope to see you back again!




Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.

Property Manager Response:
What a magnificent view! We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay and so pleased that you found a unit that you truly love.

Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
5's across the board! We love to make our guest happy. We are thrilled that you had such a great trip with us. Of course having a breath taken view doesn't hurt. We do try to go above and beyond for our guest, and add some extras that the other rental management companies may not add. We hope that you have found your new Rental company to work with us, because we loved hosting your trip! Don't forget about our returning guest discount.





Absolutely beautiful condo with an absolutely beautiful view! Wouldn’t change a thing! We had a great time!
Property Manager Response:
This is music to our ears!! We love hearing how much our guests love the condos, the beach and their vacation! Thanks for the fabulous review, we appreciate it.





One issue totally unrelated to the unit was Red Tide, mainly airborne. Nothing serious, a minor irritation but it did impact the entire region's beaches. First time we have ever encountered any beach related issues. Check beach conditions before you come but book this unit, it is a gem.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
You're a gem for leaving such a great review! Thanks so much. We're thrilled y'all loved the condo and we look forward to your next visit. Unfortunately, like you mentioned, Red Tide did make an appearance but we're glad y'all still had a great time anyway.




Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
That's fabulous!! Sounds like you've found a perfect home-away-from-home for your vacations. Thanks for the wonderful 5-star review, we appreciate it and look forward to having you come back again soon. Be sure to mention our repeat guest discount on your next visit.




We had a really good time me and my kids will definitely come back I love my condominium and it was a very roomy enough space for everybody
Property Manager Response:
Yay!! We love hearing this and are thrilled y'all loved the condo and are looking forward to your next visit. So are we! Thanks for the wonderful review, we appreciate it. Be sure to mention our repeat guest discount on your next visit.





Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
That's awesome!! Being next to the nature preserve, you get to see quite a bit of wildlife driving to Beach Manor. We're so thrilled y'all loved the condo and had such a great time. We'd love to have you back again! Be sure to mention our repeat guest discount on your next visit.




Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Awesome!! We're so excited y'all loved the condo and your time spent here. We'd love to have you back, be sure to mention our repeat guest discount on your next visit.




Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
You are a rockstar, Amy! Thanks for a wonderful review. We are so glad your family had a wonderful vacation and thought our processes were easy and stress-free (no one likes a vacation that they need a vacation from). We love this condo and its perfect location, too -- hopefully ya'll can come back real soon, and we'll get you all taken care of!




Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
We're so sorry Candace! We really dislike when that happens too but thankfully it's been repaired and is working great again. We certainly apologize for the inconvenience but are so happy to hear how wonderful a time y'all had. We hope to have you back again in the future!




Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
We're so excited you loved Beach Manor 1206! It's a great unit! Thanks for the wonderful review, we appreciate it!!




Outstanding- first time to the panhandle and couldn’t have asked for a better vacation. The condo was near perfect. There are a few things that need updating but I’m not going to be hyper- critical. Easy access to the beach. Everything you need for a stay is included. Pools are very nice. The staff we ran into was very friendly and helpful. We are definitely coming back and will be booking 1206 again. The view was everything we needed to destress from our busy lives. As always, vacation has to come to an end and back to reality, back to cold Wisconsin!!





Wehave always lived staying in Unit 1206 and Beach Manor...for almost 10 years now. Thanks to all the Gibson Beach for all the help and hospitality. we really like our couches, the master bath, makeup mirror is so handy and a must for all units, kitchen is lovely, views spectacular and the Beach Manor staff are also super. Thehallways always smell and look fresh. The updated workout room is great. the decor in our unit is lovely. The only reason we'rechanging to 710 next year is due to the full Gulf view. We dream of renting a corner unit like 1207 but none available but keep us in mind. here are a few suggestions for things to update: a new welcome mat, a new toaster, a new crockpot, fix the doorbell, have a blanket that is big enough for the king size bed, clean up the worn baseboards. Our friends, Mike and Deanna Stranathan,from Nebraska are thrilled to stay here next January and February. We're happy for them.
Property Manager Response:
Awww - we love you guys so much! Thanks for being great winter snowbirds with us for so many years. We are glad you enjoyed the space and enough to even let your friends experience those endless beach views and nice upgrades the condo already has for next winter. New owners will be coming to the property after you leave and plan on making even more updates, and we are excited! They have already purchased a new welcome mat, toaster, crockpot, and blanket - we store most of those items for back up so please let us know if you ever need anything small like that next year. We enjoy taking care of you guys and appreciate the relationship we have built over the past several years! Take care, and we'll see you next winter!
Your request has been sent. We look forward to meeting all your vacation needs!

Have you ever waited until the last minute to make vacation accommodation plans? Did your vacation opportunity just become available and you want to see what the current deals are? This is a courtesy feature for you to use to bid on available vacation rentals.
Bidding is only allowed for online customers. Do not call about the bidding process-email only, however you can call our office to see what current discounts are being offered. The discounts will be similar to what an accepted bid is expected to be. The bidding form is not to get a lower discount than what is offered through our office, but a convenient tool to use so you do not have to call in. Remember, not all homes will accept a bid, and sometimes, the discounts that we offers will be more or exactly the same as what a homeowner might accept.
If you are within 5 days...make us a reasonable offer.
Please be courteous and only submit serious bids. Ensure that you read and follow the Last Minute Bidding Rules below, or your bid will be deleted and not considered.
Bidding Process and Policies
- Review the properties using our reservation availability search. Each property listing will have a “Last Minute Bid” Tab on the property page and this is what you will need to complete to be considered for that specific home. Find the home you really want before you make a bid.
- Complete the form fully and honestly, and submit your bid. If not completed, it will not be accepted.
- Only submit a reasonable bid. A ridiculously low offer will not be considered and will be deleted immediately. Examples of considered bids will be 10% Off the advertised rate. 3 Nights for the rate of only 2. 15% off a 3 night stay, $150 off the advertised rate…for example. Be smart, you know what a too low bid would be.
- Our Rental Staff will contact the property owner to determine if your offer is acceptable or if a counter offer shall be made by the owner, then we will contact you immediately with the result. If the bid is thrown out due to a low offer, you will not get a follow up.
- When your bid is accepted, you will be required to pay for the lodging in full via credit card (Visa, MasterCard, Discover) and execute our standard lodging agreement within the next 90 minutes. Failure to do so will void your accepted bid, and we will not resubmit for approval. Remember, if someone books before you confirm it, your offer is also VOID.
- Your right to the vacation property cannot be assigned or re-sold. Please carefully review our occupancy guidelines as this is your responsibility.
- Our standard processing fee, Accidental Damage Protection Plan, and taxes will be added to the agreed upon bid submitted below. No exceptions.
- A non-response after 24 hours shall deem the bid to have been unacceptable to the property owner, or thrown out due to an unrealistic offer, so please continue looking for a rental.
- We will only accept the first bid submitted in a given day per person/email address, so only 1 BID ALLOWED. If you bid on multiple homes, all bids will be thrown out. If your first bid is accepted, you will not be permitted to make additional bids unless you are looking at booking multiple homes or a different date.
- Please remember bidding is only allowed on properties within 5 days of arrival and only allowed for one home at a time. Bids that are outside of that 5 day window will be ignored and deleted, as will unrealistic bids.
- Please review the policies and procedures put forth and do not make a bid unless you agree to all terms.
