Plantation Palms
This was not my first rodeo in the GS area, nor at Plantation Palms. The location makes it a bit of a drive for a quick trip out, at least if you want a lot of eating options. There are places nearby (including in the resort itself). Same goes for groceries, though there is now a Dollar General within a few minutes drive. Keep in mind that this a large complex, so there can be a lot of people on the beach, but if you are willing to walk a quarter to a half mile, you can usually get away from the majority of people. Also, the Plantation sits several hundred yards of the beach, so it is a bit of walk to get your toes in the sand.
The condo itself was well-appointed. Having two recliners facing the sliding glass doors (and the Gulf), was really nice. The kitchen is small, but that's expected. The living room is quite spacious, with plenty of seating for 6. The bathrooms are a bit tight, but both have shower hoses, which is a huge plus when at the beach. Only 3 "complaints". The master BR mattress/bed was a bit soft, but not near the worst I have slept on. The builder placed the master BR ceiling fan/light switch behind the BR door when it is open. really weird placement, but that's not the owner's fault. The balcony furniture is all wicker, and very uncomfortable for long periods of time.
The owner, Starr, was great to work with and highly responsive. Best compliment I can give is that I would happily stay here again.
