Welcome to 'Lookout at the Beach!' "Like" us on Facebook.
Our building underwent significant improvements in the past year. The stairways have been renewed, the balconies refurbished and the elevator modernized. Gulf Place Caribbean has become the jewel of Gulf Place.
Gulf Place itself has been significantly upgraded. Still, it has the same Gulf Place vibe and numerous amenities have been added all within walking distance. The tennis courts have been resurfaced and one of them has been turned over as a Pickleball court.
Several restaurants are on property, most notably Renaissance, a cozy French-themed bistro with menus that are superb. Cava and Cakes has taken over the Amphitheater and promises to have concerts, a farmer's market and other events.
Rates have not changed from last year and now is the time to book for spring and summer of 2025.
For the interior of the unit we did a major overhaul in 2019, but now we are continuing to renew and refurbish the unit. We replaced the sofa and replaced the love seat with two comfortable armchairs. New dining room chairs were added and we replaced the aging balcony set with two poly wood, bar-height Adirondack chairs. A little paint here, a new lamp there but it's the same welcoming environment with the spectacular view of the Gulf that only units on the top floor have.
Also, an LG 50" flat screen smart TV and Blu-Ray player offer access to the major streaming video services, including Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, YouTube and others. Updated colors throughout and many other updates and conveniences. We are constantly looking for ways to add value.
*****Please note. During the summer season, we are accepting bookings on a Saturday-to-Saturday basis.**********
We accept credit cards, (Visa, MasterCard and Discover) as well as e-Checks through Vrbo, a secure website.
*** As a prospective guest, you should be aware that if the VRBO listing is done by an additional management company, additional charges could be added. This is in addition to the VRBO booking fee. As our only rental property, our only additional charge is a modest cleaning fee, one of the lowest in the building. ***
We have a security deposit that is usually returned as soon as the cleaning team clears the unit.
