Gulf Winds East #40
John and his staff at Harmony have been very accommodating to work with. Our unit was clean, the kitchen was well stocked, plenty of linens. The livingroom furniture needs replaced as does the dishwaher. The location is ideal, with the gulf right across the street. We plan on returning next winter.

Had a fantastic week
Very nice unit just 5 minute walk to beach and some great little places to eat nearby. Great kitchen. For 8 people the sofa hide a bed has to be used. Could use an upgrade on that. And a fan comes in handy upstairs. Overall 9 out of 10.

Gulf Winds East 40
We had a blast staying at the rental property. It was very clean and well-maintained. The only thing I didn't like is that you are not able to take your own pet to the facility to stay so I had to board my dog for 2 weeks.

Home away from home
Vacation rental was visually better than depicted in some of the exterior photos. Recent updates made this place look really nice. There were lots of needed cooking utensils, etc, although many lids were missing for some if not all the pots. I found the AC to be slightly undersized and the upstairs area would be warmer than downstairs, but thats seemingly typical of a 2 story unit. The location was just right for us as well, very centralized. Otherwise for the price it was very comfy and my family and I enjoyed very much. Would definitely consider again.

Family beach vacation
The property and location worked out very well for us, our son and daughter-in-law and three grand children. This was the first time the grand children have been to the beach in Florida. The beach was very clean and with the gated access for the condo property, made it very convenient.

Fantastic Time, Much Needed Family Vacay
I've stayed here before but this was the first time we came with just the kids and had a family getaway. It was amazing. Being off season and with bad weather that was scheduled to hit, the beach was not busy and beautiful!! We rented bikes and the place itself was great :) Kids had a blast, we cooked wonderful food and had an amazing relaxing time.

Great experience!
Our condo was very clean and well maintained. The kitchen was magnificent and adequately stocked. Providing basic necessities, such as, small shampoo and conditioners, toilet paper and dishwasher detergent allowed us to relax the first night and not have to go shopping. We had an issue with the barbecue grill having mold growing in it, but reported it and another one was brought to our rental while we were at the beach. The living room blinds were also repaired in a timely manner. The only negative thing we experienced was the bunk bed mattresses. We spent a lot of time cooking and enjoying the spacious accommodations when we weren't at the beach. We will definitely be back!

Gulf Winds East 40
My family spent a week in Gulf Winds East Unit 40 in June 2016. The unit was beautiful, clean, and in a perfect location to many area attractions. The private beach is just a short walk away. Price is competitive. We enjoyed the quaint condominium setup to the large mega resort we had stayed at previously. Highly recommend this location/unit.

Nice and clean
We rented 3 condos, this was for another family so I'm not sure what he thought of it. I did walk through and thought that if was very nice the kitchen was more spacious than the other two and the bedrooms were upstairs . My condos had the reverse bedroom downstairs and kitchen upstairs. Anyway, it was nice ,but I think next time he will pay a little extra to get the condo in the front of the property .

GWE 40
This is the second year we have stayed at GWE. We love the location and the price. The only problems we had were the wifi did not work and the patio furniture was rusted. We could connect to the wifi, but had no service once connected. Other than that, our stay was perfect. We'll be back again.
