“The Good and Bad of Las Brisas Condos”

The positive: Great location, stunning sunset views, easy walking distance to restaurants and Johns Pass, beautiful beach, shells galore, dolphins swim by plenty, lots of room on beach to spread out. The negative: Noisy. If you are going with a family and do not mind noise great! If not beware. … lisää

The positive: Great location, stunning sunset views, easy walking distance to restaurants and Johns Pass, beautiful beach, shells galore, dolphins swim by plenty, lots of room on beach to spread out. The negative: Noisy. If you are going with a family and do not mind noise great! If not beware. Lots of teenagers who are out of control, no security to tell them to stop and parents are oblivious apparently. Can hear the street noise behind on Gulf Blvd in back two bedrooms and its loud!. The master bedroom is noisy from the beach. Not soundproofed at all. Can hear other tenants opening and closing their patio doors. Also unfortunately the red tide has now reached this area so how safe if the water to swim in? We saw a biplane spray the sky with chemical right over top. Guess you cannot get everything you want these days!

Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our beachfront unit. The view was fabulous and hearing the waves was so peaceful. The unit was just as pictured in the listing. The furniture is comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped and we enjoyed the dual function (K-pods or basket) Keureg coffee machine. Trash disposal is simple with a trash chute on the 3rd floor. Communications from the rental manager were very good through the entire process. There is only one relatively slow elevator for the building. If you visit at a busy time you will be waiting on it. There are two supermarkets nearby, a Winn Dixie and a Publix. We enjoyed the fresh seafood from the nearby Rick's Reef _Madeira Beach, try their grilled grouper and calamari. The check-in process at a nearby TRS location went smoothly, however we had difficulty with the electronic door lock not opening when we arrived. The code had to be re-programmed from the office for us to enter which was definitely an inconvenience as it took about an hour. Suggest you do not take your bags up till you confirm the lock opens properly. You are only assigned 1 parking spot and the locations of the spots are totally random which makes it difficult to find your spot upon arrival. Your parking spot for Unit 305 is the 2nd space immediately on the left as entering the lot.

“Family vacation unit #103”

Las Brisas Unit #103 in and of itself was great for our family! It was a clean, fully stocked, well decorated, spacious, right on the beachfront property. Had everything we needed for a family of 5.

Las Brisas Unit #103 in and of itself was great for our family! It was a clean, fully stocked, well decorated, spacious, right on the beachfront property. Had everything we needed for a family of 5. Directly across the street are two restaurants - The Reef and Dockside Dave's. A few blocks down is the new Caddy's on the Beach. There are a couple of gas stations and a shopping center nearby, Publix is only a 5 minute drive. Only a little over a mile to John's Pass (we used FreeBeachRides bc it was so hot). Now for the not so great. The elevator in the building is unreasonably slow. We took the stairs even when carrying groceries because it was impossible to wait for the elevator. The pool capacity is 17 persons and there is no hot tub. No floats allowed in the pool as it is pretty small and there aren't enough lounge chairs to accommodate the amount of people. The unit is right next to the trash chute which is super loud. The noise level from the other units could be heard through the walls. The worst part for us was the extreme amount of tents that lined the beach front. The main reason we had for choosing a beachfront property is for the right on the ocean view. The balcony in this condo is perfect for that. However, there were so many large groups and from sun up to sun down folks set up tents that completely obstructed the beautiful view. Having coffee and watching for dolphins in the morning was not an option. I don't know if we picked a week that was overbooked or if they allowed guests and large parties but it was super uncomfortable to even sit on the balcony. I've added a photo from one of the days but this isn't even showing the worst of it unfortunately.
