Won’t return.
Pros:

The location is great.

Cons:

This was our 2nd stay but this time was really disappointed. We thought we would at least be able to see the ocean but only got a view of the parking lot. Our unit desperately needed some work. The sleeper couch is practically broken and laying in the floor when it pulls out, and very difficult to put back up. One side has a bent spring arm. The king bed mattress is very hard. One sheet was provided for the couch bed and it wasn’t clean and there was no fitted sheet. There were only 2 pillows for 4 people, we had to use the couch pillows. The floor was very sandy and didn’t feel clean at all. There was mold in the shower. It’s also ridiculous that only 2 trash bags were provided for the stay. No dishwashing liquid was provided and when we asked the office for additional supplies we were told we couldn’t even get an extra roll of paper towels. Other resorts in the area provide some extras which is much more convenient especially if you’re there without a car.

Pros:

Units are always very clean and updated nicely. We have stayed there in the past and will continue to do so in the future. This was our third trip there. Well stocked kitchens, bbq grills pool hot tub and right on the beach not much more you could ask for really.

Pros:

I loved how personal the place was and private. Glad it was not over populated. The staff were amazing. Unit had everything needed, even beach chairs and umbrellas. Only thing that I could say needed an upgrade was pool area. The loungers were old and gross and stained my bathing suit and towels

Depends on room
Pros:

The location in relation to beach access is great. However the closer your room is to the street the less beach you hear and the more street noise you get. And since each room is privately owned you never know what the bed will be like. Ours was beyond firm. We didn't realize you could get a bed this hard.

Work-cation in St. Pete!
Pros:

This was a work-cation for us, prior to the July 4th holiday. It was just my husband and I, we are in our early thirties with no kids and wanted a little get away before having a real vacation up in Amelia Island. It was so nice to work all day then hop in the pool/ocean then make or find dinner. We are typically Ritz Carlton type of folks, but Gulf Strand served our purposes for this work-cation very well. Spacious condos with great internet, exactly what we needed.

Cleaning - was as expected for a condo resort. We had a few crumbs in a kitchen appliance, but that's about it. Given how quickly they need to flip large condos, no complaints here.

The space - The condo was very well appointed. The king bed was comfy and we loved having two bathrooms. It was just my husband and I, and we only have one bathroom at home so this was a treat. We were in #307.

The view - I have seen the view brought up in online reviews, you need to understand that this is a small complex and about 95% of the condos have the same view of the parking lot for beach access. If you turn your head, yes you can see the beach, just a sliver. I'm sure you can purchase beach front, those condos seemed to be very large, but if you don't purchase this don't expect a 'view.'

Beach and pool - Pool was small and hot tub was hot, both as expected. The beach out front was lovely. It was almost bathtub like, so it was nice to have a refreshing pool! Our condo had two beach chairs and a few noodles.

This is a condo, not a resort!!
Pros:

Condo was clean, appliances all worked very well. The mattress and pillows need to be replaced. Our biggest issue was the noise - between the mattress, the pillows and the noise, we slept very, very badly.

On site manager very nice and helpful. Fantastic to be right on the beach. Note that resort fees do NOT cover the additional $30/day for lounge chairs and umbrella..

Mostly, though, be aware that this is just a bunch of rental condos. Small swimming pool, old building, right on the main drag.

Pros:

Unit balcony over looked the public beach access parking lot and there was limited angled view of the gulf. Office staff were very nice and helpful and professional. Great location on the beach. Great beach.
