Our take

Who it suits

A small building between the towers, and close enough to walk to Pier Park for dinner. On Expedia, every guest has to be 25 or older unless they're children traveling with their parents, and pets can't come.

Good for

  • Walking to Pier Park from the sand
  • A Gulf-front balcony in every room
  • Cooking your own meals in a full kitchen
  • A low-rise building instead of a tower

Skip if

  • Someone in your group is 18 to 24; Expedia requires every adult to be 25+
  • You're bringing a pet
  • You're coming with two cars; Expedia says spaces are limited
