  Great location with many amenities - large balcony comforatable for six adults (three couples). Great access to boardwalk - restaurants, beach shopping and water rental places. A few basic items that could be improved - no paper products (Kleenex, paper towels, napkins, etc.) or beach “stuff” (umbrella, towels, chairs, etc). I would recommend it!

  We had a great week on the beach! We have been coming to Madeira Beach for 30+ years and have stayed at the Crimson before, as well as other Sunhost properties. We have always been very pleased and this trip was no exception. Everything about the room was great. There was an issue with the water for the property (beyond their control), but the staff was very proactive in keeping us informed. We have zero complaints and would highly recommend staying at any of their properties

  Beautiful condo! The were 6 of us and we had plenty of room. We enjoyed being right across from John's Pass also! Only complaint was the pool next door (which we overlooked) was open late and noisy some nights. Not a deal breaker, otherwise wonderful view from our balcony. Would definitely recommend this condo unit, we had a great week! Thank you Sunhost also for professionalism and friendliness!

  Della W from Fairdale, KY does not recommend this vacation rental.

  The actual condo was amazing! Plenty of space and adequate dishes to cook and eat with in a truly functional capacity. The Crimson property is still in disrepair from the hurricanes last fall. All the properties next to them are repaired and quite nice, but the pool and fence situation made us feel like we were in a prison yard. No beach vibe at all. That was very disappointing and made me listen to my husband complain about it for the whole week. The HOA needs to get it together because many vacationers were not happy about the pool area. Also the office staff seemed to take offense when questioned about the repairs and spoke to us like we were stupid because of the hurricane. Just some forewarning about the pool and hot tub area would have been nice.

  Dena J from Columbia City, IN recommends this vacation rental

  We loved our stay at the Crimson #203. We were pleased to find that the condo had 3 bathrooms. I somehow missed that when I booked it. When you have teenage girls, the more bathrooms, the better. We loved the living space, the spacious balcony, and the bedrooms were a good size also. The kitchen was well equipped. The location was perfect for us, close to John's Pass. I liked the size of the building, not many units, so it was not super busy in the parking lot and elevator. I also liked that it sets back a bit from the beach, but the view was still perfect. We spent a lot of time on the balcony enjoying the view. The unit is decorated nicely. The only negative thing was that there were not any non-stick pans, I had one delivered from Amazon. Beautiful condo, perfect location, and great views. I cannot comment on the pool, it was closed for hurricane damage. Thank you for sharing your home away from home.

  Crimson and Sunhost did provided another great experience. Unit bathroom showers need attention (grout and tile bleached out). Trash odor on property is bad. The flimsy trash bags provided are always going to break open in the trash shoot which may contribute to open trash.

  Unit 203 was terrific. However, the pool was in desperate need of a good cleaning. The hot tub was not working. The pool and beach gates were a pain for a big family due to only having two keys. It seemed like we were always searching for who had the key.

  Crimson was a step up from other John's Pass accomodations we have previously stayed. Facility is well maintained and the SunHost staff have been very friendly and responsive. Happy to renew for next year and with increased rental rates expect unit and facilty to be in great shape! Long time Madeira family and it never disappoints.

  Nancy M from Punta Gorda, FL recommends this vacation rental

  Our Condo was a beautiful 3-bedroom 3 bath unit. Beautifully decorated with beautiful etched full length mirrors in each bathroom. The furniture was very comfortable, the TV a large screen for everyone to enjoy.
  
  The only problem is the one guest room did not have sufficient A/C. It was very hot in there especially right before the sun going down. The A/C was not fixed, but the problem was resolved.
  
  The Hot Tub was spectacular. Very Hot and Relaxing. The pool was a nice size. Pool maintenance could have been better. The pool person left and there were still leaves and debris in the bottom. He took some of it but not all.
  
  I am only giving 4 stars because of the A/C. It was a perfect location and a beautiful condo. Hopefully the owners will have it fixed.

  Emily J from Greenfield, IN does not recommend this vacation rental.

  Crimson 203 was overall a very nice condo. Updates, room sizes, and comfort were all commendable. However, the unit was not without major problems. The first day I walked around the condo without shoes, my feet were black as coal on the bottom. Thankfully, there were supplies for me to clean the floors, but I would have expected them to be clean before we got there. The master bathroom smelled like urine, and there was a spot of mold in the northeast corner of the master bedroom (with the ocean view). Finally—and perhaps worst of all—one of the shower doors fell onto my mother while she was showering on the first morning. Luckily, she wasn’t injured, and to their credit, the owners (or Sunhost?) ensured the door was repaired in short order. Nevertheless, I was disappointed in all of the issues we experienced during our stay.

  Great place to stay! Just remember you will need to buy ALL kitchen paper products and dish cleaning items like paper towel/napkins, scrubby for sink, and tinfoil. A little hard the first night to use towels to wife your hands and face then washcloth to wash sink dishes. Most items are provided but a small starter kit with those items would be nice.

  This remodeled condo was perfect for our girl’s trip with 6 women. It’s difficult to find 3bd, 3ba lodging in this area. It would only be better if we hadn’t had to haul our lounge chairs (we had to buy them at John’s Pass) down to the beach each day and then back up.

  Check in was easy, Barbara was friendly, very nice and extremely helpful. We got to our condo, it’s a beautiful place. Very high end furniture throughout. It’s the small things that made me not so happy. Toaster needs to be replaced ASAP. We had 45 wine and Margarita glasses which was REALLY overkill. 4 teaspoons, a million knives that were not sharp. mix matched dishes. No hairdryer in any bathroom, no shelves in showers. The floors were dirty in the kitchen and living room. The pool was dirty everyday. No restrooms by the pool. YUCK! For the price we paid these things should have been taken care of before we arrived.

  Our vacation was wonderful, but interrupted by buyers, inspectors and realtors quite a few times. My recommendations for the new owners,
  a thorough cleaning, louvered doors are dirty, some pots and pans need cleaning, if not updated. Knives are not sharp, and a griddle would be a great addition. If you are doing a major renovation, an entry into the guest bath from the bedroom would be wonderful, for when adults are staying in the twin room.
