just lay back and take it easy.

Perdido Key is not as crowded as some of the other resort communities in this area. There are plenty of great restaurants and shopping. Many activities to participate in or just lay back and take it easy.

Floridas hidden treasures
★★★★★ 5 of 5
One of Floridas hidden treasures. We come here several times a year & get a beach condo on the Gulf. Private & friendly. All kind of things for everyone to do! Looking into moving this way!

We have vacationed here for the last seven years. we like the convenience of being close to orange beach and pensacola for seafood and restaurants. We stay where there aren't a lot of children to deal with and have a pretty laid back enjoyable vacation. We return every year and really enjoy the "personality" of Perdido Key

Perfect place to relax!
★★★★☆ 4 of 5
This was our second trip to the Purple Parrot resort and our first stay at The Sandcastle. We love the location of this resort - it is a great place to relax. The outdoor pool is fabulous although we were sad to see the tiki bar was closed. The indoor pool and gym are great as well. Johnson beach is just down the road so every stay includes a trip there. We also rented a boat from OB Watersports and explored the basin for a day. The condo is a perfect space for a family to vacation. Just across from the pool for easy access, three large bedrooms so everyone had a space to wind down at the end of the day and a kitchen large enough to prepare all our meals (great way to save huge dollars on vacation!). The only negative about this condo is that it was less homey than the last one we rented. This one appears to be solely for rentals as the furnishings are all there but not as comfortable or high quality as we saw in our last one. It felt less like someone's home and more like a hotel room. For example, there are no towel bars near the bathtub in the master bath and no hooks on the doors and the cup and soapdish by the sink are extremely cheap plastic. It is a great condo and definitely worth the price, just missing some of those small homey touches we have seen in other rentals by owner.

Chamber of Commerce offer disappoints some visitors to Perdido
★★★★☆ 4 of 5
My only disappointment with booking this vacation is that one to two days after booking, we received an e-mail offering a 200 dollar credit from the Chamber of Commerce if we booked by end of July. We were very disappointed that we were not allowed to partake in this offer. It should have been offered to anyone who booked during the time period stated which we did. It will make us think twice before we book a vacation in Perdido again since we felt we lost a discount that should have been given to us.

Awesome!!!
★★★★★ 5 of 5
Our trip was short. Just for the weekend. check-in was quick, and the staff was super nice!!! The Sandcastle was very nice, and accommodated all of our needs!!! There was a band that played every night in the pool area. What fun!! We did go over and have a drink or two, but returned to dance on our covered porch!! Ha!! Will definitely return!!! Fyi The beach is a short 5 min drive, and gorgeous!! Loved our short time there!!

very clean condo and great service by JD and Staff
★★★★★ 5 of 5
We have already recommended the Purple Parrot to several of our retired or soon to be retired friends -Its very relaxing, close to the national seashore, lots of hiking trails, miles of beaches.
The condo and complex was very clean and the properties well maintained - we will be back

Perfect family accommodations.
★★★★★ 5 of 5
The Sandcastle was the perfect vacation rental for our family of 5 plus occasional guests. Very spacious and efficient with everything needed to cook in, take care of laundry, hang out at the pool or go to the beach. Off-season rates are incredible!!!

Fun for family time

Fun house to stay in, clean and spacious. Especially enjoyed the oversize dining room table. Todd and Delmay at the Tiki bar could not have been more fun or better hosts.

Spacious well stocked kitchen, lots of room for big family
★★★★★ 5 of 5
The pool was huge and everyone had a great time! We had a family reunion and there was plenty of room for everyone! The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and pots and pans so we didn't have to bring kitchenware, and we were able to make big meals for a big get-together!

Awesome Spring Break
★★★★☆ 4 of 5
The staff and service was exceptional. JD was helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. Johnson Beach is a special place and I miss that white quartz sand under foot already. The only reason I cannot offer 5 stars is the lack of basic accoutrements in the kitchen and worn, polyester bed linens. At this price point, I don't believe these are unreasonable expectations. We will be back. Next time we will bring our own trash bags and request a unit that has nicer bed linens.

It was more than I expected. The condo was clean and beautiful. The pools, both indoor and outdoor were kept beautiful. The location was close to every thing we wanted to do. It was a amazing vacation.

Nice family home

If you have young children this is the house for you. It is children friendly and you do not have to worry about something getting broken. My family enjoyed this home very much.

absolutely wonderful
★★★★★ 5 of 5
Great accomodations, beautiful grounds. We are hosting an exchange student from Europe and wanted them to experience Florida. They experienced Florida at its best, in part due to the wonderful accomodations at Purple Parrot. Not ON the beach but close to EVERYTHING and VERY comfortable, clean, peaceful. Would ABSOLUTELY go again to Purple Parrot by Perdido Key Resort Management.

A Perfect Get-a-way
★★★★★ 5 of 5
The Purple Parrot has been a favorite family get away since 2004. We first visited there before Ivan destroyed the property and could not wait for it to be back in operation.
This is a perfect place for families to come and relax in a fun environment. The outdoor pool is perfect for kids of all ages to enjoy water fun. The indoor facilities are nice and clean.
The condos come equipped with everything that is needed to make any meal. The furniture is in good condition and beds are very comfortable.
We have and will continue to recommend the Purple Parrot to anyone who asks.
