Review of Unit 16C
by Dennis
★★★★☆ 4 of 5
We arrived late morning to check in and was informed that the unit was not available at the time due to wanting to get really cleaned. When we checked in and went to the unit it was not as cleaned as expected. There were dust balls that need ed sweeped up and a big bug inside. Also in the bathroom with the shower tub it appeared someone had gotten sick and did not get cleaned up very well. The tub in the bathroom was also slow draining. This not a complain bit it would have been nicer with a fan on the front porch. Other than the above mentioned items we felt the place was relatively descent. The resort was really nice and the location to various things was acceptable. Not sure if we would book again at this time. Thank you. Dennis Rettke

Purple Parrot Vacation
by Watertown TN
★★★★☆ 4 of 5
Overall Comment
The Purple Parrot Resort is a nice place to go to relax and have a good Vacation. The pool is excellent and the Tiki hut is a Great Selling point. The Tiki Hut with its food and live band and drinks makes this resort worth going. The unit that we stayed in was in a great location and very big inside. it would not hurt to have it updated inside but it was still a great place to stay. I would like to buy the unit myself if available.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Purple Parrot & Andalucia!
Plenty of room, and very comfortable home. Only thing I’d change would be adding a king size bed.
Thank you for sharing your home.

We had a great time at the Purple Parrot and enjoyed our stay there. The only thing that I have a complaint about it that the front door didn't have any type of blinds or shade and people can look in any time.

Simply Amazing
★★★★★ 5 of 5
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The condo was gorgeous, relaxing, clean and included all the essentials we needed for the entire week. It really felt like home and I want to commend the owners for thinking through every detail a family may need or find useful during their stay. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to enjoy a fabulous stay w/ awesome ambiance.

As always we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The accomodations were excellent. Really appreciated the new changes to the unit. This is a first class residence. Although we had a rather unusual winter, we made the most of it. Iced in, frozen waterlines out front, etc. made this an odd wimter. See you next winter!!

Staff was friendley. Condo was first rate. Clean, and everything worked as it should. Close to everything, beaches, fishing, shopping, resturants, and NaS. We come from a much cooler climate, and the ac was a life saver.
We were there for the 5th Marine Scout Sniper Reunion. The pool gave us a great common area to meet and hang out. Everyone had a great time.

★★★★★ 5 of 5
I am military. We just moved to the Pensacola area and we needed a place to stay for 10 days while waiting for the house we are renting to be available for move in. I just recently returned from Deployment, and with the move happening so quickly afterward, it has been a stressful time for me and my family. The gated comunity atmosphere allowed us to let our hair down and let the kids have a little more freedom to play and have fun. We loved the pool, and the kids spent nearly every waking hour splashing and playing there. The 2 bedroom condo (Andalucia 16C) was a little more expensive than the other smaller condos, but with 3 kids, the extra space was well worth the cost! I would recommend the Purple Parrot to anyone!

New Experience
★★★☆☆ 3 of 5
The enviroment was different-the Tiki Hut and swimming pool together was different-it was a plus in some ways but a minus in others. The availability of food and drinks was good-but the fact that you could not bring your own food and drink was a minus. The convenience was a plus, if you were just 2 adults, but when you have a group of children that you have to pay for the food and drink, it becomes costly. I understand the Tiki Hut has to make money. I guess I don't understand why the condo management doesn't own the Tiki Hut? The entertainment of the Live Band was a plus. The condo Unit itself was okay-except the fact that we had to rent 2 to accomodate our family. We like to stay together under one unit. It made it more challenging because we had to go back and forth to each condo to get different things. The restrictions on the number of people in a unit-I think is is ridicilous. I mean for a 1 Bedroom, one family(Husband, wife, and 3 kids ages 10, 4, and 1) was pushing it-we had to beg to allow the baby.The parking situation was horrible on one night. There should be space for 2 vechilces per unit and we had 2 units but only 3 vechicles and did not have a place to park- one of us had to park on the opposite side of the condos and the other had to make-shift park-illegally. Warning notices were put on the cars-without parking atickers-but that did not help us to have availability-they should have been towed, at least to the front parking lot. It made it difficult when you had to walk accross carrying sleeping children. Parking needs to be monitored more. The units itself were sufficiently supplied. The only other suggestion would be-for the smokers out there-is maybe put a gallon tin can outside on the porch-for smokers to throw away there cigarette butts properly and not on the grounds.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback. I am glad that you mentioned enjoying this condo, the bar, grill and pool. Having the bar there requires that guest not be able to bring drinks into the outdoor pool area. This is to further work to facilitate the family-friendly atmosphere throughout the day by way of monitoring consumption of alcohol so that they are able to ensure that no one is having too much. The one bedroom condos have a maximum occupancy of 4 people, the two bedrooms 6 people and the three bedroom condos up to 8 people. Each of the condo receive up to 2 parking passes and the parking spots are first come first serve. Additionally throughout the summer we have had security walking through the parking to identify the vehicle without a pass. Vehicles without a pass have a notice left of the windshield (in case their parking pass had simply been misplaced or fallen off the rear-view mirror) rather than towing them off. The closest tow yard is a 30 minute drive and the wrecker service will not simply move vehicle without being paid first. If in the event the person fails to produce a parking pass we will have the vehicle booted or towed. The one night in which the parking was harder to come by was likely a Saturday (our turn-day for the condos) and coming back to the resort at night during the summer often means that the prime parking spots have already been taken. Thanks for the feedback concerning smokers. The onsite maintenance personnel works to keep the property looking clean throughout the year. I personally hope that they clean up after themselves just as those who don't smoke, but will pass the suggestion on to the property management as your suggestion to have a designated smoking area makes good sense. Thanks again and I look forward to having you return. Kindest Regards, JD Hallam PKRM Rental Manager

A Refreshing Visit
★★★★★ 5 of 5
Our overall experience was very pleasant.
Each individual helped to contribute to a great getaway. We felt safe a secure there.
The beach was not too far away, and was clean. The only bother, and it wass not much of an issue for us, was the sound of some early risers in the attic: I presume it was likely squirrels. The a/C air intake was fairly dusty, which stirred up some allergies for a couple of the kids, but everything else was wonderful. I love to cook and found everything I needed to make some great meals. Appreciated the ease of getting in and out without great hassal.
Thanks for a welcoming environment and a comfortable sercure place as a retreat.

Great for kids
★★★★★ 5 of 5
We had a wonderful experience at The Purple Parrot. Excellent location between Orange Beach and Pensacola. The management was great. They had a baby gate that we could borrow to keep our 2 year old off the stairs. Our kids loved the condo. Everything we needed was available. We can't wait to stay again. We love the indoor and the outdoor pool. The only complaint our kids had was about the size of the TV. Since we didn't go on vacation to watch TV, it wasn't really a problem.

An awesome Place To Vacation With Your Family
★★★★★ 5 of 5
The condo was beautiful, there was plenty of everything. The pools were both clean and well attended. The couple in the office were wonderful and very helpful. I just wish we could have stayed longer! My granddaughter told me when we got home that she wanted to go back to our new home and live there forever. We really enjoyed out visit.

Family fun with a touch of luxury on a budget
★★★★★ 5 of 5
The purple parrot is a great resort for families or couples. The townehome style of the condos allows space between the guests and a feeling of seclusion. The condo was spacious and tastefully decorated but family friendly. There were plenty of "extras", such as toaster oven and blender in the kitchen, pool play items, and beach towels. The unit was clean with plenty of linens and towels. The grounds around the condo are pleasant with the indoor and outdoor pools being conveniently located to all units. Pools offer shallow areas for younger children (3ft deep). The indoor pool temperature is kept on the cool side - so in the coldest winter months you will probably prefer the hottub. I appreciated the gated entrance and wrist bands for the pool areas, that limited people on the ground to staff and guests.
I would recommend this resort as great value for money combining touches of luxury and spacious units with a very competitive price tag. You should note the Perdido Key beaches are just a short drive away and with so many things to do around Pensacola, this is hardly a negative.

Our expectations were exceeded.
★★★★★ 5 of 5
This year we opted for the Andalucia because we had a couple of extra teenagers. It was well worth it to have the entire home. The closet was so big that my teenager put a blow up mattress in and called it her bedroom. Each bedroom had a balcony and a bathroom. We loved the friendliness of the staff and the laid back atmosphere of the resort. There were no unpleasant surprises (everything was clean and in working order). Perdido Key is definitely a hidden jewel with less crowded beaches and lacks the tourist atmosphere of surrounding beach towns. We will definitely keep the Purple Parrot Resort and the Andalucia as part of future vacation itneraries.
