Description: Friends, family, neighbors, and people who had worked together for years, spending the week having fun in sun. That’s what the Mariners Beach Club was all about, and what a great place for their yearly get together. Most of them were great friends and owned several weeks in a row. There was a big warm pool with lounge chairs everywhere, plenty of places near every door for a small and intimate outdoor meal, two real nice shuffle board courts, and most importantly, the ever pounding surf of the Gulf of Mexico.
We like quiet and privacy. At first, the natural exclusion from the group was offensive, then we got to know them in the pool and other outdoor activities and they knew where the best restaurants were. We found, through them, a great little restaurant called The Wharf, on Pass-a-grill Boulevard.
Our unit was small but the furniture was tropical in design and in good condition. Our bedroom had a sliding glass door that led to a private fenced in patio with a gate to the pool area. The door from the living room, dining room, and kitchen led to nicely landscaped outdoor patios, two shuffle board courts, a Jacuzzi, and gas grills. There were plenty of lounge chairs for those who just wanted to sit and enjoy the ocean.
The partial kitchen was badly constructed and the limited space was cluttered with many, mostly unnecessary, gadgets and small appliances owned by the resort. We had a closet for our things that was away from the kitchen area.
