Everything is very clean, very good, the pool is excellent, but the most important thing is that I see no one taking care of security because on two occasions homeless people who live on the streets entered the pool area and the bathrooms. I did not feel safe on that side, neither for me nor my family, it is an important issue. I hope they resolve it soon.

My wife and I stayed for 5 nights and the location is very nice, close to everything, the tram runs from the park to the beach for $.35 (great deal). Walmart is right next door to the park. The pool is very nice, I can see it being very crowded when the park is full. The restrooms were not open, they did have port o let’s? Not bad but we’re not there at the busy time.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our Home Away from Home – Gulf Air RV Park We’ve stayed at Gulf Air RV Park many times now, and it’s truly become one of our favorite stops. As a full-time RV family, finding a place that feels safe, welcoming, and well-cared for is priceless—and Gulf Air checks all the boxes. The staff here are some of the kindest people we’ve met on the road. They go above and beyond to make everyone feel at home, and you can tell they genuinely care about the park and its guests. Everything is always clean and well-maintained, from the sites to the common areas. One of the things we love most is the community. Many of the guests are regulars, and it gives the park such a friendly, familiar vibe. It’s the kind of place where people wave, stop to chat, and look out for one another. As a traveling family with kids (and a dog!), that sense of connection and safety means everything to us. If you're looking for a spot with great people, peaceful surroundings, and top-notch care, Gulf Air RV Park is it. We’ll keep coming back as long as they’ll have us! — The Bay Family

This company that owns it is pure ridiculous. They make it seem like you’re buying a mansion with the hoops you have to jump through. Showed plenty of income but credit score was low also showed plenty of money in the bank account. Denied my application on my credit score. But they allow felons in no problem.
