1. Spotted Grouper, Alligator Point, Florida


My family and I rented a beach home named The Spotted Grouper in Alligator Point, Florida for the last week of July 2009. The owner, Joel Whitworth, asked for payment in full before he would reserve the home for us. Upon arriving at the Spotted Grouper, we headed straight for the beach and were shocked by what we saw. The water had a thick, muddy look and there were some dead fish on the sand. It was clear there was something wrong with the water and we would not be able to swim. We went in and called Mr. Whitworth immediately to let him know that the water conditions were not acceptable. He advised my husband that it was best we leave right away and he would see about refumding our money. We ended up staying at Mexico Beach which was lovely, but on our return home when we contacted Mr. Whitworth, he denied saying anything about giving us back our money and told my husband he was nuts. We went on the internet to see if we could find anyting out about the water conditions in Alligator Point and found an article stating that the bacterial levels were unsafe and that it was among the ten worst beaches in the state as far as water condition. I would recommend to everyone to stay clear of Alligator Point and Mr. Whitworth.
