The owner left hand made beach themed cookies (such a nice touch!) and the place was decorated top notch. They thought of everything to make the stay convenient. ##### tom P.

We really loved our stay at Sand Dollar! The property host, Mike, was helpful and an excellent communicator. The condo was super clean and comfortable. The beds and showers were great! The best part was waking up, having coffee, and enjoying the ocean and sunrise on the deck. Staying right on the ocean is the most magical experience. This was a great location for daily beach walks, Publix and the fishing pier in walking distance, and excellent restaurants nearby. We loved the care and attention to detail that you put into your condo to make it a top-notch place to stay. Thank you so much and we hope to see you again! ##### Lori L.

This was our third stay at either Sand Dollar or C-Scape so, obviously, we keep coming back. The fabulous condo offers a spectacular view, a perfect outdoor space, access to a beautiful walkable beach and easy access to a grocery store and St. Augustine. The condo was super clean and has literally everything you need (I have yet to stay anywhere else that is as well equipped as this one). You could literally just bring a toothbrush and a bathing suit and you would be all set. Communication with Mike was great and the checking/checkout process was easy. Already looking at dates for next year! ##### Guillermo F.

This condo was well appointed, close to everything and quiet. So close to the beach you can hear the waves from your bedroom (and I don’t mean with the windows open). Everything we needed was provided beach wagon, beach chairs, sand toys, umbrellas, grill, even a foot pump for our mat. Beautifully decorated, kitchen appliances were top grade and all supplies for kitchen you needed. Bed was very comfortable. We stayed for a week and it was simply perfect. Would be great for a family also. If you see this condo listed I would not hesitate you cannot go wrong here. Thanks again Mike and Karyn for sharing this condo. ##### Shumaine M.
