Perfect Spring Break

Great condo with everything we needed to have the perfect Spring Break. The views are beautiful from the balcony and the couch. We enjoyed the free use of their beach wagon that made carrying everything to the beach easy. Nice pool and grounds.

Perfect location on the gulf.

Check in and communication was easy and efficient. Property is perfect for long walks on the beach. The pool is large and right off the beach. Direct view of the gulf from the condo. Beautiful sunset view from the balcony. We plan to book again next year.

Fun spring break 2025

We enjoyed this unit and had a lot of fun using the pool and relaxing on the beach. Beds were super comfy , shower water was hot which was great every night. Had plenty of space and everything that needed was already there. We are going to re book as soon as I find out our kids spring schedule soon!

Excellent stay

The condo was perfect for our smaller group this year! We love the area, as we have returned to Indian Shores again this year! The condo was clean, spacious, and well stocked with everything we could want or need! And, of course, the views were gorgeous! We were sad to leave this year, but plan to return!

Great location in Paradise

Jaco Bay condos are the perfect place to stay in Jaco. The setting is gorgeous yet close enough to walk to the beach. The condo had everything we needed and more… pool noodles, beach towels, chairs for the beach, plus a terrific water filter system so we didn’t feel the need to buy bottled water. We’d definitely stay here again.
