This condo was perfect for us! Donna was great at communicating and we knew exactly what we were coming into. There were some beach supplies in the condo, everything was clean and beautiful! There is construction happening in the complex, so it was dusty and a bit noisy occasionally, but that didn’t bother us! My family of five really enjoyed our time here!

Absolutely the best stay ever! this place was so nice and so clean. It was worth every cent we spent

This place couldn’t have been any better if I had of packed and stocked it myself. They had it stocked with anything you would need for a day on the beach or a day at the pool along with toys and games for kids and chairs to sit in on the beach. they even have everything you would need to cook a three course meal with if you chose to stay in and cook. if you are looking for a very nice and clean place to stay this is it well worth the money! we will be back.

A few challenges

The condo itself was really nice!!! Much more outside construction going on than expected. Elevator near our condo was out of service so it was quite the challenge to load and unload our gear.

Was exactly what I was looking for

Great communication with owners throughout the trip, perfect size for my family two adults and two children. We enjoyed the swimming pool. And easy access to beach across the street.only thing was as soon as we entered the master bedroom did have gnats for some reason maybe because it’s near the beach. Although they went away once we sprayed insect repellent on us. We are looking forward to returning soon. Thanks you.
