See, smell, hear, and feel the ocean in your backyard, just 10 steps away! 🌺
Hurricane survival October-November 2024 discount! Everything looks fine, thankful for your thoughts & prayers! Looking for a romantic & fun time with sun & moonrises over the ocean? This is it. A great place to create lasting memories. Engagements, celebrations for anniversaries, birthdays, and sharing time; mother daughter, father son, sister time…. Or “me” time. Beach is great for swimming, surfing, shelling, fishing, walking, and relaxing to just sit & watch & listen.

Enjoy…. Condo First floor, direct access to beach within 10 feet. Hear the sounds of the waves. Smell the salt air. See beach activities: ships, sailboats, dolphins, fish, birds carrying their catch, parasails, and more on any given day. Watch the tide roll in and roll out. See breathtaking sunrises & speechless moonrises. Look for the stars and ships passing in the night and day as your troubles melt away.
This 900 sq foot 1 bedroom, full bathroom with tub & shower, and kitchen all with direct access to walk onto your beach front property is awaiting you. A hose is located at end of walkway to rinse off your findings, chairs, and feet. Your door is a few feet from your oceanfront walk & view.
Updated tile, paint, crown molding, granite countertops, brand new refrigerator/freezer with ice-maker can all be yours with a fully equipped kitchen (drip & Kruger coffee makers, oven toaster, blender, counter grill, microwave, oven, electric stove top, etc).
This unique little gem is a perfect retreat to get-away, be together, or work within a solitude and quietness as the Atlantic Ocean energizes you & refreshes your soul.
After your fun filled activities; enjoy a restful time watching your favorite TV shows via streaming as you see the ocean waves.
Your walks on land or beach will be filled with extra sights of multi-million dollar estates and private clubs stretching miles going north or south. They are amazing in size, design, and style. Then, you have the natural beauty that is priceless of beach. Your time & experience will be cherished. Nearby Dining: Publix Sawgrass Shopping Center: Nona Blue-ask for high top table outside or sit at outside bar facing road. Ask for their homemade guacamole/ salsa & chips. 🌟🌟🌟 🏝🏝🏝 🕯️🕯️

Views on Intercostal: sit outside: Capps on the Intracoastal Water is an all time top- of-the-list for everything. Usually a wait, but the view while you wait is worth it. You can also order drinks & food (apps) while you wait. Bars (3) are open seating. Be sure to go the the very far back bar as first choice. Sunsets! Like your condo oceanfront sunrise. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 🏝 🏝️🏝️🏝️🏝️ 🕯️🕯️

Reviews are solely my opinion from my experience over the 40 years of dining out. As you know, everyday is different, moods and experiences are personal and that’s what makes them fun.
Ratings are based on a learning curve taking my top favorite places. I am recommending all of the above. The list is not all inclusive… so, if you are wanting more variety.. goggle is our friend.
View: relates to outside, and not to be confused with inside ambulance. No star, no view to speak of outside
Five star best view of outside ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Food Taste & Service 🏝🏝🏝🏝🏝
Ambulance inside appeal 🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯
How do you choose? Is view more important? Then go for the most ⭐️’s. The food at all is good.
Suggestion, first day in: Nona Blue High Top or sit at outside bar facing road. Afterwards, shop at Publix, arrive at condo ready to relax. You are seven minutes from condo.
