My family loved our vacation here.

Loved the tennis courts, pool, bikes, views from both sides. Also really appreciated all the beach and game equipment that was there for us to use.

Roomy condo, quiet, well run, nice pool. EV charging is needed in the garage. Red tide dampened beach visits, traffic on the island is a problem.

Clean and loved the water behind us with the manatees and the beach in front!

The only negative- needs updating. Pretty much everything except the kitchen. Everything was clean and thankful for that!
