"Smack dab on the beach" and gulf front!! Treat yourself to a "Titanic" view from our balcony. You'll be able to see as far out to sea and up and down the beach as far as the eye can see. Truly a million dollar view with an affordable rate. The type "B" floor plan is the only one in all of Sunbird with the bedroom on the gulf. There are several floor plans in The Sunbird, some with a more direct view of the gulf.
We've rented a pair of beach lounge chairs with umbrella for your use to also enjoy the view on the beach. Dolphins, stingrays, bird activity, ships and oh yes, people watching are all fun to do. Enjoy!!
Surf by the surf - as a convenience to our guests we have installed Hi-Speed wireless internet, encrypted for your security, inside our condo. We also include at no cost to our guests local and long distance phone calls within the continental USA. Sunbird also offers unsecured wireless access.

Sunbird is a gated community that is family-oriented and is located on Thomas Drive next door to the famous rib house "Pineapple Willy's. Just a ride down the elevator and a few steps through an adjoining gate and you are ready for a mouth-watering lunch or cozy sunset dinner on his pier. Walk back via the beach!! If you need groceries, Wal Mart is very near - walk or drive over. Play golf at Signal Hill which can be seen from The Sunbird. There are other shops and restaurants within walking distance.
