  We were very pleased with our stay! We were one block from the beach and less than a block from the "main drag". The pool, though on the smaller side, was clean and fenced so on a windy day we were still able to be outside enjoying the weather and sunshine. The interior of the property was current and clean. Open floorplan was nice for socializing. TVs in every room. Washer and dryer was handy for our week-long stay.Very fast Wifi. Owners were very good to work with and communicated well. The property is on the second floor of a four unit townhouse so it was quiet. While at SPI we visited the Battlegrounds, Birding and Nature Center, Sea Turtle, Inc. (turtle refuge). We would definately recommend this property and SPI was a charming place to visit.

  Property owner was quick to respond & easy to work with. The location was great...close to beach for morning walks & within walking distance to several good restaurants. The Big Donkey was a favorite...good food & great happy hour specials! Photos accurately depicted all aspects of the condo. While it was a little cool to use the swimming pool, we did enjoy soaking up the sun in the back yard with our toes in the water. We especially enjoyed having everything we needed to grill a few meals...nice picnic table, grill & tools. On Sunday, check out the farmers market on the island for fruit, veggies, music & more. Would definitely rent again & recommend to others!

  We stayed in this beautiful condominium for a few days during the winter. The property is very well maintained and comes with everything you need -- in the kitchen, linens etc. Just a short walk to the beach or head the other direction to shopping and restaurants. Pictures on this site are exactly as we experienced. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again.
