We just returned from a great week in Barbara's condo. A few highlights:

1) It is a really nice space; tastefully decorated and PLENTY of room. 100% 'as advertised'. And the Master bed is SO comfortable!

2) We loved the view from the living area and the porch to the beach. On days with a bit more wind you can hear the waves

3) This is a 'family oriented' beach - even in spring break week. There's easy access to the hubbub of Seacrest, but so nice to be away from it in a quieter neighborhood.

4) The kitchen is well equipped if you plan to cook for yourself. Fridge is big and there's a pantry area in the laundry room for storing food and supplies. There are 4 community charcoal grills down by the pools that you can use if you want to grill. They were definitely well used by us and other families. We never had to wait, and it was a good opportunity to get to know other people who were visiting as we grilled together. Some small nuisances that come with cooking away from home (e.g., we forgot to bring our sharp chef knives that we usually bring to a rental kitchen; we usually had to run the dishwasher twice a day vs. once at home to avoid running out of silverware).

5) The BEACH... OMG... so stunning. The water is every bit as pretty as the Caribbean. And we got lucky and it was warm enough to get in the water in April. The beach is wide, flat, pearly white.

6) Barbara is super responsive... She was great about answering questions before we arrived. (e.g., recommending Goatfeathers seafood market). We had an issue where a prior tenant damaged some cookware but put it away as clean. I emailed Barbara to let her know of the issue and ran to Publix to get a pan to make pancakes the next morning. While we were out, she called and had already made arrangements for her housekeeper to bring replacements by the next morning (which was EASTER)... Really above and beyond what we would have expected from her and from the housekeeper.

7) Spotlessly clean. No need to say more.

Things to be aware of:

1) There is a beach service (chairs/umbrellas) that sets up in front of the entire property every morning. We brought our own chairs and umbrellas, so to get our own beachfront view we walked a bit further (e.g., 1-2 minutes further) to a space in front of some houses nearby. If you have mobility issues, plan on using the beach service.
