We go to the beach every summer and this is a great condo. We felt very comfortable and accommodated from the second we walked in. Great restaurants are within walking distance and everything we needed was nearby. We enjoyed our stay and will be back next summer!

This condo is fantastic. Its super spacious and just so well appointed. The beds are amazing. Everyone said they had the beat sleep they'd ever had. We did a quick weekend with our kids and grandkids and they all want to book our family vacation here for next year.The only thing... this isnt a criticism just so folks know, while the kitchen is very well stocked with pots and pans, bakeware etc, you need to bring everything to cook with. Even salt and pepper. I didnt even think about packing that. Just plan for that. The lazy river was a family favorite. Our 5 year old granddaughter loved it and said it was one of the best beach trips!
