Great condo in a great location; close to Publix, and new retail coming within walking distance! Easy beach access across the street, and a great pool and hot-tub that our kids loved. The bikes and beach stuff was great as well. This is close to my parents’ place, so we will definitely stay here again!

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.
