My family needed a getaway and a reasonable rental to get us to the beach. We spent our time on the beach and the indoor pool and the kids loved it. The large dining table was great for puzzles and everyone took part in that fun. My husband and I fished at the pier just two miles away and caught several large sheepshead fish. We were able to have a little fish fry for dinner and that made his whole trip relaxing. We saw dolphins from the pier non stop, enjoyed the absolute best shell hunting trip I’ve ever had, and dined out with hardly any wait at restaurants. The temps were slightly cool but that didn’t bother us. I made some wonderful memories with my family and all the kids can’t wait to go back. This condo is not beachfront but that just kept the little ones off of the balcony really and helped cut our trip costs down. I enjoyed my coffee and the breeze out there and didn’t need the view to be any more because it was still a nice view. With so many amenities at Phoenix we didn’t need to search for other things to do locally, which was another money saver. We have stayed at Phoenix West II before in the summer and intend to come back this summer again! This unit was a better price than if we had split up at hotels (by far) and we all got to be together and comfortable. There is something for everyone to do on this stretch of beach but if you have kids you really have to try this condo! The slide and the lazy river make them giddy with excitement every morning in the summer and even on this spring break they ran down the boardwalk everyday to get to the ocean. My son has autism as well and I love that he knows where we will be because Phoenix really stands out and he looks for the bracelets on people’s arms if he ever feels uncertain of where he is. It’s just a good fit for us with too many little benefits to mention. The family memories are just too good to pass up. I really have to thank the owners for a good rate!
