Beachfront condo

We were pleased to find our location as pictured. The condo has updated kitchen, plenty of cooking and eating supplies, comfy beds, fans everywhere, yeah, washer dryer, unbelievable sunsets and softest white sand! Only negative is heavy traffic due to construction work. Otherwise a very nice place to stay.

Nice property. Some minor cleanliness issues including a stained comforter on our bed. Linen quality isn’t as good as some other places and there was no additional toilet paper of paper towels in the unit - first world problems for sure.

Perfect Beach stay

We had the most pleasant beach week at your condo and cannot wait to return! The condo must have been recent remodeled because everything seemed brand new. The kitchen anticipated all our needs. The beds were comfortable. Management was attentive and quickly corrected a tv issue. The icing on the cake was the wall of glass that allowed us front row seats to a perfect sunset each night. If you are looking for a bit of old Florida, this is your haven.

Beautiful Unit with Amazing View

This condo is actually nicer and more specious than it looks at the pictures, they hardly reflect the WOW impression when you step into and see the ocean right in from of you . The unit is large, clean, beautifully decorated, the designer picked furniture is very comfortable and cozy. The kitchen is specious and well equipped. Having our morning coffee at the balcony was a favorite part of our day. Overall it was a very enjoyable week, we recommend this place to all the Beach lovers. Hope to be back one beautiful day!

Amazing!!

The unit was well equipped and perfect location on AMI. What the listing doesn’t say is that it has SO MUCH beach equipment!! Two umbrellas, at least six beach chairs (including two zero gravity loungers), plenty of boogie boards, noodles, tubes, lots of sand castle supplies and a sand wagon to tote it all. And having all the beach equipment in ground floor storage unit kept the living space free from sand. Perfect!!!

Lovely and clean, on the beach

We chose this property about a month in advance as we had to change plans due to Hurricane Ian. I was a little worried because this unit was still available. We were absolutely pleased 100% with this unit. Being directly on the beach was the most important amenity for us. This unit delivered that. It was spotless, the kitchen was beautiful, furnishings felt new, more space than we really needed. Don't pass this one by!

Island Getaway

Gulf front is indeed 100% true, absolutely stunning and beautiful! Location and listing was as described! Did not encounter any major issues. Communication and check in very simple and straight forward! My only complaints are the fact that they don't supply you with enough towels, our group showered everyday, by the end of the first few days we were left scrambling for clean wasy cloth and towels. Considering that you provided your home and offer it as a business for people like us to rent, these minor details should be taken into account, especially at the higher price point. Also, maybe providing a nicer starter kit, laundry detergent, toilet paper, salt/pepper, etc, these small but very important details go such a long way for frequent vacationers like our group! Overall, beautiful property, wonderful place to relax and unwind!
