An overall great stay for my husband, myself, and our three kids (baby, preteen, and teenager). It was beautifully decorated and a convenient location just steps from the pool.

Great beach vacation spot!

We really enjoyed our stay! Condo was extremely clean, comfortable and well stocked. Close to restaurants, shopping and minutes drive to beach access road. It was really nice to have access to 2 pools on the property. The cute thatched roof on porch provided good shade, although after a few rainstorms we did wish it was waterproof. The outdoor furniture got soaked, but a minor issue considering how great everything else was. We will definitely be back!
