This condo has been thoughtfully redesigned with a family-focused approach, offering a brand new kitchen fit for any level of culinary experience, upgraded bathrooms, all new furniture and decor throughout, lightweight feather down bedding, ample seating inside and out, and Smart TVs in every room. Time on the beach will be made more convenient thanks to four foldable beach chairs with built in umbrellas which are yours to enjoy during your stay.
