Celebrations of life changes!

Came to celebrate my husbands retirement and my daughters graduation from Vet Med School from the University of Florida. Location of this Condo was perfect ..... wonderful views and close to restaurants. Darlene had everything decorated so cute and had everything you need to stay in for a home cooked meal or take food out to the beach for a picnic. Simply put it was perfect!

Beachy escape

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay in this property. Our host was so nice and very responsive. I totally messed up our date of arrival but our host immediately recommended an alternative place to spend our first night. We thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the upper deck which has a gorgeous view of the ocan. We highly recommend this property.

We very much enjoyed our stay at this property. Location was fabulous! Beach access was so close and chairs and umbrella were provided which were appreciated.

Great place to stay

Property has a great view of the ocean, especially from the balcony. Location is in a great area with everything you could possibly need or want to do near by. Beach is private access and a two minute walk away. Very family friendly. The owner, Darlene, is awesome and very easy to contact. She truly cares about her tenants. The property is well stocked with essentials and more. It was also very clean when we arrived. We will definitely be staying here in the near future and telling our friends and family about this place.

Great place for the family to relax and enjoy the beach!

Wasn’t sure how spring break would work out for us this year, but started checking out VRBO for option in case things started to open. This property hit all the wife’s requirements: balcony view of the beach, white sand beaches and we could bring the family dog. Dolphins put on an incredible show that first morning. Has a great time at a great beach property!

Can’t beat the location!

The location of this property is amazing, you’re about 30 steps from your PRIVATE beach access. We never had trouble finding a spot to set up bc this section of the beach isn’t crowded. Darlene was easy to communicate with. Beds were comfortable, balcony view was perfect. We will definitely be returning!

Perfect spot on the beach!

Family of five and we had a great experience. The homeowner was extremely responsive, reached out to give us info on the going ons of the community, and made sure we had everything we needed. The house was great, as advertised, and in a great location. The views from the deck in the morning with a cup of coffee were perfect, and the stroll to the beach or two nearby restaurants couldn’t be shorter. 10/10 would recommend and would stay again!

3 day girls trip was perfect. The condo was clean and had everything we needed. It’s in the perfect location with a clear view to the water and took 2 minutes to be on the beach. We walked to restaurants and a really good coffee shop. The owner was super helpful and quick to respond with any questions. We are already talking about when we can book our next trip!
