Great condo! Clean, spacious for our group of 3. Very pet friendly. We had a nice, relaxing week. Doesn’t have a beach view but it was close to both pools and quiet overall.

Thank you for your review. I’m so glad you had a relaxing week and you thought the condo was “great” and “clean.” We hope you’ll return!
A pretty easy walk to the beach from this condo. No water view from here, but we did not expect that. Being first floor & pet friendly was great! Appreciate the grass just outside the patio not being totally off limits like some condo communities. Everyone was very courteous about cleaning up after their pets, as it should be.
Terrific stay! Great location-hosts always responsive. Will be back! Great floor plan and full amenities! Beautiful, updated decor-bed was super comfy.

Thank you so much for your review. We’re so happy to hear you loved the condo and had a terrific stay. Looking forward to hosting you again in the future.
Great location. Easy access to pools and ocean. Loved having beach chairs and umbrella available. Unit was nice. Too many plants and decorations taking up valuable counter/table space. Pots in the cabinet were dirty but washable. Would have liked a cutting board. Ground unit with wonderful walk out from living room and bedroom which was perfect for quick dog access. Would definitely stay here again.
Location was wonderful. Loved the convenience of the first floor was amazing. A very short walk with the ramp to the private beach was lovely and the included beach set up was very nice. The front row of beach set up is for owners only, so get there early (before 7:30) to get a good spot. So many fun local things to do.

We work hard to keep this condo sparkling clean!
It is a great location! There's plenty of things to do (besides relaxing and enjoying the beach)! There's also plenty of places to eat within close vicinity! There's even 5 restaurants that you could walk to!
This condo was perfect! The decor was warm and inviting. The appliances, kitchen tools, and dish selection were very nice as well. Lots of nice touches that make a stay comfortable (rugs at the side of the bed, afghans on couches, rugs in the bathroom). Outside furniture was comfy and we ate outside many times. Our condo was pet friendly and our Zoe loved the yard! We would definitely stay here again.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. It was such a pleasure getting to host you. We hope you’ll return in the future!
Absolute perfection! Great property and location! It was great being able to take our fur baby and not have to worry about her. It was great the beach chairs and umbrella were included in our stay. Being on the ground floor was another bonus for us! Short easy walk to the beautiful beach. Restaurants very close to the condo. We loved it so much, we stayed an extra day. Owners quickly responded to every question. We will definitely be back to this location.
The condo was super clean, the hosts communicated and sent everything in a timely manner. The location was not very far from the beach, it was literally less than a 5 minute walk , private beach access is superb so you don't have to worry about finding a parking spot. Food , and stores weren't too far from the unit. I'm super glad the beach service was included for this unit , I would definitely recommend staying here again!

Why they chose this property
We love that this condo is conveniently located on the ground floor so you don't have to worry about stairs or elevators. Also, pet owners love this unit because it is so close to the pet area. The last thing any guest wants is to be stressed on vacation -- this condo is a relaxing getaway just steps away from the pool and beach.
