Perfect getaway!

This was our third time at Pointe West, but our first stay in one of the condos. It was spacious for our family of 6. The location overlooking the bay was amazing. We rented a golf cart allowing us flexibility to get to and from the beach and club house. The property and location were really enjoyable.
