We had two couples for a long weekend. We were very impressed with the unit. Clean. Had lots of extra towels, sheets and blankets. Kitchen was well stocked. Beach views from balcony were great. Especially enjoyed the two high sitting andirondack chairs. Nice walk down boardwalk to beach. Property manager on site was quick to answer any questions or to assist. We enjoyed this place very much and will definitely revisit this property.

Great place to stay!

Our family has stayed at Ketch several times, but this was our first time in this condo. The condo was updated, clean, and stocked with everything we needed during our brief stay. This is an end unit, which we liked because it felt a little more private. We love staying at Ketch and prefer it over other places we've stayed on Amelia!

April 2024 vacation

Condo was clean, well appointed kitchen, balcony overlooking the ocean, comfortable mattresses, condo was as pictured, plenty of comfortable seating for the 4 of us. Especially, appreciated Stay Better Vacations' attitude of, you are on vacation, so you should not have to clean. Had to do the least at this condo before checkout than anywhere we have previously stayed. Would definitely stay here, again.
