* Pet Policy: Your dog is welcomed in our vacation rental. 1 dog per stay under 50lbs with a $125 non-refundable deposit. Additional cleaning fees will apply should there be excessive pet hair in rental and/or on bedding and furniture. Please adhere to our pet policy.
Sandy Turtle offers spectacular bay & sunset views while providing quick access to the Bayside lazy river pool. Choose to relax by the pool, float down the lazy river or catch the latest game on tv on your private balcony; you will never miss the views. Take a morning walk on the walking paths & see numerous varieties of birds. The bayside location is perfect for those that love amazing sunsets, serenity and to fish, bring your pole and waders! Have fun in the evening with maybe a s'mores outing by the fire pit. The Beach Club & Beach is also yours to enjoy, both are less than a 2-minute drive across the road in your car, with onsite parking available. Rent a golf cart and utilize the "underground" tunnel and pathways to this area.
This condo offers: King size bed in the master, 1 queen in second bedroom & a full size bed & full over full bunks in the 3rd guest bedroom (Pack N Play). Sleeps 9 comfortably. Equipped with 3 High Def LED TV's (one on the balcony) and WIFI.
