Beautiful corner condo with a great view of the bay. Condo is roomy and was perfect for our family of 8 to include all grown children and one early teen. Beds were very comfortable, kitchen had everything you need to make a great meal, plenty of linens and towels. We enjoyed our stay and will be back!

We go to the beach every summer and this is a great condo. We felt very comfortable and accommodated from the second we walked in. Great restaurants are within walking distance and everything we needed was nearby. We enjoyed our stay and will be back next summer!

We loved our room. Loved the lazy river and the smaller pool on the side. Everything was very clean and nice. Grilled burgers our last night. Very family friendly place. Great place to take your kids.

Rosa, thank you so much for this great review. We love hearing that you felt at home in our condo and hope to see you back soon.
This condo is fantastic. Its super spacious and just so well appointed. The beds are amazing. Everyone said they had the beat sleep they'd ever had. We did a quick weekend with our kids and grandkids and they all want to book our family vacation here for next year.The only thing... this isnt a criticism just so folks know, while the kitchen is very well stocked with pots and pans, bakeware etc, you need to bring everything to cook with. Even salt and pepper. I didnt even think about packing that. Just plan for that. The lazy river was a family favorite. Our 5 year old granddaughter loved it and said it was one of the best beach trips!

The condo was very spacious. Could have used a deep clean (I'm picky) but surface was clean enough. Great lanai, beds were super comfy, huge TV, well stocked, nice overall. We had a great time.
