Beautifully decorated and spacious condo with marina and sound views! Multiple balcony’s. Great book collection and reading nook with marsh view. Clean, well stocked and organized kitchen. Make note of list provided on what to bring, additional charges for beach towels, etc. and the need to make the beds when you arrive. This was a first for us! Bring white noise machine to help minimize the footsteps from condo above. Overall, great location with a perfect condo!
