Unobstructed direct view of the beach! Clean, comfortable, and modern styled condo. Plenty of space to spread out as a family of 5. Direct access to the beach with a rinse/ shower station on the way. The daily chair and tent set up was an appreciated luxury. Close to shops without the crowds. Would stay here again!

We loved it!The property was very clean. We loved waking up in the morning and being able to sit out on the patio and listen to the ocean. It was very relaxing and the kids loved playing on the beach. The beach chairs and umbrella were definitely nice!!Steve was great and had everything ready and organized way before you arrived.

Just returned yesterday and we are already missing the turquoise water. The pictures online are accurate, but they really don't give you the true, incredible view. Crystal clear water, sugary sand beach that doesn't get hot and you can roll out of bed and be on the beach in 3 minutes. The condo is super clean and the beds are super comfy. Great place for a great price. We will absolutely be back and will be recommending it to our friends and family. And, thanks to Steve for being a great host!!

About the host

Hosted by Stephen Bowden

Host profile image
I am a retired physician with a loving family living locally, enjoying all the beauty and wonders of the area, and sharing opportunities to enjoy waking up to dolphins playing right out in front of you in their own habitat.

Why they chose this property

This neighborhood is quiet, safe, close to the most popular shopping areas and unique restaurants, being perfect for families wanting privacy and convenience.

What makes this property unique

It’s the best unit in our area because it showcases the best unobstructed panoramic gulf views throughout- being the corner, top floor unit, directly on the Gulf. Couple the views with convenient parking, complimentary beach service and no hassles - just beach front at your fingertips! Inside the decor is luxury upscale coastal with all natural pure linens and appointed details set your comfort and convenience. The ease of parking steps away from the condo, checking in, and walking straight out to the beach all within 5 mins speaks volumes.
