Wonderful relaxing stay. Enjoyed our time. Peaceful place. Had everything we needed - only suggestion is having a pulley system like some neighbors do; since the stairs to unit are steep for carrying items. Loved the view from all the decks !!

Great place and value

Easy beach access, bay access and pool. Nice bonus to have access to beach chairs and wagon in storage locker. Perfect floor plan for family of 3 plus a friend. The living area was spacious and comfortable. The beds were comfortable, not too hard ir soft, just right. Far enough down the beach to be less crowded. Would definitely stay here again. I appreciated the simple clean decor and having just what we needed without it being cluttered.

Beach Trip

We enjoyed our time together at this amazing condo. Everything that you needed was provided including an extra fan in both bedrooms. The beds were so comfortable. My husband and grandson loved the fishing pier located behind the condo. The pool was nice and we enjoyed being away from the high traffic areas. We would certainly stay there again!
