Perfect Family Vacation!!!!

We just had the most amazing week at this property. The home was immaculate, the owner is highly responsive/attentive to any questions or concerns and the location/view is incredible. We loved taking the golf cart to Bruno's pizza and sipping our morning coffee while overlooking the ocean. Cannot recommend this property enough!

Great Vacation, Perfect Location

We had a great time here. The check in process was extremely simple thanks to Cheri. She sent us an online information booklet that prepared us for everything before we got there. The condo was very clean upon arrival and is really nicely done. It is very spacious and both bedrooms have wonderful bathrooms. The location is perfect! One pool is right outside the door, and the golf cart boardwalk to the pristine beach is right outside the condo also. There was ample parking for the golf cart on the boardwalk so it was an easy trip to the beach. We used the chairs and umbrellas Cheri provides with the rental and they were super convenient. There really isn’t a reason to use the rental service for chairs and umbrellas if you don’t want to. We took the golf cart to Bruno’s pizza a couple of times and it was really good. Other good restaurants are not far away either. We couldn’t have asked for a better vacation. Cheri checked in with us multiple times to make sure everything was going great. We’d stay here again in a heartbeat.

Wow! Fantastic and very well appointed property even down to the beach toys! The golf cart was wonderful with my 3 year old granddaughter. Cheri went above and beyond to communicate with us. Check in was a breeze. The location was stellar and steps to the beach and pool! Don’t hesitate to rent this property.

The Vacation We Were Hoping For

Sometimes you never know what you’re gonna get, but with this property, our expectations were surpassed in every way. We’ve been traveling to 30A for years and finally feel like we found a secret location. The beaches are of course amazing and so easy to get to from the condo. You can actually fill the golf cart provided up with the beach chairs, umbrellas and toys that are also provided, drive on the actual boardwalk right to the walkway down to the beach. it takes about five minutes to get there. The condo is even bigger than it looks in the pictures and extremely nice and clean. It’s fully stocked if you wanna cook for yourself or you can walk right next-door to the pool and eat the best mahi sandwich you’ll have in your whole life at the Dunesider Grill. There are beautiful ocean views from all the windows and patios. The neighborhood is quiet and beautiful, so nice to just wander around in. The Florida Fish House is accessible by bicycle, also provided, just out of the neighborhood to the left. You can also easily bike to areas like rosemary for lunch or dinner or shopping. The big chill (a.k.a. The Hub) is right next-door and has an amazing little espresso and breakfast shop. So nice to jump on a quick bike ride and grab a delicious coffee everyone morning before a day on the beach. Can’t say enough about this rental, but we finally had a stress free family beach vacation! Thank you!

Great place!

This condo is beautiful and comfortable. The views are wonderful from every room. Kitchen had everything we needed to make dinners and Publix is a short drive for groceries. Property was very nice and easy to get around. Golf cart was a fun extra and we used it to drive to beach and dinner at Bruno’s pizza. Definitely eat at Bruno’s when you stay, it was fabulous. Location was perfect with easy drive to seaside and rosemary beach. Beach was not as packed as other places we have stayed in the area. Unfortunately, the creek next to us broke through to the ocean and it made the water quite ugly. We were able to walk to clearer water to get in and others were swimming in the dark water, so I guess it was safe, but not pretty. Overall this was a great pick for our trip and would definitely stay again in the future.

Not to mention the beautiful boardwalks to the beach and the beach itself of course. The Condo is gorgeous, comfy, and quiet! The host is incredibly responsive and helpful!

DETAILS BEYOND - Looking further is a waste of time!

Cheri went so above and beyond for us to stay in her amazing space. First let me say its outrageously gorgeous, exquisitely decorated with a view that is beyond tranquil. Morning walks to the beach are steps from your front door. As grandparents exhausted from summer fun with our grandson we desperately needed time to relax and unwind. Golf cart, bikes, chairs, beach towels, coffee, tea, personal care and cleaning supplies - I cant think of anything missing from this condo, but if i could Cheri would have provided in a snap. The nightlights are located exactly where they need to be so as you walk to the fridge late night to grab a snack - your never walking on an unlit space, OH and auto sensor! Thank you Cheri I'm beyond grateful for your attention to detail to make our much needed break a true experience. Ron & Sydel
