Ms Wanda was wonderful to work with. My only complaint is not enough towels, beds were not comfortable, and condo could have used a better cleaning especially for how much u are being charged. Sheets had sand in them and the condo was just wiped down and not fully cleaned. Overall great location for families and close to amenities.

Vacation

Me and my family had a wonderful vacation here, the condo had everything we need and more. The location was ideal for being able to go play golf or go fishing or even pick up take out orders we were close to everything. Being on the second floor facing the ocean was also a huge plus we could watch the beach as the kids took a nap or just sit on the balcony and have a drink and people watch. I would definitely be interested in booking this condo again.
