The condo was as advertised and matched the listing. The pros were The location was great, we saw manatees and dolphins every day. Walking distance to beach and condo very well stocked. The cons for me was the beds were way too hard, and the dryer needs to get updated as it ruined a few pieces of clothing with either grease or burnt marks. Also, the blinds didnt really open or close, but could be if you manually pushed them open and closed.Having said all of this, we would book this condo again in the future. It was a great experience and the owner was really very responsive. I would highly recommend anyone looking to book in this area to consider this condo.

Home away from home

This was our second year in a row staying at this property and it won't be our last. Plenty of space for a family of four which includes two girls, a 10 year old and thirteen year old. The area is laid back and quiet, the beach is just a three minute walk away. Two full baths, comfortable beds and an outstanding view from the balcony.
