Amazing location and best Hosts!

This property was not only conveniently located right on oceanfront. They have a plethora of snacks and coffee when you arrive. Their hospitality is some of the best I’ve witnessed. Patt and Gerry are some of the best people that I’ve ever had the pleasure of renting from!! You won’t regret your stay!

Great Relaxing Time

The condo is in a really great location within walking distance from most everything. We did notice a bit of a musty smell (maybe just needs a dehumidifier or something) but other than that it was super clean and was actually stocked with most all the necessities. The water pressure in the shower was superb and loved having a tv in both rooms. It was great to have the beach umbrella and chairs to use out by the ocean which was just steps away. The pool was also wonderful and clean. Overall, this was a really nice place and we would highly recommend it. Thanks for a great stay!

My husband and I had a great time during our stay here. We had a little hiccup with our flight to Florida being cancelled and changed to the next day. Pat and Gerry were great and understanding with our late check in. They also were very responsive when we had a few little things happen during our stay there. The condo was great for the two of us, close to the beach and we enjoyed having on site heated pool. We will definitely be back!

Splendid paradise location, and kindness overflowing!

I cannot say enough about this experience we’ve had at Friendly Native Condos! Location- top notch! So many options with in 5 minute walking. Quiet hours- amazing! Hosts- Amazing and quick responses! They are so kind! They provided amazing suggestions to eating out and convenient locations to grab things! Arrival- we had snacks, complementary drinks, anything you could think of, this unit has it. Things on hand- We didn’t have to worry about beach chairs, beach towels, we had a convenient wagon that helped us get everything to the short three minute walk to the beach! There’s so many amazing things I could say about this unit! We most certainly will be back! Thank you Pat and Gerry for sharing your space with us! 10/10 ⭐️ rating!

Great location

The location was amazing, right next to the beach. Pool area is nice, good restaurants in the area. Communication with the host was challenging to navigate the first night when we needed some support, but I'm sure he will be more gracious in the future. Good parking with the electronic permit and only two steps to get up to the apartment from the sidewalk. There was also a bar in the shower for safety which was appreciated. Comfortable main bed.

Short get away

The check in process was super easy. When we got there, the condo was super clean. We had a few questions and the turn around time was extremely prompt. There was an evacuation due to the hurricane and Pat and Gerry came personally to our place and discussed all options with us. The owners treated us like family. We were only steps to the beach. We can't wait to come back. You can't go wrong with this place. It was just perfect! Thanks again for everything Pat and Gerry!

Let's go to the beach!

We loved our week in this cozy condo. Gerry and Pat responded quickly to our questions. The kitchen has everything you need. The fridge had condiments and a few other items that were a nice touch until we were able to shop. We enjoyed the lush tropical patio. It was so nice to sit outside with our morning coffee, breakfast and dinner. The bathroom is stocked with everything you need including sunscreen. We spent most days at the beach which is a short walk away. Then spent time at the pool. Most evenings we would take a walk back to the beach to watch the sunset. There are plenty of bar/ restaurants within walking distance. So load up the beach wagon with some chairs, towels, sand toys, cooler and an umbrella and have some fun in the sun.
