Great Stay on the Island

My wife and I celebrated our 39th wedding anniversary. Fantastic place. Great pool and lazy river. The room has a great view and we would stay there again. We even got a little surprise from the owners. They were great hosts. Pam & Denny

Great condo

This is the 2nd time we stayed in this condo. The view from the balcony is gorgeous and the condo is well stocked. The hosts are very gracious and easy to reach. Definitely going back next year. We were there on our honeymoon and they left us a card, roses and a bottle of champagne. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay.

Excellent beach vacation!!

This property was absolutely perfect for our family beach vacation. The condo was perfectly equipped with everything we needed and then some! The pools and lazy river were a huge hit with our kiddos. There was easy access to the beach from the property. Our view from the 7th floor was breathtaking. The owners checked in on us and gave some great recommendations along with a special sweet treat for the kiddos! 5 stars all around!

Ain't scared of no tropical storm

Didn't think it would turn into hurricane Beryl, but rode it out with my five year old grandson. Felt safe and secure during storm and grandson slept right through. We did get to enjoy the amenities the day before and can't wait for next trip back. Owners were great and more than accomodating.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hosts were great and quick to respond to questions. Condo was clean and well-appointed. Walking access to the beach without having to cross Seawall Blvd was great! Floating the lazy river every evening was the perfect way to unwind, and the massive pool was lovely as well. The hot tubs are large so it wasn’t awkward being in there with strangers. We hope to return!

Immaculate condo, location and view were perfect, well appointed with everything we needed and more, plus the owners were available for questions should any arise. I would not hesitate to recommend this condo. You could do as little as you want in this area or as much as your heart desires.

Great location if as a smart grandparent you know your grandchildren will ultimately prefer the pool over the beach. Plenty of shallow water swimming pool area on property.Safe, easy access to beach for sunrise/sunset walks before it gets too hot for the little ones. Seahorse grill walking distance (across busy street) offer reasonably priced breakfast, lunch and dinner for all ages and is actually pretty good made to order comfort food.
