I love this property/unit

This is my third or fourth time staying at Island Royale, and I really like it. Super clean and well-maintained public areas, Mr. Joe the security fella, and location on the beach are ideal. This unit is my favorite to date - keypad on the door, excellently appointed decor, comfy beds, and chaise lounges on the balcony all combined for a lovely stay. Will definitely book here again.

Perfect Family Vacation

Lively stay with beautiful weather. The ocean was calm, the beach was white powder sand, and the walk between the condo and the beach was very short! It’s close to lots of restaurants. The rooms had black out curtains and a box fan for white noise. Furniture was comfy and we appreciated the luggage carts in the lobby. Will definitely come back!
