Fantastic view

Our party of four adults and two children really enjoyed our stay. The condo has an amazing view and made sitting on the balcony one of our favorite things to do. The beach, grounds and pool were fabulous. Our hosts were quick to reply to any questions or concerns.

Beach getaway

The condo was perfect for our family's trip to the beach. Our family of five (including an infant) and Grandma and Grandpa had plenty of room. The kitchen had everything we needed and the beach toys, chairs, etc. were great!

Nice Condo

This is such a nice condo! You have everything available to you that you would need from beach chairs and towels, just about anything you would need to cook your meals except for the food, only thing i didnt like was the dryer but its better than having to use a coin one. If you have any problems at all Tim and Pam was quick to respond and would help with any questions. I 100% recommend staying in this condo.

Perfect location.

We enjoyed our vacation at this on the beach first level condo. The reserved parking was right next to the elevator. Condo was situated right across from restaurant/bar, as well as boat rentals. Plenty to do near by and the beach and sunsets were superb.

Great location

The location - right on the beach - and view from the balcony were the best parts of the place. There was some construction going on nearby, so there was some noise from that, but overall it was a great location and very clean condo.

Family Time at the Beach

First time trip to the area but won’t be the last. Condo was well stocked and you could tell it was someone’s home and not just a rental. Perfect getaway and the hosts could not have been more accommodating. My husband and I will definitely stay here again if our travels bring us back to the area. The only negative is beyond their control but if you have two cars in your party, parking is a challenge.

Great stay and amazing views!

The property is an excellent location, beautiful beach and pool area. All conveniences needed were in the unit including spices and necessary items needed for a weeks stay! Directly across the street from Caddys, a restaurant on the intercoastal- great for a quick bite and drinks while watching the boats dock. The hosts were amazing and very accomodating due to circumstances with the hurricane- we were also allowed to check in early:-)

Family Beach Vacation

Tim & Pam’s condo was the perfect place for our family! The pictures are exactly what you can expect. The washer and dryer in the unit was a huge plus for us. The view was amazing, the pool and beach both close. We traveled with our 3 kids so for us, the beach closet with chairs, umbrella, toys, cooler, etc. was fantastic! Thank you for sharing your place with us. We will be back.

Amazing views and perfect location

This unit was perfect for 4 friends attending a near-by yoga conference. Using the elevator and carts to bring our belongings to the unit (which is so close by) was easy. And having a full kitchen to prepare meals was such a benefit. Thank you for a lovely place at a reasonable pice.

Amazing Vacation

We had an amazing time. We stayed in this unit with the previous owner. This owner was very much on top of communication with us. They sent the check-in information early enough to ease my mind. The unit was very clean and easy to get to. There is plenty of towels, beach towels and beach toys/ chairs.
