Wonderful stay

Condo is beautiful and convenient. The condo is beautifully curated with a beach theme without being kitschy. The kitchen had all the amenities and details needed to cook meals for a crowd. Beds and linens are comfortable and pretty. The overall property is well-maintained with very convenient access to the beach. We enjoyed walking to shops and restaurants without need to move the car on most days. One note: If you are staying soon, the Tennis/pickleball courts are under construction right now but hopefully they will be updated and available soon. Would absolutely stay again!

A Wonderful Stay!

Our rental condo was great…well stocked and in a beautiful location. Our hosts were super helpful, especially when the over-the-range microwave decided it had had enough. A temporary counter microwave was in place within 3 hours, which was awesome. We’ll definitely stay again if we venture back to SPI!
