Perfect place to stay with a great view of the ocean from the balcony. Tim was extremely helpful throughout the trip and highly recommend this place to anyone! We had a storm come thru and had to leave a few days early due to coastal floods but Tim offered a refund without having to be asked which speaks volumes about how he treats his guests. We will definitely return in the future.
The condo was perfect for what we needed and the beach is very clean and beautiful. We loved being close to the carnival (expensive but a great time) and there are plenty of nearby restaurants and shops.

Glad y’all had a great stay and many thanks for the kind review!
We have stayed here a few times in the past. My husband summarized it best, this place feels comfortable, like as if we were home. We enjoy staying here and Tim is always great to work with. The beach access is currently closed due to the erosion, but that did not stop my son from finding a play area and an open access location was not that far of a walk. Also, in October make sure to go to the pier’s pumpkin patch. We look forward to next year!

So glad y’all enjoyed your stay and many thanks for the kind review! -Tim
The location of this property is great! Your steps from the beach. The condo itself is nice. The balcony is nice but the carpet is old and needs to be changed. The kitchen is really small, cramped and only two people at time can be in there. You do need to bring your own linen’s, towel, chairs and pot holders because the kitchen did not have them. All in all this place was dog & kid friendly and a good location to stay.
The condo is just as the photos showed. It is very clean and perfect for a small family to enjoy the beach. The property manager did a great job communicating and we were well prepared for our stay! Our 2 doodles loved people watching on the ocean side balcony. We will return soon!
