James, glad you enjoyed your time at The Sunny Spot. Thanks for the heads up on the downstairs TV. I’ll take care of it when I am down in a few days. Ellen
We really enjoyed our stay. Condo felt cared for and location was great balance of quiet with beach access and bird and turtle sanctuary yet with access to tennis and pool and nice areas to walk.

We had an incredible stay. Comfortable, quiet place for a family. Very responsive owner and we had everything we needed to cook for ourselves during travel. Luxury to be so close to the beach, the state park and local points of interest. Reasonably priced and easy to access.
We highly recommend a stay.
