We stayed here for a beach trip, and it was exactly what we needed. The space was clean, cozy, and just a short walk to the water. It felt peaceful from the moment we arrived. The location made it easy to enjoy both the beach and nearby island spots.

Very comfortable & extremely clean!
For a small space it was actually very comfortable & extremely clean!
Very clean and well maintained. We also loved the thought that went into small things in this condo such as the extra hooks located on the patio and throughout the condo for hanging beach items and beach towels.
The pool was located across a short sidewalk from the main dumpsters for the condos so the smell was so bad one night when we arrived at the pool we could not tolerate it to swim.

Colony Inn is a true hidden gem
Colony Inn is a true hidden gem, gives chill retro vibes, very relaxing, walkable to the beach, and lovely peaceful setting. We were able to walk to a few very good restaurants nearby as well. Host was responsive, but not able to turn off the cool jazz night music until the next day because we requested it after the office had closed for the day. So be sure to make all requests during their scheduled office hours. Beach was perfect for shelling!
Our stay at The Colony Inn was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. The staff went above and beyond with their kindness and hospitality, making us feel truly welcome the entire time.The beach chairs and umbrella they provided were such a great touch and made our beach days effortless and relaxing. The location couldn’t have been better—just a quick, easy walk to the beach, with convenient access to shopping and fantastic restaurants in the other direction.We had so much fun shelling and found some truly gorgeous treasures! The unit itself was spotless, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed for a special mother/daughter getaway.The pool was clean and refreshing, and the landscaping around the property was just as beautiful and well cared for.It was incredibly hard to leave!!
