Quick Weekend Getaway

The condo was cute, clean and perfect for a couple looking for a quiet weekend (or longer) get away. The location was away from the busy streets of Port A but close enough to get there with a walk or golf cart ride. The back patio views were amazing and it was fun to watch the boats coming and going.

Nice condo… maybe not quite as cute on the interior as I expected, but my husband and I still enjoyed it. My request for an early check in was honored. It was very clean, instructions were clear, and we had our own covered parking place. Great view of the channel from the huge deck. We could see dolphins playing in the water!! The community pool is large and a relaxing experience. The location of the condo is perfect for getting quickly to popular restaurants and to the beach. We would definitely stay here again.
