We had an amazing time at this condo. The view was incredible, it felt like you were so close to the water and the sunsets were breathtaking. Tim & Pam provided everything we needed for an awesome time. We would definitely stay here again!

So glad you enjoyed your stay! Hope to host you again soon.
This place was exactly what we were looking for! We bought my older parents, plus young kids and it was perfect. The beach was SO wonderful and incredibly easy to access. We did not utilize the pool, but it was very clean and looked nice. The owners had great communication with us, and were very accommodating as our stay was during some construction going on. We would definitely recommend and will be back if visiting the area in the future.
This condo was perfect! The master bedroom had balcony access with gorgeous views! The bathrooms were large, the kitchen was spacious! If we are ever back in the area, this will be a first choice!
We had a wonderful stay! Condo was perfectly ocean front, with super easy beach access, and we loved sitting on the balcony each morning and night enjoying the view. Beds were comfortable and beach chairs and towels being provided were a huge bonus. We definitely plan to book this condo again!
The condo was perfect for our family's trip to the beach. Our family of five (including an infant) and Grandma and Grandpa had plenty of room. The kitchen had everything we needed and the beach toys, chairs, etc. were great!

Thanks for the kind words Briana. We hope to host you again in the future!!
This property was perfect for a relaxing beach stay. The beach and pool accesses are gated and the grounds are quite nice with fresh new landscaping. We walked across the street for lunch and dinner. The unit was very clean and well stocked. Cute little community.
Our party of four adults and two children really enjoyed our stay. The condo has an amazing view and made sitting on the balcony one of our favorite things to do. The beach, grounds and pool were fabulous. Our hosts were quick to reply to any questions or concerns.
The unit was in a great location with excellent views. The unit was very clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay here again!
