Absolutely perfect property. Beautiful, updated, clean and an excellent location. We were able to paddle board off the dock and saw so many dolphins and manatees during our week. And an easy 5 minute walk to a great section of beach that was less crowded even during a busy spring break week. Well stocked and we had a fabulous, relaxing week here. We will definitely stay again.
