Beautiful property in a very quiet part of the island. Loved sitting on the deck at night listening to the waves crashing on the beach. Having 2 small kids, it was awesome having the beach right there making a quick back and forth trip. My only complaint was the mattresses were way too firm, but other than that, I would absolutely stay here again

About the host

Hosted by Mark Blondell

Host profile image
My husband and I bought our beach house after my first son was born, we have enjoyed 20 years of entertaining many family and friends. We have also hosted many Easter egg hunts for the entire community here at Point Emerald Villas. We bought here due to it being the best part of the beach on the ENTIRE island. We love going to the island and as soon as we cross the bridge feel like we are in a different world--relaxed and care free.

Why they chose this property

Something for all ages - Pools, Tennis, Beach, Grills, Basketball or just chill in the condo where every room has flat panel TVs.
