This condo has an excellent location on the beach. Also being ground level was really handy to come and go. As well as it’s close to the pool. We really enjoyed staying here. And appreciate how well stocked it is. There are nice boogie boards, chairs and umbrellas. As well as snorkeling gear and cooler. We also appreciate the bathroom having small bags of a hair tie, q-tips, flosser stick and makeup remover pads.

Really wonderful unit and location in the building. Our daughter loved just being able to run out the patio doors and race around on the grass. The extras like the beach chairs, umbrellas and cooler made it super easy for us to go enjoy other areas of the island as well. Would gladly stay here again in the future.
