We had a wonderful stay at this Florida beach condo. It was spacious, very clean and beautifully designed. The condo was fully stocked with everything we needed, which made our stay so comfortable and convenient. The beds were extremely comfortable, and we all slept great. The view from the balcony was absolutely beautiful and one of our favorite parts of the stay. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommended it!

This property was exceptional in every aspect! Very clean, perfect location for beach AND pool view. Watched dolphins in the morning and beautiful sunsets in the evening and enjoyed the pool and beach in between. Hosts Valerie and Reece have gone above and beyond with the extra beach towels, chairs, canopy, fishing poles, floats, and toys for the kiddos - along with staples (and more) in the kitchen and baths. Thank you for an absolutely wonderful birthday/retirement celebration getaway! I have Absolutely no complaints - and not even a suggestion to better this VRBO. It was perfect!

The condo was great for our family very spacious and comfortable. Location was great. Only down side was the lack of beach chairs. There were 3 adult size and 2 child size camp chairs. Not ideal for the beach or comfort or for a family with teens. Other than that everything was great!

Hi Kara, Thank you for letting me know about the beach chairs I try to keep up with supplying 6-8 chairs, however, they frequently get damaged, rusted or thrown away. I will certainly replenish. Glad you had a great week. Valerie

We enjoyed the stay and ease of getting to places. We did run out of toilet paper and paper towels and had to make a trip to buy some. Really appreciated having a washer and dryer for the convenience!!We were unsure if we could go in either pool or hot tub??

I am so glad you and your guests enjoyed yourself. We typically only provide a starter pack of toilet paper, paper towels and some other necessity items to hold you over till you get to the store. Each Sandcastle building is it's separate entity so we cannot share the pool and spa. Hope to host you again in the future. Valerie
