The hosts were easy to communicate with - prompt and courteous. The condo is spacious and generally well-kept. We were disappointed to find that it’s not a 3 minute walk from the beach. The condo is at the back of the development. Using my parking location in front of the condo, Google Maps said that it was a six minute walk to Captain Dave’s, the restaurant next to the beach access. That was pretty true for us with minimal beach gear and no small children to wrangle. If the distance is important to you, consider another condo. Otherwise we would recommend staying here.

The place was clean and had everything you need to enjoy the area. There were sand toys and footballs for entertainment as well as WiFi tv. Beach chairs to carry down to the water and plenty of towels. The pool was amazing and staff was extremely friendly. We will be returning in the future for sure

This is an upstairs unit. A/C worked GREAT! The location was very convenient. It is located towards the back of the complex, but right across from the pool, and is only a short walk to the beach access. Having 2 bathrooms with teenage girls was wonderful. The large shower in the master was nice, but the doors did want to come off the tracks a few times, so just be gentle. The decor was very cute and the living room was quite comfortable to enjoy some relaxation in the A/C. There were some fix-ups that needed to be done, but being new to VRBO, I am sure they will improve over time. The kitchen had several dishes but quite empty in the fact that there were no spices or grilling utensils. Those would be a nice add-on. Having a washer and dryer really was a nice draw to this place, as we were packing light. However, the dryer did not work well at all. It heated up fine but would not dry clothes. It took several hours with back to back attempts to dry the smallest of clothes. Staying there for a week, we needed to wash the towels and washcloths, plus beach towels so I made a couple of trips to the laundromat before everyone was up and around so we could have fresh linens. Check-in was easy. We did not need to contact anyone during our stay. I didn't feel that these items were a huge issue, just inconvenience. I would recommend staying here. The complex is family friendly and pretty quiet.

We booked our stay for a week and loved it! The condo came with beach items like chairs and wagon which was very nice! Had an in unit washer and dryer which was super nice to have access to! Messaged the host a couple of times and responses were very timely! Would definitely stay again.
