Perfect Beach Getaway Spot.

Booked this for a weekend and had a lovely time. There was an issue with the original unit I booked and the host went out her way to get us into a different unit and to make sure we were happy. The unit was cute and clean and just what we wanted with direct access to the beach. Definitely will be back.

Small and nothing fancy yet just perfect. We really utilized the patio and being able to walk right out on the sand to the beach is perfect. Marking this as a favorite for the future

Beautiful View

Nice, relaxing and the ocean view from the unit is awesome! Step right out the back door and our feet were in the sand. The unit was cute, cozy and decorated in a super cute beachy style. Overall enjoyed the stay and was a bonus that my fur babies were able to be with us. My only suggestions would be a deep clean and perhaps some updates to the unit.

Last Minute Ocean Getaway

Had a last minute opening of days off and decided last minute to get out of Chicago and head to warm weather and water with my 13 year old son. Wow right on the beach and dog friendly so we were able to bring our puppy. We were able toCheck in early in morning instead of afternoon after talking to Ms Candy. Just a 25 tip requested for the cleaning crew to check in at 7am instead of 4pm basically got us an extra day. We were surf fishing a couple hundred yards from back door of condo on beautiful white sands beach. My son wanted to eat down the road at Stubys every time we went past because the calamari was so good. Pontoon Boat rental at The Weekend was great price and dog friendly as well to fish the flats the bridges and go to crab island sand bar area was a big party atmosphere. Cute clean little first floor 1 bed condo with kitchen and pull out couch that he slept on. Perfect for a getaway for a couple people with great location. Very quiet at night and safe. Very enjoyable get away to recharge. Just what we were hoping for. The area is very dog friendly and allowed at restaurants with outdoor seating, but unfortunately not on the beach itself per FL ordinances. Just wish we had a couple more days!

Great for Seniors

Loved the location of this property! No steps inside or outside so it was perfect for senior citizens. Bedroom sliding door opens right onto the sand. Very clean and accomodating for 2 people plus one small pet. We will be back!

October Get away

We were so pleased with our accommodations. The location was perfect and so quiet. Every morning we walked to the beach, about 150 feet, to watch the sunrise. Every evening we sat on the beach and watched the sunset. It was restful and lovely, just what we wanted. It’s not fancy, but very clean. The only suggestion, bring your own toilet paper if your stay is longer than 3 days. A small price for for an excellent experience.

I love this place it’s so close to the beach, just open your back patio door and you right there . This is our 2nd time staying there and not our last. The only thing I don’t like is that it doesn’t have a shower but everything else is perfect.

Convient Beach Access

We've never stayed ground level before, but we ended up loving how easy it was to access the beach. The condo is quaint, nothing fancy but was perfect for our family of 3. We were able to check in early which was great for my wife who was working remotely. Having complimentary beach chairs & an umbrella was great. The condo could use a good deep clean: ie the shower head & shampoo the couch but overall it was a pleasant experience & we even got to bring our dog.

If you are looking for the perfect place for a couples getaway, this is the place. Although not as modern and upscale as it’s neighbors, the location and literal steps to the beach are what makes this condo perfect!! I would highly recommend. You won’t be disappointed.

Excellent Location

Can not beat the location and beach access. The picture may be a little outdated as there is now a sand dune that blocks the water view in the cover photo. The common patio is great if neighbors are good but that can be expected. Overall is a good place to stay.

Great little place!

Stay was wonderful and the condo was everything I expected and more. While it is not brand new with everything updated, it is very clean and in good condition. It is VERY nice being able to park near the door and not to have to deal with stairs or an elevators like other large places. It is located in a good spot and I would highly suggest Stewby's Seafood Shanty and Hightide Seafood both of which are less than 2 minutes from the condo. Thanks for having us!
