My husband and I were in town to watch our daughter’s softball team compete in a spring break tournament. The location was very convenient to restaurants and shopping. The condo was clean and spacious. The best part was the view from the balcony!

Best Getaway!

Lovely, well-kept condo and nicely-appointed with everything we needed. Beautiful views of the ocean, the sandy beach, and crashing waves were mesmerizing and soothing, and all right from the porch! My daughter and I explored, relaxed, walked the beach, and searched for shells. Checking in was a breeze. We were given information on everything imaginable To make our stay enjoyable and trouble-free. Thank you!

Perfect Spot

Great location and great condo right on the water and beach - got to see so much wildlife. Pool, hot tub, and game room very nice!!! We’ll be back. Forewarning - don’t rent from Ike’s Beach Rentals for multiple days and definitely don’t build in a daily tip - first day great service and placement and then steadily worse with horrible customer service.

Lovely condo for long weekend

VERY easy check in/access process-probably the easiest we’ve had in all of our GS trips over the years. Great amenities, condos are reasonably soundproof, no late music or parties. Moreover than other places we have stayed the condos (building as well as living space) were very well kept. Great communication leading up to the trip by the property managers. A small but very important thing-there appeared to be adequate parking for all of the units so you never had to circle and fight for a spot. We hope to book again in the future!

As advertised

The unit was very nice, exactly as pictures. Has fully furnished modern kitchen, two large bedrooms with plenty of storage area. The furniture was comfortable and the TV was good with Direct TV. Both the living room and bedroom opened on to the balcony. The unit is right on the beach and has a nice view. The pool, which we didnt use was not very large and the indoor section was closed during our stay.

Retirement getaway

I wanted to celebrate my retirement with 2 weeks at the beach to have plenty of time to enjoy the beach and to do activities in the area. We had a great vacation. The condo fit our needs for the two weeks. We were traveling with our disabled daughter and were especially glad to have the shower wands. It makes bathing her so much easier. Our only disappointment was that the pool was too cold to swim in. The rental agent was very helpful whenever we had a question.
