This place was so great and our family loved all the decorations. Beach was a short 8 minute walk across the lake. Good location and easy access in and out. Would 100% recommend. The property manager was a breeze to deal with and responded to all my questions very fast!

I wanted to move in!

Fabulous location close to my favorite beach (O'Steen Beach Access). It was spacious and well-stocked. The theming and decorating was so fun. Even the walk to the beach was exciting and enjoyable. I had a question and the owner went above and beyond to answer it. Would love to stay again.

Fun family get together.

Definitely feel the beach vibes in this condo. Our granddaughter absolutely loved the décor. It took us more than 5 minutes to walk to the beach but we enjoyed the turtles while walking over the bridge. Convenient location for restaurants and shopping.

Spring Break

Great place with plenty of room for the family. Walked to beach easily, Pancakery, sandwich shop, and ice cream shop. Grocery store right across the street. Washer and dryer were helpful with all the beach mess. Kitchen fully supplied of appliances. Would stay here again. Comfy beds.

Very accommodating!

Lynda helped us at the last second after arriving in Florida and finding out our reservation at another condo was cancelled a hour earlier. We were in town for a wedding and had every minute of our trip booked with pre planned wedding stuff. We were able to book this condo and it was great! Short walk to the beach, which was a private area and Pool just a few feet away from front door. We had to cut our trip short due to hurricane Ida heading straight for our home in New Orleans, but will definitely try and book this condo for our next trip to Florida. Thanks again, Lynda.

Everything was seamless, lots of amenities, and we felt as though we could live there permanently. The only correction for the future is there is a ten minute walk to the beach…. Not 5.
