We went to attend the Shrimp Festival and wanted to be within walking distance of event. This place was perfect for that. The unit was very fresh and everything was very intentional. It is a small unit but the updates were very well done.

Oceanfront/Walking distance to many places!

Wonderful oceanfront view! (top floor (8th)). Plenty of beach space as well. Enjoyed cup of coffee each morning on the balcony. Beautifully decorated in beach theme and parking was simple/no problems. Never had to wait on elevators; HUGE bonus!

Stormy days can be beautiful days!!

We loved our stay! We had an amazing anniversary/birthday trip and even tho the trip was filled with storms and tornado warnings, I couldn't have been happier. I sat on the deck and watched the storms roll in and truly felt a peaceful joy that I haven't had in a while. The following days were filled with good food, escape rooms and beach days. Hands down, my favorite trip and I've been EVERYWHERE. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Very good location, very hard beds

Overall, we enjoyed our stay. This condo is super cute, decorated very nice, great location! We only had one issue, but it was a pretty big one. The beds are crazy hard. So much so that they reminded me of the fake store displays for bedding. After a long day of traveling, you just want a comfy place to land, unfortunately, this wasn’t it. (Even our teenager complained about how hard they were.) Update those beds and we’ll happily book again! It was otherwise great!

Clean

The unit was clean. The only issue we had was upon checking in the toilet handle in the master bathroom broke. In all the number given and someone told me that they would be out the next day, unfortunately no one showed up the entire trip! Had to keep the top off the tank to be able to flush the toilet!

Nice place to stay, great location.

We enjoyed our stay. The condo was very cute and quaint and well decorated. We loved that we had a view of the water and enjoyed time on the balcony. I would say this comfortably fits four. Great location and well decorated with charm. I only gave 4 stars for the following reasons: - This is a big destination for families with little kids who want to go to the beach. I was hoping they would provide beach towels, beach chairs and beach toys. We ended up buying them but it was a pain hauling beach toys in our luggage and taking unnecessary space. Also paying 45 dollars a day for beach chairs is unnecessary and expensive. - We were not aware of parking fee for a rental care until we found a ticket on our rental car. I wish this was shared with us upfront. - When asking for extra towels, we were told there was a 25 dollar fee to deliver towels. I found this frustrating as we payed hundreds of dollars in cleaning/ service fees which I presumed would be covered under that. Overall we enjoyed our stay and it was a wonderful location and environment. For the cost, I was hoping for more amenities regarding beach equipment.
