We enjoyed our trip and this beautiful unit. We stayed in another unit at this same condo 5 years ago for our honeymoon. It holds a special place in our hearts. The short walk to the beach is so convenient and the courtyard is beautiful. Great view of the beach from the downstairs balcony.

All about location

I came with my younger kids for spring break. We were very happy with this place and the location is perfect! All the crowds and rowdy spring breakers were a lot further down the beach. It wasn’t busy and the beach wasn’t crowded. The association is gated so that gave me peace of mind for safety. It might not be beach front but you can see the ocean from the balcony. Excellent commutation from property managers. We would definitely stay here again!
