We would definitely stay there again and recommend this place to others!

We enjoyed our vacation at this condo more than any other in previous vacations! Heidi is so amazing with communication and so thoughtful in making us feel like family. The condo was spot on with being clean, everything we needed in the kitchen, bathroom supplies, items for the beach and special surprise delivery of goodies! There was a little hiccup with the internet and she was quick to help resolve the issue. We will definitely be back and spread the word to our family to rent from her! Thank you for making our vacation easier and less hectic with bringing too much stuff.

Great Stay!
First time to gulf side of Florida and not the last! Water so much calmer than Atlantic side for young family to play in. Dolphins/Manatees swimming by daily. Very memorable.
In regards to the condo, very clean, was able to sleep family of 4 pretty easy. View of Gulf hard to beat. Pool very clean and not busy.
Great stay and don't think you'll regret booking.

Cozy waterfront view with easy access
This place had a spectacular view of the ocean and poolside with access right in the backyard. The beach location is a quiet stretch of sand with limited beachgoers and seagulls. It has a fully stocked bathroom and kitchen. Rafts, umbrellas, and beach toys were also provided so you can pack light. The only negative was the parking lot size and the fact that there isn't an elevator so baggage had to be dragged upstairs. Otherwise its a great place for either a couple or a family vacay. The hostess is very hospitable and accomadating.
