The condo was perfect for what we needed and the beach is very clean and beautiful. We loved being close to the carnival (expensive but a great time) and there are plenty of nearby restaurants and shops.

Perfect place to stay with a great view of the ocean from the balcony. Tim was extremely helpful throughout the trip and highly recommend this place to anyone! We had a storm come thru and had to leave a few days early due to coastal floods but Tim offered a refund without having to be asked which speaks volumes about how he treats his guests. We will definitely return in the future.

We have stayed here a few times in the past. My husband summarized it best, this place feels comfortable, like as if we were home. We enjoy staying here and Tim is always great to work with. The beach access is currently closed due to the erosion, but that did not stop my son from finding a play area and an open access location was not that far of a walk. Also, in October make sure to go to the pier’s pumpkin patch. We look forward to next year!
