Nice place

It’s nice. Very comfy. Had two coffee makers but neither one worked so bring your coffee pot. It was clean. Blender was great for making frozen drinks. If would be great if the patio chairs were taller so you can have an unobstructed view of the beach over the banister. The patio chairs are too short and so we didn’t sit out on the patio at all.

Much better than the pictures

We rented this condo as a last resort when our other condo In Pensacola got hurricane damage and canceled on us the day the before we were supposed to arrive. To be honest, I didn’t like the photos of this unit and thought this was going to be an old, dirty place, but at the last minute, we had no alternative. I was pleasantly surprised! The place has been updated with all new furniture and the walls are painted a lighter more airy color. I was also surprised at how much better the view was than the picture showed. It was extremely clean and comfortable. The master bed was a bit too firm for me, but still good for people who like firm beds. The location of this property is perfect for a couple wanting to get away and have a quite trip. We walked just a little bit past the complex and was surrounded by nothing on the beach. It was everything I needed to regroup after a crazy covid year so far. The only downside in the condo was access to a washer and dryer. I’m used to getting places where they are inside the units and I wasn’t expecting to use a laundry room. But other than that, it was really a great place on a very beautiful beach. I will come here again.
