A hidden gem that is within a short walk to Please Pier! The properties under this owner never disappoint, down to the smallest details. The units were impeccably decorated and clean. The pool gets center stage and the perfect depth for both novice and experienced swimmers. The high-end amenities and comfortable furnishings tops it off. Hidden Paradise is the ideal vacation destination spot. Bravo to the owners!
