The condo was very spacious, great location and wonderful amenities. The kitchen had everything you needed, from spatulas to croc pots! Many beach items as well; buckets and shovels, chairs and umbrellas, and even a beach wagon that was very handy! The electric had went out in the whole complex and owners were quick to let us know and make sure everything was okay. We will definitely be returning guests!!
Beautiful sunset from our balcony

Perfect Condo for July 4th

The condo was perfect for the family. Love the bedroom with 2 bunks, and all of the kitchen accessories were everything we needed. The best part was watching the 4th of July fireworks from the balcony on the beach. Thank ypu!!
