Thank you so much for visiting over Labor Day weekend, Carol! Our condo is at Silver Sands, a gulfcoast property. We are directly on the beach, Gulf side, but our condo does not have direct oceanview. Our view is a diagonal across the pool to the ocean. We have a large screened lanai, and there are some palm trees, but we very much have a pretty view, and our photos have always been accurate. Thank you again for staying at our condo!

This was the most peaceful, relaxing beach trip we have ever experienced. We spent most of our time soaking up the sun, salt water and sunsets with sand between our toes. The condo felt like home, with everything we needed (we flew in with a backpack and lacked nothing), it was clean and comfortable. Our first morning we received the sweetest surprise at the door for breakfast, very thoughtful host, who seems to want to make your stay as best as it can be!We loved EVERYTHING and are already talking about making this a yearly event

Lovely, clean, well-decorated condo with shaded porch overlooking the community pool. We enjoyed reading there, with the beach visible in the distance. Kitchen had everything we needed, including a waffle maker we had fun with. Beach access was super convenient and the chairs provided made it perfect. What truly made the trip though was Heidi’s care and comfort put into every detail. Highly recommend!

From start to finish, the experience was seamless and relaxing.The location is truly unbeatable, as access to the beach is incredibly quick and easy. It was so convenient for heading out to the sand whenever we felt like it.
