We love staying at Nautical Watch and the low key atmosphere. From booking to leaving the condo everything was a breeze. Kitchen and bath were both well appointed with everything that we needed for a good rest. Communication with host was fabulous and this is one of the better units we’ve stayed at. Just remember to pack lightly the unit is upstairs. Thank you for sharing your home away from home with us. Hope to be back soon and would not hesitate to rent this unit again.

What a cozy, lovely condo! You have a view of the pool and you can also get a peek of the turquoise ocean in the distance. Kitchen was well-stocked, beds were comfortable, shower was amazing, couch and giant tv were perfect for lounging after a day in the sun. Open living and kitchen area perfect for socializing. Back deck was spacious and a great place to relax. Easy in, easy out—no long list of chores for checkout! We’ll be back!

I throughly enjoyed my stay. The condo description matched perfectly to what I was expecting. The king bed was a dream and the kitchen was fully stocked with most of your everyday needs, even providing sample coffees. I especially enjoyed the private beach access. The host was warm & welcoming and available if any questions came up. I highly recommend this unit and will definitely recommend it to my family & friends!

Relaxing

My daughter and I spent 4 relaxing days on the beach. Mekayla was super quick to answer back if i had a question and the check in and out process was flawless. My daughter loved the loft area. It was like she had her own little apartment to herself. Super cute condo and just a minute or two walk to the beach! We will for sure be staying again in the future!

Perfect getaway on the beach

The condo was exactly as described. Clean and ready to unpack and begin the vacation. Location was perfect, away from the busy areas of Pier Park but close enough to drive and enjoy all the PCB offered. Which also allowed for less crowded beaches. Will definitely stay again.
