Convenient yet quiet with parking for a golf cart!

We had 5 adult women stay and the 2 bedrooms and two baths were great with plenty of space. We loved the option to be able to rent an electric golf cart and plug it in without issue at the property. The balcony is very spacious and offers quick access to the pool. Despite the heat outside the condo was cool and comfortable! We had a great stay and would definitely recommend it.
