Honeymoon Trip

Gorgeous condo! Great view. Loved the comfy robes. Walking distance to beach and yummy restaurants! Parking was a little tight and when one car parks crooked it’s hard to fit the rest of the cars. Would stay here again!

Very nice place, touch of road noise

Very nice place. The unit was very clean. It would have been nice to at least have salt & pepper there. Bring everything if you stay here.Parking was VERY narrow. Some toad noise from US-31 but they did offer ear plugs.
