We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! The condo was clean and surprisingly quiet given how close you are to other units and the pool. The beach is a short 5 minute walk away and it was never loud or crowded. The kitchen was well-stocked with dishes and cookware, but you will need to bring spices and other pantry items if you are planning to cook. We would definitely stay here again!

Great Place to Stay!

My wife and two children recently stayed here and had a wonderful time. The property is clean, well maintained and right on the beach with plenty of activities to keep the kids busy! Three pools, fishing, tennis, pickleball all right there with a very relaxed beach that has a great low tide high tide experience as well. Beaufort is close enough for dinners with the family, overall just a great trip to take with the family. The host stayed in touch and everything was as easy as could be. Thanks for a great trip.
