This condo was exactly as advertised and exactly what I needed! It was clean, & well stocked with towels & kitchenware. The pool was very large & the location can’t be beat. Allowing dogs was the icing on the cake. The elevator made it perfect for my elderly mother & she had a wonderful 85th birthday. They even have carts available downstairs which made loading & unloading the car a breeze. I have been visiting the area for many years, and this place is hands down my favorite place I’ve stayed. I will definitely be back here!

What a view

Really like the property and location. Overall nice unit the umbrella and chairs they have in the unit need updating we didn’t use them we just rented from the chair vender and was guaranteed a front row view everyday without carrying a bunch of stuff to the beach. I would definitely stay here again

About the host

Hosted by Sarah Atkins

Host profile image

My husband and I have been coming to Aqua Villa since our honeymoon there in 1994. My folks owned two units, and we bought this condo from them in December 2015. This is "home away from home", and it's treated like that!

Why they chose this property

Aqua Villa is smaller - just 24 condos total - and you don't need to walk through a lobby to get to the beach. Just walk right out the front door, down a small set of stairs and you're at the pool! (There is an elevator too for when you have luggage, etc). You'll love staying here.

What makes this property unique

Since Aqua Villa has just 24 units and an expansive shoreline in front of it, there is always front-row room at the beach for everyone. (The larger condos with a lot of people often have crowded beaches in front of them with rmultiple ows of umbrellas and chairs.)
