The beach view is amazing and you can enjoy it right from the living room. The beds were comfy and the showers hot. Fully stocked kitchen was a plus. The condo is located in lovely area and is in driving distance to restaurants and shops.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the clean and spacious rooms as well as the beach view — it’s one of our favorite features too. We appreciate your understanding regarding the one-parking-space limit, as parking can be a bit tight in beach areas. We truly appreciate you staying with us and hope to welcome you back again for another relaxing visit! 🌊

Beautiful beach right out the door and sunset views right out the balcony! While a little distant from AMI or Sarasota this condo was quiet and away from the busyness. Pretty much had whole wide open beautiful beach to ourselves! Kitchen is very small but had what we needed. Walls are thin so easy to hear neighbors and road noise but we just ran a fan at night and were fine. Nice pool and washer/dryer in the unit to use. Very clean and comfortable. Recommend if you don't mind a little drive to shopping/food.

Beautiful location easy to find on a quiet safe beach, with direct views in both the living room and the balcony, and access just a few steps onto the beach. The property was very nice and clean, and it was nice having enough towels for both the beach, and bathrooms. The outside of the property and the beach chairs were nicely cleaned daily. We enjoyed the location ability to also get to the bay to do some fishing and kayaking excursions, as well as being able to go into town for dinner and shopping. Convenient also to get groceries.Would have been nice to have a pot holder for the oven, and a plastic spatula, as the metal one was the reason the one non-stick frying pan was scratched up. Also would be nice to have basic condiments and saran wrap, coffee filters. I left the ones we purchased for the next guest. The dishwasher works, but must run on heavy duty to clean properly. Not the property owners fault but there is construction on both neighboring properties, but it didn't start early, and the building the unit is in looks nicely renovated from the hurricanes, new rocks, fencing, painting, etc.
