Nice location, at the end of the street and no obstructed views. Great for those sunset pictures. The kitchen was my favorite with everything provided and a lot of counter space. The views of the water from the room were great and the property is beautiful.

Excellent stay

The condo was incredibly clean and provided for every amenity. Pamela thought of everything, starter toilet paper rolls, paper towel rolls, hand soap, the list goes on and on. An incredible value for the price! Location is great, the beach was not crowded. Traffic can be a problem but that is not unusual for panhandle stays. Highly recommend this suite to anyone for a short or longer stay.

This property was clean and well-stocked, and they even included beach chairs to use. We loved sitting out in the balcony and watching the ocean. The host was very responsive and helpful. We will come back!
