THINGS TO KNOW
Please be advised that a roof replacement project is currently underway at Sterling Shores, with an anticipated completion date by the end of September 2026, and a walkway project through December 2026. Construction activity will occur Monday through Saturday from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM, with the possibility of Sunday work if weather delays are encountered. During morning hours (7:00 AM to approximately noon), guests may experience sawing and scraping noise, most notably in penthouse units. Afternoon work is expected to be considerably quieter. For the floor project, you may deal with noise, dust, and grinding sound. We sincerely appreciate your patience and understanding as this necessary improvement is completed, and we regret any inconvenience this may cause during your stay.

Lovely stay

We very much enjoyed our time at this condo. Everything as described. We particularly enjoyed sitting out on the patio, the wade in kiddie pool for our 2 year old, and of course the beach. Walking distance to The Back Porch restaurant and a cute little candy and ice cream shop.
