What a beautiful place to stay! I wish I could live here. Walking up to that view everyday was heaven. I would stay here over and over again. The condo had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Plenty of beach towels, comfy beds, lots of room for my whole family to be spread out and enjoy the space. I would give 20 stars if I could.

We had a great stay! The condo was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The location was perfect, and the owners were wonderful to work with. The only thing we would change is the patio furniture. There just wasn’t enough seating for a family of 5. We’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!

Thanks for the input on the balcony furniture, it's a small space with not a lot of room but will definitely consider a different arrangement, that stuff doesn't last long

Unobstructed direct view of the beach! Clean, comfortable, and modern styled condo. Plenty of space to spread out as a family of 5. Direct access to the beach with a rinse/ shower station on the way. The daily chair and tent set up was an appreciated luxury. Close to shops without the crowds. Would stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Stephen Bowden

Host profile image

I am a retired physician with a loving family living locally, enjoying all the beauty and wonders of the area, and sharing opportunities to enjoy waking up to dolphins playing right out in front of you in their own habitat.

Why they chose this property

This neighborhood is quiet, safe, close to the most popular shopping areas and unique restaurants, being perfect for families wanting privacy and convenience.

What makes this property unique

It’s the best unit in our area because it showcases the best unobstructed panoramic gulf views throughout- being the corner, top floor unit, directly on the Gulf. Couple the views with convenient parking, complimentary beach service and no hassles - just beach front at your fingertips! Inside the decor is luxury upscale coastal with all natural pure linens and appointed details set your comfort and convenience. The ease of parking steps away from the condo, checking in, and walking straight out to the beach all within 5 mins speaks volumes.
