🌴 Off-Season Value (November–February) SNOWBIRDS
November through February is our off-season, offering quieter beaches, cooler weather, and our lowest rates of the year. Guests interested in extended winter stays are welcome to ask about special monthly snowbird pricing. During this time, associations and owners may schedule routine maintenance, updates and improvements, so there may occasionally be nearby daytime noise between November 1 and February 28. Our reduced seasonal rates reflect this possibility.

Nautilus makes it so easy, we can always depend on good service, clean facility, and all the amenities they offer are fabulous. We loved the beach bags, beach towels and beach cooler they started offering. The outdoor patio space is spectacular, the most comfortbale outdoor seating!

Reviewer Comments:
Our condo was great and clean, the lady working in the office was so nice and helpful. The beach wasn’t overly crowded like you would think with it being the week of the 4th. Love staying at The Nautilus, this was our second year in a row to stay at the condo in two different units.

This was a great property. Very clean and and awesome location. Our only compliment was the excessive amout of smoking at the pool the whole time we were there. It was so bad, we couldn't enjoy it.
6 / 10Average·Sep 2023
We arrived with no problem, but once we opened the door to the condo. There was an overwhelming stench of mold and mildew. We went to purchase some Lysol and Febreze to cover the awful smell until we got maintenance to come in the morning. He arrived with 2 Damp Rid buckets. I let him know that we had a guest with a serious mold and mildew allergy. He then brought up and air purifier and a large noisy dirty dehumidifier machine that was put in the kitchen because the tubes had to run into the sink. I appreciated his efforts but we all know once that smell is there, the condo has a problem. I reached back out to the manager to let her know that we did have a guest with an allergy problem who was having trouble and that we did not expect to have to spend our relaxing week at the beach with this dirty dehumidifier in the kitchen, making it impossible to have a peaceful meal And enjoy being inside the condo. The response was that the maintenance man came back up to offer to take the dehumidifier from the condo. Our feelings were that that would only help the problem get worse again. She never responded to the email herself, or came to meet with us. We were never offered a different condo or some sort of discount being that our stay was different than what was we paid for. Very disappointed. Will return to the area but not that building.
