The condo was clean in a great location and had an amazing view.
10 / 10Outstanding·Sep 2025
This was a perfect location and the condo has a beautiful beach front view and access. The condo was incredibly clean and offered all the amenities we could ask for. The onsite laundry was also a plus. The bed was a little firm for our taste but everything else was outstanding. The guidelines of use were clearly stated and easy to understand. We are looking forward to going back next year as we had a wonderful time and enjoyed our stay!

We travelled to SPI to celebrate our birthdays and were very happy with this accommodation. We took our 2 smallish size dogs and they really enjoyed the beach also.We saw a few people with dogs walking around. I was a little disappointed that not all the beach type bars were not animal friendly but we found one or two.It was lovely waking up and looking at the beach and sitting on balcony..Watching the late night activities of people looking for crabs i suspect was fun also Bring binoculars...we should have... people watching is always fun.!The condo was in a FANTASTIC location and we really appreciated the 2 beach chairs and umbrella that was provided along with plentiful beach towels for us to use. Boogie boards and sand toys too if you needed them! Nice touch!Communication with leasing owners was great no issues. The swimming pool is a little under whelming but i had seen photos and wasnt disappointed. With the beach RIGHT there you dont need it in my opinion.Parking isnt plentiful at condo but we got lucky the 3 nights and found spots in the underground parking garage... small... but theres some other places that we we were provided info about very close.Definitely would return again!

It was very clean in terms of no sand inside, very clean bedding/sheets. I would recommend things like the ageing shower mat, shower fixtures be replaced [hard water] as well as damage from previous leaks in the unit I stayed in. The view, the access to the beach and all the ammenites in the kitchen and beach items were in good order and very much appreciated!
