Chasity was extremely prompt, nice and patient with me when I had difficulty with getting in to the unit. The hint is to press the little house symbol first and then enter passcode.The location is great with a view of the beach and a few hundred steps to the beach.On cooler days we enjoyed the indoor pool , hot tub and sauna.If you’re a tea drinker like me I used a sauce pan to boil the water, I’d advise bringing or portable kettle if you have one. The two tvs are sizable, one is Roku to which we are not accustomed. The other we attached our VSee box to watch LiveBarn AAAboys hockey!Be sure to bring beach chairs, blankets, umbrella, pool noodles etc if you have them.Most of all leave your cares at home and enjoy! If you have forgotten anything you can take a road trip to Walmart, Target or many other places!

The condo was really nice, however the beach view from the balcony is a little different from what it actually is. Overall, we enjoyed it and will probably come back.

We had a great girls trip at this cute little condo. The owner was accessible by text if we needed anything or had any questions. Although we had everything we needed! The condo was clean/organized. We loved the trivia game! Area/Beach was not rowdy/loud at all like some of the more popular spring break areas. Pools were awesome/clean and the indoor pool was great to escape the sun. Kids enjoyed the take it/leave it beach toys bins, and adults very much enjoyed the Sauna and Steam-room! 10/10 Great weekend trip for us!

Owner of the condo was just a text away and very helpful throughout the stay. We loved the location and the whole experience. You would not even have to leave the property to enjoy yourself. Theres plenty to do
