    5/5

    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.

    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

    5/5

    We had the best time! Everything you need is provided and the grounds had so much to offer- indoor pool and hot tub plus two beachside pools. Easy access to the beach (view of the ocean from the balcony) and the buildings have recently been updated on the exterior and look very nice.

    5/5

    This was our first family vacation as a family of 5 and it was amazing! I highly recommend booking here if you have kiddos. It was so easy and many things to do to keep kiddos occupied. Definitely will be booking again! The condo was a decent size for all 5 of us. And our host, Chasity, was so nice and helpful!

    5/5

    We stay here for a week because of a business conference & my family loved it. The amenities are amazing, the host was able to accommodate an early check in, she’s super responsive. The beach is about 100 yards out. The balcony has an awesome view of the beach. The unit is super cozy. Overall we had an amazing time & are hoping to come again soon since we made some really great friends here!
