Great location and nice enough.

We stayed for 3 nights over Spring Break. The place was clean and walking distance the beach which was our main focus. We enjoyed our stay and the communication and checkin was easy. The place was clean and very “average”. For the price it was what I should have expected. The pillows were very thin and bedding was low quality, no coffee filters for the machine (which they later brought after I bought some at the grocery store), and the place felt a bit dated. All that said, it was fine for what we needed and I would stay there again.

Island Retreat

The condo was nice in a good location, great access to the beach. Very comfortable beds and great A/C. Was an older condo and could use a little TLC. But over-all a great place.

Amazing stay!

Location was fantastic, right across from the pool, short walk to the beach. All the amenities I needed were at arms reach and the liquor store was a 3 minute drive, so yeah. Great time :D

Easy breezy

We had an amazing stay. Short and sweet, in and out, right on the beach, it was perfect. Definitely can accommodate a big group. The space is much bigger in person. We had a great time.
