We loved the beach access. The office help were amazing. They are doing an amazing job fixing the property after so many problems with the hurricane damage.

They are still rebuilding from the storms so none of the outdoor amenities were open yet. We were informed of this when we booked.The condo was very clean & had everything we needed. I would definitely stay there again!

We stayed for 6 days at the beginning of March. The weather was pretty nice, with a few cool mornings. Easy access to the beach. Still a lot of construction noise going on , but that was expected. We had to switch units for our last day/night which was inconvenient due to 3rd party overbooking, but were notified of that prior to our stay. Both units we stayed in were very nice and very clean.
