It's an older building, but the condo itself has been totally renovated/updated. The decor is charming, and so is the owner :) We'll be back!!! ##### George L. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tammy D. 6 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing Beachfront Views Exactly as described! Currently, parts of the property are under renovations but it did not affect my trip for the most part. Tracy is a great host and was very responsive to messages. The condo is beautifully decorated and comfortable. It is also very well stocked with everything you may need. You can see the beach from the room perfectly... I found myself sitting on the couch staring at the water a lot rather than watching tv. It was very relaxing. Due to the renovations the balcony was not available this trip but I still had amazing views of the water. The pool was also great. The water temp was perfect for these hot Florida days to help cool off. Between the pool and the boardwalk to the beach, there is an area that is perfect for sitting and enjoying the salt water breeze and listening to the waves, this area contains a picnic table and multiple grills as well. Every morning and evening, I walked down to the beach and captured pictures of beautiful gulf sunrises and sunsets. During the day the beach service had chairs and umbrellas for us to use as well, which was a great addition. I look forward to coming back here at a future time after all the renovations are completed. ![Morning beach view](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ae489541-1dfb-4bb7-af66-1921b9f4fdef-1749213918074.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Sunset beach view](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/680633f5-ff7e-4310-ab5f-a37328bc8a27-1749213918084.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![From the area by the grills overlooking the beach](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0345de90-ebc6-43e9-86c4-b3e8340e036a-1749213918314.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![A calm water day ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/972e889b-a77b-48ad-8fac-c9869a23d7ba-1749213917543.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Tammy D. Stayed 5 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### michele c. 2 Jan 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Christmas Getaway This condo was perfect getaway for my two kids, husband, and I. The view was spectacular. The couch was so comfy that one of the four of us fell asleep on it nightly. Everything was provided such as dish liquid, trash bags, dishwasher detergent, all kitchen supplies for cooking, towels, toiletries for bathing, and plenty of pillows and blankets. I will definitely revisit ##### michele c. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dori C. 14 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy and nice space! This was a great space and location. Everything was clean and orderly. Check in process was easy and accommodating for our schedule. It was nice to see this VRBO wasn't "barren". By that I mean, there was some dishwashing detergent and a package of dishwasher pods. Some places we've stayed don't even give you an extra garbage bag and you have to buy soap to wash dishes. Thankfully there was a hair blow dryer as I forgot mine at home. It didn't work quite correctly, but enough to get the job done. We would stay here again! ##### Dori C. Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ashley D. 21 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely We had a lovely time at this condo. Lots of kitchen amenities. The mattresses in the second bedroom were on their last leg as you could feel the coils while you’re sleeping, but if you drink enough it doesn’t matter 🙃 The only reason I gave four stars for the accuracy of online listing is because it clearly stated in the pictures that they had boogie boards and two water friendly beach chairs in the closet and it did not. We came with our family of four and decided to leave those two very items at home and my niece was highly disappointed when there was no boogie board to be found. The other two adults had to sit on the sand and when you’re older that’s hard.. I’d recommend removing that photo. Other than that it was absolutely wonderful ##### Ashley D.
