This was a last minute booking and of course what caught my eyes were the reviews on it regarding the location because a lot say feet away from the beach and then they end up being mile away but not this location it’s a brisk walk to the beach location is excellent with some fast foods nearby now the apartment is a 2 bedroom one bath very clean with all ur basic essentials ready to use Serena is very responsive to texts wish I could’ve stayed longer here but do plan to return. ##### Jennifer R.

We had a great time on SPI and a cozy place to stay at provided by Island Rentals SPI. We had everything we needed for our stay. Besides food and beverage of course. We were a walk away from the beach among Karma Coffee and some other sites to see, eat and enjoy. I definitely recommend booking with Serena. Easy and detailed info before and during your stay. She is a true delight to work with. ##### Jeff and barbie N.

This condo is in such a great location to enjoy everything on SPI! Everything we wanted to do is in walking distance. The beach access has a nice restaurant that made our time on the beach really enjoyable. Directly across on the bay side is a row of restaurants/bars that have music every night and is a great place to watch the fireworks. The condo was very nice and clean with plenty of space and a full kitchen. Can't wait to come back! ##### Mike V.

Such a clean, beachy vibe and it is literally right across from the beach! Beds are super comfy and the WiFi is great! Enclosed patio in the back with the outdoor shower is such a plus and has everything you need in the kitchen to cook. Oh, and the location!! The location cannot be beat. Literally walking distance to the cutest coffee shop, shopping and multiple dining options as well as a fun amusement park! 10 out of 10 would recommend. We plan on staying here again! ##### Tessa F.

There’s so much you can access by just walking out your doorstep. The unit is One of the nicest that we have stayed at and the property management is very responsive and was great to work with. Do unit has a fully stocked kitchen private entrance in the rear with outdoor shower which was great so we didn’t track sand into the unit. We would love to stay here again and being two minutes from the beach was such a blessing. We were surprised that we were walking distance to the Tuesday firework show, go karts, pizza and food trucks. ##### Donald S. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Donald S. 7 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Best location on SPI What a fantastic location on the island.

It was so cool being able to wake up and walk right to the beach in two minutes, or walk to a local coffee shop in two minutes!! This condo had everything we needed, including a private, fenced back area with an outdoor shower. We could leave all our beach stuff outside and not have to worry about bringing sand inside or somebody taking our items. We could see the fireworks right from our front door. It was amazing. ##### Smm This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leticia V. 3 Jan 2023 #### Great location and perfect stay! This condo is absolutely perfect!!! First floor unit in the middle of the entertainment area made it easy to get around and enjoy everything. The beach access across the street has a quaint bar and grill with live music & Tequila Sunsets directly across on the bay side also had great music and dancing. Meatball Cafe around the corner is great for a more formal dining experience with awesome Italian food. The condo itself has everything you need and is well maintained and clean. The back patio is very roomy and has an outdoor shower to rinse off the sand from the beach. Serena was super friendly and attentive, and made sure everything was perfect. We really enjoyed our stay and can’t wait to return next year! ##### Leticia V.
