Spring Break 2024
We had a fantastic time in SPI. The condo is a tight fit for a family of 4 and a dog but definitely doable. It was clean and well-stocked. Location can’t be beat! Extra security paid for by the building during Spring Break was also greatly appreciated, and the owners were very responsive! Highly recommend this condo.

Adorable condo
The studio condo had everything we needed. It was the best location-steps from the beach! The condo was supplied with everything you need to have a great time. We stayed for about a month with our dog, and it couldn’t have been better! I’d definitely book this location again.

Really enjoyed the location of this property! Quick easy, walk to the beach and has all the amenities to rinse off after enjoying the beach. Centrally located for the most part and room was very clean. Definitely would recommend.

4th of July week
The parking immediately on property was very limited- across the street was good. We drove a midsize SUV & realized it was NOT drive-thru lot. A very tight fit for our new car. us A lady pulled rt behind us & we realized it was too tight for us to park, we politely asked her to roll back to let us out. She refused!!!! SHE told us we were fine - SHE has an SUV & can park there & she was NOT moving. OKAY.. so after maneuvering very tight to our liking, we made it in. The lady in the vehicle gave us our parking pass. Disappointed to know this was an OWNER?Not a good 1st impression. Went up to the room, changed to go down to the beach... NO ACCESS AT OUR LOCATION. Nope! The city was dredging up sand from the ocean and pumping it onto sand to prevent/resist erosion. Seriously! There were signs posted in elevator letting residents/visitors know this was going to be happening for many days. We were never forewarned. It was not landlord's fault, but a HEADS UP or DISCOUNTED rate would have been a kindness. We booked this place bc of it's location- ON THE BEACH... so we had to wagon it down to a beach access road all week long. Disappointed to say the least after a 5 hr drive, and booking several months out. The room was clean, refrigerator is small, FYI, so check size before buying any perishables (frozen pizzas, bag ice.) The pillows- like pancakes!! $20 in pillows could make the visit better. We went & bought our own.

Great little place!
My cousin and I stayed for an extra long girls' weekend in Feb and were extremely pleased with the accommodations. It is very small, but it's all we needed. The view from the balcony is great and the extras that the hosts provide (keyless entry, beach chairs, small cooler, beach umbrella, beach towels, soft bedding, etc) make you feel safe and right at home. We would absolutely stay again if given the opportunity.
