Exceptional Property close to beach
I fell in love with the community and the location and proximity! to the beach! One of the nicest vacations I have had in years. The process from booking was soooo easy and I have 0 complaints. Will definately be booking another stay, and probably the same condo!

Very nice property private walkway to the beach.
wonderful location that steps from the beach and close to a lot of attractions in the area. The only challenge I had was I have a mobility scooter to get to my van and there is an unnumbered parking spot at the tennis court entrance with the handicap ramp. So when people were parked in the spot i could not get out and have access to the van. You might want to consider talking to the property about striping it due to the handicap ramp like the ramp is striped for access to the pool. We would stay again
