Very nice place

I would choose to stay here again. The Property and grounds are excellent, the unit is spacious and very clean with an outstanding view. Proximity to the elevator and laundry is a plus. Pool and beach access are excellent. The actual beach is absolutely pristine. Only issue which was not a game changer—as I had to go to the grocery anyway, was the very limited amount of toilet paper (one roll) and zero paper towels in the unit. I realize this is a growing trend in these rentals, but it can be inconvenient for the guests. In the rental information they provide, it is noted that there is a starter supply, but no real mention of paper towels. Other than that the unit had everything I needed.

This was a great place! The location was perfect if you are looking for a more out of the way for some peace and quiet. It’s at the end of the Bach and it was perfect but still just a few minutes drive to anything you may need.

"From desert to ocean"

Property was ready on time and very well stocked..without the usual spices due to covid era!..need more towels than just 2, since the humidity means more showers. suggest some warning how the beach umbrella monopoly works, since unless you stake your spot before 6 am, the beach chair guys hogs the ocean front!1

Loved location!

This was great location with a wonderful view! Veryy easy access to the beach, just a few minute walk and your feet are in the sand. The complex had a very laid-back atmosphere perfect for families. The condo & pool were very clean but I would not count on using the pull out couch as a bed it could possibly work for a child but not comfortable enough for an adult to sleep on so keep that in mind. Overall we had a great stay and I highly recommend eating at Stewbys while visiting FWB.

Will Definitely Return

We LOVED our stay! The condo was clean and welcoming. Florida was giving us rainy days and we wanted to stay one extra day so we could enjoy the beach when the sun was out. The owner was gracious to let us extend!! The location of the unit was wonderful and the gulf views were phenomenal!
