Perfect Beach Retreat
What an adorable beach themed condo. It was a perfect retreat for my husband and I. The bed was super comfy, the shower was spacious, and the little kitchenette had everything we needed. However our favorite was the deck facing the ocean. We spent hours out there just relaxing and watching the waves. We will definitely be back.

The condo is beautiful and clean! Perfect place for my husband and I to really relax and enjoy ourselves! The Condo had great amenities! The shower is big and beautiful with wonderful water pressure. The queen size bed was very comfortable! The view is fantastic! It’s on the 12th floor and the balcony is facing the ocean. The pelicans would fly by and I just loved it! I highly recommend this place! I wish I got more pictures of the room, but it is what you see on the website! Beautiful and comfortable!
