Great 4 bedroom unit walkable to beach and golf
We had a wonderful stay at the unit. Very clean and well appointed. Would have loved a kitchen table but otherwise suited our needs.

Best of all things
Close to everything you want it to be close to for a trip here. Amazingly spacious for its size to situate 4bed 4bath. The deck and screened porch provides a tranquil outdoor space to enjoy everything that nature offers here from watching wildlife to the breeze off the coast. Easy walk to the beach, pool, golf, etc. This is now a repeat on my list.
