The view off the balcony is fantastic and as a corner unit, you get light from 3 sides. We spent hours every day on the balcony looking at the Gulf. Dolphins, rays and numerous sea birds. The beach is maintained every morning - raked and evened out. The pool and hot tub were well maintained and very well used, but we only had an issue getting an umbrella at the pool once in 2 weeks.
Great restaurants in walking distance and tons of big box retail within a five minute drive.
The unit is well stocked with linens and towels (no beach towels which we bought at a nearby Walmart). The kitchen had everything we needed - pots, pans, cutlery, glasses. The starter pack that was left carried us through 2 weeks. When we first arrived we had to search quite a bit for all the beach items (cart, umbrellas, chairs, toys) and the balcony furniture. It was all in a closet off of the balcony.
The parking space is huge.
We would stay here again.
