A slice of paradise

This beautiful clean condo smelled great when we walked in and was perfect for our family of 4 plus a best friend and a dog. Easy quick access to the beach, Waves grocery store and north point lagoon where our dog could enjoy a little trail by the water. (Thanks for sharing that best kept secret!) The host was very responsive and easy to communicate with. They even have 4 beach chairs to borrow. Thanks for sharing this beautiful slice of paradise.

Perfect spot by the beach for our family of 5 and 2 fur babies!

The condo was perfect for our beach stay! Just a short walk to the beach. There are also a couple little grocery stores very close for little forgotten things and a great little ice cream shop! The condo was clean and comfy too! Would definitely recommend and stay again. Thank you! Oh and JONATHAN! Jonathan was spectacular with communication and any needs! Thank you for a such a great vacation!

Quick Getaway

Booked because it was pet friendly and convenient to everything. In residential area. Only a couple of stairs to get our pet outside to do his thing. More convenient than larger condos. Not on beach, but close to beach access and the state park. Can see ocean and bay from end of deck. Would book again.

July 2023 Stay

We stayed for 8 days. The property was close to EVERTHING! We thought the decor was nice, and offered everything we needed for our stay. All of our communications with the property management were met with considerate and timely responses. We'd definitely stay here again. Side note... we're in our 50's and the stairs were a bit trying but worth the climb plus we got a little workout too.

Great stay

Clean, nice decor, comfortable bed! Everything you could need down to games/puzzles, big pots/pans for feeding a larger crowd and even chip clips to keep the bags closed! Short walk to the beach. Only “critiques” were not enough hangers in the master, no hangers in the secondary bedroom, and the spiral staircase handrails were slightly low for how high they go up! But our teenagers did fine with it. I would be careful with smaller ones staying up in the loft. Overall, lovely place and we had a great time, thank you!

Perfect location

Felt like home away from home! All the kitchen appliances and things you need! Cooking utensils? Got ‘em all! Was able to make a family breakfast and you really forget what all you need… until you don’t even scissors.. but, this place does! Close enough to the beach for an evening walk (or morning jog— if that’s your thing). The living room, and two bedroom all had a sliding glass door to the patio. (Which was nice to sit out at night chatting with your momma.) The big shower heads with multiple showering options was really relaxing after a long hot day! Also, both times I had to contact management— fast response and Teri (Terry?) was so sweet and helpful! Will hopefully book again next summer!

Family vacation

The pictures when booking were beautiful! We got there and it wasn't the cleanest. Thick dust on all the fans, which we had to use. The bathroom had used bars of soap in the shower. Also in the master, the cabinets were filthy. The diningroom chairs have dust bunnies on the bottoms. We were there for 4 days and only got 4 towels, I had to keep doing laundry. We loved the location, loved it was pet friendly and loved the board games. We would stay again! But it definitely needs to be cleaned better. I went to use the broom, to try to keep up with the floors and it was broke.
