If you’re considering heading to the west coast, this condo was just perfect. Great location, beautiful view of the bay, gorgeous sunsets, dolphins playing every day, comfy bed, great recliner, all the amenities you could want.
Groceries stores nearby, great restaurant within walking distance, and no complaints from anyone… except when we had to leave.
Communication was instant, Kimberly picked up phone immediately every time, and everyone was very flexible when we decided to stay one more night.
You won’t be sorry if you book here, and we’ll definitely be back.
Thanks!

My husband and I with our dog stayed for two weeks and had a wonderful time. No words to describe sitting on the patio overlooking the bay and watching dolphins swim through sparkling water. A glass of wine and some of the most beautiful sunsets capped off each evening. The location is perfect for all the things we wanted to do. Friendly neighbors, great restaurant within walking distance across the parking lot - highly recommend! The pool is a very nice add on to enjoy each day for pool people (lots of sun!). The host is one of the best. She replied immediately to the few questions I had; again one of the best VRBO hosts I have had the pleasure to work with. Condo was the perfect size for my husband and I. We will definitely rent again if we return to the area.

Clean, comfortable, convenient location and lovely view of the bay - dolphin watching was a highlight! Well stocked kitchen and thoughtful kitchen supplies provided. Literally next door to Doc Ford's - good food and drinks, friendly service!

I am the finickiest of the finicky about many things when I travel, and I am an avid reader and writer of reviews. Grab a cuppa and sit back, because this one's got some meat.First, I am mobility impaired, and to my pleasant surprise the parking lot was very close to the elevators. Short walk-win! Working elevators-2 of them-win! Luggage carts-win! Elevator entrance very close to entrance for pool and hot tub-win win!The walkway from the elevator to the unit was smooth and had railings. This is not, of course, within the homeowner;s control, but it is worth noting that if you use a cane or mobility aid like me, you will also have a sturdy railing to grab in case you wobble a bit.I am not familiar with using keypad door locks so that took a sec to get into the unit. I opened the door to a cool, exceptionally clean and fresh-smelling-but-not-overly-so home. Now let me start the picking apart.The floors-clean. Walls-clean. Countertops, flat surfaces, clean. I work in the travel industry and I cannot help but observe the little things because it is my job to do so from behind my desk every day. You know how some places you stay, well maybe it LOOKS ok but there's some dust between the fridge and the wall? Not here. Maybe a few scuff marks on the floor? Keep looking. Or how about that one chair that creaks when you sit in it? Nope. Not in this place.It was FABULOUS. Literally EVERY surface was immaculate. No dust on the ceiling fan. No swiping your finger across the tv stand and getting a little smudge. (I didnt do that, for the record, but everything literally GLEAMED).The furniture is comfortable enough and lived-in enough to be just right, but not old looking or faded. There's loads of stuff to do if you got stuck inside on a rainy day: games, books, etc. There were even complimentary water bottles left by the cleaning company and binoculars for watching birds or maybe the boats on the water.The bedroom and living area both open out to the balcony with your choice of chairs and tables. The unit is on sort of a corner, so it feels more private. I did sit there for a time and just enjoy the breeze.The outdoor amenities were in a gated area, but you get the code for this so again, private. Hot tub-my reason for booking- was GOOD AND HOT. I soaked away some tension under a sunny but mild Florida day. I did not use the pool, but Inspector Gadget me took a peek-crystal clear and clean. Nary a leaf to be found in it.The aesthetics of the place were amazing.

Very cute condo with beach-themed decor, EXACTLY as seen in the listing photos. Immaculately clean. Plenty of things to do inside if you were stuck on a rainy day: TV, books, games, even binoculars for bird watching. Patio is lovely and has a nice view of the water. Something that stood out to me was that there was no question how to use anything in the apartment: all light/fan switches were clearly labeled and had remotes nearby. Furniture is comfy. Bar stools are not so tall that a short person has trouble getting in them (I'm 5'3 and I tested this haha). I consider myself an extremely picky person, and there was not one single thing about this place that was less than perfect. Even the community amenities were great: the hot tub was good and hot with good, strong jets. Pool was clean (I did not swim). Parking is very close to the building with 2 elevators and luggage carts you can use. Well-stocked with all the things you might need for a weekend away-or longer. The fridge even had complimentary water bottles. Really, everything was just amazeballs. The guest contact Kimberly was on point: I did have a few questions both before and during the stay, and she was responsive and friendly. ABSOLUTELY an amazing place!
