The room was clean. Staff was pleasant and helpful. Parking was good. The pools and hot tubs were in good condition and fun. The walk down to the beach was short and the sand and water were amazing.

Directly on the Gulf, larger end unit, both bedrooms have water view!
The hostess had everything detailed and sent to me in a timely manner. The condo had all the amenities needed and a lot of extras. I especially appreciated the welcome snack basket after a long drive! The views were amazing and the condo had a great comfy feel.
