Living in Orlando, we find NSB to be our "go to" place for beach-time. We've stayed in quite a few condos as well as hotels and motels. This time we wanted to bring our little dog with us and it's quite difficult to find a nice place where he is welcome to stay. We wanted to be ocean front and we didn't want to be on too high a floor as we like taking stairs for added exercise, but not so many flights as we have to walk the dog a bunch of times a day. Done and done!
Brent and Christina could not have been nicer. Their care in ensuring the comfort of their guests is evident in their keeping in touch prior to, during and after we were in their condo. The condo is immaculate (so important!). The furnishings are clean and very nice. Personally, I'm not into crafty beach decor, so this was a welcome change. Clean, tasteful and not overdone. The beds and linens are top quality, and there are many extra pillows and blankets should you need them. There are also two roll away beds available. There was an ironing board, several hair dryers, and lots of nice fluffy towels. And there were beach towels, too. The kitchen was well equipped. So are you getting my drift?
We spent most of our time on the balcony. The view is gorgeous. Our dog loved sitting out there, and because it's a corner unit, you can see down the beach as well as in front of you. And there was a beautiful breeze after about 11:00 a.m. that lasted all day. Stairwell was right outside the door. Elevator was very close but I never used it. Assigned parking, so no frantic searching for a space. And, yes, you do have to walk the dog off property, but it's just at the end of the parking lot. And there is one of those little doggie plastic bag dispensers right at the end of the parking lot. Nice.
The pools were big and nice. We also spent a lot of time in the lounge chairs on the deck at the edge of the property right where the sand starts. Seems as though you're in the sand, but you don't have to drag your chairs out, and if you want to go in the ocean, it's right in front of you. The grounds are kept very clean and the people we encountered from Sea Coast Gardens were all very nice.
So, I'm signing off now and hoping you choose this condo with Brent and Christina. I don't think you will be disappointed. We didn't want to leave! Have FUN! (Oh, and PS - don't book this so much that we can't find a spot next year . . .)
