WHAT OUR GUESTS HAVE TO SAY
Over The Top" is an understatement for this amazing property! The location is ideal. Definitely recommend renting the golf cart. Makes it so easy to get to the public beach access point. Pool is awesome as is the outdoor spaces with grills. Everything was clean and well taken care of. Quiet, beautiful neighborhood. Another bonus - access to the community clubhouse which is nearby with tennis courts, community pool, and workout room. The balcony views of the ocean are a bonus too. I absolutely loved the high ceilings everywhere. No negatives at all - Brad
Excellent location, great amenities and beautiful beach within a short walk. -Christopher
Our family ABSOLUTELY LOVED this BEAUTIFUL home! The LOCATION was PERFECT for going to the OUTLET SHOPS and GROCERY STORES and RESTAURANTS! We could see the BEAUTIFUL BLUE WATER and WHITE SAND from the house! LOVED having an elevator that was so quiet and smooth for my elderly parents. The pool with waterfalls was so nice to hear even though we didn’t go swimming or use the hot tub it was soothing to just hear the waterfalls. LOVED having access to the 6 person GO CART to ride to the short drive to the beach. Plenty of seating and room to get around in the home especially for elderly ones with walkers. We would LOVE to go back again. THANK YOU for making our trip a WONDERFUL one. -Tammy
