A Quiet, Relaxing Villa

The villa was very clean and equipped with everything we needed for our stay. Everyone we encountered on the property was very friendly. We especially liked the fact that there was 24/7 security at the gated entry. We were there for the beaches which were very convenient. We definitely recommend this villa and would stay there again.

Home away from home!

I seriously felt like this was MY apartment that I have lived in all my life. This was a very homey feeling space and I loved every minute of it. So close to the beach that we went EVERYDAY! (Sorry about all the sand on the floor!) I hope that I can book the same space again later this summer or fall!

Nice Unit

This property was very clean and had everything we needed or wanted. Beach chairs, towels, cooler, and umbrella were available but we had brought our own. There were lots of bath towels and sheets available for our use as well. The check in process was very easy and the owner gave very clear directions of where the property is and how to use the lock to get into the unit. It was an easy 3 to 4 minute walk to the beautiful beach. I was looking forward to using the pool and the tiki bar but they were under construction and I did not know this ahead of time. It would have been nice to know that there was no elevator, but we managed to go up the stairs to the 2nd floor. The unit itself could use a little updating but was just fine.

The location, value, and everything was great! The community was fairly empty when I was there. An occasional person walking around, a few golfers, but not many people at all. I took a 1-mile walk down the beach and back several times. I saw, at most, 20 people. This is a good thing if you want a fairly private beach. And the best part is the next 20 miles south are even more empty beaches if those 20 people are too many for you!This is a popular place for sea turtles to lay eggs, so you need to avoid their nests, which are usually marked with sticks and caution tape. You're not allowed to have lights out on the beach at night. But that's the thing. You get nighttime beach access here if your want it! Just be sure to use big spray (deet!) or you'll get eaten alive. Ask me how I know. Don't expect anything fancy. But this place is certainly comfortable and quite well stocked with kitchen supplies. Plenty of space and a tremendous value! I wish it had a stronger A/C unit, but I'm not complaining. This place was great and I'd come back again, easy. Plenty clean, and about a 2.5 minute casual walk to the beach. Walk past the building your staying in, walk past a good green, one more small building, then you're entering the beach. There's a shower and hose to wash off on your way back from the beach and your feet will dry off by the time you get back.One thing to be aware of: the on-site restaurant(s?) was closed for business. Food needs to come from elsewhere.Thanks!

Cute Beach Stay

This unit was great! The proximity to the *practically private* beach was the best part for sure. It was clean and had pretty much everything we needed. Adding an umbrella to the closet with beach items would be perfect. The restaurant on the property was good too, their brunch was delicious. I would recommend getting a rental car as most of the restaurants are not in walking distance. Overall, would recommend the condo and area.

Great stay!

We had a very nice time here....the condo was extremely clean and well organized with many extras included....towels, sheets, beach chairs and beach bags, etc. Upon checking in we had a small issue with the TV which was immediately taken care of by the owner, Jameli and the property manager Sharon. They were both very helpful and approachable. The beach and the pools were just divine! Would recommend.
