ProsThe host was fantastic. The rate was pretty good rate. Once you walked to the beach it wasn’t super crowded.The pool was really nice. The building was super quiet. We really enjoyed our stay. ConsIt is not a one bedroom one bath. It’s a studio.The view is majority of sand dunes of the Air Force base. The building is only two stories tall.We thought we were gonna be on the 6th floor by the condo number. You had to walk about a hundred yards or so over the hot asphalt to the beach crossover. These are the reasons I give it 4 instead of 5 stars. The host was definitely 5 stars for sure.

Wonderful views The unit was very clean and well organized. It was just the two of us, but would have been comfortable for 2 couples. There were some issues with the elevator, but it was only out of operation for a few hours.

Breathtaking View & Comfy Condo The condo was immaculate and had everything we needed for a short get away! Communication with the owner was great and he answered all of our questions in a timely manner. The view of the gulf was amazing! Spent so much time at the beautiful beach that was just steps away. Would absolutely stay at this location again!

Family time is the best time! Thank you for sharing your lil condo with me during my visit with my mom! While I didn’t use any appliances the kitchen was well stocked for anyone who enjoys cooking! The gorgeous white quartz beach is just a few steps away! This is a cute little place to just get away!
