This may not apply to everyone, but for my family, finding a 3 BR, 3 BA on the beach, full Gulf of Mexico views and an elevator and 2 parking spots was next to impossible to find. This property has all that, plus a pool, great restaurants within walking distance and close proximity to the trolley stops. The photos are very accurate, and from the moment you walk in the front door you can feel the warmth of home, but better because you can see the Gulf through the large sliders across the room. In between, a very well appointed kitchen and a good size dining table and living room. Plenty of space for the whole family to gather. The furnishings are comfortable and homey, with a nice beach vibe without over doing it. A huge master with walk in bath also has a Gulf view, which is nice to wake up to. The secondary room also has a king size bed. The third bedroom has the two singles and each room has plenty of closet and storage space to fully unpack. No one wants to see the luggage stuck in a corner everyday reminding them vacation must end eventually. There is nothing better than walking down the steps and being in the sand in less than a minute and in the water in less than 3 minutes. Times may vary, I saw some kids do it much faster. The patio is huge, has a table for four, two full size chase lounges and beach item storage out of sight to the side. Some days you don’t even need to go to the beach, just enjoy from the patio and have access to your cold drinks and snacks. My family enjoyed an incredible two week stay and enjoyed it all. While somethings things come up in life, as they did for us on this trip, I could not say anything more positive about the management company or the owner. Both were very responsive to resolve any issue quickly. Karen is a very proud owner of this property, as she should be, it is wonderful. She was exceptional at reaching out before our check in, welcoming us after arrival and being very participatory in helping to resolve a few items throughout our stay and again after our departure. It was clear to me that she wants each guest to feel as at home as she does in this outstanding property by the sea. I have no doubts if you chose this property you will enjoy it as my family did.
