Beautiful place would recommend to anyone to stay here. The room was so clean a very nice kitchen as well and the view of the beach was outstanding. We enjoyed the balcony to just relax from the heat and enjoy our lunch or dinner. We could just walk out and there was the beach this was just what we wanted. Great place will go back!!!

Fabulous unit with an unobtructed view of the Gulf of Mexico from the screened in patio. Bedroom closes off with nice sliding doors. Room is equipped with shutters to keep light in the unit from affecting the nesting turtles. Beach was right outside the unit. Beach chairs and umbrellas were available for free. Great location being mid island, with restaurants and shops close by.

Really nice, updated, and clean room with a screened waterfront balcony in a perfect place on the island (far enough away from the big resorts to be in a quieter area, but close enough to the center area of the island to be convenient).
