The amount of space of the condo was perfect for our family and there was a bed to spare! The view of the sunrises were amazing to wake up to, and the boardwalk access to the beach was a breeze. The old condos have been updated with new finishes. The 4-star comes from the smell of the condo, likely from moisture, or being old buildings surviving storms.
We loved our stay. Everything was just great. Even though the weather wasn’t the best. We still enjoyed the views, the great seafood in the area and just being at the beach…
Thank you for being a fabulous host!!
My best friend and I came from CA and absolutely loved our condo there. It was clean, adorably decorated, peaceful, spacious, and had a stunning view. Everything we needed was already stocked. From booking it, to checking in, and leaving, it was all very easy. Thank you! We look forward to returning next year!!
Well furnished & clean condo! We enjoyed the direct beach access and sitting area under the house. The bunkbed was a hit for the kids! There was a liquor store & bar directly across the street and food trucks & a Dollar General were a walkable distance. We will be back!

My husband and I took both our mothers for a winter weekend at the beach. This property was right on the beach and even though it was cold, we had the best view and could hear the ocean waves even with the glass doors closed. It was amazing.
The view is amazing and the beach was at your fingertips. The house is in need of repair. Floors are warped and need replacing. There are gaps in the floor. Washer and dryer are very loud. We had a great time just needs a little fixing.

Reviewer Comments:
The most spectacular gulf beach with white sand and clear blue water! We loved the location of our unit, which was well maintained, immaculately clean and professionally decorated in a beachy farmhouse style. We enjoyed the covered porch underneath to stash our beach gear and for early morning and late evening conversation with the wonderful sea breeze. Brittney from New Wave made our check-in, check-out and even staying an extra day seamless. We could not have asked for better customer service! We loved the vibe of this small town and found wonderful local restaurants every evening. These folks are truly resilient.

Enjoyed our stay here - walking distance to food trucks, package store, cute little bar. Easy bike ride to a great park and restaurants. Townhome had all we needed for a long weekend. Master bath doors don't close and the floor boards have some large gaps, but otherwise, this is a great place to relax and catch up with family and friends, cook out, and watch the sunset from the balcony. Several gathering places in the home, plus the beach is right out the door!

Reviewer Comments:
Nice stay on the beach, property location is great, it would be nice to have some throw rugs in doorways, it would sure help control sand on the floors. Overall nice place, management very receptive to dryer not working, however, it was never completely fixed. Hopefully a new one will be installed.
