We had a wonderful time! The condo is so close to the beach and next door to two nice restaurants. The house is very well-equipped and we appreciated little things like hand soaps at all the sinks, shampoo, extra toilet paper for the 3 (three!) bathrooms, and foil/plastic wrap in the kitchen. We also appreciated the parking that included 2 main spots and room for visitors. The restaurants are popular, so it wouldn’t have been easy to have our friends join us for the (lovely) pool otherwise.
About those views: spectacular. Three levels of gorgeous vistas over the bay & marshes. We saw tons of birds and just enjoyed the peace. Even though there are the popular restaurants nearby, it was somehow quiet. Our only regret is that we didn’t get it together to rent a boat to get closer to everything we could see.
Now, to the understanding owner: I’m a doofus and just didn’t notice I had booked until *Friday*, not Saturday. Such was my hubris that, when the cleaning folks arrived in the parking lot while we were leaving, i said there must be a mistake. So I was on my merry way to the beach when the owner called to gently let me know we really didn’t have that extra day. I was mortified & ran back there. Not including the drive over, we were out in 15 minutes. I did not get to leave the property in as good order/cleanliness as I would have & that’s on me. I really appreciate that the owners were reasonable with my mistake.
