This property is lovely and well done. The kitchen is well stocked with supplies. The location is great and the views are amazing. We had breakfast or dinner on the balcony each night and had the ocean waves as our backdrop. The fireworks kick off from the pier so you have a front row view every Friday and Saturday night. There is a beach chair and umbrella rental spot right on the beach so you don’t have to pack your own if you don’t want to. It’s also located right across the street from the turtle sanctuary, which was a treat and within walking distance of several great restaurants. We hope to be back soon. It was the much needed getaway we needed.

This property was spectacular!!! Ocean front with all amenities including an unbelievably stocked kitchen. Decorated beautifully and updated. The patio was an amazing place to watch the sunrise. Access to the beach was a bonus with entry gate that requires code and shower to rinse off. Very well insulated as there is a bar next door that we didn't even hear. Grounds were beautifully kept with a very nice pool. Location wise...close to everything and walking distance to a few beach bars. Contact and responses from Cheryl were great. Highly recommend as we will be back again!

Amazing stay, easy check in and great communication! The beachfront ocean views were absolutely breathtaking and we loved having balcony access from both the living room and bedroom. The condo was spotless and exactly as described. Extra comfy bed & lots of extra amenities (*only 2 rolls of t.p).Security was a huge plus!! They actively checked wristbands, monitored beach access, and enforced parking so there were always spots available. (It’s worth noting that if you are there during spring break Clayton’s and Louie’s nearby can get busy and a bit loud, but honestly, it wasn’t bothersome inside the condo at all. If anything, it added to the fun…we enjoyed the music and a little people-watching from the balcony!) Chairs, etc for the beach were a great bonus!We loved it so much we extended our stay and were so thankful that 208 was available. Overall, a great experience and we would definitely stay here again!

A True Gem

What a great place to stay. It is exactly as described, very well appointed and very tastefully decorated. We had everything we needed to comfortably enjoy our stay. The location is perfect. We would have our breakfast on the deck and listen/watch the surf. Couldn't have asked for anything more. Definitely a place we will visit again and its location on the island was perfect for us. Thank you for taking the time for being so thoughtful and gracious.

Quiet Party

My husband and I booked this property as a birthday weekend getaway. The condo was beautiful and clean, with a great view of the ocean. It was steps away from the beach and had two clean, warmed pools on the property. The property was right next to a big bar and we were left undisturbed, with the doors closed you wouldn’t even know it was there. We were able to enjoy the music from the balcony. The view of the sunrise was spectacular and we will definitely be visiting again.

Working with Waves

We’ve been coming to SPI every year after school is out to spend a week, dogs and kids, working and playing at the beach. We’re so fortunate to have remote jobs and we try to take advantage as much as possible. Wake to the Waves was our favorite by far. Cheryl and the crew at complex was super responsive. The unit was clean and well stocked. The pull out and bed were both comfy. The view was awesome and we all enjoyed breakfast and dinner on the porch overlooking the gulf. Looking forward to booking Wake at the Waves again!

A fantastic find

Fabulous location, as the listing pictures show. (They’re legit!) The place was well-decorated and the kitchen had everything we needed to make full meals. Bathroom was quite nice. No shortage of beach chairs in the closet. Balcony was sizable and provided great views and comfort. The facility had two decent pools (great temperature for night swimming in December, at least in the opinion of this Midwestern family) and we always were able to find open laundry machines in the central building (the washer and dryer are not in the condo, but just a quick walk away). Our small dog loved the stay, too. Plenty of green space near the condo for quick potty breaks and it was so nice to take him for walks down the beach, just steps from the condo. Lone wish was that the master bed had a boxspring or slightly more support. A small wish, and nothing that would detract from our overall rating. We’d stay again for sure!

Perfect little beach condo !

We had a wonderful time and couldn’t be happier with the condo! The management was easy to deal with too, very friendly and helpful. Loved the comfy bed, which is rare in rentals. It was tastefully decorated, and had good quality furnishings. (My daughter loved the fish in the bedroom and named him Gary haha). You can tell the owner cares about her guests with little touches like beach supplies, spices, games and so on. My kiddo enjoyed being able to watch her Netflix cartoons on the TV. I could have cooked anything in the wonderfully stocked kitchen, and the dishes were so cute ! I liked the Tiki as well, excellent location and loved the fireworks view. Also enjoyed the music next door while outside in the evenings, but it was quiet with the doors closed. No party atmosphere, mostly families around and everyone was respectful. The chairs on the balcony were very comfy. Beach chair rentals right out front was a nice perk too. It’s an older building but this condo was nicely renovated, and the grounds are well kept. The inside was very clean, except the shower floor corners could use a good scrubbing. The only thing I would suggest is a small broom or dust pan set for day-to-day tidying without having to break out the vacuum, and maybe a luggage stand for the closet. Also there was only one hand towel and 2 wash cloths. I imagine those things can easily get lost so just an FYI to the owner. I’m already day dreaming about coming back to this peaceful getaway ! Highly recommend!

I accidentally left with her pillow case. The bed linens need to be replaced and pillows too. We went to Wall Mart and bought new pillow cases to use. When I left I took one of hers by mistake. I need to know how to return it. She is outstanding with any concerns we had. The Toliet broke and she had a plumber there in 30 minutes. Kitchen well stocked. Furniture great! Deck furniture wonderful. We will go back!
