We had a wonderful week at this condo! If we weren't having our coffee on the beach to watch the sunrise, then we were sitting on the balcony enjoying breakfast and the beautiful view. In April, the sun was rising just at the corner of the building, so you can still enjoy it without leaving the condo. The unit is spacious with a full kitchen, which we really appreciated. We were able to make nice meals, and pack our cooler bags with picnic lunches for our daily adventures. Having a full fridge/freezer, dishwasher, and a washer and dryer make it so easy to pack light and really enjoy the vacation.
We found the master bed comfy, and loved that we could hear the surf when we opened the window. And what a wonderful breeze when we opened the 2nd bedroom window! The upstairs full bathroom actually has a huge double shower, and the downstairs full bathroom has a small shower stall. We appreciated having two full bathrooms with showers instead of tubs.
The condo is a 2-story townhouse, located on the 2nd floor of the building, so there's exterior steps up to the 2nd level of the building where you find the condo's lower level main entrance. On the first level, you'll find the smaller bathroom, kitchen, living area, washer/dryer, and the balcony (did I mention it has a wonderful view of the ocean??). A set of stairs leads you up to both bedrooms and the larger full bathroom on the 2nd level of the condo.
The grounds are beautiful with lots of colorful hibiscus and fragrant hedges. There are two heated pools, but we only utilized the pool just outside the condo. And yes, it was warm! We stayed the first full week of April, and the pool was at least 83-85 degrees!
We loved the proximity to Matanzas Inlet barely a mile down the road, and Washington Oaks just a few miles further. Flagler Beach is an easy ride, as is St. Augustine Beach and downtown areas. We found that taking the 206 across to US-1 made it really easy to go north to our favorite Publix, into downtown St.Aug, or just to hop on 95 to go where ever! The condo is really a great central location to get just about any where with relative ease.
The owner was super friendly, accommodating, and so helpful. Would love to stay here again. Thanks Barb!
