We spent the weekend at the resort and had such a great time! The beach was great and we saw dolphins swimming right off of the beach. I am from the east side of FL and the water, sand and wildlife are so different and enjoyable. The unit we stayed in was comfortable, clean and quiet. We had everything that we needed. We will be back again soon.

Great experience! I would stay here again. The resorts pics don’t do the place justice. It is like apartment living in a way right on the beach. Our unit was an ocean view 2 bedroom. It surpassed my expectations and it is on the quieter part of the island. Very well kept and tidy property. Our unit had a nice bright galley kitchen with basic amenities, coffee maker, pots , pans, dishes, and cooking utensils. The living room had a pull out sofa and big flatscreen TVs snd a bar. Thé lanai was very big and perfect for dining, coffee or just enjoying the gulf. Both bedrooms were great and had their own tvs. One bath had a waterfall shower and the master had a whirlpool and a 3 headed shower. Lots of towels in our unit and a washer and dryer. The beach is very beautiful and deep. You have to walk a bit in the sand to get to water. It had rained a lot so there was a giant puddle on the sand, but that’s nature. It was a few inches deep-if you aren’t inclined to walk around it to get the the water. This is a shell beach but not entirely, so your beach shoes are a must. Amazing sunsets!!!! We spent some time in the hot tub in the early evenings. The pool is not huge but nice. The staff was so nice! They called up to see if everything was good and introduced themselves, welcoming and letting us know that they were there if we needed them.
