The property is clean and well taken care of. The walk to the pool and distance to the beach are great and ideal for grandparents and young children. We spent our evenings on the balcony overlooking the ocean. We booked it again for next year!

This was our annual family reunion/vacation. This condo was just perfect in every way. There was no need to look for fun elsewhere- the pool and beach were more than enough to keep us busy. The views from the condo were absolutely beautiful! Loved the kitchen and we sure used it a bunch! Thank you for sharing this beautiful place!

Beautiful Property

We enjoyed our Thanksgiving holiday at this property. The property manager was very accessible and helpful. The pool was not heated and there was no access to a fitness facility but we still found plenty to do in the area. We played tennis and the kids enjoyed bike rides. Would rent the property again:)

Third visit here; love this property. Had a couple of issues this stay with a leaky refrigerator and, more annoying, getting locked out of property due to battery going dead. Shouldn’t have happened but I’m sure issues will be resolved for next guest.

Beautiful, clean, and comfortable condo with excellent views of the ocean. The kitchen was well-equipped with everything that we needed to make meals. The pool and beach were just a few feet away and peaceful, with little crowds. The check-in process went smoothly. Excellent communication from Laily. She was responsive when we had a question or concern. We would stay here again. Thanks!

Great Condo!

We definitely enjoyed our stay at this condo. The views are amazing! The condo was clean and peaceful. Great communication with the host. Turtle Dunes condos are at the end of the Omni area so it wasn’t crowded on the beach where we were. The whole town was charming. Lots of amazing restaurants and shops. Highly recommended!

Girl's Trip

We enjoyed the condo and the beautiful views. A big disappoinment was the pool was closed during our entire visit due to an issue with the chemicals. I understand things happen. However, part of the reason we selected the condo was easy access to both the pool and beach. The pool was also larger than other units we considered. I asked for a concession on the price as the pool was an important part of our selection process. A price concession was not granted. Hence, the 3 star rating as we did not receive all that we paid for.
