This is a well-maintained, pretty little condo looking right out over the ocean waves. You’ll enjoy four-post beds, stainless steel appliances, bamboo floors, and plenty of spacious living.

The beach is likely to be your priority, but don’t miss out on either of their refreshing pools or large hot tub. That’s certainly a nice way to cap off any happy day spent under the sun.

Soft fluffy bedding under sailboat-shaped windows will rock you gently to sleep each night where you’ll be met with dreams of soft, flowing ocean waves. This is a five-star setting - morning, noon, and night.
