Updated Comfort
It was our first time in Florida, the tropical storm at the beginning of our stay kept us from doing some of the things we had planned, we decided on a whim to stay in the area longer and after a long search for a spot to stay at (our current place was all sold out) my wife came across this charmer. The price was right, for a last minute booking, so we booked quickly, and we were not dissapointed! Recently updated, everything was brand new inside and out. The area was quiet, close to the beaches and very comfortable. If it's the size you need and available on your dates, book it, don't hesitate. It's exactly what it shows!! We are planning our next trip and this spot is at the top of list!!
