Beach getaway

Diane left no detail out to assure a comfortable stay at her well appointed, level in condo at Seascape Resort. She anticipated every need, including snacks to enjoy. The accessibility to both the beach and swimming pool, as well as to the grass area, made my 4 & 7 yr old grandsons & their parents very happy! I definitely recommend this rental without any hesitation.
