    Great destination and amazing experience. Everything was exactly as listed, access to the beach was amazing and all amenities were easily accessible. Only minor issue was the broken coffee maker but if that is the only thing that I am criticizing then it shows how great the place is. Highly recommend and would book again.

    This is our second time staying at this property. We love being so close to the ocean. There were sea turtles swimming in front of the condo all week. Barry & Pat were friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay again.

    If you are a beach lover this is the place for you! I had a broken foot so not having to walk far was key! The patio is on the beach so you can stay there or walk 10 steps to be in the sand! Unbelievable variety and abundance of birds if you enjoy that also. Host was very approachable and responsive.

    This property is located smack dab on the water. At high tide you can literally spit into the water by leaning over the railing surrounding the deck. The difference between high and low tide is striking and fascinating. The views from the deck and inside are spectacular. If you come to enjoy sun and moon rises, youre in the right place. The convenience of this property cant be overstated. No schlepping of beach equipment to the beach. Just grab your chair and take it a few steps to the water line. Need to grab a snack? Walk back into your unit just a few steps. The stretch of beach is pretty cut off from the road, so the beach is almost empty all day, even on weekends. Just an incredible location. The unit itself is very nice, the kitchen is new and the bathrooms are updated and pleasant. Theres a bbq right in the deck and nothing compares to preparing and eating your dinner while overlooking the beach and water. The layout of the unit is unique. Master bedroom is on the second floor, its spacious and offers full view of beach. It leads up to the third floor loft with two singles. Everything was very clean and neat and very comfortable. I give the unit a two thumbs up. If youre looking for a spectacular location, this is it.

    We always love to stay at Matanzas Inlet. It is a beautiful beach with white sand. The condo itself is very nice with plenty of room for family. The upstairs bedroom has a comfortable king bed and is very roomy. The spiral stairs can be a challenge for older people but I think it adds character to the place. Thank you for allowing us to stay!
