Where to stay!

This was BY FAR the best condo we have ever stayed in! Exceptionally large kitchen with full sized appliances.  NO ELEVATORS.  The entire complex is gated and right on the beach.  They have a pool and a game room.  The view was absolutely breathtaking!

We are staying here this year.  We haven't stayed in this specific unit yet but we have stayed in several adjoining it.   It is very private and directly across from the Winn Dixie.  You have direct access to the beach from your condo.  My favorite part is the balcony off of the master!

This is a great place to stay if you don't mind elevators or high rises.  Very budget friendly.  We stayed here several years ago and our only complaint was being so high up.  The kids didn't love that.  My favorite part was being within walking distance to Pineapple Willies!

This particular condo would be fit for the social butterflies.  TONS of amenities.  There's even a small tiki restaurant by the pool.  The one year we stayed here it was pretty crowded but we also went mid July.  The kids loved all they had to offer.  It is also very close to hammerhead freds!

Beach vacation necessities!

We use this pop up tent EVERY YEAR.  It is plenty big for our family of four and allows us to spend hours at the beach without getting crispy.

This little gem is the “shoulder saver.”  We throw the cooler, chairs, tent and toys in here and roll it down to the beach.  It is especially helpful on the way back when we are all exhausted.

I hate spending a ton of money on beach towels because they always get lost/ dirty.  I found these on amazon a few years ago and just order a new set every year.
