Sterling Sands was great little getaway spot. Condo itself was clean and tidy with comfy beds etc. We had some rainy days, so maybe think about putting some board games or cards in the unit in case of bad weather. Other than that, it was great and a good value we felt.

I like the fact that it was a peaceful place. It had all of the simple everyday thing extra towels, cleaning supplies, etc. The view was great. Easy access to the pool and beach. There is nothing to dislike.

Working with RealJoy was great, responsive and thorough. The unit was a good size for our family of 4. The bunk beds in the second room were perfect for our kids and helped open up a smaller room. The kitchen had new countertops and appliances and the decor was calming and nicely done. The view from the 7th floor balcony was exceptional! Really loved the private beach access and beach service (two chairs and umbrella) that come with the unit, a nice plus! We will be returning in the future!

The beech wasn’t as beautiful as it had been in recent years; However, as we were leaving, the blue water began to emerge. The condo is small (perfect for 2) and a lovely view from the 7th floor.

this is even better than the pictures! a few steps from the pool/spa and the private beach, with beach service! the view is amazing and the walls of mirrors make it easy to view the scenery from almost any spot in this space! felt very much at home and couldn't have asked for better! the kitchen is equipped with just about everything you may need, the beds are comfy, linens are clean and fresh, but nothing beats the miraculous view from the balcony! even spotted a few dolphins cruising the waters while drinking coffee and listening to the waves crash. couldn't be happier!

Absolutely perfect location! Super close to everything. The bathrooms were a little outdated and there was only one roll of toilet paper per bathroom, but overall am excellent place to stay. The rooms were nice and spacious and the view was incredible! Huge bonus was chair service was included. I would definitely recommend!!
