The stay was awesome and we will definitely be back in the future!
The hotel was clean, the hosts were friendly, and the location was convenient. I liked being able to stay on the beach and walk down from the room on to the boardwalk straight to the beach. I also loved the room and how it was laid out. I think all was good! I did not see anything that needed to be updated at this time.

Great little condo for my husband and me! Everything was clean and as pictured. Great view of the ocean from the balcony and saw lots of dolphins every day during our stay! Close driving distance to restaurants and also a Target and Winn Dixie for groceries/supplies. Listing says this unit will accommodate 5 people but unless 3 of those 5 people are children, it would be a tight fit for more than two adults. There is only one bathroom and one bedroom with king size bed and then pullouts in the couch and chair in the living room. We enjoyed our stay!

Melissa, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. We're thrilled you and your husband enjoyed the condo, the cleanliness, and the beautiful ocean views, including the daily dolphin sightings! We're glad the location was convenient for your needs, and we hope to welcome you back again soon for another enjoyable visit. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.

Wonderful week in Paradise
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Holiday Surf and Racquet Club! The condo is nicely updated and has super comfortable furniture! The king bed was extremely comfortable and I’m very picky about those things! ? The hosts even had beach chairs/toys/umbrellas available for use. The kitchen was very well equipped and appliances all in good working condition. Only drawback was the coffee maker is only a Keurig, not a drip coffee maker and we had brought coffee and filters, but that was easily remedied! Other than that everything was perfect for our stay! We will definitely be back!

Had a great time.
It was as good as we hoped. Clean, great view, very comfortable. Could have used a coffee pot, it’s a bit far to simply walk to the nearest coffee shop. We didn’t rent a car so any food or necessities we used Uber which was fine except for a morning coffee.

Absolutely amazing location and beach
We had a fantastic time staying here. The linens on one of the pull out sofa beds was dirty but the owner got us clean ones. The view is amazing and the location is great too. You simply cannot beat being on the beach. Check in and check out was a breeze. Just as a heads up for anyone else, the walk to the harbor water taxi is a bit far. The beach service at the building was great. We paid for all of our days when we got there and tagged an umbrella and chairs at 7am when they setup. At the end of our stay we could definitely see ourselves coming back every year.

Seasoned Air bnb traveler here. This was a GREAT stay. Pictures are accurate, unit is clean and updated, all basics provided, easy check in/out. Heated pool was a nice touch with the lower temps this spring break season. BEAUTIFUL view from balcony. Location is not far from restaurants and activities. Staff on site was friendly and pleasant.
