"We celebrated my best friend’s birthday and we had an amazing time!! The view was spectacular, we were close to everything, the people were so neighborly we couldn’t have asked for a better location. The only downside was the renovations around the property, but that’s temporary. We plan on making another trip to this property in the future to see it fully remodeled. We had such an amazing experience and plan on using Real Joy again!!"

"Islander 302 - Great stay. Room was clean and exactly as in the photos. We used the gym, pickle ball and shuffleboard facilities and they were very nice. The only possible negative thing I can think of is that one of the burners on the stove was out and the clocks didn’t work, but who cares what time it is on vacation anyway! I would definitely stay there again."

"Family Vacation - Great location! Returning Holiday Isle visitor, first time Islander stay. The only complaint I have is our keys were not ready to use/activated after pickup at off-site office location. However, as soon as I called customer service they said to take keys to reception to get activated. Overall great stay. Great gulf view. Clean. Would recommend"

"Beautiful Views - This property was easy to rent and the communication was great. The views of the beach were amazing! It is a quick walk across a wooden boardwalk and you’re right on the beach. The condo is older, but has everything we needed and was very clean. It was private and all access used the key, so the beach wasn’t over crowded.
We’ll definitely rent here again. RealJoy vacation rentals was the property management group for our condo."
