[THE SPACE]
This 300 sq. ft. studio is best suited for 2 adults and can comfortably accommodate up to 3 adults.

The space can host up to 4 guests only if the group includes 2 adults and 2 modest kids. 4 adults would be too tight, so please consider the compact size when booking to ensure a comfortable stay.

☞This condo is located in an Oceanfront Complex, but the unit faces west toward the neighboring property, so the ocean CANNOT be seen from inside. Appreciate Panoramic Ocean Vistas from the community gazebos and wraparound decks with seating. You can also park right outside the unit for painless unloading and convenient access.

Traveling with a bigger group?
We have multiple units within the same oceanfront complex, including side-by-side units—ideal for bigger groups who want to stay close while appreciating additional space and privacy. Please inquire for availability and details.
