We purchased our first unit five years ago. We have a beautiful beachfront two bedroom/two bathroom unit on the ground level. We love returning every year bringing our family and friends. We are "welcomed home" by all the staff when we arrive. We meet new people as well as old friends from years past. The staff is always friendly. There... More
