Easter Break 2025

Check-in was easy. Parking was abundant. Elevators always worked. Loved the oceanfront condo. Plenty of utensil/dishes/pots and pans. Our grandkids loved the beach being so close. Our queen bed was a little soft but it's all in sleeping preference.

Great getaway!

We booked this trip last minute when a hurricane canceled our original trip. The condo was perfect, right on the beach and we were able to walk to restaurants and the Shrimp Festival that was going on. We definitely want to come back!

Driftwood 5F

Our stay was one of the best. Condo is laid out really well. And the kitchen is one of the most stocked I’ve ever seen. Kitchen is small but still enough room for 2 people to cook in. The balcony and view were great. You won’t be disappointed. Also updates to bedding and wall paint color have been done that aren’t on the website. They look great and add to the condo. We were very pleased with our stay. Will definitely go back!!

5F

We had a great stay at Driftwood 5F. It’s a great condo. The furnishings were good and everything was clean and ready to go. The bathrooms are in need of a little updating. A walk in shower would be a big advantage. But overall great condo we enjoyed for the week. We will likely book again in the future.

Beautiful location

The condo building is a bit older but well maintained. The specific condo was good. The living room furniture is uncomfortable and could use replacing. Large TV was great. The central location is great. We walked to most restaurants. The beach is right out the building. We often saw dolphins in the water.

This property smelled terrible! Musty, molded bad smell. The condo was so outdated. The couch and loveseat was dirty and smelled terrible. The smell was so bad that everything I brought home smelled terrible.

This property was clean and very nice. We had a small non-emergency maintenance need and it was fixed immediately with no fuss or bother and minimal effort on our end. The beds are incredibly comfortable! We would absolutely book this condo again.

Excellent location ON THE BEACH !!

Location, location, location!!! From the back door of the building to the beach is only about 50 steps!! Beautiful views from the deck & master bedroom. We slept with our balcony door open and listened to the sound of the waves all night long. Unit was clean & had plenty of hot water. Decor photos in the listing are accurate. They give fair notice about no extras or condiments, so be sure to bring your own soap, napkins, tp, coffee filters, salt/pepper, etc. Building was quiet, family atmosphere. We would definitely stay here again.

Great condo!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The location of the condo was great. The beach was beautiful and clean. Nice pool and outdoor area. Our kids loved it, and was a wonderful 10th anniversary trip for the wife and I. There were a couple minor cleaning items missed when we arrived, but the property manager was quick to respond and remedy the situation. Overall, we were very happy with our stay. Would love to go back and stay at the same place!

We had the best beach vacation

We got to watch the dolphins in the morning from our balcony. We saw more dolphins from the balcony then on the dolphins excursion. Never heard the neighbors through the walls. We went deep sea fishing, zoo and dolphins excursion with the complimentary free tickets. Had a blast on all 3. Absolutely will come back to visit and bring the family. We had 2 of my kids, grandma and my sister. Everyone had a great time.
