My wife and I, along with our 4 children and two spouses and 5 grandchildren, rented both bayside units for our stay from July 3 - 10, 2021. We had a fabulous time. We were very pleased with everything about the bayside units. Check-in was easy (Cindy even let us drop off our luggage in the garage around noon, prior to our 4:00 entry) and everything was clean and tidy when we entered. The combined units comfortably accommodated all 13 of us, with my wife and I scoring the upper level master bedroom in the front unit, which was huge! As stated in the description, that bedroom/suite could have easily held one or two children in addition to us. My wife and I so enjoyed waking up each morning looking directly at palm trees and the bay marina. The front unit living area and kitchen was wonderful, with a well stocked kitchen, bayside views and easy access to the bay beach. It was to go-to place for family members from both units.
The location was the biggest highlight. The front unit sits right on the bayside beach, separated only by the very active sidewalk between the patio and the sand. We loved seeing the eclectic mix of happy people strolling, jogging, biking, skateboarding, scootering, etc. past our patio, enjoying the beach life. The patio table had a removeable extension and it comfortably seated 8 adults, and an additional side table worked for the kids. The grill was large and clean. The adults especially loved lingering around the dinner table sipping an extra glass of wine as our kids/grandkids played happily in the sand just 20 feet away.
The bay beach proved to be a delight. Despite it being a marina, the water was clean and clear with a sandy bottom , perfect for playing, swimming and paddleboarding. The walk to the ocean beach, where we went every day, was quite easy being just about 3 blocks away.
The supply of beach toys was beyond what we expected. Between the two units there were about 8 - 10 beach chairs, 5 or 6 boogie boards, a paddleboard, paddleball paddles and balls, many plastic sand buckets, shovels, etc., for the kids, and more!
Cindy was a very responsive host. She responded to our queries promptly and pleasantly, leading up to and during our stay.
This was a much anticipated vacation for our family and Cindy's bayside units delivered big-time. We loved it all!
