FABULOUS. My 3 kids and I stayed here for a birthday celebration weekend and it was perfect. It's not entirely clear from the pictures how close your access to the beach is, so I'll explain: There is a charming little boardwalk path that runs between the dunes and the condos that takes you right to the beach -- it's a very short, easy walk. At the entrance to the beach, there is a little foot shower for rinsing your feet on your way out -- such a nice convenience! The beach was never crowded while we were there, and we found sand dollars galore! One note of caution, if you plan to cook: The fire alarms are apparently very sensitive, which will set off an alarm for the whole building. We didn't set off an alarm while we were there, but another unit did, and we all had to exit the building for a few minutes. It wasn't a big deal at all, but the guy who triggered the alarm said he was just cooking some oil in a pan and it got a little smokey. So, just a heads-up for menu-planning purposes! Overall, we loved our stay and would gladly return.
