Family week

Four families fit perfectly. We had a great time, and we loved sitting on the porch. We got to see a huge storm come in!! Sweet turtles and baby ducks in the pond under us. We rented a golf cart to help get us to and from the beach/clubhouse. We love that clubhouse so we could use the pool and bathroom. The Tiki bar there was great for a quick lunch. The elevator is super helpful when we have groceries or luggage. The owner responds very quickly if I had any questions. Will definitely stay again!!

Wonderful!

Well stocked kitchen. Towels and linens provided. Great location. My granddaughter was pregnant but it was easy to drive her down to the club house to use the pool or beach -only a one minute drive with plenty of parking. Owner was very prompt in answering any questions. It was great to be able to take our dog along!

Perfect family week

We loved everything about our week at Turtle Watch, from hanging out on the balcony, playing virtual golf on the tv, real golf nearby, lots of beach time and fishing, great food from the many nearby restaurants and also fresh seafood we prepared in the well-equipped kitchen. The beach club is a favorite hangout and we enjoyed lunch at the tiki bar several times. One night, when there was a 2 and a half hour wait at Sharky's, we were able to walk in to the restaurant at the beach club, where we enjoyed an amazing oceanfront meal. The four bedrooms and four bathrooms gave us and our grown children plenty of space to spread out and relax.

It was so lovely to stay a block away from the ocean! Mother nature was not very cooperative, but my dog and I tried to walk the beach every day. Tripp was a very responsive host, and we will try and go there again!

Nice Space, Lots of room!

We have been staying at OIB for over 35 years and have outgrown our usual place when all the kids and grandkids come. We stay for 2 weeks for the first time ever and it was great. The location was a little further from the beach than what we are used to and with as many as 7 adults and 2 children being able to take all of our chairs, umbrellas and a large cooler was a little more difficult than usual. Plus having to take them up and down stairs at the beach access was a daily chore both going and coming. Our usual place has a beach access that has a ramp that helps a lot. Unlike our usual spot, this location DOES have an elevator which helped to mitigate the distance and all the steps at the beach access. The condo itself was very nice. Enough room for all of us and the added entertainment of being able to watch the turtles and the alligator that lives in the pond off of our balcony. All in all it was a great 2 weeks and a great space.

Great condominium, area. Only issues not a well stock kitchen, no hand mixer and limited pots and pans, casserole dishes and limited cooking utensils. Dining room chairs pretty wobbly, looks like an attempt was made to clue them. Pretty scary to sit on them & no one in our party was larger than 220lbs. Suggest they be replaced

Nice place

This was a great place with a good location. I had difficulty getting in touch with the property manager but the owner was great and very responsive. Only downside was the cleaning people did not clean well, floors were dirty and found 3 pills (on the floors in different room) which could have been bad if my kids found them but that is no fault of the owner. Would definitely stay here again.

Tons of fun

This Is the second year in a row that we have stayed at this location both times, we have really enjoyed it. Beach access is very close and enjoyed easy access to the ocean. Even though the beach side pool is a little farther away, it's still very accessible and enjoyable. Our family had another great year!
