Much Needed Getaway

This South Seas Cottage was all we could have hoped for. As soon as we walked in, we were very impressed with the condo. It was spacious, clean and the updates mentioned in the listing were of high quality. We could easily assume the owners take pride and care of their cottage. They were very helpful in making sure all our questions and needs were met.
We spent a great deal of our time relaxing on the lanai, whether it was enjoying our morning coffee or the sunsets with a glass of wine. The storage facility was full of gear and toys for our use. We especially enjoyed the beach cruisers to bike to the local restaurants and shops.
We would highly recommend "Holy Smoke", the BBQ restaurant just inside the resort gates. Casual dining, ordered at the counter with different nightly specials that brought us back multiple nights. We spent a lot of time cruising the bikes down Andy Rosse Lane which had various restaurants with live music, great atmosphere and a variety of food.
My husband wanted to do some fishing and the owner recommended a fishing guide named Captain Joey Burnsed. We went on a 4 hour excursion throughout the Back Bay and it was awesome! I caught a 30 lb shark! Very knowledgeable of the spots, different local species and had no problem doing the dirty work for us.
We will be recommending this condo to all of our friends and plan to come back next time with the kids. They would love the beach, shelling and the pool. We couldn't stop thinking of how much they would enjoy seeing the manatees floating around in the local marinas.
We stayed for 6 days but could have stayed much longer. We'll be back for sure.
