Dee Dee,
I've traveled a lot, and this is one of the best beach vacations I've ever had! The condo was lovely...decor was soothing, luxurious, and perfect for relaxing. We especially liked the little extras you provided, like the spices in the kitchen and the well-stocked cooking items and dishes, the ironing board, the beach towels. I never thought I'd find a bed more comfortable than mine, but the one in your condo was "dreamy!" I could go on and on! We also liked the location within the building itself...ground floor and in a quiet area. The pool was just a short walk, and beautiful.
The restaurants you suggested were great. We went to several you suggested; "Another Broken Egg" for breakfast or brunch was superb! We ate there three times and even bought their special coffee cups for remembering that great food! Bud and Ally's (seafood) in Seaside is a white tablecloth restaurant that we loved for an elegant evening, and the crabcakes were wonderful. From the smallest hamburger joints to the most elegant, the meals we had were all very good. Something we noticed while shopping and dining... everyone is so friendly!
We shopped quite a bit at Seaside and nearby small boutiques, and bought a few things that we thought were special...and on sale. We didn't go to the outlets nearby, as we're not big on that.
Even though we had rain a few days while there, we managed to get to the beach several times. We went to Seaside and walked that white, sugary sand for miles, looking at the ocean and all the beach homes. We also went to Rosemary Beach. The rest of the time we drove through the little streets at Rosemary Beach and Seaside looking at all the lovely beach homes.
Because we're older, and not athletically inclined, we didn't take advantage of any of the sports available, such as tennis, bike riding, fishing, etc. Next time, I might want to try the bikes, though!
Thanks again for providing a wonderful getaway for us.
