Here's what it's like to stay at "Tip'Sea Turtle"....

When you arrive, you'll walk right in to the living room that boasts a comfortable commercial grade queen sleeper sofa & a fun printed accent chair for lounging. While we don't have a traditional dining table, guests can enjoy breakfast bar seating for meals or a workspace. With a full wall of sliding glass doors encompassing the living room the natural light is incredible! We've added a brand new Smart Tv with Cox Cable offered for our guests convenience. Guests can feel free to login to their own media (Netflix, etc) while traveling as well-we just ask that guests logout at departure.

The kitchen area has an open concept to the living room for enjoying your meals and time together. We've stocked this kitchen with a refrigerator (with ice maker), dishwasher, electric stovetop, and a large toaster oven. PLEASE know that we do NOT have a standard oven, it is a cooktop ONLY. We also have dishes, pots & pans, silverware, utensils, crockpot, blender, and a traditional coffee maker & Keurig! If you plan to cook during your trip, we encourage you to bring along any spices, condiments, & oils you may need as we do not provide any perishable or non perishable items. We have an easy to use high chair, cutlery, cups, and plastic dishes for our tiny travelers as well!

Directly off the living area you can find the bedroom with a cozy Serta King bed with an abundance of pillows for a comfortable nights sleep. A pack and play is in the condo for all families with little ones traveling-one less item to pack! A smart tv here is perfect for relaxing in bed watching your favorite shows at the end of the day. The closet stores two twin memory foam mattresses that can be brought out (with linens) if needed for sleeping accommodations.

The bathroom offers a standup shower, soft towels, and plenty of space to get ready in. We've designed this space with the comforts of home & not a cramped & cold hotel feel!

Our laundry room offers guests the convenience of a stackable washer and dryer for use during your stay. No need to visit the laundromat!

Guest Access:
A few important things to keep in mind:
-Due to this being a residential complex, noise ordinances are at 10pm sharp. We do not permit excessive noise, parties, illegal activity, or disturbances at any time.
-While we do host groups 25 years or younger at our discretion, we must be notified before your confirmed booking. We do not host one night bookings for ages 25 and younger at any time.
-Smoking is not permitted on the balcony or near the building at any time.
-Any stay that a house trained pet will be included in MUST be disclosed when booking, as a pet fee of $50 is required. We do not accept more than 2 dogs, and pets must be crated when unattended and cleaned up after inside and out. Pets are not permitted on furniture at any time. ADA recognized service animals are not charged a pet fee, but ESA (Emotional Support Animals) are still subject to pet fee. False information regarding a service animal is against the law in our state, so we appreciate your honesty in this matter.
-We are NOT beachfront, you can't see the beach, you can't stick your toes in the sand from the front door, and you do have to get in your vehicle to drive to the PUBLIC beach access that is 3/4 mile from our condo. We do not have a gated or private beach access at this location.
-This is a mixed community with residential & short term guests alike. While the gated community itself is a "community in transition" with updates to the exterior being improved steadily, we do not have control over any "look" of the exterior of our condo. We have gone above & beyond to create a beautiful & cozy space INSIDE for our guests enjoyment!
