Perfect location: no businesses on this section. But still short drive to everything. Condo was quiet. Our rental was very clean. We've never stayed anywhere that my wife didnt at least point out something that couldve been cleaned better (i never notice). We had excellent communication. All employees on grounds were friendly. Would happily stay here again.

Exactly as Stated and Lovely
We loved the stay at the Surf and Racquet. Although the weather was spotty, we got to do everything (beach, tennis, pickleball). The condo is lovely, well appointed and clean. The view is wonderful. Having a pool right over the balcony and then tennis, then beach in your view makes the whole thing kinda interesting lol. It's a great view. The deal is wonderful too. Some caveats: this unit is in the middle corner part of the L shape of the club, so the balcony half-faces the balcony of the other unit on the L corner, a little awkward as it feels like they are in your unit. But 95% of the time there was nobody around. Although it's a surf and "racquet club", there's really just 2 tennis courts (with pickleball lines), so it's no more a racquet club than the two condos adjacent which also have tennis courts. As tennis players, we think they should take a little better care of their nets (no center straps), but the surfaces were fine we made good use of it. Also convenient that the laundry was a short walk away on the same 4th floor, not the case for other floors. And the elevators moved very fast and we rarely waited. Suggestion to the owner: might wanna include a few extra pillows rather than just 2 in the master BR since a lot of people sleep with extra pillows (e.g. me lol). We loved the stay. BTW the TV didn't connect to Netflix when we were there but we used our PC instead so didn't raise with the owner, but the WiFi was no problem and that was fine.

Perfectly Setup for a Relaxing Vacation
My family and I had a fantastic stay at this co dominion. The condo's unbeatable convenience to nearby attractions made our vacation even more enjoyable. The stunning ocean view from the condo was a true highlight, and the dedicated staff on the premises made us feel truly welcome. The condo itself had everything we needed for cooking, which was a big plus. The only downside was the pricey beach chair rental at $53.00 a day, but we found a more budget-friendly option at a nearby store. We discovered that we could get an umbrella and chairs for just $110 at the nearby Winn Dixie. Overall, our experience was relaxing, memorable, and full of positive moments.

Nice accommodations for the price
We were really pleased to find an oceanfront condo to rent for the price we paid. We enjoyed the location, as far as being close to restaurants and bars. The property itself is sort of dated and basic, but we were comfortable and it served our needs. We would definitely stay at Holiday Surf & Racquet club again.

This condo is in dire need of renovation.
The mattresses on both the sofa sleeper and the master bedroom were very old and uncomfortable. The room is right next door to the condo laundry room and right above the gym. The balcony is so close to the balcony to the left that you could have breakfast with them.
