🌊 Direct Gulf-front location — a private beach path leads to the sand in under 3 minutes
🌅 Rooftop terrace with custom putting green, hammock, neon sign, and Gulf of America views
🍹 Two private Gulf-facing balconies — morning coffee and sunset cocktails with waves below
🕹️ Two full-size arcade machines in the bunk room (NBA Jam 4-player + 500+ game cabinet)
☕ Dedicated barista-quality coffee bar — grinder, steamer, frother, to-go cups
🥐 Voilà-Merci French Bakery right across the street — exceptional pastries, real coffee, the best brownie
🛒 Convenience store next door for sunscreen, drinks, and anything you forgot to pack

🎨 THE ENTRY
Step through the front door and you're already somewhere. A custom surf and mermaid mural anchors the entry foyer — the first sign this isn't your average beach rental.
🕹️ THE BUNK ROOM
A full-over-full bunk bed with a twin pullout trundle sleeps up to three — full-size beds, not narrow bunks. The room has its own wing of the condo with a dedicated hall bath directly across (tub/shower combo, sandpiper tile art on the walls), so whoever's in here is completely self-contained from the rest of the group.
Two full-size arcade cabinets: NBA Jam in 4-player mode and the Legends Ultimate CE-HD with 500+ built-in games. The wallpaper is unapologetically fun. But the beds are genuinely comfortable for adults — this room gets claimed just as often by friends on a group trip as by families with kids. Nobody asks to switch.
🍳 THE LIVING AREA & KITCHEN
Wide, bright, and facing the Gulf. The 70" Roku TV is mounted above the fireplace — positioned so you can watch it and the Gulf at the same time. Two oceanfront balconies open from this space.
The kitchen is stocked to a level that will genuinely surprise you: full-size refrigerator, electric stove, dishwasher, microwave, air fryer, slow cooker, waffle iron, rice cooker, electric kettle — plus every pot, pan, and utensil for a real multi-day meal rotation. In-unit washer and dryer, detergent included.
☕ Separate from the kitchen: a dedicated coffee bar with Keurig duo, milk frother, coffee grinder, milk steamer, sweeteners, creamers, and to-go cups. Real café setup, every morning.
👑 THE PRIMARY SUITE
King bed in luxury linens facing the Gulf. A private door opens directly onto one of the oceanfront balconies — fall asleep to waves, wake up to a Gulf sunrise. Ensuite bath with double vanity and glass walk-in shower.
🌅 THE LOFT & ROOFTOP
A spiral staircase leads to the loft — queen bed, Roku TV, porthole window, and a private door to the rooftop. The best commute in the building.
The rooftop: custom putting green along the rail, a hammock, lush green living wall, "Hello Sunshine" neon sign, Adirondack chairs, loungers, and bench seating — all facing the Gulf of America. Come up at golden hour. You'll understand.
