This beachfront property offers access to a patio, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is set less than 1 km from Gulfside Beach. We loved the wonderful apartment and the amazing view. The place was so clean and well equipped for everything we needed. You were so helpful when we called when first arrived.
