No price increase since 2021! Low fees. Welcome to our condo, “Beach Skybox”, Admiral’s Row 307 at HHI Beach &Tennis Resort. We have the best view and experience of the beach and ocean on the island. We design our condo to take advantage of this spectacular panoramic view. You will will enjoy the ever changing moods of the beach and ocean, from very calm with whispering waves, to mystic colors on a foggy day, to a moonlit night with stars, to a disturbed ocean with high winds and roaring waves. You will experience, see, hear and feel the beach and ocean in all its glorious dimensions.
We have a minimum of seven day stay, Sunday to Sunday, during summer months. Sunday is a more leisurely day on the island. Traveling on the road is less congested as well. Although the maximum capacity is four adults and two children, but note that oceanfront condos are small. So, please plan accordingly. The condo is most suitable for couples or a family of four. Please note that the resort has a gate fee of $35 per vehicle per stay. So, let us know if you have more than one vehicle.
Everything is new, from the luxury vinyl floor, balcony carpet, to all new appliances, beds, furniture and furnishings. All electrical outlets and switches are replaced. The heating/cooling system and ductwork is thoroughly upgraded and cleaned. Our building sticks out over the dunes, as close to the beach and ocean as possible. Two boardwalks serve Admiral’s Row. The boardwalk on the right is short and flat and just steps around the corner of the building entrance. It is the closest and easiest access to the beach anywhere. The boardwalk on the left is also very short and just steps away, but has a few steps up and down over the dunes. There is a pool at Admiral’s Row. Smaller but less crowded than the main pool in front of Ocean Villas. Some of the free activities at the resort include two pools, tennis courts, pickle ball courts, fitness center, playground, catch and release pond, basketball. From mid-June to mid-August, the resort offers free family activities around the main pool from Mondays to Thursdays. On-site bicycle rental is available to take advantage of the beach and one of the best bike trail towns on the east coast. E-bikes are not allowed at the resort. There are three restaurants, a beach bar/ice cream restaurant, Jamaica Joe’z by the pool and a sports bar, Coco Nutz at the convention center.
