Close to beach, shops & restaurants
Enjoyed the short walk to beach to watch sunrise nearly every day & daily beach walks.I really liked the fact that parking was private just for that condo complex and that it was gated!The condo is an older building but this condo was well kept & well furnished.

We enjoyed our stay. The place was equipped with most everything you need to cook. Clean,other than the mildew smell. Should do more about that,because its a great place otherwise. Close to everything. We didn't care for the construction right nextdoor, but we get it,given the season.

Condo needs some tlc
Condo needs somatic new front door and new door casing the reason I chose that place because it had a pool that should be heated for the amount of money we paid to rent that place I didn’t like the texting game I had to use to talk to the property manager

Great home away from home.
The unit was within walking distance of restaurants, bars and ice cream (I like to walk). The pier was a short walk also and I watched the sunset from the pier. There were lots of surfers to watch and the sunrise was beautiful! The unit was perfect except I did not remember my login for the TV (streaming only). I did watch Netflix as I remembered that login. I got very lucky with the weather. No rain/only beautiful Florida days! The pool was lovely! The picture does not show this unit and I was surprised that the path over the dunes goes right to the beach! Loved it!

Great place and location
Close to everything especially the beach! My only thing was it was listed at beach front and it was not. Now it was on the same side as the beach and was extremely easy to access! Less than 2 minutes to get to the sand. I would stay here again!

From the pictures lead me to believe the unit faced towards the ocean. Other than that great location and ease of access to the beach and other local attractions.

Beach Bungalow in Jax Beach
Great location to restaurants and beach. Quiet neighborhood, sparse traffic, bike friendly. Property was small but very efficient and comfortable;; well stocked kitchen. Would have liked to have been able to watch live college//prof. sports on TV.

A great find!
This this little beach bungalow is great! It’s clean and a 1 minute walk to the beach and is perfect for a couple of people. The place has a full kitchen with everything necessary for cheffing it up. There is also a charcoal grill for grilling. The pool is clean and nice and there a couple hoses conveniently placed for when you come in from the beach. The property is close to Margaritaville and Lynches Irish Pub which has live music on most nights. This will be my number one selection for when I visit Jax. Super stoked on this great find!

Overall great experience
Starting with the less than desirables:
- the listing did not make it clear that I was making a reservation with a third party property management company. This made communication during the booking process confusing
- the confirmation emails contained outdated information regarding the check in process. It was was very easy but the outdated information was not helpful.
- the unit is very very small but truthful to photos shown in listing. The bathroom toilet is finicky with flushing and the shower does not drain well
- one of the three a/c units failed during our stay and the property manager offered to have it fixed immediately! Having two other units, we decided to wait.
- there was no toiletries. This was a little inconvenient as we were staying for a week.
Overall our stay was a great experience! The condo is within a gated community with a direct path to the beach and pool area. While there is no view of the beach from the unit, it’s easy access to it was great. The unit was very clean and true to photos!
Thanks for a lovely stay!

Overall it was a great experience. I wish there was more toiletries and kitchen supplies/garbage bags. The pictures are a bit deceiving on the size. Also if you aren’t sharing a bedroom with the other person the bathroom situation isn’t ideal

Great stay at the beach
I was looking for a last-minute getaway for me, my husband, our daughter (4 years old) and son (15 months). So happy we found this place! The location is amazing and conveniently located. The property manager was friendly and made our stay so easy and comfortable. The place is tiny but it was cozy for our little family of four. We put the baby's pack & play in the walk-in closet and squeezed the three of us into the queen bed (I wish it was a King bed but otherwise the place was perfect). The pool and beach are steps away and we loved being able to walk to restaurants and shops. Highly recommend!

Best friends beach retreat
I had my best friend join me for a sunshine retreat while I was receiving treatment at Mayo Clinic for a week. It was the perfect size for a couple or two girls. Freshly renovated and every little detail thought through! Super cute “beach” decor, comfortable bed and couch. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes if you choose to cook. There really is not a patio or outdoor area other than the parking lot to sit out which did not bother us because we went out each night but if you choose to sit out the common area furniture by the pool over looking the beach is beautiful! The property is gated but the area is residential and did not appear to be unsafe. The property is well maintained and the pool area is simple but very nice and clean. Steps across the dune to the beautiful beach! Only a couple miles to the dining and shops of Atlantic beach. Great week, perfect little spot.
