Beach Glass Retreat - Pool! Boardwalk to Beach!
Enjoy the simple life at Beach Glass by the Sea, conveniently located in the golf cart zone between 11th Street and the beach. Private community Boardwalk for a short 5 minute walk to the sand at beach marker 5. Enjoy the sunset from our 1st Floor patio overlooking the shared Pool. This fully rebuilt Condo offers a well-stocked Kitchen and all the comforts of home. Want more space? We also rent the condo next door, book both together to have two private spaces, while being close by!
Good to know
One of the things guests love about this property is the two separate baths. Private bedroom with Queen bed plus a sleeper sofa (best for kids, not adults) in the Living Room and two full bathrooms make this a great spot for couples or families. The Kitchen offers plenty of prep space, with a drip and pod coffee maker, microwave, refrigerator and pantry storage. Walk out the back patio to take a dip in our community pool, or walk straight across the street to our shared private boardwalk to access the beach. Location is everything in Port A and we are located right by the best coffee shops, restaurants, and you can easily get to most places you want to be using a golf cart. Close enough to walk out to the sand making it easy to go back and forth for snack refills and bathroom breaks. We have an excellent cleaning service that prepares the property before your arrival to make sure it is clean and sanitized and that you have the basics you need, like toilet paper, a roll of paper towels, clean linens and bath towels. Our cleaner takes a lot of pride in making sure things are ready for your arrival. Our Condo is a single bedroom, but we offer a sleeper sofa in the Living Room for extra guests. I recommend the sleeper sofa primarily for small people, is has an updated high quality foam mattress, but at the end of the day, it's still a sleeper sofa, and not ideal for adult bodies. One of the things people really appreciate is the two bathrooms, one has a walk-in shower, the other a shower/tub combo. There is limited hanging space and a few dresser drawers.

Other Details to Note
We provide a couple of beach towels, but please make sure our white bath towels remain in the unit. You may want to bring beach chairs and a canopy, but be sure to bring your canopies back with you when you leave the beach, or they may be assumed abandoned and collected. Please don't ever intentionally abandon broken equipment or trash on the beach, we have a dumpster at the property you are welcome to use. There is a shared laundry room at the end of the breezeway that uses app/digital operated machines, so you won't need to carry change. Just beyond the laundry room on the East end of the building is a brand new Pergola (not pictured) with picnic tables to provide a shaded area for you to use our community grills and hang out. You can view the pool from the grilling area. Our community pool is just a few steps away from our condo patio, it is gated for your safety and offers another shaded pergola and lounge chairs. We have a coffee pot that offers both drip coffee function, or you can brew with single use pods, bring whatever you prefer! (We supply a few pods to get you started!) It's a good idea to reserve your golf cart before you arrive. We like Top Deck and Joy Golf Cart rentals, but just about any rental company on the Island is pretty good. Rates may be better from one to another depending on the pickup and drop off times you need. Some of them will even deliver and pick up the cart for a fee. Barefoot Beans is a great spot for morning coffee, Virginia's on the Bay has great dinner options, sit on the patio to overlook the bay where the dolphins love to hang out. For a quaint and quiet before dinner drink spot, try the espresso martinis at Roosevelt's 1886 Bar. The Palm Social Club is a good spot to check for live music. For a little bit of everything be sure to check out the newly opened Sip Yard, a family-friendly and pet-friendly venue with 3-story ocean views, live music, games, cold drinks, and multiple food truck style restaurant options.
