As advertised, this beautifully renovated beachfront two-bedroom apartment had ample space, chic and fresh furnishings, and an unbeatable million-dollar sunset view. It perfectly captures the charm of Madeira Beach, balancing comfort with convenience. The owner, Jeff, is incredibly thoughtful, providing nearly everything you need for a seamless stay-(aside from food). While the washers and dryers are convenient, at this price point, I did expect them to be included, along with laundry detergent. The apartment is conveniently located within walking distance of some great restaurants (Cantina and Lisa’s being my personal favorites). Even though I had a car, it was nice to not need it. Minor downsides: There are quite a few access codes required for the elevator, pool, and beach, which can be a bit cumbersome. Some lighting on the code boxes would be a welcome improvement. A touch of extra greenery and palms around the pool would add a bit more freshness and ambiance to the new lighting, which I was informed the Board had recently invested in. I appreciated the relaxed atmosphere—mostly adults and regulars—without a constant party scene at the pool (though this was off-season). The overall condo is very well-maintained. While the hot tub was down one evening, the maintenance team’s daily cleaning of the pool, hot tub, and walkways was impressive. As a former local familiar with the area, this place stole my heart, and I’m already looking forward to my next stay.
