It was very clean and comfortable. They provided the basic necessities and some extra. The location was great 3 minute walk to the beach and 1 min walk to the pool. Parking worked out well, you park under the condo but any vehicle should fit we drove a lifted 250 and it still fit under the condo in the parking space. Good amount of steps so if you’re taking older people or crawling babies consider that. iTrip kept in touch during our stay and provided us with lots of helpful information. ##### Ashley S.

Jul 29, 2023 #### The Nautilus We loved our visit to The Nautilus! It was the perfect escape for our family for a few days from the real world. We loved that each cottage was a stand alone unit so that our littles could run and play to their hearts content inside without fear of disturbing our neighbors if we were in a condo. The kitchen was the perfect gathering space for our meals and hanging out to visit. The beds were comfy cozy & everyone slept so good after our days of playing in the sun. Our last night was the favorite...we had a dance party in the kitchen with Alexa playing the little favorite songs. We made so many happy memories here...we can't wait to come back! ##### stacey s.
