This 900 sq foot 1 bedroom, full bathroom with tub & shower, and kitchen all with direct access to walk onto your beach front property is awaiting you. A hose is located at end of walkway to rinse off your findings, chairs, and feet. Your door is a few feet from your oceanfront walk & view.

This unique little gem is a perfect retreat to get-away, be together, or work within a solitude and quietness as the Atlantic Ocean energizes you & refreshes your soul.

After your fun filled activities; enjoy a restful time watching your favorite TV shows via streaming as you see the ocean waves.

Then, you have the natural beauty that is priceless of beach. Your time & experience will be cherished. Nearby Dining: Publix Sawgrass Shopping Center:

Reviews are solely my opinion from my experience over the 40 years of dining out. As you know, everyday is different, moods and experiences are personal and that’s what makes them fun.

Ratings are based on a learning curve taking my top favorite places. I am recommending all of the above. The list is not all inclusive… so, if you are wanting more variety.. goggle is our friend.

View: relates to outside, and not to be confused with inside ambulance.
No star, no view to speak of outside

Five star best view of outside
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Food Taste & Service
🏝🏝🏝🏝🏝

Ambulance inside appeal
🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯

How do you choose?
Is view more important?
Then go for the most ⭐️’s.
The food at all is good.

Suggestion, first day in:
Nona Blue High Top or sit at outside bar facing road. Afterwards, shop at Publix, arrive at condo ready to relax.
You are seven minutes from condo.

Bon Appe’tit! I live nearby in the event you need anything. I want you to be comfortable & have anything you need. Overtime, I have added what guests have suggested. Please, feel free to text & or call me on my cell. I would love to hear from you, just let me know everything’s ok, or, if there is something you need. Thank you for choosing 659A Retreat 11. 🏝️🌺 donna🪷. I have added a concierge package as an additional arrangement. It can include stocked kitchen, guests privileges to private clubs for gym & dining, heated lap & family pool, hot tub enjoyment for the most extravagant experience. Simple extravagance is at condo, peaceful, private, and unique.
