My wife and I spent 11 days in our unit and we enjoyed every day/night. The place was nice and the patio was also nice to sit on and enjoy the view.We especially enjoyed how close we were to the beach and that we could simply just walk and not have to pack up the vehicle to go to the beach.

Very clean, well stocked! We were at a different rental for vaca, and it was horrific, so we decided to do a complete do over, and booked this! Spend the extra 15 dollars a day!!! No drama host, no cameras on you relaxing on the porch, clean from top to mattress covers, 30 sec walk to the beach which is basically private, good neighbors, everyone minds their own, close to everything, not walking close, but close, within a mile to two miles.

Wonderful stay! Close to the beach, my kids loved the access to the pool. Loved the amenities, even got to grill one night. Perfect for small families looking for a little getaway. Loved the location as it was in a more quieter part of pcb, but still close enough to enjoy everything pcb has to offer.

The place needs updating, more pots and pans and better paint. The place is a lot older than it looks on photos and was not properly cleaned nor a broom available anywhere in the unit. The mattress cover from the pull out bed was stained, there were springs missing that my husband had to replace, and the pullout bed looked broken. RealJoy was good about bringing out a new cover right away but did not take the stained one. There was trash left under a sofa. The place is okay for what it’s for don’t expect it to look like the photos.

Simply perfect!

This condo was perfect for the two of us! Clean, bright and well-appointed. Bed was comfortable. Bathroom was clean with plenty of towels, etc. Washer and dryer was nice to have—and used a lot. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to cook full meals (which we did a few times). Comfortable living room, with great walk-out porch. Conveniently located on the ground floor just steps away from the pool. (No noise issues, whatsoever.). So easy to get to the beach. This is the second time we’ve stayed at Nautical Watch, and this condo stay far exceeded our first stay—even though that unit was on the beach. This is a great place for a couple, and I highly recommend. Loved it!!!
