Stayed the week of April 1 in units 20 and 25. We had an original reservation beginning April 4, but added the first part of the week later. Jake handled my reservations and did a superb job. Both units were spotless and housekeeping kept the units tidy during the week (fresh towels, trash removal, etc.). The housekeepers work extremely hard... More

Great pool and fishing pier. We saw dolphins from the pier. The beach is across the street, but has all the amenities ready for you. Lounge chairs, umbrellas and... More

The beach is just across the street and beach towels, umbrellas, and lounge chairs are provided. The... More

We've rented this place on a spot, while looking for "escape" from a vacation property we've rented previously. TradeWinds is a quiet, comfortable and very clean place. Since we rented at the last moment we had to switch suites in the middle of our weekly stay. Both suites are nearly identical, consist of 2 rooms - bedroom and dining/ living... More
