Feeling like a day of leisure? Take a dip in the inviting heated (winter months) pool and let your worries float away on the gentle waves. Or perhaps the beach is calling your name—load up the beach wagon with provided chairs, towels, and an umbrella, and embark on a short 4-minute stroll to the nearby beach access. As you sink your toes into the soft white sand, keep an eye out for playful dolphins dancing in the sparkling waves.

But wait, there’s more to explore! If you’re in the mood for a change of scenery, head over to the neighborhood bayside park and immerse yourself in the tranquil beauty of nature. With every glance, you might just catch a glimpse of enchanting manatees frolicking in their natural habitat.

Thinking of venturing further afield? Times Square, just 2 miles away, beckons with its vibrant energy and endless entertainment. Grab your bikes or rent some locally for a quick and scenic journey to this bustling hub of activity. And when hunger strikes, rest assured that delicious dining options await just a stone’s throw from home.
