Rawlings Suite Retreat is our place of serenity when we need to get away. Who doesn't want to come enjoy the white sand and gorgeous it waters in the Gulf of Mexico? B16 has plenty of room with 1500 sq ft of living area plus 2 balconies that overlook a beautiful Koi fish and turtle lake. The unit is beachside, so no crossing streets to get to the beach. The beach is a short stroll across the courtyard. One balcony is off the living room and the second balcony is off the master suite. There are no elevators to wait on at Sugar Beach! Our unit is on the 2nd and 3rd floor of the complex. So, just a few stairs right up to the front door. Our unit is conveniently close to the gated entrance.
