We're not golfers, but this is our third stay at EDM. We come for the ocean and the quiet. It's one of the most beautiful spots I've found on the ocean, especially if you're into nature and long beach walks.
This condo in Phase 1 was really great. More modern than some (I had to google how to use a hub stove) and while it took some figuring out how to adjust the indoor temperature, it was simple once I knew. The owners were very responsive when we had no hot water. It was fixed quickly. Thank you! All in all a great condo with beautiful ocean views and morning sun earlier than most.
We luckily arranged with Mariene in Property Services to have groceries delivered (was told this was not offered at the moment), but in general the lack of access to groceries proves to be a downside of EDM. I always wonder why the little super-mini doesn't stock more food (and even fresh or frozen fruit/veggies) rather than mainly chips and pop. While owners usually have vehicles or means to get to town, it's a hassle for VRBO vacationers. Otherwise, EDM is my forever vacation spot.
