Amazing view

This property is in a great location. Amazing view of the ocean! Quiet and spacious condo. Only flaw was having to report so small property damages upon arrival right away so owners knew it wasn't us. Also one of the bathrooms toilets had urine in it and on the seat most likely from the cleaners so that's not on the property owner. However we absolutely loved our stay and we'll be back again!!!
