Our condo was very clean, beds were comfortable, the restaurants were great and all the staff on the property that we spoke with in person were great. A very fun shelling beach and many other amenities. Any kitchen utensil that we needed was there. Here's what didn't work: 1-We were told that maid service was every three days when we checked in. We assumed that, at minimum, that meant replacing the used towels at least once. We did not have any maid service during our six day stay. 2-There was only ONE kitchen towel. There really should 3-4! We chose to do our few dishes by hand, only running the dishwasher once, right before we left.
