Great time

Beautiful condo, very clean and quiet too! Beautiful views of the beach. We visited the pool and enjoyed our stay. The only down side was the bedroom blinds didn’t lower, but being on the top floor I wasn’t worried about someone looking in. Definitely will stay here again!

Fantastic!

The open layout of the condo was great! It made the condo feel really spacious. Absolutely loved the huge kitchen counter space. The sliding glass doors were excellent on blocking out any “additional” noise. Loved the remote controlled blinds. They provided enough shade that when you woke up in the morning you were not blinded by a light peaking through. The bathroom was outstanding! The bathroom vanity was the right hight & the shower layout was great. Neither the husband or I, ever felt that we were cramped up in the living room. The couch was big enough for both of us to lay on. We will definitely be booking this one again!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, maybe the best condo we have ever stayed in. This includes many stays at nine or more different beaches. Everything in very good shape. The pillowtop king mattress was a little soft for me. However I like a firm bed. Very good patio furniture. Keurig coffee maker. Lots of kitchen utensils, dishes, etc. Dishwasher will have to be updated before too long. 12th floor is not too high. Elevators are fairly fast. For good seafood, be sure to eat at Mario's Italian and Katie's downtown on the bay.
