It was OK
The place itself was clean and obviously the location was very nice. It was very family friendly and no pets was a plus. The bed had a very firm mattress, not good for us but could be for others. We stayed a week and were only provided 1 toilet paper roll, and body wash. No shampoos even though it said toiletries. The kitchen had what you need to cook with but it made it difficult to clean without a drying rack and only 1 kitchen towel. The water pressure was great as well. The view was beautiful but no where to sit outside. We'd stay at the condos again but at a different one.

Dirty Storage Closet
Awful! The condo was dirty and smelled terrible. The mattress was so old that you could feel every spring. There were no sheets for the pull out sofa. There was so much extra furniture in the small space that it felt like a storage place for extra furniture. I don’t usually complain, but stay some place else!

Summer Stay
We had a few small issues upon checkin, but the property owners drove out personally to take care of them and check in on us. They were extremely kind and made sure we felt comfortable and were satisfied before they left and were willing to go the extra mile to make sure we were happy. The owners also made sure we had coffee stocked (including cups, lids and creamer), toilet paper and paper towels. The property is perfectly located to walk to the beach and accommodated our group well. It is close to a crosswalk which made crossing over the Seawall easy and there was plenty of space on the beach nearby to set up. This would be a great place for a girls trip or for a small family. We will definitely be coming back!

Needs a few things
Although the property was clean, it lacked many things. The dishes are very old and dirty looking. There were no silverware or cooking utensils. There were not enough towels. When you have kids… beaching, pooling, showering.. you need more towels. We would have like to have a broom available to sweep. Would have liked a few more trash bags. Also there was a smashed tiny bar of soap and only a little shampoo and conditioner. Normally when we stay in those they have some board games and a little beach gear like lawn chairs and stuff. We had to purchase a lot that normally is in the rentals.
