Condo in need of update
The condo is older and in need of repair. The door to the middle bedroom is broken on the bottom and looks terrible. The hall bathroom was not cleaned well. Mold on the vent and the shower and floor had hair on it. It needed to be swept but I couldn’t find a broom. The bed was as hard as a brick. I really think I should be reimbursed for some of the cleaning fee, since I had to clean some of it myself with the vacuum in the closet.

No no no.... Please update
This was extremely disappointing. I rented it for some friends as we own a place in the next-door building. Can I just say wow wow wow... The musty stinking smell was almost to the point I wanted to cancel and tell you all to forget it. The walls look like no one has cleaned them in years...... The furniture and carpet are horrible and smell. Please update this before renting to anyone else. It's disgusting..... I am still apologizing to my friends for making them stay there and in hindsight should not have....

It was convenient for beach access & room enough for us to sleep
Had to wash dishes as they were needed because they were all dirty, there was not rest rooms downstairs, & pool was on street side instead of ocean view side. But it worked for family time.

Clean, comfortable and on the beach
This condo was perfect for my friend and me. Clean, quiet (except for the daily early garbage pickup but that’s beyond your cont) and walking distance to everything we wanted to do or see. Beautiful views!

Good location
The physical location of the condo is great.
Vacasa is the rental agency and they are non responsive, completely horrible.
As far as the condo, I wouldn’t recommend…at all.
