Jan14th-28th stay
We had stayed in the same unit in 2019 and the view was what we liked the most then and now.
The master bedroom bed is not comfortable. It has a hump in the king size mattress. Replacement may be needed.
The heat went out during our stay but it was quickly repaired.
TV in family room is not the best picture
We were only given 1 key in our late check in envelope
Overall it was an okay stay

Very nice!
Sand Cay is very well maintained. The property and surroundings are lovely! The staff is very welcoming and is kind. The condo is nicely furnished and has a beautiful ocean front view. The condo needs some care. There is no washer and dryer in the unit which is an inconvenience. Overall we enjoyed a beautiful week at the beach!
