Retro

Great views, bad window blinds and one slider door not working. “Vintage” kitchen cabinets need to go. Toilets functional but ancient. One shower only connects to two toilets. Clean and comfortable. “Ghetto fabulous”. Best beach ever though!

Excellent Place & Location

Very easy check in, even with us arriving late on a Sunday. Very helpful staff and property guard. Condo is on the 5th floor of building 4 and had an excellent view of the larger pool and the beach. Condo was clean and well maintained. Some stains on the carpet and larger appliances are a bit dated, but still work well! Beds were comfortable, great view. Be prepared for the sun out your window in the master bedroom in the morning as the windows face east (forgot to close the blinds a couple days)! Balcony is large and includes chairs. My 2 kids (11 and 7) absolutely loved their room and we enjoyed the large amount of storage space for clothing and food/items. Property management is very attentive. Previous inspection prior to our check in noted a leaking garbage disposal and reached out on day 1 to have it checked out again. Maintenance person was very attentive. Management reached out again the following day to confirm disposal was not leaking. Amazing staff! Pools are well maintained and lots of seating around both. Easy access to beach and rentable chairs with umbrella are available. Resort is at the end of the strip adjacent to the dunes, which results in less people on the beach. Absolutely loved it! Thank you for a great stay and we will be back!

A Piece of Paradise!

Beautiful beach themed condo! Wake up to a beautiful sunrise and walk out on the patio for a cup of coffee with the waves and an ocean view. Clean and spacious for the 4 of us. My only issue was getting the check in key for late check in. The lock was stuck and I couldn’t get the overnight drop box open. The security guard did not know the code and the after hour number went straight to voicemail. Luckily my mom was able to get the lock unjammed and we got the key. Property management didn’t return our call until 9am the next morning. Overall, the condo was wonderful and we enjoyed our stay. We will try to get there before late check in next time! Will definitely be returning in the near future.

It was nice. I was told construction work would be at building 3 but it was actually at 4. We couldn’t get on patio from 7-5 and you had to park away from the building because the entrance and exit was blocked. The condo was nice but very dusty!

Needs new beds

Twin beds were very disappointing. No adult could sleep on these. Found bugs and asked to be moved. The property management were fantastic to respond and offered us a choice of options to switch to. Hot tub and sauna were very nice and clean. Beach front was outstanding. Staff on site were all very friendly and accommodating.
