The unit was clean and well stocked. The property was well located with good access to the beach. The only issue though was the master was on the hot side although the AC was blowing. We ended up using the ceiling fan a lot. Otherwise, our stay was nice and we enjoyed ourselves.
The condo was filthy… I took pictures of everything. There was blood on our towels and bedding. Therr was huge piles of dust and dirt everywhere .would never stay here or recommend to anyone.
