We spent the month of January at this condo. Had some rainy days but most were sunny. The condo was everything we hoped it would be. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. This is a great location with such a fabulous view. The managing host (Heidi) was very easy to connect with and lovely to communicate with.

Check in information was not delivered 48 hours in advance as promised. I had to call several times and be routed through several agents at VRBO. it would have been helpful to have check out instructions in advance. It would have been helpful to have pool hours, weight room hours, information on the limited times and availability of kayak and paddle board rentals as well as information regarding the tv service. It is a beautiful place with great views but lacking in the resort information on the VRBO listing
