Very nice beach front condo. The Commodore is a calm and relaxing condominium.
Property location and size met our needs perfectly.
The location and size of the property was just what we needed for this trip. Overall the property was in good condition and was well stocked and clean. There was a hole cut in the wall between the bedroom and bathroom in one of the rooms...not sure what that was about; the entry door was difficult to lock and the rug in the living area definitely needed to be cleaned or replaced.
