We enjoyed the location, the small-ish sized property, fellow vacationers, pool, and deck. The apartment is a bit old but has seen refresher efforts (windows, shower, kitchen). However, the AC is too noisy and they need to install blinds because waking up with daylight at 6:00 AM is not vacation friendly.

Quick weekend trip
We had a great time in this unit. Nicely decorated, pool and facilities were very nice. Easy to access. We didn’t need to cook anything but if you did the oven is very old and small. Kitchen could use remodeling. But other than that it’s a perfect little getaway for 2.

Disappointed
The property and staff are wonderful. Location is perfect. The room was NOT described accurately. As above in the photo, it shows a beach view. This is wrong. Our view was of a parking lot. We also had to clean our bathroom sink, toilet, and bathtub when we arrived. EXTREMELY disappointed in the room itself

Very nice place.
The place was very clean and well kept. Furnishings were dated and with all tile flooring I wish there had been a rug in the condo somewhere. Very minor but wanted it mention it. I would gladly stay there again and probably will.
