Nice place

It was a very nice property. Upstairs neighbors were a little loud at times, but it didnt effect my stay much at all. The Bed was to firm for me but the recliner was nice to sleep in. I would go back.

Good overall

Must say this was the cleanest condo we have ever booked and we have booked many over the past 20 years. Kudos to the cleaning staff! The complex is small and uncrowded—huge plus. Beach service is excellent, usually setup around 8am and taken down at 5pm. However, I would not book this unit again unless the mattress was changed out. My wife and I could barely stand it by the end of our stay. Very soft and unsupportive with deep “ruts” on either side with a ridge down the center. This mattress is worn out. I would expect better for the price

Beautiful View!

The unit was well stocked and the balcony view was amazing. The bed was comfortable. The only thing that was a little disappointing was the access to the beach at the end of the building, meaning we had to walk the length of the property, and then walk down a steep paved parking space in order to access the walkway to the beach. However, I would definitely stay here again!

half for the money

had a 2 night family vacation planned , mistakenly we booked only 1, we know it was busy weekend and we were left with no choice but to accept 1 night. condo was dusty, oudated electronics, balcony furniture was still sticky, when arrived we were just told "oh well the washer dryer wont work for your stay" so we had no way of washing our clothes. another owner of a condo unit was always outhere in his balcony screaming at people walking on sand finding their way, pop up on elevator being rude to kids walking on grounds. dusty front mats and door reef or decoration. closet in room full of black trash bags and other stuff couldnt use that closet.other than that it we enjoyed our trip and moved 5 buildings down to a more cleaner and updated host who was kind to help us get a night that we needed. not thru VRBO

Good Stay

Renting the property was easy. The pictures are very accurate in the description of the property. It is slightly outdated in the shower and the patio door handle was almost entirely ripped off which made accessing the patio difficult. I did call them and they offered to send maintenance right away, but we had a short stay and did not want extra people in and out. The bed was comfortable but there’s a lot of furniture in there for such a small room. There was also a random television on the floor next to the wall which didn’t feel like it belonged. Overall comfortable stay, but I will rent a different unit next time.
