All the chairs
We enjoyed our stay. I have only one thing I wish had been different. We didn't have meals there since we ate out the three days that we were there so we didn't need the dining room chairs much. Those chairs and the ones on the balcony were very uncomfortable. We are seniors and prefer chairs that we are able to set our feet flat on the floor while we are sitting. One or two of those would have been nice but overall the accommodations met our needs.

Would not book this condo again.
Let me just say Poole properties went out of their way to get into a new place after a first miserable day/night in room 2112. Floors un-even, plug ins didn't work, and the air was also not working. It was hot and miserable at 86*, I contacted them immediately the next morning and they worked to get us into another condo. But it took a while and took 2hrs of our day having to pack, move, unpack again. I would not stay in this one again. We have stayed in other condos here and always had great experiences and won't let this one mishap keep us from coming back next year.

Nice beach vacation
It's a little different checking in at the office in town and then driving another 10 miles, but it was ok. Security was good and friendly. We arrived after dark and the buildings weren't labeled well so that took a little time. Providing a site map would have helped. The large outdoor pool is being renovated and was closed

Very Happy!
We really enjoyed our 4 day stay. We liked the choice of the pool or the beach. The condo is small, but well laid out and cozy. We liked having a kitchen and 2 bathrooms. Both worked really well for us.

Old but clean
Property was small but clean. It was very far from town - 24-30 mins to the closest store or restaurant. The development has a lot construction going on from the last hurricane. It’s also an older property and needs to be updated.

Short walk to beach
The kitchen has multiple areas where the floor sinks in pretty badly. We contacted the property manager and they said they would send someone out to assess it. No one ever came (to our knowledge). When using smart cast, the TV would freeze often.

Hurricane Sally changed plans
Couldn't stay at original booking location due to Hurricane Sally, then had to leave early due to government mandated evacuation. Rental association was nice until time to refund our partial stay, then they were extremely rude.

Spring break
We just loved our little get away. With all the scary travel restrictions and suggested quarantine, having a condo on a private beach was perfect. The condo itself was very clean and in a great location; Close to the private beach and pools. Only suggestion I have is to put more hooks, or towel racks in the bathroom or out on the patio. We didn’t have anywhere to hang our towels after taking a shower. Other than that, the place was amazing and we will definitely visit again!!
