The condo had everything we needed for our stay. The bed was comfortable and the beach service was a huge plus. I would say the only thing is that the condo didn't look anything like the pictures. It wasn't bad at all, just a little surprising when we walked in. The layout was the same so there were no issues at all.

Great view and close to many things

Yes there are needed updates/upgrades to the unit but you are not going on vacation to sit in a room. The view is great. The location is close to the steps, the trash disposal, parking lot and the beach access. The only thing is it's not close to the elevator but it's not that long of a walk. The gated parking is definitely a plus with me.

Unit needs TLC

The unit itself needs TLC in bathroom . Trim in bathroom in need of replacement. Kitchen was average but the front door safety latch needs to be addressed. View was amazing and the property was wonderful location. Would take little effort to bump this unit up but it does need TLC.

Awful Room! Great Customer service.

This room was awful. The pictures are deceiving. We walked in and a smell hit us. We were so disappointed. The paint was peeling off the ceiling and walls in the bathroom. The pillows had blood stains on them and the pillow cases were dirty. Honestly there was so much more wrong I could write a book about it. We VRBO quite often and this is the one time we would not stay and just deal with this room. I read the other reviews and decided to give it a try. Boy was I wrong. Don't walk run from this property. The blessing was the property management. They wasted no time in finding us another unit. No smell, and it all was in order. I would go back to this property because the property management team was so awesome and rectified the situation.

Disappointed

The beach access was amazing and having the beach chairs each day was great. The facility itself was nice, elevators were quick and common areas were clean. My disappointment was in the unit itself. It was in need of a deep cleaning, repairs, paint and replacements. The kitchen and bath cabinets were probably original, had been painted and the paint is now chipping. Cabinet drawers and doors don't close properly. The counter tops had been replaced but the trim work was in bad shape. The dishwasher wouldn't open without rubbing and scratching the stove front. There were large stains on some of the baseboards. The coffee pot hadn't been cleaned in quite a while, the lid didn't close and it was shoved back into a lower cabinet out of site. Staff replaced it early the next day once I made them aware of it. The sofa and love seat were heavily stained such that I spread sheets over them to sit on them. Great disappointment for the price after traveling 10 hours to get there. I won't stay here again.

Not quite the experience we were hoping for.

Let me start by saying that the condo overall was a nice unit and the view was great. However, there were some issues as well. Although we were aware that there would be renovations going on during our stay, we were a little disappointed that there was no access to the balcony at all. This is a big part of why we love going to the beach. Upon arrival, the floors were still somewhat dirty. Some of the blinds were missing and/or broken. The ceiling in a few areas appeared to be slightly damaged due to water/moisture. And the tub appeared to be leaking during showers, but was determined to be just water collecting around the ledges and running off onto the floor. The shower curtain wasn't adequate for preventing this. By the time it was noticed, nearly half the bathroom floor was wet, which used up most of our towels. Also, there appears to be a leak or a bad gasket underneath the sink in the plumbing. At one point I reached for garbage bags underneath and there seemed to be a slight amount of standing water. Hopefully, some of these areas can be addressed for future guests to have a wonderful experience. If we would have stayed longer than 2 days, we would have contacted staff to try and find a different unit, or at a minimum had maintenance come and fix the areas that could be fixed.

Great View, but Needs Tweaking

The location, ease of access, and property management support was great! I was getting texts and calls quite often and never felt alone if I needed assistance. The balcony and view, as well as access to beach were great. Never felt crowded or cumbersome. However, our 3-A unit was oddly ignored in areas where paint could’ve went a long way. The bathroom had water stains and OLD worn paint areas. It was the worst bathroom I’ve ever stayed in. Literally a fresh coat would do wonders. Also, FORGET about reliable wifi unless you are in the bedroom. In and out the entire time, not able to to find, etc. from other rooms. I would also suggest a basic cleaning product for the kitchen to wipe down countertops during the stay. It was only two of us, no kids, and that would’ve been nice. I tried to in my way out, but nothing.
