Beautiful place

The property overall was great, the condo was very well decorated and clean. It was well stocked and the owners made sure that there were things such as movies and games for all ages. The view from the balcony was breathtaking we would definitely love to book this unit again. The only draw back was the elevators slowing down during the rush.

When you’re sitting in the living room, because you’re on the 29th floor, it looks like you’re on a cruise ship just watching the water go by.

Great and clean stay!

The only downside to this property was the elevators. There were also people throwing heavy drinks off the balcony’s. Apparently it happens a lot. Other than that we would definitely stay at this property again.

Great Condo

Really great condo and location on Front Beach Rd. Everything was as described and the communication with the owners was awesome. Only downside was the wait time for the elevators which was told to us prior to our stay so we weren’t surprised. We would definitely stay here again!

Vacation stay

Overall the stay was good. Elevators sucked and some things in our room were not up to standards. Most likely due to housekeeping, not the owners. I would stay here again.

Beach Trip with friends!

Overall the visit to PCB was fun! We enjoyed our stay and the location of the condo was perfect. Wray and Shelley have all you would need to make your vacation with little ones fun. The only reason I’m not rating this place 5 star is that there were a few things we wished were cleaned a little better before our stay.

Great stay in Bluehaven

Condo was great. The 3 bathrooms is a major plus. Very clean, great view and great amenities. The elevators were a pain but honestly not too bad. Weather was bad and ripntides kept the beach to on shore only the whole week. But the pools were great. Thanks for a great family vacation.
