Exactly As Advertised

The property was clean and well maintained. It also came stocked with what was needed including shampoo, conditioner, dish soap, laundry soap, ect. We had a great stay! The property is pet friendly so unfortunately I did get woken up on vacation by a barking dog below us at 4am more than one day- but that's more of a pet owner issue verses the property.

Friends Vacay!

This is our second year staying here! It’s become our home away from home with a much better view!!! We love that the well equipped kitchen allowed us to make casual meals in between soaking up the rays on the beach. We also love that each bedroom has its own attached bath so there is no waiting for showers. The living area is open and spacious enough that we could all be together without being crowded and the balcony was a perfect spot to sit and relax! We love it so much that we already booked again for next year before we checked out!!!

The house was perfect, and fit all our needs for a family of ten.

The only thing that was a slight problem was the dryer. It would not get hot enough to dry clothes especially towels, however since we did not contact the appropriate staff it is not a complaint at all. This was our third rental and better suited our needs than any other. A great property highly recommend.

amenities needed

The location and size of the property is very good. We very much enjoyed the balcony and view. I only gave 4 stars because We would like to suggest a few things. The kitchen needs many more cooking utensils, pots and pans. It is lacking in glasses and needs better coffee cups. The shower heads need to be worked on. If you could provide some umbrellas to take to the beach, that would be very welcomed. We would stay here again if these items were addressed.

Amazing Condo

This will definitely be our vacation home every summer. We all loved it, it was a beautiful, clean, well mantaimed home with all the eq equipment we needed for cooking our meals. But best of all was the view, the the reflection of the sun and moon was amazing. Only details were minimal, 1 of the bedrooms was very hot and fan wouldn't work, one bedroom the light wouldn't turn off all night. & the control of the fans were a bit difficult, the outdoorlight through elevator and pool area didnt turn on one night but we got it fixed, parkimg area is very small and crowded but apart from that totally worth our money and stay. Looking foward to our next stay!

Great views

The views of the property were amazing. It was in a great area. There were a couple of areas that were found out in the house that weren’t great such as the ac filter is in need of a change, and the dryer vent perhaps it wouldn’t dry clothes. This definitely didn’t out way the good.

Fine rental. A little run down

We stayed here a couple of years ago. It is a little run down since then. The vent hood is rusted, the furniture has some worn off spots. It is very difficult to open and close the freezer. If you call the help number, you get a voicemail. Nonetheless, it is very spacious. Our family of 10 did not feel crowded at all. Location is great. Only steps from the beach and near many local attractions and restaurants. We absolutely would stay here again , but it would be nice if they would spruce up the place a bit.

Family of 12

Property showed its age but worked well in size for our family. The heavy chairs and stools need felt pads on their feet to prevent very loud scraping noise when moved. The issue was also above us and below us. We only had 10 plates for 12 people and 8 forks. Housekeeping did eventually provide more silverware. We would have been happy with some cleaning utensils other than just a broom to clean up all the sand. But the location, size and views from this place were awesome. All in all had Avery nice stay

Great location, beautiful unit

Overall we had a great time at this unit. The location is perfect, right on the beach and access to everything within minutes. We were quite impressed with the size of the unit, the pictures don’t do it justice as far as the size goes. Very modern but homey feel. We had 16 guests in our party for one night and it never felt crowded. We only had one issue on our third night that had us locked out for a good part of the evening, that was very inconvenient. We were able to get a hold of someone rather quickly but it did take a good while for someone to come out and let us back in. It was an inconvenience but definitely not one that would keep us from renting again. We loved it and created many great memories with the family.

Excellent!

The condo is absolutely beautiful. We were a group of 10 friends and fit very comfortably. The rooms are big and the finishes are top notch. One small recommendation though. Some of the furniture in the livingroom, although stylish and functional, is worn or broken and needs replacing. At that price point, everything should be flawless. The condo is great, the finishes are great, the pool is a bit small, but the beach is right there! We will definitely be returning!
