Great location, easy access, comfy beds, ok amenities, ready for updates

Location is fantastic. Booking and check in great. Property is secure and well kept. Room itself is in need of a new patio door, as well as some minor repairs and upgrades. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots/pans and silverware. Appliances work well. It’s disappointing to not have some small perks like salt/pepper, a roll of paper towels, more dish detergent, etc. We did receive warning to bring our own pool towels. That would be a nice perk, but I’m sure it saves a ton of laundry expense, so that’s acceptable to me. Recycling bins would be great. More than half of our ‘trash’ was recyclable. This room also had no beach ‘gear’ to reuse. We left 2 boogie boards, but were not confident they’d not be trashed. We gave 3 to neighbors, along with some sand buckets. I hope they are used by next renters.

Great location

The unit was a great location to access the beach the pools were really nice! Loved the access to all the amenities. The only two things were the floors were a bit dirty and the washer and dryer in building one didn’t work well.
