Fantastic Place Inside an Out Views and location
Response from VrboOwner on 18 Aug 2026
Thanks for the 5‑star review! Glad the views and location made for a fantastic stay.
We had a wonderful stay! The condo was immaculately clean, which is a huge deal for us. Tropical Storm Bertha brought a lot of wind and rain, but our kids still had great beach fun. The beach access was about 50 steps from the elevator which was a big plus! The balcony views were fantastic. The condo kitchen was well equipped with very clean and new appliances and everything we need provided. This was a gem for a last minute trip and condo so nice that I was surprised at how well we lucked up. Thanks for the great stay!

The room was very clean. The location was awesome. Guest had to wait a long time on elevators. There are 2 elevators, but either one was not working or they were extremely slow..

Reviewer Comments:
We very much enjoyed our stay in this unit. The only thing I think needs to be addressed is the slider off the living room. It was very hard to open and close. Also, the linens had some rust stains, which is not a big deal to me, but might be to others. Beach chairs were nice, but you had to reserve and pay extra to be in the line of chairs along the water. Maybe disclose this to the guest, so they can reserve in advance. Other than that, we loved the unit and how nice it was. We very much enjoyed our stay and will be back.
Response from VrboOwner on 30 July 2026
Thanks for sharing your experience! Happy to hear you loved the unit and had a great stay. We appreciate your comments about the slider, linens, and the beach‑chair reservation process — that’s helpful for us and future guests. If you return, let us know while you’re here if anything needs a quick fix so we can make it a 5‑star week. Looking forward to having you back.
