Disliked: Cleanliness
The ceramic tile flooring in the unit we stayed in was some of the dirtiest I’ve ever seen. If the owner pays for cleaning it’s not being done well. The unit needs a deep clean, including the drapes in the living area. There’s no washer/dryer in the unit which is unfortunate. There is a single pay washer/dryer set just down the hall.

Condo was very nice and clean. Lots of pools to swim in. The only complaint I have is the beach service chairs were stacked 3 rows deep, so you could not see the water unless you paid for the beach service chairs.

Perfect Family Getaway with Stunning Beach View!

Our family of five had an amazing spring break vacation! The unit was perfect for us—our kids especially loved the bunk beds, and the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our meals. The breathtaking beach view made our stay even more special. We would absolutely return!

Quick trip

We booked a trip for a quick beach vacation. Loved the security at the resort. The condo was exactly as pictured and we had everything we needed in the condo to cook. The option to order food and drinks from the waitresses was a huge plus in keeping everyone fed and happy. A+ stay and trip!

So the unit was clean and well maintained and the view was great. The reason for the rating is the property does not supply you with clean bath towels and wash rags. I was instructed to wash my own by the front desk. This may not seem like a big deal but I traveled with 2 teen girls and a 4 year old, as well as my husband. There was a public washer and dryer on each floor but the one on our floor was broken. The one on the floor below had busted out lights in the room. Since they are public, you cant really just go do your thing and come back like if it was in the unit. My husband was up until 2 am one night waiting on our towels. We were there for 6 days and doing laundry was not what we wanted to do on vacay. If you're there for a few days, its probably fine but lugging laundry to different floors at 2am was frustrating when I feel like the hotel could have given us at least one additional clean set. Otherwise everything was nice.

Truly beachfront

This property was as good, if not better, than advertised. It felt larger than I had thought it would be. I think 6 people would be very possible, but for just my wife and I, it was quite roomy. The balcony was our favorite spot in the evening, and walking down to the water takes only minutes with direct beachfront access and no streets or boardwalks to cross. Perfect! My wife used both pools during our stay and said they were very nice. The condo itself was nicely updated with well thought out design that constantly remind you that you have arrived at the beach. I didn't try the bunk beds, but I bet young kids would love them! We are already planning our next visit and hope this condo will be available. The manager of this rental, Kris, was responsive and very helpful.
