The property was excellent. Felt very comfortable during the COVID situation. They showed concern for their guests by having hand sanitizer stations, limiting elevator occupancy, providing social distancing and enforcing the wearing of masks. The condo itself was perfect. Beautiful view and very comfy. Would definitely like to stay there again.

Nice property, Great view

Very nice and comfortable property. Beautiful view of ocean and pool. It would be nice to have a few things like salt, pepper, coffee, sugar in the unit, but if you want these, make sure to bring your own. Coffee down at front desk is nice. No restaurant, bar and spa were not open on property so again byo. Otherwise, very clean, nice staff. Nice workout facility for sure!! Pool very clean, a bit cold this time of year, but well kept.
