Will stay again!!!!

The place was absolutely incredible. The pool and beach access was right there, hot tubs were even closer. They have elevators and carts to take up and down luggage. The laundry rooms were very clean as well. it was quite, fun, people were very nice. Everything in the room was clean and ready for my week stay. Definitely will be staying here again, especially for how easy it made my stay on vacation.

Great location and spacious condo

Great location…walking distance to beach and restaurants, coffee shops and shops.The pickup and drop off for the local free open air trolley was less than a block from the condo.Condo was spacious with good size bedrooms and bathrooms. It was clean, but needed a few things updated such as the broken vertical blinds, older kitchen chairs and patio furniture. Overall, a great place to stay.

Family trip

The view was amazing. The price of the unit was good. We had a few issues with the unit that we asked to be fixed and was not fixed. The sink wouldn’t drain and we wanted to watch tv at night and the tv’s wouldn’t work. They said they came in and fixed it while we were out and nothing was fixed. The overall was good.
