Family vacation

We were there for a 15 day family vacation and as soon as we walked in, it felt like home. Everything was clean, convenient and well equipped. We loved the area where the condo was situated and the fact that the beach was gated and very close. We will definately be booking again next year.

Overall, the stay was just okay. Our first impression of the condo was how dirty the floors were. Clearly that had not been cleaned in a long time. We all put our shoes back on ten minutes into getting there because our feet were already black from walking on the floors. Cooking was a nightmare between pans that everything stuck to and half the stove eyes not working very well at all. (15 min on high and my eggs JUST started cooking). We also had to buy basic seasonings like salt and pepper, which are usually included in rentals for bare minimum seasonings. The A/C in the master bedroom was also broken, which we were brought a fan, but it hardly made a difference in this heat. The owners gave a partial refund to make this right, so no complaint about that, but still did not make the stay great having to sleep in a stuffy room. The walk to the beach is short, and it’s close to many places to eat, which is nice! Truly the only reason I put three stars instead of two. The saving grace on this stay, honestly. For what we paid to stay here though, we were disappointed.

Lovely condo and great location

We absolutely love the location of this condo. It is across the street from beach with great balcony and it is next to the pickleball courts. It was a quiet community and not crowded. We also loved the extra thought put into items vacationers might need (umbrellas, extra usb outlets, labels and instructions for remotes, storage unit to put beach items so we didn’t have to lug them upstairs, etc.) The master bedroom was very cool and cozy. Loved the pillows and linens. Slept well!!!! The Realty company was very helpful and we easily could call them and extend our stay which we turned our one week trip into two weeks. I would definitely come to this condo again. However, there are a couple of recommendations for repairs to the unit. The clothes dryer is so loud that you cannot hear tv in living area, the dishwasher needs to be bolted into cabinet and the dishwasher door falls to floor quickly which almost hit my foot. Also the broil on the oven did not seem to work.
