We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the condo & would definitely return. It's in a great location with beautiful scenic ocean views. Our only suggestion is to add black out shades to the bedrooms.

The condo unit was very nice and had a great balcony with ocean view. The reason I gave it 4 stars is because there were smokers below us that made it difficult to enjoy the balcony.
