The condo is lovely! We LOVED the location, decor, view, and spaciousness of this unit. We were disappointed in the scarcity of blankets, linens, and paper products. Each of the three beds had sheets and a very thin bedspread. There was not a blanket of any sort in the entire condo. There were 18 extra pillows, but 0 extra pillowcases.

Would stay again

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Older condo but fairly well maintained. Great view. Amenities covered all the bases. Needs a few minor repairs. Some easy additions like extra towels/paper products/soaps would have been nice. Would stay again.

Disappointed

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay started out very miserable. After a day of travel and unpacking, we were so disappointed to discover at 10 pm we did not have linens for the pull out sofa when it was clear via our reservation that we had the maximum number of guests. We went to Walmart to get sheets and blanket. Also, we only had one kitchen wash towel and one dry towel; therefore, we purchased more. Our friends in other units with the lock off had extra linens, sheets and towels. We’ve never had this experience. It just set the mood for the vacation.

The room was roomy and comfortable. The bedrooms were large and bathrooms nice.

We loved the spacious bedrooms and living area. The living area was large enough for 8 persons to sit and enjoy being together. I loved having three bedrooms and three baths. The ocean view from the balcony was beautiful.

Will never return- focused on money. Not the client

Reservation was easy, check in a breeze. After i reserved the place, I got the check in email which then stated I was required to purchase wristbands for everyone in my group at 15 bucks a piece. They told me it was mandatory that we have them to have access to the pool and beach. Then they did not allow canopies ir umbrellas because they want you to rent theirs which are 100.00 dollars a day. No thanks.
