Thank you so much for the wonderful feedback! We're thrilled you enjoyed the oceanfront views and appreciated our attention to detail with the décor and cleanliness. Those are things we take great pride in here. We'd love to welcome you back for another stay whenever your travels bring you our way again. Safe travels!
Condo was exactly as the pics showed. Beautifully renovated with nice cookware which was important to us as we cook every night.The view from the balcony was nothing but beach & ocean. Excellent place for dinner & wine. Great to have an elevator. The condo is small making it the perfect space for a couple. But overall could not ask for a nicer place.

No problems with the accommodation but the parking had some hiccups. One of my parking keys didn't work and I received a citation for not displaying the parking permit but the parking permit don't fit on newer car mirrors
Beautiful ocean view. Gorgeous comfortable interior design. Easy elevator access. No steps! Beach access was nice Quiet and Peaceful place. Great location to grocery and restaurants and pier. Take your own staples including dishwasher detergent. I recommended they stock a broom or working vacuum. Washer dryer combo was neat! Didn't have to switch loads.
