Second time staying at this property, though in a different condo. Yes, the property is older but the condo is well maintained. Several times I messaged the host with a question and both times got a very quick response. Loved sitting on the balcony, enjoying the morning view with my coffee, while everyone else was asleep. Perfect for us grandparents traveling with 2 kids ages 13 & 14. Being right on the beach was great. I'm sure we will be back.

Everything was great other than the elevator not working. The condo itself was wonderful just the building needs to update the elevator system.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed your stay in the condo. Weβll look into improving the elevator system. Thank you for your understanding.
The view was very nice, the elevator was not working several times during our stay and climbing 6 flights of stairs was horrible. Then at checkout elevator down once again and I dropped a bag as we asseneded the 6 flights and broke several souvenirs. Upsetting. Rooms were nice,kitchen nice, decor very nice.

We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the elevator issues. We're glad you enjoyed the view, rooms, and decor. Thank you for your feedback; we'll address the elevator situation promptly.
The room was clean and spacious, we really enjoyed the stay here! Loved the ocean view, and the pool was great. Would have liked the courtesy of an early check-in as we have gotten with other entities since the property was ready well before check-in time, had to check out a day early due to an emergency with no refunds offered so keep this in mind when booking. Host was super prompt at answering messages and we were very pleased with that! Lots of towels and a starter supply of cleaners, paper towel towels, and toilet paper was appreciated! Loved that the condo was well stocked with all cooking supplies and everything was pristine clean!
Beautiful view, easy access to restaurants and shopping. The pool was clean and relaxing. Easy access to the beach. Kitchen fully stocked with everything you need, Beautiful place over all.
