Host was responsive and the condo was perfect. The view was amazing and the unit was decorated well. The only small issue I had was with the oven having burnt food from previous guests, making the condo smoky when I turned it on. However, the cleanliness of the unit overall was great! It was a very memorable stay and I hope to return!

Just as advertised and the beach front was perfect!

Overall, property was exactly as it was advertised, location was easy to get to, and the beach was steps away. Not that we were going to use the pool, but it was closed for the 5 days we were there, with no real explanation. The place was roomy, clean with plenty of linens, and the beds were comfy. All in all a great stay and we will go back again.

I’d book it again

The apartment is renovated, spacious, and functional. The building is a little bit old with the pool and maintenance requiring some attention, but the location is great, views, and access to the beach. The owner responds right away; easy instructions, and check-in/out process and staff easygoing.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed the renovated apartment, the spacious layout, and especially the amazing beach location and views. It’s also great to know that check-in and communication went smoothly! I appreciate your comments about the building and shared amenities—while those are managed by the HOA, I’ll be sure to pass along the feedback. I’d love to welcome you back for another stay anytime!

Awesome location on the beach perfect for our family of three! Could not tell the condo had been occupied by previous pet guests. Could even see Clayton’s Bar & Grill fireworks from balcony. Only slight inconvenience, which I know was out of host’s control, was that one of the two elevators were broken during the busy holiday weekend. Loved the provided beach chairs and extras throughout condo like toiletries and tumblers for drinks. Would definitely stay here again!!!
