Loved the location! Loved the condo! The only thing that was difficult for us was carrying everything up and down three flights for stairs, but we had younger children with us and I didn’t realize or read that there wasn’t an elevator. I would definitely stay here again though!

Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so glad to hear you loved both the condo and its location and that you had an enjoyable stay overall. We appreciate your feedback regarding the stairs.

Great location. Condo was as advertised. Great pool and hot tub, but lounging chairs are very hard and uncomfortable. Very nice condo, a little small but comfortable. Lots to do in the area and lots of walking options. Just minutes from the beach. Will be back.

Perfect spot .. just across the road from Crystal Beach… would not say it’s close to shopping without a rental… a Swiffer and a new broom would be good. I bought one and passed it on to another guest when leaving
