This place was very clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. The facility has a lot of rules. No smoking or any type of tobacco anywhere, not even your balcony. They have a designated smoking area in front of the building. I’m not a smoker so wasn’t an issue for me but I figured some may need to know this. There were always ample chairs at the pool and the beach service was very nice.

We always love the Holiday Surf & Racquet Club! This was our first time staying in 516, and we have zero complaints! The Murphy bed was excellent— easy to pull down for the night and put back up for the full living room space. Between that and the bed in the room, my husband and I and our two little ones were able to sleep comfortably. We made wonderful memories together on our trip, and this condo was the perfect home base for us. Thank you!!!

We love Holiday Surf and Raquet club. This unit 516 was good with easy access to the stairs and not too far from the elevator. The bed was comfortable and patio overlooking the beach amazing. The kitchen was stocked with all necessities and everything worked great. The bathroom did have a small issue and the shower head was loose and not caulked to the shower wall (4 stars on property condition). However, the shower was still functional.

Loved the location because its right on the beach but not too crowded. The shower needs a lot of work. There is water you can feel that is trapped under the tub and shower curtain rod has duck tape on it. Also, it would be nice to at least have some coffee for the first day and salt/pepper. No extras in this condo and overall needs some updating.
