Beautiful Atmosphere and Room
Everything was perfect. From the beautiful ambiance and large space of the condo, the beach front scenery, and the location of the property, everything was even better than expected. The condo was stocked with essentials to get through the 1st day and was just an overall grand experience. We will be back soon!
This location is wonderful! Right on the beach and a corner unit so you have sweeping views! We watched the dolphins playing as the sun rose every morning of our stay. The condo is spacious and well appointed. There were a few issues we feel need to be addressed. First and most important is a cleanliness issue. We feel that there needs to be an emphasis placed on cleaning in the condo. We had an issue with the linens; I’m not going to go into detail, but it was important enough that I needed to address it with the management team. Additionally, the management team needs to be more responsive. The issue with the linens was not addressed until a day after I first brought it up. We were never given the proper codes for the amenities. Proper instructions need to be provided for entering and exiting the condo. Last, the showers were a little dangerous in that they were very slick. My sister and her daughter actually fell down in the hall shower.
This condo is amazing! Wonderful views, easy check in, all amenities you would need for a great week. Staff were awesome— especially Angie at the front. She had candy everyday for the kids and was so personable and knowledgeable. You can walk to everything from this property. Restaurants, beach bars, shops, etc. we rarely used our car at all. Bahama Bobs has great food and $3 wine and beer for happy hour! Laurias food was outstanding and the drinks and wine were awesome too. The pizza place across the street is seasonal. We caught them on the last day and the pizza was awesome. I would stay here again without question!
A couple of considerations: it would be nice if the condo provided a better broom/swifter or something to help with keeping sand up. The vaccum doesn’t work well and the broom falls apart when using it. There is a griddle in the kitchen, it does not get hot enough to even cook eggs. It probably needs replaced. There is only one key. This presents an issue when you have 2 families who sometimes didn’t eat together etc. Get alcohol before you go to the condo. The 2 places across the street are insanely expensive. Lastly, the gym isn’t good. All of the equipment needs oiled, over 1/2 of it doesn’t even turn on anymore and there are no free weights. I would bring as much of your own stuff as you can and plan to run or walk for cardio.
Grateful we got to stay here and will be back.
This was our second time booking this property and we mostly loved it. The location is excellent, being an easy walk to lots of stores and restaurants. Only complaints about our stay are that the floors were pretty nasty, like black feet nasty, the lock on the door is way too difficult to operate and a couple of the outlets seemd to not be working. Also, for the price I would expect better pillows. They were terrible! Other than that, the place is beautiful.

Nice
Great view and location...fridge doesn't get cold quickly and dryer didn't dry in one cycle took 2 or 3 cycles when washing towels.
The condo was just wanted we needed and everything was clean and comfortable. The only problem we ran in to was the fire alarm went off at 1am the last two nights due to a building malfunction. So we did not get a lot of sleep but otherwise it was a perfect stay and we loved the building!
The condo was nice but had way too many decorations. We had to put baskets, etc, on the floor in order to have room on the counter. I must say that it took my sister a while to find the indoor pool. Is located on the third floor but you have to go through the parking garage to find the one unmarked door that leads to the pool. There was only one little sign on the wall with an arrow. It was very creepy. The same problem with the fitness which was on the fourth floor and actually had no sign at all. The indoor pool was cold. Thought it should’ve been heated.
