Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We really appreciated that the condo was very clean on arrival. The management team did a great job communicating details and were very responsive to our questions. Only reason for the 4-star rating was because the beds were rather soft, lacking support. Probably need updating. Other than that, our stay was perfect!
The condo was very accommodating for our family of 5. We had great views from the 15th floor. I was worried the elevator would be a pain staying that high, but they were very speedy, never waited long at all.
Wonderful stay, the condo was nice and clean. Very welcoming with everythig you could need. Plenty of room.
The weather was super hot. Ocean had jellyfish purple flag warning whole time we were there so the ocean and beach were less desireable.Pool was clean. The Lighthouse is a nice condo to stay on vacation.
For a family of four and all adults, we found the space very accommodating for our needs. It is more spacious than other condos that we have been in the past. I also appreciate that there is a security office that is open for majority of the day and night and found them to be very helpful and friendly. The elevators and parking for the building was quite accommodating as well as entrance to the beach. We always felt safe and secured in our surroundings and communication was always prompt. The only reason that I did not give this five stars:- The master shower is quite small (for my preference)and is in need of improvements to showerhead and door. It also needs a good deep clean. It didnt deter from our experience overall, though I feel it could have been better.I would highly recommend this condo for a small family or a group of friends wanting to retreat to the beach.
The property owner was very easy to work with and the condo looked exactly like the photos. No complaints. My family had a great time and the location is just awesome. I would absolutely rent from this property owner again.
The view was gorgeous . I would suggest the bathrooms be updated for sure - the master shower had a lot of black in the corners (may need some bleach ). The master would be awesome if the tub and shower was taken out and turned into a huge walk in with several shower heads - it’s just too small as it is . Maybe new rugs in the bathroom changed out after each guest - it was a worn out . Great location and great food nearby .
Condo was great and just as expected. Owners were quick to respond to text messages and helped me out with an issue that had nothing to do with condo. Would definitely recommend this condo.
