Easy parking, quit part of the community, friendly families, and the beach team. It is an older unit that shows the love that comes with that but it is not an issue. - I would recommend that you bring quarters if you want to use the laundry but other than that it was what was promised. ##### Raymond K.

The bathroom shower curtain is dirty, and the kitchen cabinets are sticky. The sink was stopped up and smelled bad. Very poor lighting in the entire condo.

I can only complain about three situations we experienced in this property. 1- There was a terrible smell we noticed once we got into the property. This smell didn’t go away. 2- The toilet in the master room was really bad, it won’t flush normally. It was so bad that we had to use the second bathroom all the time we were there. 3- I called the emergency number for maintenance more than 3 times. The line was always busy. ##### Elmer Z.
