Very nice condo with a beautiful view- wall of windows. Loved sitting on the deck and watching the dolphins. Has a nice large dining room table area to sit and eat and play games with family. Excellent location, close to many stores, restaurants. I'm very picky about cleanliness and this condo was exceptional. Had a minor issue with the water heater, but property manager responded promptly and had it fixed within a couple hours. Would definitely stay here again! ##### Kerri H.

Everything was within walking distance. Right on the beach! I will say the only draw back was the garage size . If you have a larger vehicle (we were in an expedition) the parking garage is extremely tight. You always have the ability to pay for additional parking. ##### Kelsey E.

Unit 401 was exceptional! They had everything so nice, clean, and ready for us. The view was breathtaking from our living room, dining room, kitchen, and balcony. The only negative for us was parking, because we had to take 2 vehicles. And at this current time only one vehicle was allowed to be parked on the property. ##### Allison C.

Clean, great location, and beautifully decorated. Wonderful! Our kids loved it, including our 16 year old. Aging parents also came and loved it as well! We'd go back. Only issue was with check in. Our first two door codes did not work and we were going back and forth with rental agency for about half an hour before getting in the door. But things happen sometimes. Folks involved were very friendly. ##### Jonathan G. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Johnetta F. 22 Mar 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Girls trip! The One Where 2 turned 40\. The one where 1 turned 47\. We had the most fun!!!! The condo was beautiful!! The decorations were sooo awesome!! I walked around the entire condo taking pictures so we can show all of our friends and family how beautiful it was. We came to stay on the beach as many hours as we possibly could and this vacation we didn’t want to leave the condo. Thank you for letting us stay in your home. We will be back and we will only stay in 401\. From: “The Book Club” , The Sharon’s, And all other The Sisters. Aka Sharon Jamie Johnetta Sharon Vicky Micah and Jenay. ##### Johnetta F.

Only complaint was the very rude lady in the office when I went in to inquire about our parking passes. We had a garage with our condo and I was just wondering did I need to purchase another pass for my vehicle in the garage. Well she let me know rudely that we were only allowed 1 parking pass and that was all, instead of just explaining to me that I didn't need another one. I called the rental company and everything was taken care of. I never complain, but it was very uncalled for how she talked to me and my daughter. But she will not keep us from renting there again cause we will be back!! Thank you ##### Lisa A.
