Wonderfully equipped kitchen, and it was nice to have extra trash bags in the kitchen trash cans! The elevators were fast and our master bed was comfortable!! The only problem we had was not knowing that the boardwalk entry fobs were hanging on the back of the door. It would be helpful to list that in the check in process. We called the property office and were told that the next morning but couldn’t get out on the beach upon arrival because we arrived after office hours. We are already planning to go back next year!! ##### Thomas F. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ---
