We loved the condo, the view, and the not-so-crowded beach. We truly enjoyed our stay here, and we will be returning. ##### Tiffany W.

This property was very clean and a great location! The beach was not over crowded and plenty of surrounding food options and grocery stores. The management was very helpful and responded to messages quickly and efficiently. We had some confusion with our check in process but the security at the gate was very helpful. The management team also called to reassure that we were taken care of which I thought was very professional and curtesy. We will definitely be back for another vacation! ##### Rachel S. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kelly P. 8 Jul 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness #### Great location needs a little TLC The location and the view were amazing. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, but the condo could use a little updating. The kitchen looks fabulous, but the dishwasher probably needs to be replaced it never dried the dishes. The bathroom fan didn’t work and it needs an update. Peeling cabinets and door difficult to close. Neither of the closets had hangers which was odd. Also, the entire place was dingy. As soon as we walked in our socks and feet bottoms were black. The dishes in the cabinet and silverware had food caked on them. ##### Kelly P.
