Nice Place with a few issues

The apartment is in a very good location close to the beach. We did have a few issues during our stay. The worst one was of no fault of the owner, but I guess you always take a risk when you rent with people above and below you. The people above us were extremely noisy. They sounded like a pack of wild animals at times. They allowed their children to run from one end of the apartment every morning stomping at about 6:40 am. We complained several times. It did get a little better, but it still continued. The Wifi at the apartment has a connection issue. We had to work on the TV and router constantly. I finally just started using a hot spot on my phone to use my laptop. The shower control knob in the master bath is about to break and it needs to be replaced. We got through the week with it, but the handle that you use to turn it on and off with is in very bad shape. Lastly, the two frying pans that are there need to be thrown away. The pool was nice and clean. Nice place. Just needs these issues taken care of. Our owner liaison was very nice and helpful during our stay. She tried her best to e accommodate us. I don't usually complain, but I felt that these things needed to be taken care of for the next person that spends nearly $4000.00 for their family vacation.

Beautiful apartment with great views

Our family had a wonderful experience. The apartment is beautifully decorated and the view from the deck is amazing. The owner even stocked the bathrooms with body wash, shampoo and conditioner as well as feminine products, and toothbrushes. We will definitely be staying here again
