Great view and location

The condo is really nice. Typical of island properties it sows some weathering but seems to be well maintained. For our 3-night stay it was perfect. We loved watching the ships move through the channel, and the dolphins! The beach is about ½ mile walk and The Donut Palace even less! Would stay again!

Beautiful view

Everything was beautiful the only thing was the pictures online made it seemed much bigger but overall we had a good time. Mattress was very comfortable but my kids said not so much the sofa bed. But we really enjoyed the stay, the fishing of the dock right outside and looking and the dolphins at sunset and the ships pass by. I would definitely rent there again if its just me and my husband with no kids just for 2 its worth it. Unfortunately the pool was not working for the first 2 days of our stay but luckily they got it fix by the 4th of July. Thank you Bay Tree!

The little fishing pier was an added plus for my husband. The only requests would be an added foot stool for the sofa and a little more deep cleaning in the bathroom. Otherwise perfect for us!

Condo needs a refresh !

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This condo needs a bedding change. The mattress and pillows are well worn and need replacing. It would also be nice if they provided two towels instead of one per person. The bathroom lavatory did not have a sink stopper.
