The unit was lovely. Loved having the private elevator. Master bath shower was really fabulous. Furniture was comfortable, view was great. Mattresses were okay. I had asked the host ahead of time 2 questions... Was the coffee maker a Keurig and did the owners provided beach chairs. I was told the unit had a drip coffee maker and beach chairs were NOT provided. So we brought them which took up a bit of space in the car. We arrived to find a Keurig coffee maker and a closet full of beach chairs and sand toys. The other issue was that the entire resort was without water for an entire day as a pump was being replaced. We did not receive any notice of this and when we asked the contractor performing the work he said it was a pre-planned event. It would have been nice to know ahead of time.

The condo is great! Everything was clean, had amazing views, and direct beach access. We did have to buy our own beach / pool towels to use. You can rent an umbrella/beach chairs or take the chairs from the condo to the beach and save on the rentals. Overall great stay and would book again!

The condo was exactly as described - beach is absolutely beautiful! It does seem as if you can’t use your own beach chairs and the rentals can be a bit pricey but it honestly makes for an uncluttered beach atmosphere which was very nice. I would definitely recommend this property

The property itself is excellent, very comfortable, easy to get to beach, beautiful views. However the list company, Best Beach Getaways, is horrible at communication. Make sure you call them before you arrive to confirm whether you can go straight to the property or if you need to go to their office to get the keys.

The condo was wonderful and just as pictured. We loved the location. The resort was great with the pool and hot tub being everyone’s favorite. Our only complaint was having to drive the 6 extra miles to get the keys and to take them back. If they could have a drop box there at the property this would definitely be a 5 star rental.

Wonderful unit but getting the key cards was a nightmare. It’s off location and the lock box is ancient and doesn’t unlock as it should. They expect you to return the keys there , again not able to get it unlocked had to stuff the keys and wristbands in the crack of the box door because the box wouldn’t open. Not fun times at 6am.
