We loved everything about our room with the exception of two things. The bed pillows are not comfortable and there was no full length mirror. Other than those two things the condo was just perfect for us. We enjoyed having a balcony facing the beach and another facing the lagoon. The pool area is fantastic; well maintained and simply beautiful. Beach access is great, a short walk across the parking lot and street. We have found our perfect spot for beach getaways!

Perfect Location

This little condo was perfectly located near the beach! I could see the ocean from one balcony and the lagoon from the other. It had everything I needed to make meals in the kitchen. It was well worth the price.

Beach lover

My husband and I loved our stay. The condo was very clean. Need to update the pictures on the app, your furniture is nicer! There were only a couple things. Its hard to keep the front door closed. It opened several times by itself. Once we were gone for served hours came back to the door cracked. Once we were in bed, I got up to go the the bathroom come back its open. I think maybe its the latch. Also, I'm not sure why, bc the condo is very clean. There were quite a few gnats. I'm not complaining. We had a great stay and will stay again. I just thought you may want to know. Thanks , The Johnsons

Pretty good

Great view of the beach and the bay. Easy access to get into the room. The room had all the essentials. The only down fall was the sink did not want to drain and the air filter needed to be changed so it wasent se cool as I would like. Overall it’s pretty good and would stay again!

Perfect Location

The condo was a perfect fit for our mother/daughter getaway! The location of the condo was close to everything but away from the crowds. The building was quiet, the beach was not crowded and the views were amazing!! Really enjoyed watching the dolphins in the morning! :)

Great time!

Nice condo.Comfortable bed, nice floors and comfortable furniture. New countertops. Outdoor furniture was awesome. Wish there were chairs on the back balcony! Unit needs a new TV(small and poor picture). Also needs a tub stopper and hooks to hang towels, etc. Enjoyed our stay but had to cut our trip 2 days short due to the storm. I would stay here again but hope WIFI will be installed.

fantastic view and easy access to beach

this is a motel like structure, and this room on the fifth floor gives you a good view of the beach, and has a nice balcony. It is an easy walk across the street to the beach. There is a good shower in front of the building for cleaning off sand when coming back from the beach. There is a wonderful pool in the back with a hot tub. The guest and others around were friendly and helpful and the owners were too.

Won’t be back

Check in was at 4:00 they didn’t get my room cleaned until 5:20 so I was late to the wedding. Shower was dirty. Staff could not answer any of my questions and no one was on duty when I checked out Monday morning. First and last time at Jog and Racquet Club.

clean, cute and all around great but it needs wireless.

i loved it, minus no wireless. sprint is terrible there and the coverage is horrible. many units, if not most units around it had wireless and i had to bribe another unit for me to use their wireless in order to use the internet. otherwise, it's a fantastic condo that's close to the beach, very safe and clean and fit all of our needs. i loved it, minus no wireless. if you need wireless, i suggest you pass. if you don't care, then for the price it's fantastic.
