Was really please with the location right across from the beach and in walking distance to restaurants and bars. The beds were very uncomfortable hard to sleep in and on our last day we found roaches in the master bathroom I was happy we were leaving cause at that point.

Nice condo with all the amenities.

Loved the feel of the space. Close to crosswalk to get to the beach was a plus. I loved the patio in early mornings. Was a bit noisy in evenings with traffic.

The accommodations worked out well for our family. It would have been helpful to have things like an iron, salt pepper, zip lock bags, etc. as well as more essentials like paper towels, toilet paper, trash bags, dishwasher and laundry detergent available, especially for a 5 day stay. The north bedroom needs a mirror on the wall, and the main bathroom needs a hairdryer. It was a great location. I would stay there again.

Great Condo

The condo was very clean and had everything we needed during our stay. The condo was perfect location!! Right across the street from the beach and Wal-Mart is also right across the street which is great if you forget something. The weather was a bit cooler so we really enjoyed the hot tub. I would highly recommend this condo.

Nice location, beautiful views

The space is easily accessible and beautiful condos. The amenities onsite are nice and the pool is fun. Easily accessible to local shopping, the seawall, and plenty of restaurants! The condo had some issues that were not properly addressed while we weee staying there and it smelled very musty.
