We had 5 adults and an 11 month old. The floor to ceiling windows give way to massive, sea-green color views of the ocean. We loved the look of the place. The floors are all title. The kitchen had plenty of dishes and cups, but we did need to purchase dish soap, detergent and salt and pepper. Nice countertops. We brought olive oil, plastic containers, bags and wrap. The mattresses were comfortable, as were the sheets - good quality. The bathrooms were okay; nothing was bothersome. The amount of beach towels, bath towels, dish towels, and washcloths was tremendous - we loved having so much. We did not do any laundry. We did not hear any neighbors.

Be careful with the toilets and they are sensitive. The only negative is that the second bedroom's air conditioner made a loud clunk when it turned on and off, waking me up 1-3 times per night. It only bothered me, and I'm not a necessarily light sleeper. I'm not sure how to fix it. Suggestion: bring earplugs and a sound machine. The temp in the condo was easy to control; it felt great.

The Ocean Manor was very busy which was good for the overall feeling. It's not a 5-star, but a good 3/4-star. Nothing wrong, just not the Ritz. The pool was very nice and the beach was clean. You could walk for a good hour if not more either way, so morning beach walks are great here. It was never a problem getting chairs, food or drinks. Beach chairs are $5 and umbrellas are $10. We made good use with a chair or two and then laying on beach towels. We also rented a crib and high-chair and put the crib in the closet which made a great place for him to nap and sleep in.

The dinning table is huge with lots of chairs, including 2 bar chairs. The couch and 2 side chairs were very roomy. The TVs were perfect for movies. I also liked the big beachy decor, including the large colorful paintings. As already mentioned, the sheets and bedding were very nice.

It was super convenient to have WinnDixie across the street with a Redbox for movie rental. It takes you 20 minutes to walk to the Pier of Ft. Lauderdale by the Sea where there are good restaurants and ice cream parlors. We enjoyed Arubas (it's busy with live music so good early around 6). We also went to Coconuts which is closer to Las Olas Blvd and had a great apps and drinks at the bar with oysters and then sat outside for dinner by the yachts.

The condo husband-wife managers were super friendly, professional, and ensured that we had a good place to stay.
