Location was nice and grounds were very nice. Loved being right by the pool and it had full shade from about 5pm on. Beds were uncomfortable and pillows werent good. I would not call the bunks in the hallway 2 adult bunks. I had kids there but my oldest kept hitting his head on the ceiling above the top bunk. Master bedroom is very spacious and has a huge closet. Shower was nice. Condo provided pool towels which was nice. We enjoyed the view but would have preferred to be a little closer to the ocean. Condo was clean on arrival but had a slight musty smell like it had been closed up for a few weeks. Had one small issue our first night but it was taken care of quickly the next morning.

Room was exactly as described. Heated pool was always filled with families with kids. The other pool was too cold to swim. Was nice to have two pools though.

Amazing view, quiet location in the facility. Far enough back off the busier road to not hear the traffic yet close enough to hear the waves from dusk through the evening. Beach access is wonderful. Great stay

Communication from the host was excellent. We ran out of trash bags and they brought more quickly. I booked this property because I thought the bunk beds would work well for my kids, but they were very uncomfortable with thin mats instead of true mattresses. It still worked okay and they shared the sofa bed, but it wasn’t ideal. The location was good, the multiple pools and hot tubs were a hit, and the kitchen was well stocked with things to cook meals. Appreciated having washer and dryer in the until. Great beach access.

The property on the outside needs work but you can see it was being worked on

It was a very nice place to stay and the inside of the condo was amazing. The owner was very helpful and we had everything we needed in the condo. I would definitely recommend this place to other people.
