Perfect place to visit and relax. Our room was clean and very comfortable. The only request I would have would be more provisions for toilet paper and trash can liners. The resort provides one trash can liner but requests that you bag all trash prior to putting down the chute. When we needed assistance the resort was very prompt with helping us. We had a fabulous time.

After being told a couple days before our trip that the ac went out in our condo, Linda from rebooking went ABOVE and BEYOND along with her boss to make the situation right and get us a condo ASAP that met our needs. Our condo was above our expectations, and we greatly appreciate her kindness and her boss kindness of fixing us up right. Forever made a loyal customer at this point!

heaven with a touch of earth
we loved the complex. loved the condo. everything you need was right there. BUT, could use more supervision of kids in the Pools along with rule enforcement. there were kids (and I mean 10 to 12 at a time)jumping in the hot tub with toys, splashing. No real adult supervision and not very relaxing for an adult who wanted to use the hot tub. Also had a leak in the jet tub in the condo that resulted in an industrial fan left to dry the carpet and our inability to use the tub the rest of our stay. While we were compensated for a nights stay it make the stay in the room less comfortable. also the person who confirmed the room was up to excellent condition obviously missed the sopping carpet present on our arrival. Again we loved the area and would come back again but I believe better observation is required.

This room provides a great unobstructed view of the ocean.
This room provides a great unobstructed view of the ocean. Sun on the deck most of the day. Nice pools and fitness center. Easy access to dining and shopping. Water sports are available with a short drive. The property is well maintained and has on site security.
One complaint. The master bed and couch need a change. My wife and I found them to be very uncomfortable.
Overall a great place. Look forward to another stay.
