The building and outside layout:
1. The condo itself was situated in a high-rise building. It was located on the intercostal and had good security.
2. There was a nice pool area with an adjoining picnicking space and several gas grills.
3. The building had a nice workout area and showers. There was a separate entryway for men and women.
4. The parking spaces were extra wide and were good for maneuvering.
5. The elevators were fast and convenient.
6. The association provided different types of carts and rolling baskets for our convenience. A very nice amenity. It helped in bringing in and taking out our belongings.
Things we liked:
1. Communication and response was excellent. 5 stars.
* Texting was good for me because of my stroke 4 years ago. It left me nearly deaf.
* The FYI emails were timely.
* The microwave was replaced immediately, and we really appreciated that.
2. The master bedroom bed was comfortable. 5 stars.
3. The master shower — head/control — was newer and worked great. 5 stars
4. The kitchen was well stocked with necessities. Paper towels, pots, pans, utensils, etc. 5 stars.
5. The view was outstanding. The sun coming up on the horizon was fantastic. 5 stars.
6. Taking out the trash and recyclables was convenient. 5 stars.
7. The layout of the condo was good for us. 5 stars.
On the other side, the unit didn’t have its own washer and dryer, which was a minor inconvenience. There was, however, a coin operated laundry on the same floor, a couple of doors down from our unit.
There were some things we didn’t like, but overall we gave this unit a star rating of almost 4. This rating can be improved significantly with just a couple of tweaks. The stay had many good points. We would stay here again.
