Great condo

The condo was great, the only thing that wasn't great was the cleaning service they used, we had to clean it ourselves on arrival. Apart from that, we will definitely book it again

Relaxing weekend

We loved being so close to the beach and not having to either cross a busy street or drive and find parking. The only downside was the right quarters and the fact that there was a keurig instead of the listed regular coffee pot. If I ha know I would have brought my kcups

It’s ok

The check in process wasn’t too bad. The security guard was incredibly friendly. He quickly gave us our pass for our car. Sent us in the right direction. The condo was cute. I like the way it was decorated. It wasn’t very clean but livable. We wouldn’t be spending much time in there. The issues came when we came back to the condo after eating dinner, one night and the other security guard she gave out way too many passes, and there was no parking. She was incredibly rude to everybody. There was four of us trying to find parking and she kept yelling at everybody. We only had one vehicle for our condo, so it was very frustrating. They wanted us to park all the way at the opposite side of the property. They definitely need to get that ironed out so it doesn’t happen again. The other issue we had was the people above us were extremely loud day and night. They had children running all over the place being loud, waking us up multiple times throughout the night. Then one day we tried to take a little nap because we were exhausted, and they were extremely loud during the day as well. There should be reminders of people on upper floors to remember to be considerate of the people below them. Sad you have to remind people of that. Amazing access to the beach. Unfortunately the pool is heated so if you’re expecting to cool off in the pool, that’s not gonna happen which was super disappointing. So we didn’t really utilize it. All in all, it’s a decent spot.
