Great condo! We did have maintenance issues and they were quick to respond. Elevators are slow but being on 2nd floor made it tolerable. Overall, great trip and great condo!

This was our first and will be our last time staying here! We had to wait forever each time we got on an elevator to go to the beach, get stuff out of the car or go anywhere! My husband waited about an hour one time, JUST to get on an elevator!! This takes up way too much of your vacation time!!

Very nice place

We really enjoyed our stay. We had issues of almost getting stuck in an elevator and there is a lot of construction going on right now. Those were the only downfalls. It was really nice to be able to walk down to the beach and have free chairs & umbrella. $50 for parking was a little much but I would stay there again. Really nice place overall.

Outdated, not as clean

The room was sufficient enough for our family of 7 with 3 little ones with a spectacular view. However, it was outdated, drawers were broken, the internet was extremely slow, poor cellular connection, batteries were removed on smoke detector (hazard), the bathrooms smelled of mildew despite calling housekeeping, and the place wasn’t as clean as I wanted.

The view was beautiful, the condo itself was nice. The restaurant and the staff there were good! But the staff at the desk are rude and not helpful. There was a fire alarm and no staff knew what was going on or the proper procedures to evacuate the building. There are only 3 working elevators for the whole 30 floor building, which is not sufficient for the amount of people vacationing! The wait for an elevator could be 15-30 minutes.

We enjoyed ourselves . The only thing was the elevator . We were lucky to be on the 4th floor so we used the stairs more than the elevator . The best time to use the elevator is early mornings.

The apartment was clean and well equipped. The only complaint is that there were no beach towels, and the lights in the living room and porch didn’t work. We only had the kitchen florescent light. Otherwise it was an enjoyable stay.

The only problem we really had was the elevator situation. People would get on and ride all the way up to our floor (25) or higher, just to go down. So when we tried to get on, it was full. There were a couple of them out of commission, so I’m sure that didn’t help.
