Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was beautiful and the view of the beach was outstanding! We had a great time on the balcony overlooking the beach, however during the day it was very noisy due to construction on the building next to us. That couldn't be helped. When we closed the sliding glass door we couldn't hear the noise from outside to thank you for the great windows. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were roomy.
