Fantastic location right on the beach!

Great place to stay, location on the beach couldn’t be better, nice condo and amenities. The only reason we didn’t give it 5* is the checkin is onerous. You have to find the location and lockbox just to get a code.

Hi Nancy, thanks for your review. We are happy to know of your delight! This really is a fantastic condo. Check-in instructions are provided in advance of your arrival so that any guest is well-prepared and knows what to expect. This unit is equipped with keyless entry so there are no keys to return upon departure. Simply follow the provided self-checkout instructions and head on home, no stopping by the office (no keys to return, making it a breeze). It is easy. Hope to see you back again soon!

Perfect Little Getaway

The condo was perfect for our anniversary getaway. Decorated so cute and unit was clean. Views were amazing and it was close to great restaurants. Definitely on our list to visit again. Only complaint we had was the elevator on our side of the hotel was down for maintenance so we had to walk to the middle elevators. Not terrible but a small inconvenience that I know couldn’t have been avoided.

We’re thrilled to hear your anniversary getaway was perfect and that you enjoyed the cute decor, stunning views, and nearby dining hotspots! We’re sorry about the elevator hiccup—looks like even the elevators needed a little romance downtime. We appreciate your understanding and are glad it didn’t dampen your celebration. We can’t wait to welcome you back for another fabulous stay. Until then, may your days be as wonderful as your getaway!
