Overall the place was clean and security was very good. The view from the balcony was fantastic. It was nice having pineapple Willy next door and a few others in walking distance. There was though a couple small issues with the blinds in the main room and the sink stopper was broken. But everything else was great.

We’ve stayed at this complex a few times before. We love the Sunbird property. It’s right on the beach and not too big so the beach area is not near as crowded as some of the others. My fiancé loved the fitness center! This particular condo was nice. It’s on the second floor, which allowed us to use the stairs and not have to wait on an elevator. There were some things that could stand to be repaired, but that was mainly aesthetic. There was nothing broken that affected us. The shower head has some SERIOUS pressure, almost too much. I hate to complain about that though, since it’s usually the complete opposite. Over all, we were satisfied with the condo and would stay here again.
