Everything about our stay was very good. The condo and its amenities are great for a couple. There were two weeks worth of construction (balconies) underway on the unit to our right and it was very noisy. Perhaps that is a challenge to predict, but the noise was a distraction. There was also a loud HVAC outdoor unit on the lower left that I reported twice and still happening 5 days later when we left. As far as what the owner is responsible for, everything was very comfortable and easy to navigate.

The condo was perfect! Well appointed and inviting. Exactly as the photos show. After cruising for two weeks and then seeing snowmageddon coming, we booked quickly. And it did not disappoint.While I'm not a vacation launderer, having the laundry was nice. We enjoyed cooking "at home" given the crazy cold. Our only regret was not being able to enjoy the deck overlooking the ocean. The welcome call from Andrea was a very nice touch. We book VRBO often and this might be a first. We highly recommend this condo and mgmt company.
