Fantastic views and comfortable stay. Beds are very comfortable. I think it would be a bit small for 6 people in the living room area, also there is no separate dining area. But great for 2-4 people. Would definitely stay here again. Great service from Goodstays.

We were blown away by the view from the condo. It was luxurious, yet comfortable, and easy to maintain. We had 3 adults and 2 kids and had plenty of room and a very well equipped kitchen. Our host was amazing and very helpful. My son keeps saying this was his favorite stay of our trip and that we should move into this condo, haha! Highly recommend. Just like the pictures!
