Excellent room, sad building

The room itself was great. Clean, got exactly what we expected. The building hallways were really dark and lights were not turned on, so that was not cool. Looks like it's just been a really slow going on repairs since the hurricane a few years ago

Incredible View!

I had an amazing experience at Naum’s unit in Pirate’s Cove! The location could not be beat! Literally right on the beach. Unit was clean, comfy, and cozy! Naum communicated everything to me perfectly. The bed was super comfy and kitchen had just about everything you needed to prepare a light meal! I would definitely book this property again. Thank you Naum!

Perfect for our needs

Michael’s studio was what we had pictured in our minds that it would be. It served the purpose….a clean place to sleep and hang out for 10 days while visiting relatives in the area. Beautiful beach view and excellent location. Would definitely recommend this place. Host was easily accessible and responded quickly.

Nice place for our weekend get away

We needed someplace to stay for a quick last-minute birthday surprise trip. We've stayed at Pirates Cove many many times. We knew the pool and area were still under construction from the hurricanes so it wasn't an issue for us. This condo was clean and well kept. Would definitely recommend.

Condo is basic/older but PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION TO THE END!

The property was fine. Owner/manager communicates well, but the property was damaged during the hurricanes in 2022 (yes, three years ago) and the pool and fitness center are non-functional. Not a problem if you know in advance, but the photos and main desription showed several photos of a pool and fitness center. The owner stated it was "discounted accordingly". I passed over several properties that indicated no pool, but there was only one statement at the bottom of the page that said there was work being one to the pool. The beach is also very thin at that point (not much sand and a large tidal pool with stagnant water). The AC worked but was humid. There is a dehumidifier that must be kept running and constantely emptied. No bathroom fan. Beds creak but are comfortable. So all in all an "average" place but again- NOTE THAT THE PHOTOS OF THE PLACE ARE NOT CURRENT!

Life IS better here!

Our week was spent waking up to the sun rising over the ocean... is there anything better? Our condo was ideally located on the 5th floor which gave us beautiful, unobstrocted views. We even watched a rocket launch from the balcony! Everything to make our visit comfortable was provided and any questions readily answered by our charming host, Mr. Nacea.

Enjoyed our stay

We came Christmas week 2024. Although there was considerable storm damage in the area, most businesses were open. The area was not crowded. The host was a great communicator. Responses were quick, friendly and accurate. He provided all info we needed for an easy check in. The view from the balcony was perfect & unobstructed. The fitness center, pool and laundry facilities were not functional due to the recent hurricane damage. That is the only reason I gave 4 stars. Other than that, we had no complaints. I would definitely book here again.

Wonderful experience

Our stay at the oceanfront condo was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we booked, the host, Mr. Naum, was incredibly responsive, accommodating, and pleasant to communicate with. The condo itself exceeded our expectations it’s clean, well-maintained, and with breathtaking views of the ocean from the fifth floor balcony. The location was perfect for beach access and exploring the area. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a memorable beach getaway. We’ll be back soon. Thank you, Mr. Naum.

Great stay

I cannot say enough wonderful things about my stay here. I was in town due to a family emergency, and Mr. Naum, the owner, went above and beyond to make sure my experience was as smooth and stress-free as possible. He was incredibly communicative and helpful, checking in to see if I was okay and even offering kind words of encouragement during a difficult time. When I needed to extend my stay, he made the process seamless. Despite the circumstances, my experience was exceptional. I truly appreciate the care and attention he provided. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for not only a great stay but also a host who genuinely cares.
