Property was great. Only issue doesn’t have to do with the unit but the restrooms by the pool. On busy days, those restrooms could use a daytime cleaning. Unit was clean and nice with a spectacular view. Highly recommended for couples or small families. Great property with easy beach access.

Just as Pictured

This condo was just as pictured. We arrived to a very clean welcoming place. We enjoyed it so much that we are planning to go back soon. The views from this condo were amazing! The building was quiet and the elevators were not congested as I have experienced in other places. Definitely a 5 star property.

Rest before the holidays.

We love the location of the San Carlos easy to walk to whatever you want or need. Check in and check out was super easy. The condo was nice, and the beds were super comfy. It could have been a little cleaner. We had to sweep up and clean the bathrooms some as well. All in all, it was alright. We would stay there again.

Perfect condo right on the beach.

Lovely condo right on the beach with plenty of parking. Unloading area was perfect even spaces open when busy. They have shopping carts available to make unloading your car and taking your belongings up to your condo so easy. They have 3 huge elevators so we never had to wait to catch a lift up to our floor. Location is perfect, right on the beach. Condo was gorgeous and clean. Perfect getaway. We will be back.

So close to the beach

Condo was nicely decorated, spacious, and clean. It was very close to the beach and just a short walking distance. The only negatives were parking is limited but we were always able to find a spot. Also, the pans and cooking utensils in the kitchen are pretty beat up. If you plan to cook a lot you may want to bring your own.

San Carlos 1408

We tried a new place this time and booked through iTrip and stayed at San Carlos Condos. The location was great. We could walk to various places like The Hangout and Sea N' Suds, which was nice. The condo was clean, spacious, and decorated nicely. The beds and furniture were very comfortable. Another plus was that there were three elevators, which resulted in short wait times. We highly recommend using iTrip and staying at this condo. Communication through iTrip was great.

Check in was easy! Sent them a text telling them we were there. They responded within 5 minutes. We were able to get into our room about an hour early since the room was ready. (No key, just a door code which is way better than trying to keep track of a key!) Getting the wrist bands and parking pass from the 3rd floor “lobby” was also quick. They said we could leave our bags and get ready for the beach if our room was not ready. We did have to park across the road a couple of times when the lot got full but that was not that big of a deal. The view from 1408 was great! Master bedroom included a king size bed and a big walk in closet. Second bedroom had a queen size bed and a decent sized closet. Dresser in each of the rooms could be updated but that sort of thing does not bother me. Rooms were clean and management was quick to respond to my inquiries.I recalled from a review I read that the door code stopped working for them before the 10am check out time. This happened to us too, but luckily one of us was still in the room to let the other people back in. Had an issue with the washer but they sent someone out and we got that resolved all within a few hours. We left some of our beach/pool gear there for the next guests to use. Hopefully, it gets used at least one more time. :)All in all, we would stay here again!Ohhh, beware of jellyfish. My daughter got stung as did numerous other guest we encountered while there.

Beautiful Condo

We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful and clean condo in the San Carlos building. This condo is in the perfect location for shopping, restaurants, and more. Our favorite location was the balcony overlooking the ocean. We plan to book this condo again in the future

Gorgeous!! But a downside

This condo is gorgeous and pristine clean!!! Everyone on the property was very friendly and helpful. Loved our stay; however the host fee was very high and almost doubled the cost of our stay. The itrip manager also never replied to a question I sent them on the first day. We will definitely stay here again if we can book through someone else.
