No actual cons. Anything that was questionable was quickly overlooked by the location and view. The best part about this place is that there is always a balcony in sun and always a balcony in the shade. It’s the best to be honest. Easy walking to everything and responsive hosts when messaged. The pics make it look like it’s brand new but envision more Spanish style walls and older with modern flare feel and updates. We’d stay here again. There were 6 of us so each ‘couple’ got their own bathroom and space. The upstairs bathroom is small but serves the purpose.

The kitchen was stocked with lots of things. The view was very nice. The space was great. Three bathrooms was nice so everyone had space to get ready. The stairs going upstairs is very tight. If anyone is walking around in the loft you can hear everything in the two bedrooms below it.

We very much enjoyed the beautiful and spacious penthouse at Aquarius. It was the perfect place for our group to be together. Everything we needed was within walking distance. The Free transportation bus passed by our place frequently. We will definitely hope to book another stay when we visit again in the future.

The overall stay was good. Building was quiet, penthouse was clean and roomy. Plenty of beach towels and beach accessories although a few of the beach chairs were broken and unusable (obviously the owners are unaware). Kitchen was well stocked as far as dishes/utensils. The one thing that was a bit disappointing was the lack of any sort of spices (salt & pepper) or even a few starter packages of coffee. Maybe having these things around from previous tennants is against policy? But, overall it was a great trip (aside from the masses of jellyfish on the beach).

Fantastic location and great views

Perfectly close to restaurants and shopping while still being quiet at night. Even the grocery store is within willing distance! The loft is a tight squeeze but the teens made it home and they had their own bathroom upstairs.

Beautifully equipped for family.

This condo was spacious and well equipped for our family. The views were phenomenal with 3 different balconies to catch sunrises and sunsets. We appreciated the many offerings such as beach chairs, umbrella, volleyball, etc. We met several other owners and all were friendly and ready with great tips for enjoying the island.

Wonderful location and superior customer service!

We stayed for 4 nights in the off season and had a wonderful time. The location was perfect. The condo views were amazing plus we had more than enough room to just stretch out and relax. The owners are 100% dedicated to customer service and were in constant contact with us to make sure we had a great vacation experience. We will definitely stay here again!

We're excited that you are planning on a return visit. The building renovations are scheduled to be completed some time in January. When you come back, the interior common areas will have a more coastal feel though out the building. It was great to work with you while planning your stay. Thanks, Mike & Bill

Beach Front Penthouse

We really enjoyed our stay at this location. The views of the beach were amazing. The place was nicely decorated and very up to date. All bedrooms were roomy and nice beds. There was plenty of towels including beach towels. The kitchen was well supplied with cooking items. The communication with the property manager was top notch and responded quickly to my requests. I would definitely stay here again.
