The condo was absolutely amazing very spacious and clean. The parking situation was a little difficult if you are taking an oversized vehicle be prepared because parking is tight and there were a lot of compact cars parking in oversized vehicle parking but that’s not the hosts fault. The pool was very nice and the hosts were very responsive if we needed anything! Will definitely stay again for sure!

Spectacular unobstructed view of the ocean. A quick elevator ride down and boardwalk to the beach. The building provides carts to haul all your gear up to your condo, so nice! Walking distance to restaurants, ice cream, coffee, entertainment, and souvenir shopping. Loved the condo with two rooms with king beds! Made it so nice for two couples and kids traveling together. The washer and dryer in unit were a life saver. The condo has EVERYTHING you could possibly need and more. Bedding is so comfortable and cozy which was nice with the cold front we had to start our trip.
