The condo was meticulously maintained, well appointed, very clean, beautiful/pleasant views off balcony/ perfect for the stay my daughter and I had. Orquera was wonderful in addressing any needs and replied very rapidly… a strainer, non stick pans, and a charging block for my charging cord (forget it at home) were purchased and brought over to the condo very quickly. Pool and gym were very nice. Location is about a minute from a beautiful Starbucks a couple minutes from a Dollar tree, Publix, and a few minutes from downtown with all sorts of fabulous cuisine and about 10 minutes to Lido Key Beach and the airport. Fabulous, very secure location/ building complex!

We had an amazing stay at this property. The Strand is so conveniently located to everything we wanted to do. I really appreciated the beach chairs as we went to beach everyday. I also loved having a beach bag. Communication was great when we needed help and guidance. We will see you again soon.
