We had a great stay at this condo! The layout was perfect for our family and made it easy for everyone to have plenty of space while still feeling comfortable and connected. We really appreciated that a pack-n-play was provided—it made traveling with our little one so much easier.The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to prepare meals throughout the week, which was a huge plus. The view was beautiful, and we spent a lot of time enjoying the balcony each morning and evening. The pool was great with the wading area for our little one. Overall, it was exactly what we were looking for and we would definitely stay here again!
