Great location, amenities & access to the beach with no effort!

Great property! Clean, spacious and the location cannot be beat for a family. The only hindrance was the WiFi not being accessible, but we were at the beach or pool the majority of the time so it wasn’t a huge concern.

Great Stay Right on the Beach

Overall a great place to stay. Easy location right on the beach and a nice balcony to sit. Parking was easy, the kitchen was well stocked, and the beds were nice. The room was also above the pool area so it was easy for the my family to watch the little ones play while we were at the pool. It was a good condo for a good price.The only real issues we had was some of the electrical receptacles did not work and the water took some time to get warm. Nothing major but things to take note of.

Nice property

Nice property. Great location. Easy to get around. Very good elevator service. Attentive security. Met us as we pulled in. Checked us in quickly and explained how to get around the complex.Only a couple of issues...the patio door I the master bedroom was impossible to open. Seemed to be off track.TV in master bedroom had a few issues with connecting.

Fantastic

When we looked at the property we thought there were 2 floor level twin beds. When we arrived they were stacked. We were a group of women 75+ in years so that did not work. Everything else was great. Perhaps a few ties towels in the kitchen would be nice.

The property is great. Easy access to the beach, nice space, beautiful views, quiet neighbors, good location, clean enough.I definitely recommend the property. Our problem was the Avari Management. Before our stay they sent me several nice messages saying “we are here for all your needs/anytime, just call us”. Well, we needed covers. With 10 people sharing an apartment, the A/C will be running and at night some of the people will get cold. Covers and blankets are necessary. I called to ask for some assistance, and two very rude managers (both named Catlhyn) told me there was blankets in the property. We found 3 throw covers, very small. When I said it wouldn’t be enough, they told me I should have looked at the pictures of the beds, and if that white cover wasn’t thick enough, I should have brought covers from home…. I told the woman I couldn’t see how thick are the covers through the pictures, but she guaranteed me she could!Also, the sofa bed in the living room was nasty. It had food on it, and it’s broken. My 70 years old Mother in law sat on it and fell down, because it was missing springs that suppose to support the mattress. The mattress is basically “noon-existent” and my kid couldn’t sleep in it… I hope the owners can get it fixed. It’s a really nice place.. if you don’t need to use the sofa bed or covers, it’s a 10/10!

Response from VrboOwner on 17 Jul, 2026
Thank you, Juliana, for sharing your thoughts about your stay with us. We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the property’s great location, beautiful views, and overall cleanliness. It’s wonderful to know that you found the space comfortable for your group. However, we’re truly sorry to hear about the issues you faced regarding the blankets and the sofa bed. That shouldn’t have happened, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. We understand how important it is to have enough bedding for everyone, especially in a larger group. We will definitely look into providing more adequate covers and addressing the condition of the sofa bed to ensure it meets our standards. Your feedback is invaluable as we strive to improve our service and the quality of our homes. We hope you’ll consider staying with us again, as we would love the opportunity to provide you with a more seamless experience next time. Thank you for your recommendation, and we wish you all the best!
