2nd time in this unit!

3rd time staying at this complex, 2nd time in this same unit. This stay was way better than the 1st, as they have added a bed. I love how the pool and the beach area directly in front of the condo is never crowded perfect location so much so close , you never have to travel far for anything !

We knew coming into the property that it was somewhat outdated, what we didn’t expect was a uncleaned shower, molded shower liner, rugs not vacuumed, stained sheets, dirty dishes, and everything coated in dust. We appreciated the abundance of kitchen appliances/ dishes and plentiful linens. The whole place just needs a good cleaning too to bottom, even simply wiping down doorframes, cabinets, and lightswitches/outlets that have dust and stains caked on them would make the place look a lot nicer. It could be a very nice property, just needs to be kept up with in a decent manner.

Needs improvements. Badly.

The property is outdated, which we understood going in, but it really lacked in cleanliness and being kept up with. I think the cleaning crew just wipes down the kitchen and bathroom, changes the linens, and cleans the floors, which as everyone knows, a property (rental or residential) requires more occasionally to be inviting and comfortable to stay in. The shower liner was covered in mold, mildew smell in the bathroom and closet, not vacuumed rugs, stains on the sheets, dust covering everything, dirty dishes in dishwasher, and soap splatter on the shower wall, all upon our arrival. There was dust and grime built up on cabinets and doors and splatters on the walls. If those issues are fixed kept up with, I think it would be a great place to come back to. Wonderful location and resort overall.

Paradise vacation.

I loved everything about these condos! The wonderful breeze through the hallways and balconies. There were so many private/not private special sitting places all around the pool! You can branch off from the crowd and sit with a group and chit chat. The pool was spacious enough for everyone! So close to the ocean! There was a snack bar, concession vending machines, ice machine, etc. the condo was super clean and looked exactly like the picture. It was the best vacation of my life! I will going back repeatedly year after year!

Don't pick this one.

Blankets were old, stained and dirty. Air was LOUD. Futons squeaked every time someone moved. Faucet in the shower was broke and leaked all the time. Door wouldn't latch without deadbolt. Elevators in building were broke when we first arrived. Vents were filthy. I generally do not give bad reviews but this was terrible.

Very poor condo

When viewing the pics of the condo we thought we were in for a treat with the futons and bed. Could not be further from the truth. The bed was as hard as the floor. One futon had a split in it. The other was hard and uncomfortable. The door lock did not lock at first. The entire first day it would not stay locked. The kitchen was straight out of 1950. During a rain, the hallway outside of the condo was ankle deep in water. The pool and beach were nice. I would not recommend this place to anyone. Extremely disappointed especially for the cost of the rental.
