Ocean Front Penthouse Condo on South Rosarito's Best Coast

Thank you for the nice review. The guards were never that strict. There's been some incidents with people entering the grounds to use the amenities so the HOA has instructed to the guards to be more diligent in their review of people entering the community. While that is good, it can also be frustrating if a guest forgets to print the access pass. I'll review the new rules to see if I can email the guards direct to avoid this scenario for future tenants. Thank you for the heads up. Oh.. and the elevator -- my nemesis. It usually works. But it does take a siesta from time to time.

Thank you for all of the kind words and nice detailed review. I'll respond to the cons for others. In short, I agree. The big fans have been giving me trouble and finding a qualified electrician has been a challenge. There is no AC, nor is that represented. It isn't needed other than maybe 2 week per year. The store bought thermostat does show AC as an option. I should put a label that reads "heater only." I do not include those outdated TV instructions in the email so they must have been printed in a drawer. Yes, the receiver went kaput on me. The TV is new and the speakers work fine meanwhile -- actually better than those old surround sound speakers. It's been an ongoing project to overhaul the entertainment system. The two BBQs not working is news to me. I will review that. The salt air eats them up. The patio is getting remodeled. They installed that nice slider on the north end to block the wind, but they still need to stucco and reinstall the porch lights. Yes the rooms other than the master do have the road going by -- like every condo along the coast. The bunk bed is more of an accommodation room bedroom/utility laundry room for kids although the bunks are sturdy up to 175lbs. This information is written in the property description on the website. The unheated hot tub can be an inconvenience without planning. The community is smaller than most. That means there isn't enough HOA revenue to keep the hot tub heated 24/7. The guest shower is also news. It is a new water heater so I think that I just need to turn up the temperature dial a bit. The border can be easy and it can be horrific -- especially on Sunday if you get a late start. There are apps that track the wait times. I always take the 2 out around east of TJ and go through Otay. Next time please text or call me -- I would've driven a BBQ down from San Clemente for you. :-)
