Overall this unit, 505e, was wonderful! Most of the "negative" things were out of the owners control really. There are tons of board games and playing cards, several of the board games had missing pieces (out of owners control) but we definitely utilized the playing cards! There are lots of movies, although we never figured out the master bed DVD player. There is an ice chest for beach use and several beach chairs in the bedroom closet (a couple we had to sit carefully in, they're on their last leg). The balcony is wonderful! It not only covers the entire front of the condo but also wraps around the side and you can see the bay as well! Awesome to be able to watch people on the peer. The pools are great. Check in and out was wonderfully smooth. Would have liked to have had some more measuring utensils, there was a couple for cup, 1/2 cup, etc..., but none for teaspoon, etc...and I'm bad at guessing. There was a crockpot which is not something you get everywhere. The pans are mediocre, I might have scorched a saucepan but replaced it with a better one that shouldn't stick as bad. The oven worked ok but Some of the burners were iffy and we had to turn them off and on sometimes to work. Some of the cabinets paint was peeling and the oven buttons are really faded but it's just cosmetic. The master bed mattress was awesome but my brother and sister said the other beds were on the firmer side (fine for some people). I really liked having carpet in the living room.
The condo was really great. I would stay here again definitely and would recommend to others. We went in August so I can't compare but the beach chair guys were very friendly. We brought our own canopy and chairs and they didn't complain. One guy even helped me pull my wagon back up to the boardwalk!
