We had a wonderful time staying here on our family vacation Dec. 23, 2013 to Jan. 6, 2014. The condo is updated and beautiful. It had every thing we needed. The cooler, beach chairs & towels, and the washer/dryer were especially nice to have. The location is ideal. We could walk to Maho and Porto Cupecoy. We loved the view and the sound of the Caribbean Sea from the two balconies. The pool/restaurant was nice. It seemed to always have several people around, but it was never too crowded. We ate lunch there one day. However, most of the time we were off exploring different beaches.
We always felt safe with the 24 hour security. One night we left an interior light on in the rental car, and a security guy was at our door within 10 minutes to let us know. He even went back down with me to help me figure out how to turn it off. They were watching everything that went on in the complex. Eris was friendly and did a great job keeping the place clean. We only saw her a few times because we were on the go, but we always knew she had been there.
Both bedrooms were very comfortable and spacious. The one overlooking the beach was just as big as the master bedroom. All three bathrooms and the kitchen are updated with tile and granite. There were plenty of towels, dishes, ice. Everything was great. We were actually pleasantly surprised at how nice everything was.
Simpson Bay is a short drive and has a lot of great restaurants. One of our favorite beaches, Mullet Bay Beach, is an easy walk from the condo. The beach is beautiful and they had a great food stand with ribs and chicken & drinks. The Atlantis Casino is just across the street. If you go there, be prepared to smell like smoke. It is fun though. There are several pizza/bar type places two blocks past the casino (next to a Chinese grocery store) that cater to the medical school students. We had some great food & drinks there a couple of nights. The students were gone over Christmas so it was pretty quiet in that area.
We hope to be back soon!
