We were very impressed with our rental before we even arrived. I saw multiple reviews raving about the property manager, Cherie, which led me to specifically look for a unit managed by her. Cherie was wonderful answering our questions prior to our stay and was able to meet my in-laws for an early check-in. Having parking included with our stay was a huge help and benefit as well.
The unit was very clean and put together. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen came in great use! The walk to the beach was quick and easy and the Koi fish feeding twice a day was a highlight for our child (and me). Breakfast on the balcony, looking out to the ocean, was very relaxing and a great way to start our day.
I appreciated how secure the unit was. The property requires you scan the room card for entry from the street and the beach, and to scan again to operate the elevator. Plus, you only share the two elevators with a limited number of units (2 on each floor), so we had the elevator to ourselves all but once.
My only negative marks towards the unit are below, and I share these to be helpful for those planning to stay here so they can come prepared, not at all intended to discourage you booking the unit, as these are minor and possibly not a big deal to others:
1.) There are no blackout curtains in the second and third bedrooms. It's something I didn't think to ask in advance, but is basically a necessity (to us) when traveling with a small child. We were able to purchase and place black garbage bags over the windows to solve the issue, but again, I wish I had come prepared.
2.) The WiFi was fast in the living room, but almost non-existent in the bedrooms. We purchased a WiFi extender which helped, but still wasn't the best.
3.) The television in the living room came equipped with many cable channels, but unfortunately wasn't new enough to stream Disney+, which again, sort of a big deal when traveling with kids these days. The television in the 3rd guest room did have Disney+ though, so we just had our daughter watch her Mickey Mouse in there.
4.) The parking spots are pretty tight. It's possible to fit a mini van, but took some time and extra eyes to ensure we backed into the spot smoothly. If possible, I'd recommend not renting a mini van.
Would we book this exact unit again? Absolutely, 100%.
