Overall, had a great stay! The ocean view, the updated condo, the proximity to the beach/pool, all won us over! Check in was easy. No issues while at condo and was better than expected. Plan on checkin being at 4pm, as listed. We had false hope of getting in early and our milk turned into sour cream during our 2 hour wait after getting groceries at 2pm. Here are pros and cons, but pros definitely outweigh the cons! You'll enjoy this property! Would stay again!
Pros:
Enjoyed the amazing ocean view.
Beautiful updated decor.
VERY CLEAN! Also-Has multiple brooms to sweep after yourselves.
Huge floor to ceiling windows for an amazing view and nice blinds to close (if needed)
Stocked kitchen/bathrooms with plenty of paper towels, shampoo, conditioner, soap TP, dish soap for 4 days. Needed to use a few extra dishwasher pods and our laundry detergent/softener. Had some food storage containers. Bring seasonings & coffee filters. Nice pots/pans/etc. Decent knives.
Easy walk to beach - bring beach towels!
Nice WARM heated pool with a HOT tub
Plenty of outdoor extras including a beach chair/umbrella/small popup cabana, sand toys & tennis racquets/balls
Beds/bedding was very comfortable with good pillow options
Spacious showers with good pressure.
Nice outdoor grills by pool to use, if needed
Extra fridge in living room was helpful
Shared library on 2nd floor had great options for all ages. Great kids section plus a nice puzzle library
Air conditioning worked well when needed!
Free wifi access (little spotty at times) and some cable(less) TV/streaming options
Nice washer/dryer combo! Worked great!
Dishwasher worked great!
Cons:
Rear (bedroom) balcony-only view of backside of hotel next door. No sunset views.
No ice trays or ice maker. No ice machine in building. Big downfall! Had to get creative.
No electrical outlets at pool area. Could not work there while family was in pool.
Split level floor plan made for carrying groceries/laundry upstairs
Patio table is rusted and hard to use with curling/peeling paint
Wi-fi in condo was hit or miss at times.
H2O was never very cold and with no ice was not easily cooled
H2O also had less than desirable taste but found RO water in 2nd floor library that we used for filling our water bottles
No board games/cards/dice to use if rainy - puzzle/library on 2nd floor is an option
No end tables on sides of all beds. Again, had to get creative.
As you can see, all cons are very nit-picky. Not deal-breakers but nice to know when renting. All the pros greatly outweigh the cons! Amazing spot and look forward to returning!
