Great location. Far enough away from busy beaches but close enough to easily get to anything. Quick walk to the beach with umbrella services available. Pool area was very nice and condo was very clean! Everything was as stated online. You do walk into the bedroom from the front door but there are doors for privacy from the other areas.
