Excellent girls' beach trip!
We had an amazing time! We enjoyed the outdoor and indoor pool along with much time at the beach! We loved walking on the beach at sunrise, eating and playing cards on the balcony, and swimming in the indoor and outdoor pools! The location on the second floor was perfect because the sky bridge to the beach was on that floor. We cooked during our stay and had all we needed in the kitchen.

Extremely Disappointed
Our first impression of the property was met by the ugliest and meanest security card who literally berated us less than 5 minutes of being in the parking lot. My mother is elderly and handicapped and I had parked and walked her to the room and then was going to park and unload. He came out and was screaming at the top of his lungs about my handicap sticker, hollering “where is it” and “you better get that hung before I have you towed.” He had no idea whether or not I had handicap plates and his behavior was unacceptable.
The white couches in the living room were absolutely deplorable and very dirty. The sheets on both beds were gross and looked as if they hadn’t been washed. The door to the condo had to be pushed shut to make sure that it was closed and locked. The ice maker made very little ice.
The elevator to the main pool from the walkway was down the entire time we were there and had been told that it had been down for a minimum of 10 days. My mother, remember elderly and handicapped, could not go to the main pool due to the inability to do stairs. I had to help a man pack his wagon up the two flights of stairs because his 5 year old little girl obviously wasn’t capable. When I was at the pool with my cousin we were harassed by the security guard walking around. She was borderline stalking and extremely annoying.
I was recommended to this place by a friend, but we will not be back to this property.

Great location
Condo has a great location on the 2nd floor and quick access to all the shops and restaurants. Our only complaint is the dryer destroyed two swimsuit tops bc the vent doesn’t stay pushed down and twisted them to the point of breaking. Other than that we truly enjoyed our stay! Thank you!

Overall nice stay
Just a heads up that you will need an umbrella only on the beach, and one is not provided in the condo. This is a beach rule this year due to lack of beach space after the hurricane (not properties fault). We enjoyed our stay, but I couldn’t imagine staying if we had flown. You need to provide a lot of your own things (sponge, dish soap, beach towels, coffee filters, beach umbrella, extra dishwasher tabs, laundry detergent, toilet paper, and paper towels). If you are planning on eating out every meal and not doing laundry than you should be good other than your beach stuff. We did love the location to access the bridge to get to the beach, to the trash shoot, view of pool, loved the bagged ice vending machine, balcony was BIG, loved the updated appliances (other than the dryer where your clothes get constantly caught and tangled on lent catcher that sticks up), great space in dressers and great closet space with hangers, and I loved that they had so many hooks to hang things up air dry. The construction never bothered us, and the property had lots of carts available for use of groceries and belonging to get from your car to condo. Be careful on the living room rug as it doesn’t have anything under it to keep it from sliding all around. I still don’t understand why parking passes and bracelets can not be left in the condo or at the front desk upon arrival. This added 40 mins to our already long drive. Beds were also very comfortable.
