I must say that I was extremely happy with the location the space and all the kitchen appliances as well as the entire experience. The staff was on top of every question and accommodating. I really enjoyed the whole experience. I also like to leave it the way the found it. I hope your cleaning crew was happy. Thanks again for such a good time.

Beautiful view from the Condo. Responsive Hosts - Our keypad stopped working and they sent someone to open the door and change the batteries.

The condo was very clean and the decor was beautifully done (loved the starfish). We had an issue with the front door lock (accidentally caused by us from the interior) and was unable to access the front door. Mike, property manager from Real Joy, was quick to the rescue. Mike was very kind, helpful, and had a great attitude! He’s an amazing Manager from a customer’s perspective. I highly recommend you indulge in this condo during your stay. I am very particular when it comes to cleanliness and this matched my expectation!

We had a great stay! We loved the condo and everything that Laketown Wharf offered! Check in was easy and instructions were clear. We would definitely stay again. The only downside to Laketown Wharf in general and nothing to do with the actual condo is the elevators. Overall it was a great experience!

My family and I really enjoyed this condo. My only con would be those dreadful elevators! Good luck finding room on one going down. I would stay there again though.

Thank you for sharing your feedback! We’re so glad your family enjoyed the condo and would stay again. We completely understand the frustration with the elevators — unfortunately, they’re managed by the building’s HOA, so we don’t have control over their operation. We appreciate your patience and hope it won’t deter you from visiting us again!

The apartment was incredibly clean and had everything we needed, the location was perfect, the view was so beautiful. The fact that we can walk to the beach is top, the amenities are really good, the host was very responsive and the instructions were clear! Definitely a great place to stay!

Nice place will
Book again. Looks just like the pics or even better. Nice views. Very convenient location. Directly across from Walmart and beach. Good food choices close as well.
The only thing I would say is that we were there during busy season Spring Break and a few of the elevators weren’t working so we ended up taking the stairs down and up some days just to get around which was pretty exhausting after relaxing days at the beach.
