Thank you for your feedback. I’m glad the location and size worked well for you. I apologize for the daytime noise from exterior work — that was scheduled by building management and unfortunately outside our control. We do our best to coordinate with management to minimize disruptions and notify guests when possible. Thank you for your patience, and we hope to welcome you back. Tammy RealJoy Vacations

Great stay!
We had a great stay! Beds were not as comfy as they could’ve been and furniture in bedroom seemed dated. Could’ve taken out the weird piece with glass so we could have more room for our suitcases. Wish there were washer/dryer in unit. But overall it was a great location and easy access to beach.

Very well kept facilities, minus a few exterior cracks. Will definitely look to stay here again!
The property was well kept. The pool was very clean, which is hard to come by nowadays with condominiums. The only thing I would say is the luggage carts were hard to get when we arrived, but eventually we were able to get one to finish unloading.

Perfect little spot right on the beach and super clean!
We loved the location! Right on the beach with a beautiful view and clean and comfortable amenenties. We had some issues with the guests below us with noise and not following the rules of the condo. We did not see anyone enforcing these and the office closes so there were more issues after hours. I did report this.

We loved our room and had a great time.
Good location to most places. Nice room. I liked that it wasn’t one of the huge resorts that are overcrowded. Nothing specific about the property was bad. Some of the other guests were obnoxious, but that’s not the fault of the property.

Spring Break 2022
Condo has been updated with new paint, new master bath. We found the condo very clean. Still a few pieces of old worn out furniture. Sofa is new but uncomfortable for an evening of kicking back and watching TV. Kitchen was adequately stocked for cooking. Could not find a can opener. Love the location and quiet area of the beach. We were here during Spring Beark 2022. The condo was very quite and relaxing. Pool was still closed due to repairs. They were filling it up with water when we left. Perfect quiet location on the beach. Easy access to everything without having to fight the strip traffic. Would definitely stay here again in this unit.

Loved the View
Better than expected. Some nice upgrades have been made that don't show in the pictures. The master bath has been very nicely remodeled, there is a new sectional in the living room, and there is new furniture on the balcony. The beach refurbishment out front was completed while we were there and the beach is beautiful. They are still working on the pool, but when they are finished that will all be newly resurfaced. The interior of the unit as well as the exterior of the building all looks to have been recently painted. The building itself seems to be very well maintained. The washing machine looks to be new, we had no issues.

Second floor condo, right by the elevators too. Roomy living room and two queen beds!
Bring extra linen if you have someone sleeping on the couch, or a throw blanket if you want one to snuggle on the couch with (there isn’t any extra).
Enjoyed this place so much!

Perfect location!
I loved how close the beach is to the condo. The views are absolutely stunning! This is a smaller condo but that was fine with us. There seemed to be some updating taking place outside of the building during our stay. Everyone we meet seemed to be pleasant. The particular unit we had was spacious enough for the 5 of us and had beautiful views of the ocean but could use some updating. The smell was terrible when we walked in. We had to buy some air freshener and spray throughout the condo several times to keep the terrible musty smell away. The sliding glass door was extremely hard to slide open. Also the rug needs to be replaced. It’s rolled up on the sides in several places and is a tripping hazard. I would definitely stay at the condo again but would try and get a different unit.
