After reading some reviews I was a little worried Ln for what they said about the elevators and parking. But thank God I took it anyway because I didn't have a bad experience like others. As for parking, it is true that it is somewhat uncomfortable to go up and down but it is not something that change my opinion about this place, I went in a Toyota Tundra and still I do not complain. In the elevators we expected 1-3 minutes maximum. When we stayed it was raining and we could still enjoy the view, the beach and the indoor pool. I would definitely come back.

Condo was exactly as described. Absolutely beautiful views of the gulf. Plenty of room for our small family of 4. Kitchen was well equipped. Only thing I can criticize is the bedrooms get stuffy if the doors are closed, so may want to leave those open when sleeping. Otherwise it was a wonderful stay and the host was very helpful.

Location was great! Beautiful views and condo amenities were nice. If you park in the garage be prepared for tight turns and close calls plus about 7-10 minutes to the spot. Not an issue if you intend to walk or stay at the condo mostly. Would stay again for sure

Parking was great
This unit was great for our 3 person family. From the parking spot only 8 steps from the front door, to the large balcony with great views of the pool area and beach/ocean, it was a great way to spend 6 days of our vacation. We had an issue with the TV while we were there but the property Mgmt company had it resolved quickly. The only other feedback we have is the ceiling fan in the master bedroom was noisy, and the 2nd bedroom beds are far smaller than they appear in the picture.
