Loved this condo. It was really clean and everything look updated. Check in/out was super easy. Parking garage and sky walk to the resort is a plus.
The view was amazing and the balcony was big. The bed was uncomfortable. At times we had to wait a while for the elevators to come up or it was too full and had to wait for the next one. Was told $80 for all day beach service. There were 2 beach chairs in the closet to use. The beach seemed less crowded that further down.
Overall 10/10 would stay again

The description doesn’t do it justice! This place is so nice! Very well stocked kitchen.
Also I own a cleaning service and out of pure work habit I check the cleanliness. This is the first condo I’ve ever stayed in that I couldn’t find one single thing wrong!
HUGE CREDIT TO THE CLEANING CREW!

The location is right on the beach and really close to the pier park where many restaurants are located. We didn’t need to rent a car so that was great!

The place is really bright and the kitchen is amazing.

We truly had a good time. I highly recommend this place.

The view from this condo was breath taking. The beds where super comfortable, my kids loved the bunkbeds. Only downfall was the elevators. Sometimes we waited up to 40 mins and then we sometimes was lucky and waited like 2 mins. So a hit and miss there. But all in all I would definitely go back.

Excellent property!
The condo looked just like the pictures. Very clean and convenient. The view from the balcony was wonderful. I was worried because our bedroom window was next to the elevators but no one was loud or unruly. One elevator was out the whole time but I feel like we got really lucky catching the elevators anyway. I would definitely rent again. Oh plus lots of delivery services to include instacart delivered right to our door!
