Great communication with host, good location close to everything, easy beach access. It is an older unit with some upgrades and was very cozy for 4 people, but we made it work especially since we were just sleeping there. Loved the chairs on the deck to sit and enjoy the views. Nice washer and dryer, hvac needed cleaning. Out door pools were clean and well maintained, but very cold with it still have some cooler days/nights. Indoor pool is very small and outdated, however it was warm and an option on the chillier days when the kids wanted to swim.

Disliked: Communication
We arrived and the unit itself was fine for the most part (although the shower curtain obviously had nlt been cleaned). We were not, however, told that the entire complex would be under construction during our stay despite the fact that signs said it had been going on for over a month. We had specifically told the owner when booking that we wanted a relaxing stay. We were then unable to enjoy our stay because the construction was right outside our door and so loud that we couldn't even hear one another talk on opposite ends of the couch. We couldn't even escape the noise on the beach. There was no way for us to take a nap or relax in the unit as it woke us up at 8AM every day and lasted until at least 5PM every day. We even had to jump over wet concrete one day just to leave the unit. The elevators were also frightening as they were covered in insulation, the numbers displaying the floors were flickering, and the one closest to us made a loud scraping noise every time we went above the 5th floor. I messaged the owner about the problems with the construction after we left to see if we could get a partial refund due to the fact that we weren't told about this beforehand and could have made other arrangements if we were given any notice. He has yet to respond nearly two weeks later, however. The unit itself was fine, however, the unit should not have been rented out at this time. Or, at the very least, it shouldn't have been rented out without any warning of the construction.

We loved the condo and the location. The beach wasn't crowded. This is a perfect spot if you're not into the party crowd. The view is amazing. The only thing is the way the buildings are angled you don't get a view of the sunrise or sunset from the balcony. It's conveniently located close to stores and restaurants.

The owners are so friendly and great- we were able to check in early and they helped us with some questions we had. The view is amazing but the size is a little cramped for a family of 4. Other than that it is easy to hop in the car and you are shopping, restaurants, and grocery stores in 5 minutes or less. Recommend this place to others.
