My husband and I stay at the Plantation resort every year in October. This year's condo provided a beautiful view of the ocean from the fourth floor. The condo provided all the basic kitchen necessities to cook our daily meals. It had plenty of blankets and linens as well as towels and washcloths. If I had to put a negative it would be the water pressure and the slow draining tub but it wasn't bad enough to not recommend the condo. We had an enjoyable stay as always.

Would stay again

Photos made the condo seem a little larger than it actually turned out to be for a family of 4 (boys 10 & 13) but we had sufficient room and there was so much to do at the resort and nearby we didn't do much more than sleep in the room.

Summer getaway

We’ve stayed on this property in several different units over the years and have enjoyed every experience. This unit is likely the cleanest and most updated of any we’ve had the pleasure to stay in. We were very impressed with the utilization of space, considering the limited size! VERY functional and adaptable. The direct view of the beach makes up for the distance from the pools and boardwalk. Would definitely stay here again.
