mattresses were very worn. Fruit fly infestation that bothered us the whole stay even after treatment. Otherwise, everything was good. Ocean view was spectacular. Even in October, we were able to sit outside a few times and enjoy the view.

Great Location, Nice Beach and Pool But Needs Updating and Deep Cleaning
Positives: great location; walkable to nice grocery store and restaurants; great view; beach is not crowded because there are no high rises nearby; pool is clean and spacious, nice pool chairs and tables; clean and quiet property; spacious condo, nice to have two full bathrooms, kitchen disposal, new appliances
Negatives: condo is old and dirty; it needs a deep clean and fresh paint; furniture, walls, cabinets, doors and ceilings are covered in particles, dust and dirt; need to throw out the old fake flowers, runners, rugs, old magazines, old books and other items collecting dust and dirt; master bed is VERY UNCOMFORTABLE, old, creaky and too small for two tall adults which creates for an awful week of sleep; couch needs to be replaced, it's old, stained and uncomfortable from all the wear and tear; cushions on bucket chairs are old, stained, and dirty, need to be replaced; floor mats are gross; laundry room needs to be cleaned out, it's cluttered and dirty

Offseason weekend
Wanted oceanside/view. This was perfect.
Clean and we could cook if we wanted. Did not stay inside much except to sleep. Because it was ocean view we got a great view of sunrise.

Dirty
The place was not very clean. There was coffee grounds and filter left in coffee maker from previous renters. There was a pan in the oven that was rusty. Dirty dishes in the cabinet. The dresser in the one bedroom was missing a door. The dresser in the other room was difficult to open to put clothes in. Will not go back there again. Said that there was Netflix but it was parental coded. Came to find out that the owner put the lock on it. Very dissatisfied vacation.

Beach stay
Check in was a nightmare, we all had to be in the same place with very little parking. We emailed about a bathroom problem. No one responded had to fix it ourselves. Emailed again about parental lock on the TV. I received an email response that it would be addressed but was not. The place was clean and comfortable. In a good area too. Pretty good stay.
