Spring Break Beach Vacation

It was a beautiful, cozy, oceanfront condo! Even smelled wonderful when you walked in! Plenty of sleep area and we had young kids, And a side note, a rented golf cart will get towed if put in the parking garage for the night. Responsiveness was amazing, would definitely visit again.

Lovely Condo

The condo was very clean, nicely decorated, very comfy beds and in a good location. Had several pools for the grandkids. The elevators were very fast as the condo is on the 18th floor. We also liked the room darkening curtains in the bedrooms. Will stay there again sometime.

Best vacation ever!

We loved this condo, the location was great, view was amazing. The pictures are very accurate. Rooms are good sized. Kitchen is perfect, all utensils available that we needed. The balcony was my favorite part of the room. Everything in the room worked well for us. We would love to stay here again!

Wonderful condo, resort very busy.

We loved the condo. Large rooms, great balcony. The trek to the parking garage was confusing at first, elevator wait times were a little long at times. Pool and beach were nice, but way too busy for an older couple!

This was a return trip for us. We love the condition of the beach and the location.

We rented this property just a few weeks prior to travel based in the units availability. Everything went smoothly. We booked the property, it was accepted. All the agreements were handled online and check-in information was provided in email. We had all the needed codes when we arrived and all the passes we needed were waiting in the room.

Best balcony around.. a few issues but we still had a great stay!

The balcony is like an extra room& bear around! The condo is just as pictured in the listing! We really liked how there was an xtra pool across the street tho it was a little difficult to get to & do the elevator changes with little ones & a stroller.. .not a big deal with older kids but it wasn’t really clear or maybe I missed it when I booked but fyi the parking garage is across the street & you take the sky bridge over to ur condo then you have to go down the escalator or elevator to get on another elevator to go back up to the condo.. nothing too crazy but a little tricky/difficult with lil ones & a stroller & something someone might need to know if they have a guest who is not as mobile or doesn’t want to do that much walking. The condo was nice! The master bedroom is amazing with a giant closet/bathroom/tub!!! Bunks were fun for the kids.closet 4 beach stuff & closet for laundry was nice. The bathmats need to be cleaned after each stay&clean out drawers bc there were hairs in there & that is gross. We had an issue with the AC going out & tub clogging & it was very inconvenient/unhealthyalthough fixed I am upset no one has contacted me back about it.We spent a lot of $ to be in comfort, but ended up not having AC for a few days & 2 of us have asthma. condo is right off of the elevators!..elevators were very fast, & there were many carts to transport luggage would give 5 stars if we didn’t have the AC issue & someone would respond & make this right

We loved the condo! Everything was just as we expected from the pictures. The email that came with the check-in procedure didn’t come from VRBO so when I was searching for it on my phone it didn’t show up. Once I located the email everything was very easy and straightforward. Our beach vacation was AMAZING!

Not my favorite

The view from the balcony was amazing. However, we had some issues with cleanliness. The water/ice spout on the fridge had black mold on it and all around it. The linens were nice but we were only provided 2 blankets, in addition to the sheets, and they were extremely thin. No comforters or throws at all. We had to request extra blankets, even though they knew we had 6 people staying. And if I had known that zero seasonings (including no salt, pepper, sugar…anything) were provided, we could have brought them from home and saved some money. Maybe it’s not typical to provide those for guests, but any other time we’ve stayed somewhere, we had them.

Our Family had a wonderful time at this condo! The beach is so beautiful especially from the 18th floor. The only downfall about the stay were the elevators because they were working on them but other than that we would definitely stay here again!

Amazing vacation.

The place was perfect for us. The location was amazing. The view was beautiful. The building had everything we needed. The pizza and ice cream place inside the building was great. It was really nice having a full starbucks in the building. Communicating with the owners was easy and quick. We would definitely stay here again.

Yearly Beach Vacation

Overall we had a very nice time this year. The condo was very accessible to what we wanted to do here. If I were to say one thing negative, it could have been cleaner and maybe a little more organized. We never did find the fan remote to the master bedroom, and found some things left behind from previous guest. The community and beach were wonderful. See you all next year.
