The condo is nice. Fresh and clean smell upon entry. Has all of the things you would need. Easy access to trash chute, elevator and pool. I would highly recommend.
This property was very nice but could use a tad bit better upkeep with some things. The hosts where extremely attentive and helpful when I had questions or concerns. The Condo was spacious and great location. If you are wanting to stay for decent period of time do make sure to heed their warning of bringing extra toiletries and the kitchen items they list. I would recommend staying here or at another condo they own.
Condo was very spacious. Plenty of pots & pans, cooking was a breeze. Having a washer & dryer in the unit was wonderful. Beds were super comfy. Our grandchildren had a blast in the perfectly heated pool. It’s a lovely property and we enjoyed our two weeks there.
Overall, the stay was great! I did notice the toilet sometime ran in bathroom #1 (hallway) and the light bulb was blown under the microwave. These were minor in my opinion and did not affect our time spent in your rental. Again, we really enjoyed our time there and would definitely like to do it all again.

Thank you so much for your kind review—we’re so glad to hear you had a great stay and enjoyed your time with us!
We really appreciate you pointing out those minor issues. The light bulb has been replaced, and we’ve also fixed the toilet by replacing the flapper, so everything is now in good working order.
Thanks again for your feedback and for choosing to stay with us. We’d love to host you again anytime!
Our stay was excellent. The property was very clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The surroundings were beautiful and peaceful, making it a very pleasant experience for my family. Everything was exactly as described, and we truly enjoyed our time here. Highly recommended!

Liked: Communication, location
Overall, our stay was okay. Communication with the host was great, and they were responsive when needed. We really enjoyed the pool and spent a lot of time there during our stay.There were a few things that could be improved. The pillows were very hard and not particularly comfortable. The soap provided was extremely small. A larger dish soap or even a small ones sold at Dollar Tree, would be much more practical for guests.The outdoor ice machine stopped working during our stay, which was inconvenient. We also found the 10:00 AM checkout time to be a bit too early. The property was farther from the beach than we expected, so we had to drive rather than walk.We had some difficulty figuring out the temperature in the condo so we ended up leaving it at the setting they were on and didn’t make any adjustments.Overall, the stay was decent, and while there are some areas that could be improved, we appreciated the good communication and enjoyed the pool. I would go back because of the pool we had 2 toddlers with us.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the pool, especially with your two toddlers, and that you found our communication responsive throughout your stay.
We understand that comfort preferences, such as pillows and mattresses, vary from guest to guest. Regarding the dish soap, we provide a complimentary starter supply of essentials to help guests get settled. As noted in our pre-arrival information, these items are intended to get your vacation started and are not meant to last for the duration of your stay.
We're sorry to hear you had difficulty with the thermostat. Had we known during your stay, we would have been happy to assist. Likewise, although the resort's outdoor ice machine is maintained by the resort, we would have gladly reported the issue to resort management on your behalf.
Our 10:00 AM checkout time is listed in our house rules and reservation details prior to booking and allows our housekeeping team adequate time to prepare the condo for arriving guests. Our listing also notes that the public beach access is approximately three blocks from the resort so guests know what to expect.
Thank you again for your feedback. We're pleased you enjoyed your stay overall and hope to welcome you back in the future.
My wife and I stayed at the Palms with our 15 year old grand daughter and all of us had a ball! plenty to do for both adults and kids!

We loved the condo. Beds we very comfortable, lots of supplies included that were convenient for our stay ( dishes, towels, etc). The location was perfect. Close to many restaurants, shops, grocery, and right across from the most beautiful beach. It was very quiet with very respectful neighbors. We world go back!!
We enjoyed our stay. Property was exactly as described and comfortable. We had one question come up and host was very responsive and helpful.
We weren’t looking for a beach view experience so location was just fine for us.
Balcony was comfortable & relaxing.
We came to celebrate my 40th birthday! It was amazing! We loved sitting on the patio people watching in the evenings, swimming during the day, and really enjoyed the bar/ restaurant! We will return one day!

We’re glad you had a wonderful Birthday/vacation and enjoyed our vacation home.
Thank you for booking with us, Come back soon.
From the moment we stepped foot into this condo we knew we made the right choice! Beautiful view! Condo is as pictured! I hate to give it a good review because when I want to go back you will all have it booked up!!!
This property was perfect. The location makes it a prime spot to visit, close to the beach; and the unit comes with everything you could need to enjoy your trip. The condo is beautiful furnished, fully equipped, and the beds are really comfortable. In addition, the resort is very nice. We enjoyed the heated pool and hot tub daily. Everything shuts down during the off season which is a bummer but that has nothing to do with the unit itself. Highly recommend. Thank you for the stay!
