Disliked: Location
Very clean!
Unit was very clean and just like the pictures! We were very disappointed with the parking. Many times we were not able to find a parking spot in the garage. Also, thought we would have a better water view and the unit was mainly a street view. Location was okay but far from other locations. Host was very quick to respond and assist but I wish we had been told that everything closes at 9pm.

Hey Christine! We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. We have began to implement parking passes to remedy the parking issue beneath the garage, we apologize for the inconvenience. We hope you enjoy the rest of your summer and appreciate you staying with us at Watermen's Retreat.
Convenient location, excellent food and bar with great amenities in our Condo
Great experience, esp if you're into kite boarding! Near secluded drive on beaches (permit required) whether you want ocean waves or calmer sound water.
