The Condo needed a few repairs but otherwise was very nice. Needed to have beach chairs, towels, etc.

Thank you for your review and the four-star rating. I’m glad the condo was very nice overall. I’m sorry it needed a few repairs — we’ll have our maintenance team inspect and address those items. Thanks for noting the missing beach chairs and towels; we’ll add those to the condo inventory for future guests. We appreciate the feedback and hope to host you again.

This was a wonderful place steps to the beach. Watched dolphins play every day from the balcony or the beach. Beach service for a cost or Bring your own chairs and set up behind the service chairs. We really liked that bedroom windows could be opened to fall asleep to the ocean waves! The only thing I needed was a hair dryer and couldn’t find one anywhere in the condo. Oh well, I’ll remember to bring mine the next time. Yes, we will be back!!

Thank you for the great review. We're glad you enjoyed being steps from the beach, watching dolphins from the balcony, and sleeping to the sound of the waves with the bedroom windows open. Sorry about the missing hair dryer — we'll make sure one is available for future guests and appreciate the note about beach service. We hope to welcome you back on your next visit.

Wonderful location !! The place is so relaxing and the hues of blue T/O the condo just welcome you to the beach. Only one thing would be that we needed mixing bowls and 1 more wine glass. But that would not stop us from returning to this condo and place again!!!
