The unit was nice. Location is perfect and amenities are wonderful. The unit was clean however the furniture needs a good professional cleaning or needs to be replaced. We had a wonderful time and would return.
Very relaxing decor, great views, easy check in, lovely lazy river and pools. The skybrige to the beach was very convenient, and the location is within walking distance to many fun things to do and a lot of great restaurants.

Jennifer, we are happy to know that you had a great time while staying in this nice, well-located one-bedroom, two-bath condo that was clean. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
Super Cute Condo! Fit 6 (2 adults, 4 kids perfectly)
This condo has everything, place for 6 to sleep, 2 bathrooms, and washer and dryer. We were able to cook quick meals and the beach and lazy river were clean. We also booked a pontoon boat with double slides right next door and was able to travel that day to CRAB ISLAND, which was a little piece of paradise with crystal clear water.
Nice place and perfect location between the ocean. We came down to relax and fish and it did not disappoint. After going offshore we did some fishing on the resorts backwater which was fun. Lazy river and pool was great just wish the pool was open to swimming earlier in the morning. Check in process was ok. Found location but had a bit of trouble finding our unit and room and key code was way too long to remwber to get into the unit. Overall it was very nice place and we will be back for sure again
Online looks great, until my wife had to clean for several hours upon our arrival due to everything being dusty. Long hairs all over master bed, short hairs on clean bath towels, dark color stains on decor pillows on master bed. Also towel rod in master bath was missing but wall anchors were still there. I guess no need to fix it. Also my wife had to dry and fix her hair in hallway due to ground fault receptacle in master bath not working. Maintenance said they would come fix issues but never showed up. Kitchen light wasn’t working which was fun in the evening preparing food. My wife and I looked the property up prior and saw where there was a fitness room, but our condo owners decided to not pay extra for that also.
I have family that comes there every year and it was highly recommended, but after our week there I’ll never stay here again.
