Condo with amazingl views
Renting this property was easy and checking is was simple too. Master bed mattress very comfortable and bedroom was spacious. The condo lacked some TLC though. In our opinion the bath towels are old and rough and bed sheets probably need to be replaced. We also found it kinda odd not one spare TP roll or a single laundry pod in the condo. The entire condo was not sweeped and of course not mopped. Lots of large food crumbs like chips and piles of sand. Most of the frying pans need replacing except one. Only one kitchen dish cloth and only kitchen hand towel. Other than those few items we would definitely rent this condo again.

Everything was on point when renting from from Kim's condos. The team was very professional and when I needed to check in early they made it happen days ahead of time.

Great condo to rent
We enjoyed our stay in 1201 Condo. Everything was clean and updated. The beds were comfortable. The view is amazing! Only complaint is only one elevator was working and hot tub was not working either! Was told it’s been 7 weeks with only one elevator working.
