For our first family vacation this was an amazing place. The views are the best. We only had trouble when we arrived as the street was closed and we could not get to the parking spot. We would definitely stay here again.

Mermaid Penthouse was perfect

The mermaid Penthouse was perfect for our short 4 day vacation. The view from the front room is incredible, the patios was perfect for cool nights and sunny days. Could not have asked for a better place to spend the weekend.

Great location, needs updates

This property was an amazing location. Right on the beach and with amazing views. The upkeep was not great: moldy shower curtains, rusted shower curtain rods and broken hooks, kitchen cabinets hanging crooked, dirty light fixtures, front door lock only worked from the inside, and the common areas were filthy and covered in sand. I don't regret our stay, it was a good value, but we won't be back.

Awesome Condo and Location

The condo was amazing. Gina was extremely helpful. There is even an elevator to get to the third floor. You can hear the waves crash all night as you sleep. Great way to unwind! The front deck was a great place to stare at the ocean and watch everyone go by. Looking forward to our next visit.

Perfect location, right on the water

You definitely pay for the location. The house is a little outdated and dirty but it is a beach property. We never got checkin instructions prior but the manager did send them to us in a timely manner, once we were there. Everything in the kitchen, that’d there for you to use, is pretty old and dirty. Overall, we went for the beach and being able walk right across the sidewalk into the sand was amazing.

Updates to Property

Location was excellent! Great views, walking distances to shops, restaurants and the beach! There were several things in the condo that with a trip to the local hardware store and a handy man that needed to be updated or replaced. (Ceiling Fan blades, shower bar, bathroom light fixtures, shades in the main living area etc.) Just some everyday updates that would of made the property more attractive.

Beautiful views of the ocean and beach right in front of the condo. Love that the windows open up! Overall a great stay. With COVID-19, we ate in more than usual. The kitchen amenities are a bit light if you really like to cook. We did fine and made it work. One of the bathrooms needed a plumber so we were without for one/day and night. A bit faster service would have been nice. Overall, a great stay and we would stay at the condo again.

Great location

The location is wonderful. I enjoyed being right on the beach. I was able to swim with the dolphins in the ocean right in front of the beach. The view was amazing. Check in was simple. A few things that could have made my experience better are to have a can opener. There were dirty dishes located hidden in drawers and cabinets. It made me wonder how clean the place actually was. Extra linens and possibly having a throw blanket or comforter would have been nice. One of the boogie boards provided were broken already. Overall, this was a nice place with a few minor tweaks.

Stunning view, great location, rapid response

Our stay was fantastic. The house is in a great location with many hot spots in walking distance. The arrangement of living room and kitchen made for easy conversation between the two rooms. Plenty of seating at the bar, coffee table and couch. Back door opens up onto the board walk. We had some problems with the shared bbq grill on the patio. The grill didn’t cook our large tri tip all the way through so we had to finish it in the oven (it could have been the wind factor) Other meats like sausage and burgers cooked fine. Thank you to Gina! She was amazing!

Great location but in need of upgrades / honesty

You cannot beat the location of this property and the views of sunset are to die for!! But the rooms were not the cleanest. For example I don’t think the toaster had been used or cleaned in years. The heat in the back bedroom did not work and everything including the coach was in very poor shape. Many things listed as being in the unit were not like beach chairs and a blow dryer. I think we could have done better for the price.
