The room is lovely, the layout is roomier than other rooms we have rented there, and the kitchen was well stocked with nice cookware. One of the prettiest units we have stayed in over the years at The Summit. Only issues all week were related to elevators. One or two were down at a time. The Summit did get them working but it happened several days of our stay. It was frustrating, but we still had a wonderful stay overall.
The condo was very clean. The description given of the property was very accurate. Great view of the beach from the balcony. Will definitely rebook again.
