The condo was beautiful and clean. Plenty of storage space in the kitchen which was a plus for us to be able to have a pantry to put our food. The view was gorgeous. Location was convenient to most everything. Only down fall was the elevator situation. So many elevators to get to different area. Once we learned the elevators it was all ok.

We loved our stay, the Condo was neat and had everything we needed to enjoy the stay in beautiful weather. Our kids loved the Condo and the easy access to the beach and pools. Christine was responsive and provided us all the information needed. There are plenty of beach toys which saved us the hassle of bringing our own. Getting to the condo from the parkinglot can be a bit confusing on the first day but doing it once or twice makes it very easy. There is one pool and hot tub right next to the beach while other pool, bath tub and arcade are located on the parking garage side. The condo is walking distance to Alvin island and good resturants. Please do bring your own coffee and condiments if staying for longer. I would suggest to add few board games to the Condo as well.
