    Awesome for family vacation

    We stayed a week and were very happy with the accommodations. The condo is roomy and had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. I especially enjoyed the fact beach chairs and umbrella were provided, making it much easier with a 5 yr old. My only real complaint is the bathtubs could use some updating.. tubs a bit stained/dingy.. otherwise everything was perfect!

    The size was great, the furnishings were nice. The kitchen could use some updating. The balcony was big. End unit was close to elevators and had extra windows. Bring a heating blanket if you come in the winter, the heater needs attention. It’s definitely great for a large group.
