10/10. Absolutely Perfect! From start to finish Donna & Jim provided excellent communication throughout our stay!. They were kind enough to let us look at their condo while we were in the building in January 2026 so we could see if it was a good option for us. And as soon as we walked in to their condo we were blown away. The condo was updated and designed perfectly. It included comfortable furniture, an in unit washer and dryer and start up supplies. We really liked the twin bed option in the guest room. And the view from the balcony is spectacular. Thank you Donna & Jim for your generosity hospitality and we look forward to our next stay!

Big pool closes at 7. Dumb. No music or anything at pool. Wristbands are a pain. But rooms clean a decent. cafe was good but closes at 3. Not ocean front but a beach side view. washer a dryer very small.

Thank you for submitting a review. It seems as if you were more disappointed in the property management instead of our condo? Not all pools close at 7pm- only the ocean front one due to turtle migration. In regards to the washer and dryer there are stackable washers and dryer in all two bedrooms units. There is additional paid laundry facility on property with larger washers and dryers if so needed as well.
