It was okay. No screen on the doors which we like because we open the sliding doors at night to listen to the ocean. We cracked one open anyway and had palmetto bugs and flys in the room. Dishwasher was out of order but we received a call advising us and that they would install a new one within a day. I was okay without it since we were only 2 people. Location is great fewer crowds. Outside furniture was dirty and old needs replaced. Inside was okay.

Here’s a ready-to-post review based on what you shared:---The ocean view was beautiful, and the location was convenient with plenty of restaurants close by. While the balcony wasn’t the best spot for suntanning, the outdoor pool made up for it and was enjoyable. Unfortunately, the tub was not very clean, and the upstairs neighbors were quite noisy early in the morning, which affected the overall comfort. Despite those issues, it was still a good stay and we had a positive experience overall.

The ocean view from the balcony was exactly what I was hoping for, and the unit is right on the beach! It was also great to have access to outdoor and indoor pools nearby. I loved the location! The four star was because the shams and the decorative bed quilts smelled dirty. Only the white linen bedsheets and pillow cases were clean. The sofa bed mattress had crumbs on it. So we chose not to use it. The mattresses are very uncomfortable. The check-in requires you to come into the office to pick up paperwork and parking passes. We didn’t expect that. Also, be sure to check your email for a rental agreement and contract. I didn’t know for 2 days that a contract was sent to me, and the office didn’t respond to me in the Vrbo app. I had to ask Vrbo for the owner’s contact number to get access information. Upon contacting them, i found out there was a contract but it has not been sent to me. It would help if they contacted me first via the Vrbo app with instructions to check my personal email for next steps. I didn’t do the 3 stars because the price was fair and the staff at the real estate office were very friendly, understanding and welcoming.

"This condo is so close to the beach. Located at almost the end of the beach where it is more quiet. The condo was supplied with everything we needed. Will definitely book again."
