It was a Great StayCation and we had an easy check in, parking and communication. Views were unbeatable along with comfort. Highly recommend
10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2023
The stay was amazing! The view from the balcony was stunning! Could see Dolphins on more than one occasion in the morning. The location was great! It was above our expectations.
On another note, there should be notices about the beach area at this location, it is umbrellas only. We booked this location for the ease of beach entrance. No tents or easy ups! There is no warning or signs. We brought a tent and were told to take it down or get a fine. It would have been nice to have a notice before we arrived. We did find some great beach areas to enjoy.
8 / 10Excellent·Apr 2023
We enjoyed our stay. The room was nicely decorated. Had everything we needed.
The pools were a great asset to the trip as well as the jaccuzzi.
8 / 10Excellent·May 2022
The condo itself was nice. The maids could be a bit more thorough but overall it was comfortable and clean. The beds were also comfortable. Our only complaint would be waiting on the elevators. Overall a fun time.
