I had a decent stay at the condo, but there were several drawbacks that affected my experience. The views were absolutely stunning, and I appreciated the proximity to the beach. However, cleanliness was a significant issue, and the parking situation was stressful. Overall, it’s a mixed bag with some great aspects but substantial room for improvement.

I recently stayed at this condo and, while I was hoping for a more upscale experience, there were several issues that made my stay less enjoyable. The unit was in need of a serious deep clean, and the overall condition was far from what I anticipated. The location was decent, offering easy beach access, but it was marred by long waits for the elevators and some serious cleanliness problems in the common areas.

The unit was filthy and poorly maintained, with issues like loose bedding that didn’t fit the beds and sand left in the sheets. It was disappointing given the price we paid.

While the resort is situated in a desirable beachfront location, my stay was marred by cleanliness issues and frustrating elevator situations. The condo itself had potential, but both the amenities and services fell short of what I hoped for, making it difficult for me to give a positive recommendation. The views were stunning, yet the overall experience did not match the expectations set by the online listings.

The condo was smaller than expected and the cleanliness was quite lacking; we even found sand in the beds upon arrival. The toilet seat was disconnected when we got there, which was an inconvenience. However, the unit had a decent layout with good kitchen facilities.

Service at the property had its ups and downs. Maintenance took a while to address the toilet issue, and there were also problems with the elevators, which often left us waiting far too long. Overall, it left a lot to be desired.
Location

The resort's location is near the beach, making it convenient for beachgoers, but the access to the beach itself could be improved since there were stairs involved even after using the elevator. Nevertheless, it is close to several attractions, which is a positive.

The indoor and outdoor pools were nice features, but other facility aspects, like parking situations and elevator issues, dampened the experience. The pool area could have been more well-maintained.

I had a so-so experience during my stay at the condo, where the cleanliness and maintenance of the unit left much to be desired. The location was convenient, being very close to the beach, but there were significant issues with the elevators and parking that really put a damper on the overall enjoyment. While the view was lovely, the overcrowded beach and inadequate facilities made it hard to fully relax.

The elevator situation was a nightmare, with one of three often out of service and the parking garage too tight and full, which made it hard to navigate.

My stay at this condo had its ups and downs. While the location near the beach made it easy to enjoy seaside activities, the overall cleanliness was concerning. The unit was cramped with too much oversized furniture, and the parking situation was a real headache. I can't overlook the maintenance issues like the faulty toilet seat and the elevators that often left us waiting far too long.
