We truly enjoyed our home away from home

We would definitely stay at this location again. The location is perfect. The condo was very nice and very clean.. enjoy being on the beach and not having a far walk. Walking distance to restaurants and some shopping.

Overall good. Some dishes were dirty and had to be cleaned before use. Insufficient supplies (trash bags, paper towels, dish and laundry soap) provided for a four day stay so we bought our own and left hopefully for the next person. Condo was comfortable and clean but not very modernized compared to others where we’ve stayed in San Carlos before.

Great getaway

The place was clean, A/C worked great, good hot water, great location, great workout center, and elevators were quick. The chair rental was a plus as was the ice machine on the condo premises. Was a great girls getaway!

Issues

No body soap in the shower and shampoo bottle so small it didn’t last the trip. Toilet clogged and when Vacassa was notified, they never sent anyone to fix it. We asked at the front desk and they said they can’t do anything for the Vacassa units. So after a day waiting for Vacassa to send someone, we just went to the store and got a plunger ourselves. Definitely not top of the line service or worth the high dollar we paid.

Nice condo

Nice condo, great location. Just bring your own hand towels, washcloths and blankets, if you expect chilly nights and want to hear the waves. Other than that it was great even had an ice maker so we didn’t have to buy bags of ice.
