"This was the perfect place for our family of 4. The condo was clean, and well appointed with all of the things you could need. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of towels annd extra pillows. Enjoyed having a washer and dryer to clean some of our beach laundry! Location was great! The grounds were beautiful, but sadly, there was a bit of trash around and lots of trash in the lagoon by the pool. Did not seem to be something that was taken care of regularly. The pools were great, and that area was very clean. The beach shuttle was a great amenity."
