Amazing views

Amazing views and great balcony. Complex pools were great. It’s nice that the complex is further down Seawall Drive away from the major traffic that is closer to the pier. Complex is under construction, not disclosed in listing. If you are coming from out of town, you will need beach towels. We needed to purchase additional paper towels and toilet paper to accommodate our party of 5. There were 6 bath towels provided for Friday check in - Monday check out, so we washed them everyday to have fresh dry towels.

Smell and floors and bed

The smell was terrible and the floors still had dog hair on them like they were never cleaned and the king size bed sheets looked like they were slept in. The people above us was running around all through the night and loud music and the smell of pot in the parking lot. No Security on duty. Felt very uncomfortable

Beach time

Had a great time and relaxation. Place was under construction but nothing annoying. Rooms were updated and fantastic with everything we needed. Bed was so comfy as well and great view of beach from our balcony to enjoy a cup of coffee in am or anytime. Nice walk to places as well If you don’t want to drive

The trip was very enjoyable and if I had time I would plan several times every year at this location. Friendly management onsite an easy parking and access to condo was outstanding. Only upgrade would be a butler to move in and out - carts were available to manage the absence. Beach across the highway - great. If they would put in a ramp on the seawall - I'd say outstanding. Thank you, Daniel and Marlene W.

Beach View Condo

Overall I wouldn’t advise against staying here I am just being honest about my experience. When we arrived there was no toilet paper in the condo. I did choose to just buy some myself instead of contacting management, seemed easier and quicker. There is no closet space in this condo. There is one small closet in the bedroom but it is filled with random items. One of those items was a dog bed and it made the whole closet smell of urine. Thankfully when the door was closed the smell did not linger outside of the closet. The building management is nice, you check in with them and pay $10 a day to park. The view was lovely! It worked out okay for my husband and I but I cannot imagine sleeping more than two people in that space, it would be tight. I wanted to mention I contacted the rental company prior to checkin and they were very kind and responsive. Overall I would consider price and other properties but if there was nothing else would stay here again, just pack my own toilet paper.

Wonderful Visit!

Had a wonderful trip, everything was as expected. There was construction, but it didn’t bother us. Nice to wake up and enjoy your coffee gazing at the ocean. We stayed with our two teenaged and two dogs and had a great time. Thank you!

Close to Ocean!

We enjoyed our stay! Balcony looked over the ocean ( had 4 chairs). Condo was clean and had dishes to do some eating in. It looked like the pictures. Across the street (can be busy), is the ocean. There are rocks there but a short distance to left is sand. The non heated pool was amazing but cold for March. My kids did brave it and had a great time after they did. There is also a hot tub by this pool. The heated pool was on opposite side- had some ants. Take extra toilet paper. The outside is outdated and parking seems scary at night but we had no issues there. We would stay again!! Parking is $10 a night. You have to drive to get to restaurants.
