Access to beach was excellent, view was fantastic from our 1 bedroom. Minor issues with the condo, living room furniture was not the most comfortable. The condo overall was nice and clean but could use some general updates. The resort was nice as to access to the pool, hot tub and everything as to amenities.

Pictures don't tell all...
Overall our trip was good. But the room we were given you could tell was not taken care of. The walls and the ceiling were patched together with different colors. The showers didn't really work as they should but we were able to get by. I viewed a friends room three doors away from ours which they booked with a different company and theirs was so much nicer. When we decided to go to the beach we had purchased a tent to keep our 19 month old in during naps and so he wouldn't get burnt only to get there and them tell us we couldn't use it and we couldn't set up lower than the chairs that had been purchased. But the places on both sides of us didn't have these rules. So because we couldn't afford to rent one of their chairs we couldn't enjoy being right by the water or our nice new beach tent.

The property was very run down, chips on walls in the room, the elevators had a bad musty/moldy smell, the shower curtain liner was old and needed changing in the master. Front desk staff was not friendly or helpful. The pool was small so it was often overcrowded. They put out so many chairs and umbrellas that you couldn’t even see the ocean without leaving.
