Great Location

The location and ocean view was perfect. Furniture could use upgrading, but we spent most of our time on the beach or checking out the local area which was the perfect laid back kind of beach town we love.

Comfy stay!

Loved the proximity to the beach; kitchen was fairly well-equipped. There was an InstaPot and a Keurig coffee maker. Pretty tight parking area, though. Comfortable beds, good water pressure in the showers.

Great Place for the Holidays

This is a wonderful place - the views are spectacular. The only negative were our neighbors above us were very loud (heavy footsteps, kids running, jumping - sounded like they were going to come through the ceiling) but they were only there for a few days during our 2 weeks at Reef Therapy. Would recommend if you don't mind hearing neighbors above and dogs barking constantly (which we love dogs but some people wouldn't bring their dogs inside - left them out on the porch to bark constantly). So many positives - the master bed sleeps like a dream, the view from the Living Room, kitchen, dining area was of the ocean which was why we came, the kitchen had everything we needed, the place was clean, the w/dryer were super nice to use. This is a wonderful vacation spot.

Almost perfect

The view and beach access were excellent, which was most important!! The washer quit partway through the visit and was not repaired. To the dismay of my condo mate, there were no instructions for operating the TV in the living area.

Great location for beach access

The condo was fine, no frills, kitchen was equipped ok. The washing machine was broken, so we didn’t have access to that. The main frustration was the tv. There were zero instructions, and I’m pretty savvy, but it took me close to an hour each time to find the tv shows we were looking for, and that was on CBS. I couldn’t find any basic channels, and had to download different apps, etc. My elderly mother, who was with us, would have never figured it out. The unit was neat and tidy. Could have used a few more kitchen towels. Location was great! Porch was great!
