While the stunning views from the condo were breathtaking, the accommodations themselves were lacking in maintenance and cleanliness. We encountered several issues during our stay, including a broken toilet and problems with the air conditioning. The location, however, offered proximity to beautiful beaches and local attractions, making it a great spot for exploration. Overall, there's potential with this property, but it urgently needs updates and improvements to meet expectations.

The condo we stayed in had a breathtaking view of the ocean, but unfortunately, the accommodations were in dire need of updating. We faced several issues during our visit, including broken appliances and uncomfortable furniture. While the location was ideal for enjoying the scenery and local attractions, the overall experience was dampened by the condition of the unit.

The condo offers breathtaking ocean views, which were the highlight of our stay. However, we faced numerous maintenance issues that detracted from our experience, including a broken toilet and some outdated furniture. Despite these drawbacks, the overall environment was tranquil, and the staff made efforts to address our concerns. This location has great potential if the accommodations were updated and better maintained.

While the view from our condo was absolutely breathtaking, the overall condition of the unit left much to be desired. We faced several maintenance issues that detracted from our stay, and it was clear that some updates were desperately needed. The staff did their best to assist us, but it was disappointing to have so many problems during our visit. If the condos were updated and taken care of, it could be a wonderful place to stay.
