An excellent location, quiet, away from a busy road and within walking distance to almost everything. They also provided a folder filled with recommendations and contact info that was helpful. The unit itself however needs updating especially in the bathroom. Also the sliding patio door and the bedroom window did not lock. The management company was responsive and repaired the patio door but could not repair the bedroom window. I would recommend they also add an additional club chair in the living area.

The place was cold from the A/C when you walked in and it felt great! It was clean and the patio setup was nice. I love that the owner had a green binder that was organized about the area, beaches, eat and etc. Access to the pool and jacuzzi was easy. I would book again to relax and recharge.

Great little condo, well placed for restaurants and Longs drug store right next door. Management very communicative, easy self check in, clean and well equipped. New sofa bed. Window AC in the bedroom and lounge. Hubby used it as a base for the Queen Lily canoe race and found it convenient.

the condo was comfortable and had all the amenities to make our stay pleasant. it was late when we arrived and whilst the instructions to the apartment were clear, inadequate lighting made it difficult to locate the place. Other than that, it’s a lovely place that’s in the heart of town yet quiet and peaceful

This condo is functional. That is it is a place to sleep. Nothing special, but then not bad either. While the portable AC in living room is a bit trashy, it works to cool quickly. Kitchen was well stocked except for a tea kettle, but pans are really old and need to be replaced. No spices. Pool/beach towels, beach chairs and even cheap snorkel equipment were available. Location was great, easy walk to shops and restaurants to avoid $15/hour parking. If you don't mind an 80s era condo which has not never been updated, then this is the place for you.
