I chose this property because I needed to have direct, close access to the sea.
This was perfect for my reasons for this trip.
My fused spine needed 12 days of floating and swimming, which greatly strengthened my spinal muscles.
The sea was so clean and the temperature was perfection.
The condo itself was tastefully decorated with pops of turquoise colors and textures on the walls.
She really did an amazing job decorating this condo.
Each room has special features that make this property a "magazine" look for beach design.
Even the bedroom has a unique feature wall, with cool lamps for reading at night.
Who doesn't love a "rain-shower-head"?
I had a little trouble with the stove, but my texts were promptly responded to, so no big deal after all.
Thank you Carol for "unlocking" the far-right part of the stove. It was lovely to meet you~
The patio is perfect for sunning or, when the UV-rays were "extreme," (11) I could pull the lounge chair into the shaded area of the patio. Usually 12-2pm. I brought an SPF jacket that I ended up wearing.
Either way, you don't have to take your eyes off the sea.
The building is very secure and if you don't like to hear music at night, the slider acts as a "sound barrier" to anything going on outside.....I LOVED hearing the music down the beach, and sometimes, right in this complex.
The check in was a bit "muddled", as I had been texting them that my flight was arriving at 1:30PM instead of 1:50PM.
I paid the taxi extra to take me to a grocery store, to kill time and get water, fruits and other items for my 12 days.
I was 55 minutes early to the condo, and was told "check in is at 4PM." They ended up allowing me in at 3:30PM because I had things to go in the frig. They should pro-rate the day, since we pay full price for 8 hours, not 24, which is a full day.
No help carrying up 12 liters of water nor my heaviest suitcase.
I really struggled getting it up the stairs that greet you, that I was not anticipating. (That's why I chose a ground floor condo)
After that, I let it go and just enjoyed my 6-7 hours in that lovely ocean water.
I saw 7 starfish, without snorkel gear on.
I also brought a giant grape float, that I pumped up with a hand held, air pump.
I wanted to leave it behind for the next guest, but was told to give it away....I gave it to people living in the abandoned building next door, as they were super friendly, and I saw their kids swimming on Sundays.
Excellent beach trip for my birthday~
