Just returned from a week at this condo and it was great! First you can’t beat the convenience of the first floor. No wait for elevators, you just walk right in making loading and unloading a breeze. Don’t think you’re missing out on the view being on the first floor, you still can see sand and waves. And no worries about people walking close to the patio, the walkway is well away from you. Condo is well stocked. Beds are very comfortable! And being able to bring our pets was the icing on the cake. Mine are both getting old and it’s hard to leave them for a week. Would recommend to anyone!
