Communication with owner: Helen was great with communication. Somehow her emails went to spam, but she was quick to respond through VRBO and let me know that might be the case.
Check-in: Very easy process with no issues.
Parking: Not too many parking spots in the attached garage, but wasn't too much of an issue with the garage across the street. Would be easier if there was a better designated loading/unloading area, but we made it work. If there was one, I never saw it.
Pools: didn't use the pools or hot tub, but would have if they remained open after 10 pm.
Condo: the condo was exactly as described and as in the pictures. Very clean and no musty smell at all like you usually get with oceanfront properties in FL. A/C worked great!!! The view from the balcony was AMAZING and can't beat it! Master bed was very comfy. Heavy draperies kept out the daylight. I really enjoyed the balcony and furniture in the evenings. The kitchen had the things we needed, but didn't really cook meals other than breakfast. The W/D was definitely handy to have in the condo! Had no issues with elevators during our stay, which was great. It was also pretty quiet as well, so it made enjoying the balcony in the evenings that much better. Just the sound of the ocean was all you heard!!! RELAXING!!!
Beach: Unfortunately we were swamped with jellyfish this go around, but thankfully on Friday it cleared up and we could enjoy the ocean more without having to constantly be looking for them. Beach was kept very clean and the chairs/umbrella were great to have with the condo.
Area: I really liked the area. Everything you needed wasn't too far away. Lots of great restaurants and things to do. Such a quick drive to/from the airport as well!
Overall: I would definitely recommend this condo to anyone without hesitation. It is beautiful, comfy, and has everything you need with a great view as a bonus!!!
