Our experience was fantastic! You have the most INCREDIBLE, unobstructed views of the ocean/beach from both the master bedroom/balcony and the second floor balcony, which is right off the open family room-kitchen area. We have the best memories on the patio enjoying breakfast/lunch watching the waves/surfers and then later, the stunning sunsets. The blinds conveniently have remote controls for nighttime if you choose. The building itself does have other condo units with shared stairs, but we rarely saw anyone and all entries have locked gates with code. Great location...could walk right out onto walkway and beach. The rental was clean (toilets even had paper seal), wonderful furniture and bedding (even the full beds were comfortable), and all 3 bathrooms had new, upgraded plumbing feel. Would rent again in a heartbeat!
