Overall great stay!
The condo was super clean and the rooms are big, breezy and open as described and pictured :)
the outdoor lounge area is nice, everything was clean and new (Nov16)
Getting in was easy, no desk check in or anything like that which was nice. The lockbox was present upon arrival and we had the code before arrival.
Friendly neighbors, lots of airbnbs and vrbos types from what I gathered.
Master Bed and bath was nice, there's an extra walk in closet to put things out of the way as well.
Plenty of parking every day and night.
The kitchen is nice, and fully stocked if you plan to cook.
Coffee maker works well and the dining area is nice.
Big couch plenty of space
There is no ocean view from the condo itself "ocean front, marine life view" was slightly misleading, this does not mean you can see the ocean from your apartment, just from somewhere within the apartment complex..
I shouldn't have to read all the reviews to find that information so that was a bummer.
The garden out the back door is nice, it is walking accessible from all the other ground units, so it is semi-private, not private.
^If you have any lights on in the house at night (including master bedroom) the blinds are partially see-through from outside, so be mindful of that with the accessible back yard
^^I walked out to a neighbor on our porch one morning with his husky trying to get it to potty, while taking photos of our supposedly private rock garden which was really odd and a surprise - we slept with the screens closed but doors open so that was a wake-up to the level of privacy!
There is some construction going on right next door - Nov 2016. It was quiet every night, and we were never were there during the daytime so it wasn't much of a disturbance for us besides the morning.
For what the apartment actually is, it is great and I would stay here again now knowing what to expect! The description is just a tad bit off in regards to the ocean view and private garden.
