This is a super sweet condo in an awesome complex. The beach across the street is outstanding - perfect for swimming and snorkeling and also just sitting. It was a huge perk to the place to be able to grab a beach chair (provided!) and take an easy 5 minute walk to get there.
Largely the place is as pictured, as advertised. However! The pictures are shot on a wide lens so it’s smaller a space than we expected. We got used to it and it was fine for three of us, but that was a surprise.
The only true downfall is that there is a local rooster that thinks 3:35am is the time to clock in and start crowing. It was a super drag as it woke up our kid in the loft which meant one of us was up too. If you are just staying in the bedroom it’s ok because the AC fan is quite loud and drowns out the incessant crowing (til 6 am when he knocks off). If you like that white noise it’s awesome, but if not maybe consider another spot. I liked it personally. (the white noise, not the bird!)
I also appreciated a lot of little touches in the condo.. Like, the way there were nice lamps next to the bed controlled by a wall switch. And that someone thoughtfully put an extension cord next to the bed so you can plug in your device. Also there is all the beach stuff in a closet for you to use - it’s really nice -
towels and chair, etc. And the greatest little cooler to carry over there. So helpful! We rented an umbrella and snorkeling gear from Boss Frogs down the street to round out the beach stuff needed.
Also the location is fantastic. Tons of great restaurants and a really great natural food store a few blocks away. It’s a sweet commute down the beach, go left and you’ll find that place among many others. ‘Beach street’ is awesome for coffee, smoothies and light breakfast. Super yummy.
Lastly, when we had random questions or concerns the CB Island people were super responsive and kind.
If they can reassure us that the rooster has moved on -we would definitely stay again!
