This condo looks just like its pictures - beautifully decorated and with a lanai that opens on to a gorgeous lawn. The position of the condo is such that you avoid direct afternoon sun. It has a great floor plan with a second bathroom. Parking is right outside the unit so you don't have to climb stairs.
Landscaping is lush - I felt so spoiled.
Robin left beach supplies - folding chairs, towels, etc. There is also a washer and dryer. Robin responded instantly to my questions, and check-in at the gate was a breeze.
This complex is right next to the Marriott. Other hotels with fine restaurants are accessible on foot along a public path that runs for about a mile.
We walked down to the beach first thing every morning (7:30 am). The beach is technically public (and there is a public park and public access), but very uncrowded.
We love this location because it has a serenity not possible on the beaches in front of the big hotels (we did, however, enjoy the little snack shack at the Marriott). My husband rented snorkeling equipment by the day.
The location of this condo within the complex may be a consideration for someone who enjoys the beach but has trouble walking. The condo is at the top of a hill. We enjoyed the journey down and back (under bougainvillea-covered walkways), but if someone has trouble walking, it is possible to drive down and park by the pool and the beach.
There was a bit of a heatwave during our stay, but we didn't need the AC very much. We opened the louvered shutters every morning and late afternoon to catch the ocean breezes.
It was a beautiful week for us.
