The condo looks exactly like the pictures in the listing. Well decorated, spacious, and mostly clean. Dan, the property host, is extremely professional, helpful, and a pleasure to deal with. As an example, the listing said that the condo had beach chairs and an umbrella but upon our arrival we couldn’t find them in the unit so he dropped off beach chairs. That was a wow. The condo is close to a beach (within walking distance) and the ocean views from the balcony were an added perk.
A few things to note:
- The condo is in a convenient location but on a very noisy street and since there is no A/C in the unit we left the windows open at night but were woken up by garbage trucks, cars, and etc. starting at 6AM daily. I have never woken up so early on vacation before. Also, the condo was too hot for us with no A/C during the day. The 3 fans helped a lot though.
-The floor was very dirty. From the day we got there our feet were black from walking barefoot in the unit and after paying $350 for a cleaning fee, that was a bit disappointing. We also found it a bit odd that we had to take all the garbage out and strip the beds, do the dishes, and etc. when we paid $350 for a cleaning fee.
-Another issue was the noise from the construction. 4 out of our 7 days were filled with loud drilling and other noises from the construction going on. Dan gave us a little discount for the trouble which was very appreciated.
All in all, the condo is decorated nicely and it’s safe and convenient and I would definitely recommend working with Dan to anyone! The sushi place on the ground level was awesome.
