The location of this apartment is key to restaurants, shops, beaches to lay out, beaches to snorkel on, etc. The lanai and ocean waves are incredibly loud (LOVED THIS) we even had to close the bedroom door slightly at night because of how loud and lively the waves were, a good problem to have for us! Due to the condo being part of a complex where many others live and are vacationing, noise can be a factor early in the morning prior to the 9am "quiet time" rule. Overall, can't get much closer to the ocean at this price, it was a great deal.
