SENTIMENTS: A magical place. As many have mentioned, the views are a dream and surpass the listing photos. Also not captured in the listing: open all the windows (yes the large ones cleverly open in a safe way) for invigorating smells of salt sea air, and awaken to quiet cries of gulls in the morning. Yes, there are also lots of city sounds — you ARE staying in the heart of a city, and all that comes with it — but to us this intermingling added to the experience. Also we thought the balcony might be too windy but it wasn't at all, and we spent a good deal of time out there. The rooms are spacious and the decor is indeed serene.
PRACTICALS: Great communication from hosts. Check-in was a breeze, as just grabbed keys from the concierge. Condo parking access felt slightly complicated at first but quickly became second nature (the concierges were very friendly and responsive and helped us out when needed). Elevators are FAST and it's easy to come and go despite the high floor number. Everything is close and walkable, and if wanting to venture slightly further, highly recommend grabbing one of the many e-scooters lying around — most fun way I've found to explore a city.
