Pros: The view and location is what sells this place. The outdoor patio is awesome and we spent a lot of time out there, plenty of room for all eight of us. We had plenty of space for eight of us in the condo as well. There are good eating places to the west, check out the Upper Deck for great seafood and Flannigan's for great food and selection. The horse track, casino and shops are right by the Upper Deck. We ended up walking there and it was not bad about 1 mile to 1 1/2 miles. The pool is very nice and warm. You need to get up early to get a chair by the pool. The beach is only about 2 blocks, very easy walk, there is a shuttle there goes every 20 minutes free of charge, which is awesome. The owner was fairly quick to respond to emails.
Cons: Check in is at 4 pm and be prepared to wait. We ended up waiting and hour before we were able to get into the condo. I had read the reviews dating back over 6 months and there were issues with the refrigerator, tv and outlets. I was hoping these would have been fixed, however, I was wrong. The frig only cooled to 64 degrees, sadly we discovered this after all of our food was warm and had to be thrown away. We ended up having to get bags of ice to place in the refrigerator to keep our food cool, which was extremely inconvenient, but necessary! There is only one outlet that works in the kitchen and that is to the left of the stove. The tv in the back bedroom and master did not work. We did contact the owner who sent up the repair man, however, he could not get it fixed. I do not know what he was checking entirely because part of the issue was there were no batteries in the remote and there still was not after he checked it. We had very limited supplies for eight people. There are three bathrooms, which is wonderful, but only one roll of toilet paper and 3 bath towels per bathroom, not a lot when there are eight people showering. I did contact the owner and he did send someone to bring us more towels and washcloths which we had none. We were left 4 washcloths and 3 additional towels. The owner is fairly quick to respond, however, it does take awhile to get the supplies delivered from housekeeping. There is a Walmart across the street, which is convenient. We ended up having to buy our own toilet paper, paper towels and washcloths.
Suggestions: The view and location are worth it. Make sure to check to see if the refrigerator has been fixed. Upon arrival check to make sure everything works as it should and that you have all the supplies you need like enough towels, washcloths, toilet paper, etc., then contact the owner to have the supplies sent up or repaired. I wish we would have done this right away instead of having to contact him almost everyday.
