The host is very quick when responding and providing information needed before/during/checking out. The downside is was the pigeons were messing the balcony but after contacting the host he sent someone to clean up the mess in a timely manner. The condo itself had the basic essential needed, up to date except the sofa/sofa bed could be upgraded which was not a make or break. I highly recommend this condo and appreciate the host for going above and beyond

Property was nice…..but reviews were a bit overrated

Pros: Condo was clean, though a bit outdated. Bed was comfortable and kitchen had most of what anyone would need. Location was great and convenient to beach. Cons: Musty smell (but that’s very difficult to control being so close to beach)Toiletries were VERY cheap and limitedCheck out time is ridiculous (10 a.m.)Owner/Property owner is over-the-top with communications (which are really reiterations of their rules)Overall, just okay…..not the worst VRBO we’ve stayed at, but far from the best.

Great stay!

We thoroughly enjoyed renting this property. Tufan communicated several times and checked in on our arrival. The only thing we were missing was a box of tissues and I had requested a dish cloth. There was a sponge available, but Tufan said that I could purchase a dish cloth and he would reimburse me that was kind. The bedroom was comfortable, but the pillows were somewhat flat, although there were several to choose from. The kitchen had everything that we needed. We really appreciated being able to use the beach, chairs and umbrella and it was easy to set them up. The deck on the condo was shaded and provided an excellent view of the beach in the water We ate at the café the first morning, and there were several items to choose from which were all good. The air conditioning was very good, and we finally figured out how to permanently, set it a little warmer. you could choose a temporary holder a permanent hold. And if we were coming without family, we would definitely stay here again. Basically. We had an excellent day! Thank you so much for offering this property! Just a note for those who are catching late flights like we did…(9:02 pm) check out is at 10 AM so we had time to kill and the facility property does not have a secure place to keep your bags. They did offer to keep them within site just across from the desk, check-in area, which we did. And that seem to work well.

Kitchen is properly equipped to cook a full meal, bunk bed space is nice feature. King size mattress could be more comfy. It’s nice they provide chairs in the room with you to bring to beach and very easy access to elevators which is really important. Great location as well. Also the perfect straight forward view of beach from balcony.

Excellent place to stay

It is really a nice property. We spent 5 days there with my family (wife, kids -ages 5 and 7) and we had a blast. The private beach area is pretty big, reasonable prices, drinks served, food is great, pool was clean… We were there in the peak spring break season and their hot tub is small. For 22 floor, 18 units per floor, it was not designed properly.

Great for our short getaway

Simple check in/out process. The host send several emails so you know exactly what to do before, during and after your stay. Condo is nice. AMAZING VIEW! We ate out, so didn’t really need the kitchen. I decided to take our own towels because they stressed not staining their towels (which I thought was weird- have never heard of this before and didn’t want to take a chance of impacting the hold required for incidentals). The condo was extremely dusty everywhere- surfaces in the bedroom, bathrooms, kitchen and living room areas, so the surfaces were not cleaned per their Covid procedures as advised. I’m guessing no one has rented it in a while. It could use a thorough cleaning. To the host’s defense, we did not contact them as the sheets in the bedroom seemed fresh, we booked last minute and were only there for a short stay. Overall we were pleased and would book again, just in enough time for them to properly prepare for our arrival.

Very Enjoyable Stay

This property was exactly as expected. The view is absolutely amazing and the condo was clean and homey. The only downside to our stay was the inability to have guests on the property. We did not intend for them to have access to amenities, but wanted to watch a football game and eat dinner together. Tufan responded to questions quickly regarding this, but confirmed we could have no guests. Other than having to leave the property to spend time with friends, it was an amazing trip. We would reserve this property again to take advantage of the spectacular views!

Great Beach Getaway

The beach is second to none. The location and condo was great. The only real issue I had was getting a one day extension offered to me that was supposed to be a 25 % discounted rate when in all actuality I paid more by quite a bit for that night than any other. The email was misleading in what you would actually pay for that extra day and did not tell what the actual cost was. I didn’t dispute it since I gave the go ahead without asking what the actual cost was. Use my bad as your learning and don’t fall into it like I did. Other than that this place and experience was excellent.
