Beautiful finishes and stunning view
The condo was exceptionally clean and newly renovated. The interior design choices were gorgeous. The view from the deck/porch was stunning; Full ocean view. The property landscaping and pool were still being completed but that was no issue for us. The property management was very communicative and helpful.
