Great experience and very helpful staff. Perfect location.

The place was neat and clean. It's small yet efficient. We had a family of 4 and a baby and had no issues. When we had a slight issue arise, the staff was on top of it and handled it extremely well. Location right on the beach and walking distance to some places like the Hangout made it a perfect location. Would definitely recommend!

We had a great stay in 804! Would definitely recommend this condo! The room was very clean and the staff took great care of the building. The only negative thing i have to say is one elevator was down, leaving only 1 elevator for the whole building.

The property was clean and nice. The only thing that upset us was that we wasnt notified that maintenance was trying to get acess to our unit. We happened to come up from the beach to two men standing at our door. They said that they were trying to gain access because the unit below had water and thought it was coming from our bath tub. We let them in and checked that our tub was leaking. While we are waiting for them to come back to fix it, a housekeeper used a code and tried to open our door without knocking. Luckly we had the chain on, which stopped her from coming all the way in. She said that she had the wrong room.?!?!?? But used a code to get in?!? After all this, we didnt feel like our belongings were safe nor our privacy. It was all unprofessional nor has the property apologized or acknowledged that this happened.

Furniture needs updating

Location was perfect!!! Close to everything. The furniture in the unit was horrible and not comfortable. The mattress was like sleeping on a rock. The couch was hard as well. You do have to pay for parking which was something I was not aware of. It is $50 a vehicle. Which is something that should be included in my opinion, but it is what it is. View was spectacular from the 8th floor. Also the balconies are not private. Our neighbors could see right over to ours just by standing up.

Best part was location

Location was great, just a short walk to the beach. Whem we first arrived, there was an odd smell. On our 3rd day there, the washer stopped working properly. We contacted the front desk but it never got fixed.

Not happy

Nice location and easy access to the beach. After spending a full day on the beach we were scared and shocked when we returned to our room and the door was wide open. There was a maintenance man inside replacing the washer and dryer. No body contacted us to let us know this was going to happen. After talking with the maintenance man he said the washer was broken and the previous guest had rust stains on all their clothes after washing them and again no body bothered to let us know of the issue even though they knew it was broken. I would not recommend to stay here because of the lack of communication. The owner said we would be contacted by the property manager but never heard from them. Once they had our money they could care less how we were treated.

Overall the property and condo were great. On site staff friendly and available and the property was clean. It is an older property so could use some exterior upgrades and minor interior, but the condo has had a facelift and well suited our needs.
