This place was even more beautiful in person than in the pictures. Stunning views and easy access to everything. The decor was adorable and our hostess Alana was very sweet and responsive. I was fortunate to experience 74 degrees and sunshine in early January to celebrate my 60th birthday here. I definitely can’t wait to come back.

View and location are absolutely spectacular. We went in the off season when there was little to no foot traffic which made it all the more better. I shaved a star off as I feel there could be improvements. Kitchen sponges were questionably old, the kitchen broom and dust collector had a layer of grease on it. Door hinges in the condo, especially the bathroom doors, were heavily coated in rust. Master bath hand soap looked like it was easily over a year old and constantly filled with water.The actual condo is beautiful, but I believe if it had a true deep clean it would be phenomenal. Alana is a great host.
