My family stayed here in July 2020. We enjoyed the condo, for the most part. I thought I’d love being on the top floor and not hear anyone running around in the condo above me, but I quickly realized that it wasn’t as great as I had imagined. With smaller children, it was a little nerve-wracking to be that high up. What made me even more nervous was that the lock to the sliding door (that led to the balcony) was not functional. The worst thing about being on the top floor, however, was the amount of time we had to wait on an elevator. The entire resort (somewhere around 600+ units) had only 6 elevators, and many of them were in and out of service. There were times when we waited 30+ minutes for an elevator. One night, we got tired of waiting and used the stairs (yes! ALL 23 floors!).
The beach was lovely and pools were beautiful (they were a bit crowded for my liking). The rules for the condo state that there is NO saving seats at the pool, but we ended up with no seats because we followed the rules. At 8am, a swarm of people go out with handfuls of towels and claim their spots. They go back up, have breakfast, and show back up a couple hours later. My daughter and I got up early one morning, had breakfast, and were ready to go to the pool at 8:05. We went down to the pool and barely found 1 lounging chair!! I sat in it and my daughter went to play in the pool. We were one of two families that had stayed out there after the mad rush. The rest were just a bunch of lounge chairs saved with towels. Highly frustrating, to say the least. So, follow the rules if you must, just know that nobody else does. And you may not get a spot if you do.
The condo itself was clean, had most of what we needed, and the owner was great! The owner checked in with us to make sure everything was ok and even offered to give us suggestions on places to go eat, should we need it. Very nice! 😊
One suggestion I would make to the owner is to put more seating on the balcony. My family of four couldn’t enjoy being out there all at the same time because of the lack of seating.
