Location was as stated - directly on the beach. Large balcony with fantastic view of beach and Gulf. Extremely clean, soft sand beaches. They use a machine every morning to clean the beach. Mostly quiet and peaceful. Walking distance to fun and friendly restaurants. The Pier area and popular retail shops were walkable. Palm Pavilion, Rockaway Grill great for eats and drinks. Live music at both. Breakfast and dinner were great at Clear Sky Cafe. Just around the corner was a cute and tasty Alba Pizza Cafe. Great drinks, and surprisingly great food, at Reefers. All are walkable. Did I mention the beach. Plenty of space to lay around, or walk up and down the coast.
Interior was spacious and updated. Only negatives were the building itself, which is extremely old looking and in need of renovation. Slider doors were heavy and difficult to open, and they leaked water into the living room when it rained. There are many odor masking air fresheners, which tried to mask an ever present odor. We've stayed in many of these up and down the coast, and positives certainly outweighed negatives here.
