Overall: amazing, clean remodel in a fabulous location. If you like more detail like I do, here’s more thoughts on our stay.
Location, location, location!!!! Walking distance to sandy, large beach (and that is with small kids!) Plenty of great food within walking distance. We didn’t even get to try all the food we wanted to. Sea World is a quick 10 minute drive. Parking was seamless. Guaranteed spot every time. Nice to never worry about street parking.
Beds were super comfy and they even had a rolling crib. Plenty of towels, including beach towels! Always had hot water. Kitchen had all new appliances.
Stephanie was absolutely amazing to work with. She reached out first upon check in to ask if everything was as expected before you would even have the chance to get ahold of her first. Super easy going and accommodating. We noticed that the floors weren’t mopped and she had it taken care of immediately, along with a gift card. It seems they were planning to mop and ran out of swiffer cloths, because everything else was spotless and we observed them cleaning other units throughout our stay.
While the cleaning crew was there a few times cleaning the other units I noticed they were always wearing masks and took the time to disinfect strollers, beach chairs, etc. (also a huge plus to not have to pack any gear, high chair, pack n play, etc!) I am high risk and don’t leave my house. I felt comfortable staying here. It was so nice to get away from home and distance on the beach!
Last bit of advice: If you are a light sleeper, not a morning person, or plan to spend days there while a kid naps, get the upstairs unit. And while you are upstairs, be courteous and walk lightly. We never heard voices, but the running kids and walking adults were very apparent. Especially at 6 am. (Who is waking up that early on vacation anyway???)
