Traveling with 6 people, 3 adults 3 kids 3, 6 and 8 in January 2023.
I have lots to say, but limited space.
1. When people talk about location, this is it. If I could transport this condo with me everywhere we go, I would. The fact you walk out onto the patio, and then a few stairs lead you to the beach...is fantastic. The water is very blue, and limited sargassum.
2. The manager Miriam....is gold. Pure Gold. Wish I could take her too!
3. The condo feels like home. fully stocked, very very family friendly. I really mean fully, towels, soap (body and dish), paper towels, water and ice, both from bottled water, and some sand/water toys for the kids etc. They even have a fresh water shower outside with an additional hose which is invaluable for kids who are sandy.
4. The bus stops right outside of the condo, it’s cheap, easy and runs extremely frequent.
5. AC's are great and the condo is very tech friendly with internet and internet TV. And the laundry room is perfect when you have kids.
From the moment we booked, Miriam and Lynette (owner) were very communicative, and answering all of our questions promptly. We were also connected with a driver who charged a very fair rate for airport transport for all 6 of us with bags. They were there and waiting both times to pick us up. When we arrived at the condo building, Miriam had someone meet us and help us with bags to the unit, then she arrived to give a tour and instructions personally just a few minutes later. Check in was a breeze.
The rest of the stay was and wasn’t perfect. Second day, the unit above us had a plumbing leak, causing water to flood down into the master sink area. This could have made the trip horrible, but Miriam was on it! Workers in immediately, fixed and cleaned heavily. The communication was exceptional and the personal items that were destroyed by the water were paid for. Miriam also bought and delivered a birthday cake for my 3 year olds birthday, a very nice gesture.
When something like a plumbing issue happens, it can become a nightmare. In this case it wasn’t more than an inconvenience. It wasn’t a result of this particular unit doing anything wrong, there was nothing they could have done to try to prevent it, and they made every single correct response to fix it. You really can’t do better than that. So my 5 star review isn’t because we had a “perfect” stay, it’s because it was the best it could have been under the circumstances. I would absolutely stay here again.
