We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Gary's condo. Everything was as described in the listing. When we arrived the unit was clean and had plenty of sheets, pillows, blankets, toilet paper, paper towels, hand soap and cleaning supplies of we needed extras. The cabinets were also stocked with essentials like salt/pepper, oil, etc. The living room furniture was clean and very comfortable for movie nights. The king bed in the master suite was very comfortable (I didn't sleep on the others) and the view looking out over the ocean from the master was incredible. Having access from the master to the balcony was a plus. There were five adults and two children in our party and we all felt like we had plenty of privacy as each room has it's own full bathroom. We did cook several meals and found the kitchen nicely stocked with everything needed to cook a family sized meal.
The front bedroom was a little warm as noted in a few other reviews, however, as soon we got to the condo we set up the fans that are in the closets, one in the bedroom and one in the hallway, and that helped pull the cool air towards the room. The air conditioning works well so with the fans and the ceiling fan the front bedroom was comfortable.
I was concerned that with the close proximity of the unit to the pool and the beach access we may hear a lot of noise, but we never did. Actually, the location was perfect as it wasn't far to walk to be at the pool or the beach. You really are steps away from both! Being able to look out over the ocean from the living area and the beach/pool from the balcony was great. Even on the one day it rained we had a lovely view.
Gary is a very responsive host and reached out on multiple occasions before and during our trip to ensure we had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. We didn't have any issues but I feel confident he would have been on top of it if needed.
We all agreed that this was one of the best beach vacations we have had and will definitely book this unit again in the future. Many thanks to Gary for sharing his happy place with us!
