Overall ok stay. Thought our condo was ocean facing and is not. It’s bird sanctuary facing which we knew was next door but not our view. Patio chair was broken and the rest of them very uncomfortable and worn.

From the owner:
"Hi J L., we’re glad you had an overall okay stay and enjoyed the beach. Our listing clearly states that the condo is next to the bird sanctuary, and our photos accurately depict the views. Many guests appreciate this unique location. That said, we’re sorry if there was any misunderstanding regarding the view. Thank you for reviewing your stay."
Great location - well stocked rental with plenty of towels, kitchen appliances, etc. Comfortable, plenty of space.

Great location right on the beach! The 1st thing hits you as you walk into the balcony is the bird smell from the next door bird sanctuary but you get used it (or it goes away) quickly. Not having soaps/shampoos in the bathrooms was a new learning experience for me. Overall great experience.

From the owner: "Yes, we don't provide shampoo it's in the listing that sounds like you had a five-star stay minus that!"
Had a great time. Great location. Easy access to beach. Water station to rinse off prior to returning which was great for not getting sandy floors in condo. Property is next to a Bird Sanctuary. Enjoyed seeing the birds. As others have stated, at times there is a smell. Never smelled while inside the condo.

From the owner: "Thank you very much for your kind words and we would love to have you stay again in the very near future!"
I asked several times if the balcony faced the beach and was told yes. The balcony faced the bird sanctuary and it was noisy and smelly. You couls see the beach if you stood at the edge of the balcony and looked over the mangroves. I needed the balcony because my mother is wheelchair bound and we were going to have her visit us each day an look at the beach. She was unable to do this so we d]were unable to host her. We wasted a lot of money. The apartment itself was great. You folks lied though. First and last time I use this company.
