GREAT Room & View, Close to Restaurants, But Loud

This was one of the nicest rooms I have ever stayed in. Very clean and pleasant, everything was just as pictured. The beds were super comfortable. It was great to have a full size refrigerator and the bottled water connection was so convenient - we drank a lot of water our week there! The drawers in the kitchen were a little hard to open and close at times - I think from the humidity. The balcony door was difficult to open because of the air pressure. It was even hard when the bathroom window was open and the from door propped open - I had to use two hands and pull with all my strength. So every time we went in or out, we had to put everything down to open the door. Kind of inconvenient, but it was workable.

The air conditioner leaked the first couple of days. Maintenance came promptly each time, but then it would break again. I spent a lot of time wiping up water and placing bowls under leaks on the balcony and in the room - the water spread from the window all the way to the front door. The third day, it finally did get fixed, but after three days of breaking, I could never quite relax - we continuously kept a bowl and towel under the unit "just in case."

The view from the balcony was the best! And the balcony was in the shade in the afternoon, which was great because we both have very fair skin. We had breakfast on the balcony every morning. And we hung out on the balcony overlooking the ocean most afternoons. The chairs were quite comfortable, and the tables were big enough for plates and drinks.

Our only real complaint was that beginning before noon every day music would begin blasting from a nearby club on the beach, and it would get louder and louder as the day progressed. It was so loud (with a non-stop disco beat) beginning around 2pm we couldn't even play our own music. And in the evening, music from the club on the street would blast all night long - and some days it was still playing when we got up in the morning. We closed the bathroom door and the outer door leading to our room, but that only muffled it. There was no real way to completely drown it out. Had we known about this beforehand, we probably would have booked elsewhere, because we were looking for something peaceful and relaxing, and there was nothing peaceful about it. If you are looking to party all day and night, this is a great location. But if you are looking for a place where you can sit and hear the ocean waves, not so much.

The condo was situated right beside all the nightlife & within walking distance to just about everything. it can be very noisy, but this can be avoided by closing all doors into the condo. we did have some disruptive neighbors, but that was to be expected during spring break. the beach was huge & just steps away. our air conditioner leaked, HEAVILY. we tried making the front desk aware of the situation, but it never got resolved in the 3 nites we were there. other than that, we really had no problems. nice pool, beach & security. overall it was a good stay & i would consider staying here again :)
