Downstairs bathroom did not work entire stay. We specifically rented this because it had 2 bathrooms. They said the water line is crossed with another apartment that is undergoing maintenance. They should have told us this. The deck boards are always terribly loose. The location is across the highway from the beach. Kitchen was nice.

This was a great place to stay. It was a super short walk to the beach. Plenty of space to spread out and feel like we were on top of each other. The place was clean and well taken care of. We were about to walk almost everywhere that we went. The owner did warn us about the downstairs bathroom and that the toilet might not work due to the construction next door but we had no issues. It’s was a very fun and relaxing getaway and we would definitely stay here again.

We have stayed in the Sand Dollar Condos before and really enjoyed ourselves, we have not stayed in this exact property before. We don’t mind the short walk to the beach & lack of beach front view from our room for such a great price. It’s a cozy place that is perfect for a small family or small group of friends wanting to enjoy the beach without breaking the bank. I would not recommend over 5 staying. The only complaint we have over all, was that the pullout couch was not very comfy. But, we made do & know that a pullout couch isn’t going to sleep like a normal bed! Overall would recommend if you’re a easy going group willing to walk a short distance to the beach & don’t mind a few stairs. (The distance to the beach is approx. half a mile. Across 2 parking lots, a short distance on the side walk, and across the street. There is a set of stairs going up to the room and a pretty steep set of stairs in the actual condo.) Chair rentals are very easy if you get up and send one person down early (we sent someone down at 7am) the first morning you are there to put your name down. The chairs are $30 for a set(2 chairs and an umbrella) for a day. They will check on you often and move your umbrella if needed. You can rent for whichever days you want the first morning & pay later (with cash or check) when your group goes down to the beach. You can take your own chairs down & sit up closer to the water than the chair rentals or you can take a tent & set up behind the back row of chair rentals. There’s a place on the beach very close to do banana boat rides, parasailing, etc. Overall the beach spot is convenient and easy to enjoy!!

We stayed at this same property last year. I was happy to see the downstairs, both the kitchen and den updated. We were happy with the property. I would recommend a new ceiling fan in the master bedroom as well as a new mattress. The current fan is very wobbly and the bed is rather uncomfortable. I love the pool at this property. The families were very friendly. Plus you don't come out smelling of chlorine. We would stay here again. Very convenient to everything.

Over all we had a great time, and even though we weren’t directly on the beach, the beach access was fairly easy. Not having a closet in the main bedroom was somewhat inconvenient. That’s prob the only thing I saw that could be improved. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your condo!

The parking is horrible. Not enough room to turn your car in the covered spaces and not enough extra spaces to park.

This property was everything that it was shown to be. My wife, little boy, and I stayed the week of Memorial Day and had the best time. The beach is a short walk away, the pool was clean and convienant, and the room was located perfectly within walking distance of shops and restaurants. The condo had plenty of room and for us, and had everything we needed. I would say it was probably one of my favorite vacation accommodations that I have stayed in due to the layout of the faculty and the proximity to the beach. I would stay again in the future.

Great newly updated condo with everything you need! Great pool, parking and across the street from the beach. Highly recommend
