10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2026
Great beach view with a very short walk to the beach and pool. Clean and had everything we needed in the kitchen to cook our meals. Very happy with the 2nd floor. Quick to take the stairs and the 1st floor does not have a good view of the ocean. Elevator is a little slow so this being right by the stairs was convenient.

Million dollar view with the quickest beach and pool access. Easy walk up to avoid waiting for the elevator. Plenty of great food options within a mile.

6 / 10Average·Mar 2022
This property when we booked was everything we wanted. However days after paying our final payment we were switched to room 1505 due to a cabinet in bathroom not in on time. This unit was booked already around us too so???? We didn’t want to cancel our Mimi vacation last minute so we kept it. Anyhow 1505 was not up to par. Hangers located all around under tables and floor. Like they didn’t bother to sweep or clean. Bed was fine but fitted sheet was put on upside down. Which was ?????able to say the least. It was updated in bathroom but quality bad. The couch was wrote on and just looked dirty so we placed a sheet over it to just sit on it. I wanted to let anyone know when booking, if switched rooms ? Why . 1505 bad! Would have much rather have stayed in 1202 knowing it had updated items. We won’t stay at property again due to this and it’s just an older property that needs some updating.
